♥️🤍💙 Memorial Day 2026 ♥️🤍💙

On March 13, 1942, the United States Army officially launched its War Dog Program during World War II with the creation of the Army K-9 Corps. Since then, Military Working Dogs have deployed to every major battlefield and continue to serve as integral members of our operations on land, at sea, and in the air.

Today, approximately 1,600 working dogs deploy alongside their human partners in combat zones with our most prestigious military units, along our borders, and throughout the entire world.

For Memorial Day, we celebrate these dogs like EErek.

This May 2026, the U.S. Army honored MWD EErek for his exemplary service, explosive/narcotics detection, and ongoing patrols, celebrating the unbreakable bond between soldiers and their dogs.

It's not uncommon for family members to move their dogs to a grandparent's home when their living situation changes.

This poor dog only had a "lean-to" for shelter. The grandmother did not have the financial means to provide proper housing.

The Animal Care Network stepped in to provide proper shelter, straw, bowls and a tie out for him. We absolutely prefer that dogs live indoors. He is a very energetic puppy that she cannot handle on her own. Hopefully, the actual owner steps up soon. We will continue to monitor the situation. Good job team on making his living conditions a little better.

Good luck today team! Thank you for your dedication.

🎆 2026 Fireworks Safety 🎇

America is turning 250 this year. Fireworks may be even more prevalent this summer...maybe even this holiday weekend. This may be hard for many pets.

To keep pets safe during fireworks, secure them indoors in a quiet, comfortable room with familiar items and white noise to mask sounds. Secure your fence gate.

Keep pets on a leash during walks, ensure they have up-to-date ID tags/microchips, and store fireworks/debris away from them to prevent toxic ingestion.

Essential Safety Measures

⭐️Create a Safe Haven: Choose an interior room with no windows or a secured crate with blankets, toys, and soft music or a TV to drown out noise.

⭐️Keep Indoors: Bring pets inside well before dark to avoid panic-induced escapes.

⭐️Secure the Perimeter: Check fences and close curtains or blinds to hide bright flashes.

⭐️Walk Early: Exercise your pets earlier in the day to avoid the start of festivities.

⭐️Do Not Take Pets to Displays: Leave pets at home rather than bringing them to crowded, loud events.

⭐️Update Identification: Ensure collars have current contact info and that microchips are registered.

Handling Fear and Panic

⭐️Stay Calm: Your behavior influences your pet; act normally to show them there is no danger.

⭐️Distraction: Use treat-filled toys to keep them busy and calm.

⭐️Anxiety Aids: Consider using anxiety vests/shirts or consult a veterinarian for calming aids, such as pheromone diffusers or medications.

⭐️Practice Desensitization: Use recordings of fireworks to desensitize pets to the sound well in advance.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the amazing moms, especially the ones who open their hearts to animals in need. 🐾💐

Whether you're a pet mom, foster hero, or the one who always stops to help a stray, your compassion makes the world safer and kinder for animals who need it most.

Today, we celebrate the love, patience, and second chances you give every day. Because of you, tails wag, purrs return, and lives are saved.

Thank you for being their voice.

This lovely lady stopped by an animal hospital after finding this little gal as a stray. She was severely matted, down to the skin, and did not have a microchip or an ID tag.

Kathleen followed the stray protocol and contacted Animal Control. She was willing to foster the dog and stayed in contact with animal control daily until the stray hold was fulfilled.

When no owner came forth, she returned to the animal hospital to get her the rabies vaccine, in order to have her groomed.

When the unexpected expense of needing to have little Mia vaccinated arose, the Animal Care Network stepped in to make certain she is completely vaccinated and will be providing her spay surgery shortly.

Thanks to our AMAZING donors, Mia will now be living her best life!
