In partnership with

Time sure is flying by, right? We are now in February so we provided a bit of humor for modern love. More importantly, learn who successfully walked 38 dogs at once (goodness, it was not me!). I can’t even imagine walking more than one of Sassy Max because he already has his attorney lined up on speed dial in case the end of his walk doesn’t yield benefits. Crafty dog, isn’t he? Also, work on your chill by taking a page from extremely heavy clouds. Who knew?

Do you have an adorable dog? Of course you do, where is the question. Submit a picture and a little tidbit about your dog that you want the world to know and send it to us - it may just be featured on an upcoming newsletter! If you are interested, have your agent contact our agent (it sounded fancy to say but just email us at [email protected].)

Also, a reminder that while you can still shop wellness any time, our Q1 2025 catalog also has some goodies for you and your dog(s). It will also help you get geared up for the green day coming soon. If you don’t glance to get prepared, are you waiting on a real-life leprechaun to come and do it? And you know the deal - don’t forget to join our Fido Family! Look for details below.

The Sky Is Literally Falling… A Million Pounds at a Time


We’ve all had those days where our brains feel a little foggy (some more than others in my family!), but at least your thoughts don’t weigh millions of pounds. Actual clouds, however? They do.

Yeppers - those fluffy, innocent-looking cotton balls floating above your head are hiding a shocking secret: the average cumulus cloud weighs about 1.1 million pounds (or about 500,000 kg, if you want to sound extra scientific at brunch). That’s the equivalent of 100 elephants, 2,500 grand pianos, or about 200,000 house cats ... woah.

So then how do these massive suckers float? It turns out, while clouds hold all that weight in water droplets, they’re spread out over an enormous area. The droplets are so tiny and dispersed that gravity barely notices. Instead, they hang out in the atmosphere like that one friend who somehow never leaves the party but also never seems to take up space.

Anyone ever tell you to lighten up? If so, remember that you can do it because clouds usually carry a million pounds and they still look effortlessly breezy. (Ok, don't lighten up - whatever you want to do here.) Maybe the clouds can serve more purpose for me on a plane other than thinking of the Care Bears sitting on them looking down at everyone - maybe I can try to remember that even the clouds carry a heavy load yet they still manage to float. It may take a glass of wine some days, but I shall float.

Dog Walking: Now an Extreme Sport, Apparently

You may want to sit down for this one - grab a carpet square and come sit (if that is still a thing?). If you think walking one dog is a challenge (and yes, I do - have you met my dog?!?!) with leashes tangling, sudden sprints after squirrels (mine even goes after the wind), imagine handling 38 dogs at once. How many paws is that - sounds like a lot of stepping. But That’s exactly what Mitchell Rudy from Canada did, setting a Guinness World Record for the most dogs walked simultaneously by an individual in Goesan, South Korea.

If you’re picturing a cartoon-like disaster of leashes tying Rudy up like a human pretzel, let’s clarify: this wasn’t an impromptu dog park free-for-all. The record attempt was meticulously planned with trained dogs, strategic positioning, and the kind of patience that most of us can only dream of.

Still, one has to wonder—did he have a hype speech for the dogs before setting out? Something like:
"Alright team, we’re going to make history. No chasing squirrels. No sniffing every third tree. And for the love of kibble, NO sudden bathroom stops."

I am glad to support his world record by not trying to walk 39 dogs at once. Ahem, I'm sure I could do it but we have to support each other. If you want some tips on training your dog whether on walks or at home, check out our Fido Family newsletter with various topics each week.

The fib is A. Most of the oxygen we breathe comes from the ocean. Around 50–80% of Earth’s oxygen is produced by oceanic phytoplankton, not trees
