After browsing the nominees for this year’s Nose to Nose awards, I had a realization: I read a ton of dog blogs, but I’m still missing out on many amazing ones.

The posts featured in these weekly roundups come from my regular sources such as aggregator sites, Google searches, and social media. Aggregator sites, in particular, can drive varying levels of traffic to blogs. If your blog isn’t listed on popular sites like BlogLovin, Alltop, or Feedly, consider adding it. These platforms can introduce your blog to new audiences (and I might just become one of your readers…).

I strive to read a diverse array of dog blogs, but I know I’m still missing some gems out there.

Now, for the best part—dandelion season is here. Am I the only one who doesn’t mind them?

From the often-overlooked comfort provided by hospice veterinarians to heartwarming tributes to special dogs, here are my favorite dog articles of the week. Fair warning: keep some tissues handy, you might need them.
