DONNA'S COMMENTS

This newsletter will come out on Mondays. Thank you to all who have sent
notes about our first issue. I can see that animal lovers are people lovers
too - very encouraging folks!

Valentine's Day is next Monday. Since this is a day for celebrating love,
why don't you extend your love for your pets to animals that don't have
anyone. Volunteer your time at a local shelter, become a foster home, or
donate blankets and pet food to a shelter or rescue group. Many shelters
have list of things they desperately need, call them and see what you can do
to help.

Have the cat's meow of a week!

SUCCESS STORY

"I had read that BLACK WALNUT worked great in killing PARASITES in humans
and pets. In fact, I knew quite a few people who had used Black Walnut
successfully. The other day while I was watering my African violet I
noticed a bunch of thread-like worms in the water in the base of the dish (I
suppose the eggs in the soil had hatched). I immediately put 4
droppersful of Black Walnut Extract in the dish and waited a few minutes to
see what would happen. The worms slowly stopped moving, and within 20
minutes they were all dead. Wow!" G.R.

BEHAVIORAL/EMOTIONAL ISSUE

NO BARK COLLARS

Innotek's No-Bark Collars deliver a safe, instant message that barking is
off-limits. Controlling your dog's barking has never been safer or easier.
The No-Bark Collar is also safe to use around other animals because the
stimulus can be activated only by the bark of the dog wearing the collar.

PRODUCT FOCUS

BIFIDOPHILUS (90 Capsules) - Rebuilds friendly flora in the bowel, aids
digestion and elimination. It's important to replace beneficial flora after
antibiotic therapy.

Note: We have used herbs and supplements with pets since 1982 and that was
before there was a market for "natural pet products." We've always adapted
to the pet. If you can administer in capsule/tablet form, that's great. If
not, open the capsule or crush the tablet and put it into food. You can
also brew the herbs as a tea and administer by dropperful or in water bowl.
Some of the herbs come in a liquid. Choose a product that will be easy to
use with the pet you are working with.
