Puptimize

This , remember how important the basic fundamentals are. Like "Attention," for example. When your dog is paying attention to you, they're ready to learn what you're teaching them.

That's why the Puptimize app shows you how to get your dog to pay attention to you in just a few fun, quick, easy steps.

We COULD say Puptimize puts the "fun" in fundamental, but that would be a pretty bad pun. So we won't say that (but we DO make training your dog fun and easy).

Our thoughts and prayers go out to everyone suffering from the disastrous effects of Harvey.

And our appreciation goes out to all of the officials and everyday citizens that are not only helping the people, but the many pets that are affected, as well.

Looking for some to kick off the weekend?

Well, here ya' go: Can you guess the breed mix of this adorable dog?

Happy Eclipse Day!

Make sure to keep your eyes and your dog's eyes safe. Remember to not look directly at the eclipse without proper eclipse eye protection.

Memories of Sunday...

Happy Monday :)

Planning to hang out with your best friend this weekend?

We've just come up with a great idea! We'll show a throwback picture from a little while ago...today. Since it's Thursday, we'll call it ! What? We didn't just invent that? Others have...Oh well. We'll still do it anyway. :-)

Today's TBT takes us back to April, when this cute little pup named Atlas found his new Mom and Dad. Congratulations to our rescue partner, Noah's Bark Animal Rescue, for finding another great home for a rescue dog in need.

Happy National Mutt Day!

Yep, today is . It's a great day to remember that there are millions of mixed breed dogs in shelters and rescues at this very moment.

So if you're ready to bring a dog into your home, check out your local rescues. Start with some of our awesome rescue partners, like The Animal Pad, Lucky Pup Rescue SC, Scratchmybelly.org, Second Chance Dog Rescue, San Diego, California, and Vanderpump Dogs.

And then, of course, once you've adopted your dog, make sure to download the free Puptimize app on the App Store! It'll make your life so much easier. :)

Here's looking at you, Archie the Rocknrolla.

It's and today...we're featuring YOU!

We want to thank you for following Puptimize. So have a great weekend, Archie. And tell your parents the same. ;-)

Looks like this little guy may have misunderstood the phrase "hump day."

Either way, we hope you're having a great week so far!
