As a Professional Dog Walker I run into all sorts of situations that require a quick response and a cool head about you. This morning was just such an occasion. I had a coyote tracking us. Knowing the SMART technique I gathered the pups next to me and took a stand, big and bold. This incident is a common one here in San Diego. Too many times pups are snatched from the end of a leash because people are not paying attention to their surroundings. Here are some simple adjustments you can make to keep you and your pets safe:
Together we can be SMART about Coyote Hazing and spare the heartache of loosing another Fur Family member. If you have any questions or would like a one on session practicing coyote hazing give me a call, I'm happy to meet with you to help you build your confidence. You can reach me at 858-603-9925 Since Janurary of this year there has been over 12 Pet Food Recalls. Pets are being put at risk in record numbers. It jas become my mission to share homemade options you can whip up from your own kitchen (and mine) to bring easy alternatives to avoid the heartache and expense from this deadly trend. Over the next three weeks I'll be sharing some easy and nutritious recipes you can make. The three types are Cool, Crunchie and Chewy using your freezer, dehydrator, and fridge. Freezer Organic Dog Treats Using regular ice trays - fill the trays with organic apples, berries, and carrots, pour liquid organic beef or chicken broth and freeze. These cool cube should be used within 3 weeks a d stored in a zip bag in the freezer.
Many of you know that I am a huge advocate for low ingredient, high quality pet foods, preferribly locally sourced.
Here is another Pet Food Recall exemplifying the need for scrutiny on all Pet Food Products. Be choosy! There are many red flags on this noticification disclosure that every pet parent will take pause: The findings show that beef not suitible for human consumption was noted. The ingredients tested found a mixture of meats; Beef, Pork and Equine! Medication contamination was found. If you use any of these three brands, please check the label and contact the manufacturer for instructions on the return policy, http://bit.ly/2mJUOkt Here's hoping this petfood recall notice reaches everyone who bought these brands and your Dogs are o.k. We must be ever vigilant when it comes to the ingredients in your Pet's food! Don't be fooled by the labeling stating 'grain free' or even the type of meat ingredients. Buyer beware is the motto these days for all of us. Studies have proven that our health as well as our Pets is better when eating locally sourced foods. Local can also be a 'loaded' phrase. I'm referring to items within 50-100 miles. We have a great local Pet Food Store dedicated to optimum ingredients for organic nutrition and locally sourced foods for Cats and Dogs. Amy, the owner, has a great selection of products that are chemical free, and locally grown. Visit Wholesome Choice Pet Market at either of the two locations: 4SRanch or Rancho Bernardo. If you would like to be notified on the next Petfood Recall Notification please leave a comment with your email and I'll add you to the list. Woofs & Wags, Kate |
