I am so proud of my home country Canada... and here's why. In the February/March issue of "Animal Wellness Magazine", it states:
" It's official! Last fall, PCRM ( Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine) successfully brought an end to the use of animals in all of Canada's medical schools. Dr. John J. Pippin, PCRM's Senior Medical and Research Advisor said, " We can now say that no students in any of the country's 17 medical schools will need to sacrifice their education or compassion on their way to becoming physicians. |

San Diego is the best city in the country to be a dog walker. Why? Because of the weather of course. 99% of the time it is sunny, warm, and beautiful. San Diego dogs love to walk in typical San Diego weather. They, like us, get very spoiled in San Diego weather.. So what happens with spoiled San Diego dogs when we get rainy days like today? They do not want to go for a walk. As soon as you open the door and they see it is raining they make a beeline back into the house. And forget about trying to put on their raincoats. |

Did you know that pets can get dental disease as easily, or more easily than humans? Did you know that 80% of dogs and 70% of cats show dental disease by age 3? And did you know that, untreated dental disease can lead to tooth loss, periodontal disease and even more serious illnesses? Even death?
It's true and that is why it is so important to ensure that you are taking proper care of your pet's oral health..Dogs and cats can't brush their own teeth. Nor can they choose to eat a diet that promotes health care or tell you when they have a toothache. |

Yesterday I was walking two of my regular dogs who share a combined weight of at least 140 pounds. One of the dogs, who is as sweet as can be with people, is a recent rescue and has some dog reactive issues. When she sees dogs, she pulls very hard on the leash and tries to lunge at them.
As a professional dog walker I can manage a potentially negative situation by crossing the street or walking in another direction to avoid any confrontations. However, when we encounter dogs off leash running out their front doors or from behind unsecured back yards, the situation becomes not only difficult to manage, but downright dangerous for the dogs I am walking, the loose dog, and myself. |
