ribbons: none of these make healthy treats for a curious pup, so keep them tidied away when your dog is on the loose.
    Dogs aren’t happy when their routines change, so try to walk and feed your pet at th same time each day. And don’t forget to hug your dog and give her lots of attention, even when you’re busy!

Dear Reader ,
    In my family, the pets always get Christmas gifts along with the people. I usually give my brother’s cats a fun new toy, and my brother and his family give my dog some yummy treats.
    It’s fun to pick out a present for your pet — but don’t leave it under the tree, or your pet might open it before he’s supposed to!
    Happy Holidays to all my animal friends!
    Yours from the Puppy Place,
    Ellen Miles
