June 2025 Dog & Pet Articles – Oakwell Gundogs Archive

Welcome to the June 2025 roundup. In just one month we covered everything from store pet policies to the science behind a popular supplement. Whether you’re hunting with a gundog, looking after a new puppy, or just trying to pick a safe cat kibble, you’ll find a quick read that helps you make a better choice.

Top Dog Health Articles

We started the month with a look at Walmart’s dog policy in North Carolina. The piece spells out which dogs are welcome, how service animals differ from pets, and simple tips for a smooth shopping trip. Next came a deep‑dive into Wet Puppy Syndrome, a scary condition that can leave pups limp. You’ll learn the common causes, early signs, and what to do if your puppy shows symptoms.

Another hot topic was the buzz around Canine Prime. We asked vets whether they really back the supplement, broke down the ingredients, and pointed out what matters most for a balanced diet. If you’re thinking about a new chew, the article gives you the facts you need.

Some readers wondered if letting a dog sleep in your bed creates separation anxiety. The answer isn’t black‑and‑white. We shared the latest research, explained how bedtime habits affect behavior, and offered practical steps to keep both you and your dog comfortable.

Finally, we tackled the classic problem of dog biting. The guide walks you through step‑by‑step training, highlights common mistakes, and gives real‑world stories that show what works and what doesn’t.

Pet Nutrition & Lifestyle Guides

If you own a cat, you’ll want the dry food ingredient guide. We listed the additives that can harm your feline and suggested simple ways to spot them on the bag. The article also includes quick swaps that keep your cat happy and healthy.

Dog owners looking for a new bed got a full design checklist. We covered size, support, durability, and why the right bed can reduce joint strain. The guide helps you avoid cheap beds that end up on the floor.

Travel lovers received a mini‑guide to the most dog‑friendly city in North Carolina. From dog parks to patio dining, we highlighted why the city stands out and gave tips for a stress‑free road trip.

Pet vaccination schedules were simplified in a new post. We broke down core shots, optional vaccines, and how age and health affect timing. A handy chart lets you track each dose without guesswork.

We also explored “nooking,” the quirky habit where dogs suck or chew soft toys. The article explains why it happens and recommends the best calming toys to keep your furniture safe.

All these pieces share a common goal: give you clear, practical advice without the fluff. Each article is written in plain language, so you can read it on a coffee break and start applying the tips right away. Feel free to browse the list, click on topics that catch your eye, and use the info to improve your pet’s life.
