View	Rescuing Is The Right Way Guest: Organic Works Marketing Most of us feel our pets are part of the family. The greenest choice you can make when it comes to your pet is to “rescue” one from your local shelter, where it might otherwise become one of the 3 to 4 million homeless dogs, cats and rabbits euthanized every year. Your often tax-deductible adoption fee, usually around $50 includes spaying and neutering, as compared to the hundreds of dollars you’d pay a breeder or a pet shop, and for a veterinarian’s surgical fee. more
View	Soothe Your Itchy Dog Guest: Lilly Companion Animal Health For itchy dogs that can’t have topical or oral steroids, bathe them with cool water alone. Cool water causes the blood vessels in the skin to constrict, making it more difficult for the “itchy substances” like histamine to make it to the skin’s surface. Bathing in warm water does just the opposite and can make your already itchy pet more uncomfortable. more
View	Off Property? On Leash! Guest: Lilly Companion Animal Health If you have a dog, follow this simple rule: OFF property, ON leash. Even a dog with a valid I.D. tag should not be allowed to roam outside of your home or yard. It is best for you, your community, and your dog to keep them under control at all times. Also, register them with the county and have them vaccinated for rabies according to local laws. more
View	Collar Your Kitty Guest: Lilly Companion Animal Health Outfit your cat with a breakaway collar and I.D. tag that includes your name, address and telephone number.

View	How To Pick The Perfect Pet Pal & Avoiding Puppy Mills Guest: ASPCA You could be paying a high price for that doggie in the window, especially if you plan on buying one for your family. Many pet stores and Internet vendors across the country are taking advantage of consumers by selling animals bred in “puppy mills,” which are inhumane commercial kennels that raise dogs in cramped, filthy conditions. In an effort to fight back, the ASPCA® (The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals®) is launching a new campaign to raise awareness about the hazardous breeding practices of puppy mills. The ASPCA wants to educate the public on how to find the perfect pet for you and avoid irresponsible breeders. ASPCA Supervisory Special Investigator, Annemarie Lucas, the star of Animal Planet’s award-winning series “Animal Precinct”, tells viewers the importance of fighting against these inhumane breeding practices. more
View	Use Positive Reinforcement Guest: Lilly Companion Animal Health We all like to be praised rather than punished, and the same goes for dogs. Positive reinforcement is an effective training tool that should be used at all times.

Ask your vet for help. more

It will become a great investment because you may avoid common but serious health problems like urinary tract infections. So think about their drink! more
