Do you sew, knit or crochet? I have added a few links here to patterns for dogs. If we are stuck in a lot over the coming winter, maybe some of these would be of interest to you! Please feel free to send a photo if you make something for your pup and I will be glad to show it off! You can also send me links for fun things to make and I will add them here!

 Have fun everyone!

Reilly's Reg'd contract requires that you place insurance on your puppy for the first year of birth. You do receive 6 weeks of trial insurance with Pets Plus Us when you adopt your puppy, and can choose to continue with them or check around with others.
There are many excellent insurance companies and your vet likely has a preferred one they can recommend as well. 
Here are a few links you can check out and decide what best suits your needs.

Small puppies are prone to mishaps especially in their first year. Like toddlers, everything on the floor is something to be chewed and explored. Stuffing pulled from toys, rocks, bones, medical prescriptions tablets that fell on the floor, if it's there it's fair game to your puppy. 
All breeds have something they are pre-disposed to. Eyes issues, gastric issues, hip or bone issues, allergies or skin conditions. Genetic issues may be in a recessive gene unbeknownst to the breeder and can crop up later, teeth and dental issues....all can come at a hefty price to you. 
Protect your little one, your puppy is a family member and needs to have a coverage you can afford. 
I do not endorse one company over another, nor do I get compensation from any company. 

I am now requiring that you place insurance on your puppy for at least the first year of life. I do offer a return/replacement in my contract (limited) and I expect to be contacted if there is some health issue I should know about that I was unaware of when your puppy went home. ​

​In 2018 there was a change made to the purchase plans and policies of the 24 PetWatch Microchips that we use. I did not know of these changes until today. (March 23, 2021)

Prior to 2018, when a microchip was registered through a breeder or a vet, it was an automatic enrolment into a service that let you know if your lost/missing pet was found. This was changed to a paid enrolment and the onus is on the client to enrol their pet. Otherwise you have to struggle through making a report, and making sure the right information is out into the right hands and hope for the best. 

While your pet IS in the database, it must be enrolled into what is called "Lifetime Protection Membership" for a fee which can be paid annually or pay a one-time lifetime fee. 

This puts your pet into a live monitored database, 24-7, and if your pet goes missing and is found and scanned, it goes directly to 24 PetWatch's monitored database. You receive a call immediately. There are a lot of other perks, but THIS is the main one. (at least in my opinion). 

This is the link to the page where you can get more information. Apparently there are other perks involved in this service. I am educating myself as well right now.

2018 was a rough year for me health-wise with the latter part of the year spent in surgery, recuperation and physiotherapy, so I can see how I missed this important piece of information. I have also been told there are vets that are unaware as well. 

Please contact 24 Petwatch and sign up if you own a Reillys puppy/dog. My worst nightmare is that one of my dogs go missing. I am sure it would be yours as well. ~Thank you~
