Hurricane season officially runs from June 1 through the end of November — and preparation can save lives. In this episode of The Dog Gone Positive Way, we talk about what every pet parent and family should do BEFORE a storm is headed their way.

We discuss hurricane preparedness kits for both people and pets, including food, water, medications, crates, leashes, first aid supplies, important paperwork, and emergency planning. We also dive into the unique challenges disabled individuals may face during evacuations and emergencies, including transportation, accessible shelters, backup medical equipment planning, and preparing with a service dog.

Having a plan ahead of time can reduce stress, confusion, and panic when severe weather strikes. Whether you stay, evacuate, or need community shelter assistance, this episode is about helping you think ahead and protect the people and animals you love most.

Because preparedness matters — for every member of the family.

What if the products being used to control rats are actually putting pets, wildlife, and even entire ecosystems at risk?

In Part 1 of this episode of The Dog Gone Positive Way, Maria speaks with David Dorfman about a father-son business focused on a safer, non-toxic approach to rodent control using a pheromone-based deterrent.

They discuss:

• The surprising similarities between what attracts dogs and rodents
• The alarming rise in rat populations over the last decade
• The dangers rat poison poses to dogs, cats, wildlife, and birds of prey
