A NOTE FROM RANDAL
******************
Hi Everyone,
Hope you are having a great Easter day. We certainly have!
The more I am around pets and their associated ailments I have realized more
and more that our companions sicknesses are paralleling most of our human
ailments. In my opinion, the foods they are eating are very similar to what
most Americans consume. Many years back we made the choice to feed our pets
natural high quality foods. The change has made their lifes much more of a
quality adventure. All of our pets that have passed have had long and
fulfilling lives too. Let me encourage you to read this article on what is
in your pet's food.

PET SHARK BIDS FAREWELL TO PLEASANTON
You could call her the latest piece of a new puzzle at the Monterey Bay
Aquarium.
Jigsaw the shark was raised in a Pleasanton family's backyard, but now she
will be part of the aquarium's new shark exhibit, slated to open next
spring.
Jigsaw is a whitetip reef shark that the family rescued after she was caught
in a net. They kept her in a 1500-gallon saltwater tank. The family grew
attached, but they say it's the right thing to do to send Jigsaw to
Monterey.

HEART TROUBLE
"My 16 year old dog, a Snozer, needed some heart support shortly after
getting a good bill of health from the vet. I put her on Omaga 3 Fish Oil.
She has completely stopped coughing. I hope you will tell other people. I
was so very glad to find out that the Omaga 3 Fish Oil is good for the
heart. She would not have lived this long. I just wish I had known about
it before our 13 year old dog died of heart failure. I hope my story will
help some other pet owner keep their pet alive longer." Peggy McNabb

OBSESSIVE COMPULSIVE DISORDERS
Why they do the things they do ... over and over and over again.
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder in dogs, also called OCD, is a behavior that
seems out of context, odd, and directed towards objects, be it the dog
himself, or an inanimate object such as a food dish, or wheeled things like
cars, bikes, or strollers.
OCD often manifests itself in dogs who are stressed, anxius, or bored, and
can be a very maddening experience for the owner. These behaviors can often
result in destruction of items, yards, angry neighbours, and seemingly
uncontrollable aggression. Obsessive digging, continuous biting at their own
feet, barking at nothing, attacking inanimate objects, all are symptoms of
OCD.

CAT TRAINING/BEHAVIORAL HELP
***************************
EXCESSIVE LICKING
Cats lick to keep themselves clean, to rid themselves of varmints like
fleas, to cool themselves, to absorb Vitamin D, and to release stress. If a
cat‚s licking is the symptom of a health problem or if the licking is
causing a health problem, then kitty must be taken to a veterinarian soon!
There are several medical reasons for excessive licking. It could be a
neuropathy problem. For example, a nerve is receiving a signal which tells
the cat to lick. It could be encephalitis, a brain perception disorder, a
soft tissue or bone inflammation problem, or an allergic skin disease. A cat
that licks odd things such as window panes, walls, or cement walks may be
anemic which is a symptom of a disease such as feline leukemia. If you
suspect a medical problem, see your veterinarian immediately.
Cats lick themselves when they are infested with parasites such as fleas. An
occasional bath with a flea shampoo will kill the fleas, as well as remove
dander (dried saliva) that causes human allergies. Regular grooming,
however, with a flea comb is enough to control the flea problem.
An allergic reaction to inhaled allergens can also cause excessive licking.

HARD BUMP ON DOG
"I noticed a hard bump on the side of my dog, Tasha, and was concerned. I
decided to try a natural approach and began using TEA TREE OIL four (4)
times a day. I also added BLACK OINTMENT beginning the next evening. I
applied that four (4) times a day also. I noticed it was shriking in a
couple of days. ONE WEEK LATER, Tasha's bump is completely gone...zappo....it
is gone! No trace of it. Great news!" Margot

GOOD NEWS PET STORY
*******************
COMMENTS FROM ONE OF OUR FLINT RIVER RANCH CUSTOMERS
Wow, that was quick...48 hours for my first shipment. My six dogs love the
food. Two of them left their raw chicken wings to eat the kibble first! It
smelled so good I even tried it.
I've been working my way through "the whole dog journal's" good food
list.
I think I'm about half way and yours has been the most popular so far. I
like getting the food in smaller bags too. - MPL
