[NAME],
Hello from DallasDogLife!
May has been a very busy month at DDL headquarters and judging by the number of new entries in the DallasDogLife.com Calendar of Events, it's been a busy month for all of you too! This week has many dog-friendly events for you and your fur-kids to attend, so try to get out to support our local businesses and rescues who do their best to create a fun and friendly environment for us and our canine companions. Be sure to pack some extra bottled water for any long excursions outdoors; the weather is heating up and our pets will need the additional hydration.
Also, this is National Dog Bite Prevention Week, which aims to reduce the 4.5 million (yes, MILLION) dog bites that occur in the U.S. every year. Be sure to check out the DallasDogLife.com Facebook Fan Page every day this week for a new tip to prevent dog bites, especially in children.
