Dr. Cathy shares some great news about Casey.

Really.  I’m not easily impressed with much of anything related to pets.  Always have my doubts and my questions.  Well, the good news is, I’m impressed with diatomaceous earth.

Meet Bob and Kathie Brehon of Brehon's Pet Supply.

Nature's Variety has expanded its voluntary recall of Chicken Formula Raw Frozen Diets for dogs and cats to include the "Best If Used By" dates of 10/29/10 and 11/9/10 because these products may be contaminated with Salmonella. 

Do some pet food commercials make you wonder what in the world the company was thinking?  Dancing turkeys and 'optimal pooping'?  Is someone doing illegal drugs?

Three studies show that dogs fed fish oil (high omega-3 fatty acid) improved in mobility and showed less pain.  Believers of the power of fish oil (myself included) are not surprised, but at least now we have clinical proof. 

Casey Update 3/4/10.

The proposed Animal Bill of Rights has made it through round one of the Ideas for Change in America competition sponsored by the Obama Administration.  Although it’s a long shot, this proposed bill could prevent pets from being treated as insignificant as coffee tables should/when another recall occurs.  It needs your votes. 

Not that they told us much, but the Chinese have released some information on the long term effects of melamine in children who consumed tainted formula. 

It’s almost as if Margaret Hamburg and her FDA have a secret Naughty and Nice list.  Those on the Naughty List get slammed by the FDA for violations of the Food Drug and Cosmetic Act.  Those on the Nice List get special privileges TO VIOLATE the Food Drug and Cosmetic Act.  Pet Food is on the Nice List. 

Yes, they are at it again.  This time it’s GMO alfalfa, a health promoting ingredient found in many pet foods.  Today is the last day to tell the USDA to Stop Monsanto.

Great update on Casey's progress.

Suddenly your dog or cat refuses to eat, quickly becomes sick.  An emergency visit to your Vet is required.  The shocking cost of what a pet food could cost you (and this is just the beginning). 

A recent discovery of fleas on my pets sent me searching for safe treatments.  What I discovered are several believed to be quality resources for pet owners.

The new pet food on the block, RedMoon Pet Food, offers pet owners a means to customize their dog or cat’s food; sort of.

March 2010 Petsumer Report reviews Blue Seal Pet Foods, 11 cat foods, 19 dog foods; NutriLife Pet Food, 3 dog food reviews; Red Moon Pet Foods, 4 dog food reviews, 1 cat food review.

A new process developed by Stella & Chewy’s Pet Food kills pathogens like salmonella without heat or irradiation. 

The latest update on Casey. 

DVM360.com recently reported on the most common clinical conditions in dogs and cats in 2009; as released by Veterinary Pet Insurance.  It’s shocking to see how many of these conditions could be related to pet food.

In three weeks everyone will learn about our wonderful gift.  Sadly the names of dead pets and pets that remain ill keep coming in.
