Heart Picture
In your lifetime, try to be the person your pet thinks you are.

There are two means of refuge from the miseries of life: music and cats. - Albert Schweitzer

One reason a dog can be such a comfort when you're feeling blue is that he doesn't try to find out why.-Unknown

I care not for a man's religion whose dog and cat are not the better for it. - Abraham Lincoln

"Dogs need to sniff the ground; it's how they keep abreast of current events. The ground is a giant dog newspaper, containing all kinds of late-breaking dog news items, which, if they are especially urgent, are often continued into the next yard." Dave Barry

A Note From Randal
******************

Hi Everyone,

Hope your summer is going well! Won’t be long and we will be seeing Fall coming around the corner. We have been busy here in Virginia, feeding all of our plants with a dry plant food. Today we received a good rain so that will help them too. Hope your area of the country is not getting too hot this summer.

As always, we appreciate all you do to tell others about our sites and ezines.

Until next time,

Randal

Sweetener Xylitol Can Be Toxic To Dogs

Tele is a 7-month-old Golden Retriever who loves treats. So, when 2-year-old Jordan started feeding her mints, she loved it.

"I was standing right there as my 2-year-old is handing one mint for him, one mint for me type of game and it was literally six mints later that we started seeing signs," said Lindsey Davis, Jordan's mom. Within 15 minutes of eating six mints, Tele was having seizures and vomiting.

A frantic call to Animal Poison Control revealed that Tele was being poisoned by Xylitol. "It is an artificial sweetener that is in sugarless chewing gums and mints and some household baking products," said Kelly. "It is life threatening to dogs. They can die very quickly."

Still Vaccinating Your Pet Every Year? Not Necessary!

Vaccinations have saved many pets' lives over the years, but they aren't without risk. Now, with new research showing that immunity may last longer than once thought, veterinary experts say it's safer to decrease the frequency of most shots that typically have been given every year.

Side effects from vaccinations range from mild itching and swelling to anaphylactic shock leading to death. Cats may develop vaccine sarcomas, which are cancers that develop at the site of the injection. And dogs may develop certain autoimmune diseases.

Diagnose Your Cat or Dog

The Family Pet Services site has a program to diagnose pet health problems. Make a few selections including the symptoms your dog or cat is experiencing and get a diagnose. We do recommend common sense if your pet is having some serious health symptoms.

There's also a discussion forum message board. A way for you to post your pet health questions for other visitors to read and answer.

 

Support Bones and Joints For Your Pet

As with people, animals show signs of aging also. The old saying is "A pound of prevention is worth a pound of cure" but young or already old, benefit from nutritional support of the structural system, especially breeds that have a tendency to these kinds of problems.

Find some support for your pet's structural system here:
