Springtime is our favorite time of year. The days are getting longer, the weather is getting warmer, and many flowers are blooming. It’s a great time to spend more outside and enjoy the fresh air with our furry best friends.

Koru Bear and KENZO are sharing dog care tips to keep in mind this Spring from their Pup Preparation Box for Spring from BabbleBoxx.

8 Dog Care Tips for Spring

1. Schedule A Vet Visit

Just like people, dogs need regular vet visits. Dogs age faster than humans, so missing even one yearly appointment could be like you not visiting your doctor for over 5 years.

Schedule a Spring check-up to ensure your dog is in good health. Also, a good time to ask your vet questions on how to better care for your dog. Both KB and KENZO had their Spring vet check-ups.

2. Keep Pest Away

The most prevalent seasons for fleas and ticks are Spring and Summer; May through September. It is important that you have a preventative plan to protect your dog from fleas and ticks.

Natural Care+ Flea & Ticks

Using plant-based products from Natural Care+ is a way to protect your dog from fleas and ticks and getting serious diseases. Natural Care+ combats fleas and ticks by using plant-based ingredients, such as peppermint oil and eugenol (from clove plants).

Natural Care+ Flea & Tick Wipes

When used as directed, these wipes are convenient way to safely and effectively kill fleas, flea eggs, ticks, and mosquitoes too by contact. For dogs that dislike baths, these anytime flea and ticks wipes are quick and easy solution. Also, these ultra-soft wipes allow for targeted application, particularly to sensitive areas, such as around your dog’s ears.

Natural Care+ Flea & Tick Leave-in Foam

When use as directed, this no-rinse gentle foam safely and effectively kill fleas, flea eggs, ticks, and mosquitoes too by contact. This bath-free flea, tick, and mosquito protection is quick and easy to apply especially between toes, behind ears, underarms, and base of the tail.

3. Refreshing Bath

KB always finds stinky places fun to roll on. Since KB is not a big fan of baths and with his sensitive skin, I make sure he experienced an enjoyable, relaxing, and soothing bath.

I’m always on the lookout for good dog shampoo. From my recent research, I read that activated charcoal neutralizes odors, including pet odor.

I am so glad to discover Natural Care+ Activated Charcoal Odor Neutralizing Dog Shampoo which helps eliminate hard-to-remove dirt, grime, and odors. Also, this deep cleansing dog shampoo is formulated with green tea leaf and aloe vera which helps rehydrates and soothe your dog’s irritated skin.

4. Stay Active

KB and KENZO are active golden retrievers. They love to go on long walks, run, play fetch, and go swimming. KB is aging and experiences discomfort after long fun plays. To ease him, I provide daily supplements.

Natural Care+ Aches-PLUS Chewables

This aspirin-free Natural Care+ Aches-PLUS Chewables provides holistic support for muscles and joints. It is formulated with Pineapple Bromelain, White Willow Bark, and Yucca Root which naturally help ease dog discomfort caused by exercise.

5. Dog Toys Spring Cleaning

Springtime is a great time to clean wash or get rid of any dirty, and broken toys. Definitely, KB and KENZO won’t mind getting new fun toys; specifically, I got rid of some toys, like their Ultimate Duck dog toy from Multipet.

Multipet Ice Cream Truck and Pacifier Pals Dog Toys

MultiPet Ice Cream Truck

This adorable mini MultiPet Ice Cream Truck latex dog toy is about 6.5” and is suitable for dogs that enjoy picking up a toy in their mouth. It has a squeaker that generates a high-pitched sound which KENZO loves!

MultiPet Pacifier Pals

Both KB and KENZO love toys with different sounds and textures. This MultiPet Pacifier Pal Duck dog toy kept them engaged, active, and excited during playtime.

This toy has an interesting design; a latex pacifier squeaks and is attached to an adorable plush duck with a crinkle in the body and a squeaker in the head. Pacifier Pal Duck dog toy is pawfect for dogs that like to play toss, fetch, cuddle or play gently.

Monitor Your Dog When Playing With A Toy

Dog Parents Reminder! Always supervise your dog when playing with toys, especially a new toy. Do not allow your dog to continue playing with a broken or damaged toy. Discard immediately when a toy is worn. There is no indestructible dog toy.

6. Pick Up Your Dog’s Poop

Be a responsible dog owner and always pick up after your dog. Dog waste is toxic and contains bacteria, viruses, parasites, and other harmful components which can affect other dogs’ health and pollute the water system.
