** A NOTE FROM DONNA **

**Are you considering a puppy as a gift for Christmas?**

Christmas Day is not always the best time to bring a newcomer into your
household. The holidays tend to be a very hectic, crazy time. Days and
nights are spent entertaining family and friends, shopping, cooking and
enjoying the sites and sounds of the holiday season. There is very little
time to devote to the needs of a young pup. There are times when a puppy
is a great gift idea. Read more here:

**Have Any Snow Globes Sitting Around? Toxic to Pets**

We know that antifreeze is deadly for our pets. Just a few
licks of the good-tasting liquid can be fatal to a dog or cat.
Did you know what's inside those snow globes? The same
thing: ethylene glycol. Be careful and keep your pet safe!

Have a good one!

** HEALTH/HERBAL INFO **

PET WITH NO ENERGY

If your pet doesn't have the same energy it once did, you may be concerned.
Maybe it's middle age and they just have lot their zest for life. The vet
says that "everything is fine," but you just think they could feel better.

#1 - Make sure you're feeding quality food - real food!
Most pet foods do not have real food in them. Read more:

#2 - Maybe they just need some supplemental help with a vitamin/mineral
formula for pets: http://www.theherbsplace.com/nsppet.html

#3 - If your pet isn't digesting its food well, it's not going to get the
energy from it. You might consider enzymes to help the digestion and other
life processes. They are truly key to good health. We use Proactazyme:

#4 - If you're doing all of that and you just don't see that zest in your
pet, you may want to add some bee pollen or spirulina to the food. Don't
forget that exercise is also needed to keep the body energized and feeling
good. Play with your pet and take it on walks if it's a dog. They have
emotional needs and they may simply be bored or depressed.

** SUCCESS STORY **

DEWORMING

"I'm a licensed nurse and have been interested in herbs for about
4 years. We have 70-80 goats and I've found that the chemical products are
too harsh and don't really solve any problems. I've been using herbal
dewormers (wormwood, tarragon, thyme, and BLACK WALNUT) and have done
parasite counts before and after treatment with both drugs and the herbs,
and I'm much more satisfied with the herbal results." Julie

PANCREATITIS IN CATS

Sometimes cats are treated for inflammatory bowel when it could be
pancreatitis. If your cat is vomiting, losing weight, and seems lethargic,
you might want to read this article.
