Remember the story about the dog that got into the Gorilla Glue and had
stomach surgery to remove a ball the size of two grapefruits? Well, here's
a link with the story and also photos! Beware of this stuff if you've got
animals around ... and that goes for other glues as well.

Winter isn't here yet according to the calendar, but many areas of our
country are plenty cold. Many dogs love to frolic in the snow, but there
are some things caring owners should know before stepping out into the
winter wonderland with their dogs. There's precautions to take for cats
also, so learn more for the benefit of your pets:

** HEALTH/HERBAL INFO **
ARE PETS OVER-VACCINATED?
All vaccines are supposed to be given only to healthy animals. That is so
stated in the package inserts. If an animal is sick, it is not supposed to
be vaccinated. That is why vets are supposed to give an examination before
giving the vaccination. Giving a vaccination to a sick animal is
malpractice. The vaccine is only licensed for use in healthy animals. But
how do you define healthy? If an animal is being treated by the vet for a
problem, that is prima facie evidence that the animal is not healthy. If the
vet insists the animal is healthy enough, but you think it is not, remind
the vet that he is giving the vaccine off license, and that he and he alone
is responsible for any problems that arise from the vaccination, as the
manufacturer does not need to stand by a product that is used off license.

** SUCCESS STORY **
CHEWING & HYPERACTIVITY
"Something I found to be very helpful for chewing and hyperactivity is
wheat
germ. I give my dog 2 tablespoons of wheat germ a day and he calms right
down. It works like a charm. Thought your readers might appreciate a
little relief from that hyperactivity and chewing." :o) Mary Schumpf

** DO YOU KNOW WHAT YOUR PET IS EATING? **
Many pet owners are discovering the horror of what
is actually in the pet foods they buy --- even the natural
ones. What our pets eat makes a big difference in their
health and your emotions of seeing them suffer. Good
food takes away many common health problems that
people are paying a lot of vet bills to solve, such as,
skin allergies, dry coat, lack of energy, constant fleas
and other parasites. Good food pays for itself in lower
vet bills and the animals eats (and poops) less.

** BEHAVIORAL/EMOTIONAL TIP **
PET TRAINING: FAST, CHEAP OR GOOD
According to recent studies, 75% of animals surrendered
to animal shelters are taken there because of unacceptable
behavior. Many pet owners realize the necessity of adding
behavioral structure to their pets' lives. Merely deciding to
provide your pet with training often requires more than brief
look through the yellow pages. To give your animal adequate
training you must be an informed consumer.
