Calling all dog moms and cat daddies. Pet Haven, Inc. of MN and Surly Brewing are teaming up again this year to immortalize your best friend on a limited edition can of '52 Rescue Brew. Last year’s event saw hundreds of submissions and thousands of votes. Plus every $1 vote goes to support Pet Haven’s Mission and Phoenix Fund’s Emergency Vet Care Initiative.

Here’s how it works: The dog or cat who captures the most votes will have their names and images featured on Surly’s limited edition Rescue Brew Pilsner, released on September 7th.

The spokesmodels will also have a chance to accept their award, take a bow, and mingle with their adoring fans at the Rescue Brew release party at Surly Brewing on Saturday, September 7th.

4 vet-approved dog treat recipes anyone can make

Store-bought dog treats are often times junk food in the canine world: rapid, easy, and sure to get the pleasure centers in your pup’s brain lighting up like a christmas tree! The main downside, from my perspective as a veterinarian, is a substantial one.

In nearly all cases, commercially available treats are exceedingly unhealthy and lack good, wholesome nutritional value. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if dog snacks not only made tails wag and lips smack, but could also improve the health and wellbeing of pupkind?

So put on your chef’s hat and pull out your apron because it’s time to get cooking some simple and delicious vet-approved homemade dog treats.
