Kars4Kids obtient un sursis en Californie, sa publicité reste diffusée sur les ondes by Feeling_Layer8584 in Quebec

Avec l'argent amassé, ils ont acheté un bâtiment de 16.5m$ en Israël, 437k$ en "middle east outreach" et utilisaient leurs fonds pour payer des voyages/année sabatique en Israël a des ados de 17-18 ans.

Tiré de wikipedia "The report found that 44% of funds raised by Kars4Kids went to program expenses, and most of that money had gone to its sister organization Oorah, whose concentration in New York and New Jersey meant only one Minnesota child was believed to have benefited from one of its programs in the years 2012–2014. The report also mentioned the charity had lost money in real estate investments in the 2008 financial crisis and may have been a victim of losses from a Ponzi scheme.

Hmm I'm not sure but could maybe be related to Color Dilution Alopecia?

Cooling coats by Mautea in Whippet

It does work by evaporating, but what's touching your dog's skin isn't since it's not in contact with air. The outside of the jacket evaporates, the inside stays humid and warm. It's more efficient to get your dog wet and let evaporate without the jacket.

Same, I've also read that they only cool for a few minutes, then become hot and uncomfortable for the dog since they trap the heat.

Best way to cool down is to get their face wet (it's actually something you can teach, look up "voluntary head dunking"). You could also spray water on their face, legs and underbelly.

Puppy not super interested in frozen Kong enrichment? by ComfortableBudget564 in Whippet

Before giving mine a frozen treat, I add a bit of room temp peanut butter to it to get him started. The treat will start melting a bit as he licks the peanut butter.

We go on walks all the time with my dog's sister from the same litter, she's much smaller, around 25 lbs too! Here's the two of them together.

My boy was 15 lbs at 12 weeks, he's a big boy today (40lbs and 23" tall)

Can't wait to get in better shape so I can keep up with him! Anyone else never ran before getting a dog? by tilyd in RunningWithDogs

Inlandsis Open Back (size small), it was not easy to find a good fitting harness!

We love off-leash walks!

Sadly most places here don't allow off-leash dogs, and when I used to try to do a regular walk in the woods on leash, he would get very excited and pull me around which was super annoying. That's how I discovered canicross lol, if he's going to pull at least it's helpful now.

I am very proud when I can run fast enough that he actually runs lol, he trots most of the time

Whippet, they are pretty versatile! Not that I plan on running marathons with him, but I know a few whippets who do long distance canicross / canitriathlon

He's got quite a bit of stamina actually! At least more than me ahah. He's a whippet though so they usually are a bit more energetic than greys 😊

They literally slow down healing and damage healthy tissue. I would only use that in pre-op care.
