Help your dog beat the back-to-school blues: Tips to reduce stress

The school bells are starting to ring again all over the world.

And the dogs are unhappily home alone.

Dogs love routine, and they love their families. If they live in a house where kids are home for the summer, they've probably spent the days following the kids around, playing with them, getting lots of love, stealing their fallen snacks, or maybe just laying with them. But they're still there.

And if there are teachers in the home, the separation is worse!

Happy birthday Snoopy! 5 things you didn't know about Charlie Brown's beagle

The most famous beagle around is celebrating his birthday today!

Snoopy first appeared in an Oct. 4, 1950 Peanuts comic strip. Design-wise, he was not quite the beagle we know and love today. The series first established Snoopy's birthday in 1968.

So yeah, he's an old dog. But he is always learning new tricks!

The weather beagle: Griffey helps keep Missouri informed

(Not-so) Little known secret about me: I work at a news station in Orlando.


One time I brought Lulu to work. I thought it'd be cool for Lulu, and I harbored secret (ok, not-so-secret) aspirations of Lulu becoming our "news hound."

After the flood: Keeping your pets safe

Much of the Tampa area has been under water! Check out the latest story from Bay News 9.

It rain for over two weeks non-stop. Many neighborhoods are flooded. The water is starting to recede, but you may still find places a bit waterlogged. And with snakes and even gators found all over the place, it's important to be safe when you go outside and when your pets go out.

REVIEW: Get cool pups with Portacool

DISCLAIMER: Portacool provided the unit to be reviewed.

The calendar may say August. But summer doesn't end just because the kids may be getting ready to go back to school. And the heat doesn't end in the South just because he calendar changes. Keeping cool is still important, especially for your pet.
Portacool makes portable cooling units. Yup, you heard right! This big black box is like a giant air conditioner on wheels, (except it's not, it's an evaporative cooling unit. Not the same) and it can keep you and your pets quite cool outside.
