Snake alert: What to do if your pet is bitten
Spring has sprung, but flowers may not be the only things popping up in your yard. This also is the season when snakes come out of hibernation.
The Exhausted Dad: When you don’t move the headstones
Kids are always listening. My 9-year-old daughter, it must be said, is turning into one of the cooler people I know. We enjoy the same music (Hooptown 101!), and her contrarian tendencies make her a true Wild Card in most situations. If she disagrees with me about anything, she usually just replies “NOPE!” and I’m only left to guess as to why I’m so wrong.
How to help your cat breathe easy with feline asthma
Spring is often described as a time of renewal and beauty, with flowers blooming and trees budding. However, spring flowers and budding trees also cause higher pollen counts, and for those with asthma, higher pollen counts can bring a greater risk of an asthma attack.
The Exhausted Dad: Election Day heartbreak

FAST FIVE: Branigan Carhart: She'd plant that
Meet Branigan Carhart, a true North Idaho local. Branigan was born in Coeur d’Alene in 1987 and grew up in Sandpoint with her family. Just over 10 years ago she moved back to the Coeur d'Alene area with her daughter and purchased her first home in Post Falls. Branigan is the true definition of a go-getter. As she is raising her 17-year-old daughter solo, she has maintained her full-time position with a large local flooring company, works part time for her family’s business and she still seems to find time to run a small pop-up plant stand called ID Plant That and she continues to be a part of as many local events as possible.
