Woof! Welcome to Canine Care Central!

Hi there! My name is Zack Keithy, the Chief Editor of the site, and together with a group of 4 other like-minded friends, we operate and manage this dedicated dog blog for dog owners to find useful, actionable, and trustworthy content.

How Did We Get Started?
Between the 5 of us, we have 6 different dogs in our families:

- Vizsla
- Golden retriever

We absolutely adore them and are constantly in search of the best information to be the best dog parent.
