Do You Have A Pet That Hates The Vet?

• Skip your pet’s meal before the vet visit.

A hungry pet can often be distracted with yummy treats.

• Leave your cat’s carrier out at home. Feeding or giving treats in the carrier can make it feel like a safe place to be.

• Bring your pet in to get treats when no procedures are needed. www.nansemondvet.com | (757) 539-6371

OUR HOURS: Mon. - Fri. 8 a.m. - 6 p.m. | Sat. 8 a.m. - 1 p.m.

Mutt Strut back again

BY RACHEL WARTIAN INTERN

Calling all pets and their humans: the Suffolk Humane Society is hosting its 11th annual Mutt Strut Festival from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sept. 15.

There will be numerous events for pets to participate in throughout the day. Pawsitive Attitude will be present with dog agility courses to promote healthy activity for pets.

Dogs can compete in a Frosty Paws ice-cream eating contest. The first three dogs to finish all their ice cream will win first-, second- and thirdplace medals. Afterward, a talent contest will take

place for all pets to show their stuff.

Throughout the entire festival, pets will have a chance to go through a lure course. There will also be an area open for dogs to play in, as well as one for human children. A silent auction will be going on during the festival to help raise money for the shelter. The Deloreans band will also be playing live music during the event.

It would not be a true festival without food.

Amicis Pizza Cafe will be there with The Catering Place to serve lunch. Ice cream and shaved ice will also be for sale from Snow Bros.
