Special Announcement:
We will be discontinuing our VIPB Adoption Assistance Program effective June 30, 2026 so we have more time to help the dogs already in Montana's overcrowded shelters.

This program will be replaced with a Do it Yourself rehoming platform. The program will instruct owners how to safely re-home their dogs themselves using methods we've developed over the years.

It's important that owners are accountable for their own pets. Too often we spend countless hours networking other people's dogs and they don't even share the post to their own page.

We want to get back to our roots and help the local shelter dogs. Watch for our "Meet the Locals" posts where we showcase adoptables from every shelter throughout Montana daily.

Please remember to support your local shelters! They are overflowing. And if you can avoid rehoming your dog during the current Homeless Pet Crisis, please make every effort to do so!

It is believed there may be a harmful blue green algae bloom at the Golf Course Pond. In Worland Wy. These blooms are dangerous for anyone that may encounter them especially your pets. Pet ingestion of the algae from swallowing the water to licking their fur with the algae on it can be fatally toxic for pets. The best recommendation is avoiding any water in its entirety that has or may have a blue green algae bloom. If you suspect your pet may have come in contact with a blue green algae please seek veterinary care or call the Pet Poison Helpline 800-213-6680 immediately. Have fun this summer and be safe!!

Update: It seems Tru has picked his new home

Tru, is looking for a very special pefect home, he is 3 yrs old, very loved by many. He comes from the best home, ever!! His daddy, has passed away, very unexpectedly. TRU, is grieving tremendously, and is very lost, he will need a home with patience, time and understanding... and yes, I will be very picky in finding that for him, this boy is very close to my heart.. He loves his play group, (however is overwhelmed)and his groomer very much, he is used to daily walks, he loves music, his daddy played guitar for him alot. TRU really was his daddy's universe. We arent looking for anyone that sees dollar signs, when they look at him, he is nuetered... he is papered but he wont come with them, they will stay in his file... and of course will come back to me, if anything should happen, thats non-negotiable.. I cannot express, how important Tru, is to me and multiple other people.. Tru's constant in life is gone, he may need an only dog home, with play groups at times, he needs routine, more then anything with someone who can be a great leader that he can learn to trust,

Eggs might be the most underutilized food in your dog’s diet.

Not because they’re unavailable.
Not because they lack value.

But because most people don’t actually understand what they’re working with.

Eggs are not a “nice addition.”
They are one of the most biologically complete foods you can include in a canine diet...
and one of the few whole foods that can materially elevate a formulation when used correctly.

🥚They are the reference standard for protein quality, historically used as a benchmark in biological value (BV) scoring.

But protein is only one piece.

A whole egg delivers a dense package of highly bioavailable nutrients that are often unstable, underfed, or poorly utilized in modern feeding approaches:

YOLK (the metabolic driver) 👇:

✔️ Choline → critical for liver function, fat metabolism, and cellular integrity

✔️ Vitamin A → vision, immune regulation, epithelial health

✔️ Vitamin D → calcium balance and immune function

✔️ Vitamin E → antioxidant protection, particularly important in diets higher in polyunsaturated fats

✔️ Vitamin K → essential for proper clotting and metabolic processes

✔️ Essential fatty acids → primarily linoleic acid (with omega-3 content varying based on sourcing)

✔️ Trace minerals → rich in selenium (with small amounts of iodine depending on feed and sourcing)

WHITE (the structural protein source)👇:

✔️ Highly digestible, complete protein

✔️ Rich in essential amino acids required for tissue repair, enzyme production, and muscle maintenance

Now...this is where most of the confusion happens:

Raw egg whites contain avidin, a protein that binds biotin.

But context matters.

Avidin becomes a concern when raw egg whites are fed in isolation without the yolk, or in disproportionate amounts over time.

Why❓️

Because the yolk naturally contains biotin, largely compensating for this interaction when the whole egg is fed in typical amounts.

So this isn’t a “raw vs cooked” debate. It’s a usage issue.

Raw eggs:
▪️ Maintain native protein structure
▪️ Preserves certain enzymes
▪️ Appropriate when feeding the whole egg

Cooked eggs:
▪️ Denature avidin (eliminating the biotin-binding concern)
▪️ Improve biotin availability
▪️ May enhance digestibility for some dogs

Both are valid tools if you understand why you’re using them.

Where most diets fall short isn’t in whether eggs are included.

It’s in how they’re used:

⚠️ Feeding only whites → removes critical nutrients and creates imbalance
⚠️ Using eggs occasionally instead of strategically
⚠️ Ignoring their contribution to total fat and protein intake
⚠️ Treating them as a topper instead of a functional component

Eggs are not a filler.
They are a formulation tool.

And when you understand their full nutritional leverage, they stop being optional...
and start becoming intentional.

How are you currently feeding eggs❓️ Raw, cooked, or not at all❓️

We are happy to serve dogs and cats. Puppies and kittens must be at least 6 weeks to have surgery. Vaccines and microchips are also available.

There will also be a vaccine clinic at Black Coal Senior Center on April 24th from 1-6pm & April 25th from 10am-3pm.
All services will be provided free of charge.

There IS a missing link here ➡️Frustration

Yet we’re still so laser focused on the actual reaction.
The barks, the lunges, the spins.
The behaviour that makes us wish the earth would just open and swallow us up when others are around.

Frustrated dogs can tumble into reacting very, very quickly.
Frustration IS a major driver of unwanted behaviour.

Imagine it for a minute.

You want to get somewhere and you’re prevented.
You want to get closer to something interesting, but can’t.
You’re trying to have some fun, and you’re stopped.

Look, I do get it.
Some dogs are an absolute challenge, especially reactive dogs.

But what if that frustration is the actual starting point?

Can you trust them more in certain areas?
Give them more choice and agency?

Frustration is often reduced by giving them more appropriate choices.
Yet we hold on tighter because we feel we have to.

Living with a reactive dog can be scary.
So we add safety. We add rules.
But are we taking away too much and causing more of what tips them into reacting?

What if that behaviour is, at least in part, shaped by how much control we’re actually trying to grasp onto?
