Best Dog Food

There’s been a great deal of attention focused upon dog and cat foods lately, especially in light of the pet food recalls. Similarly, we should turn a critical eye towards the hundreds of treats that dogs consume on a regular basis.
Many of the mass-produced treats on the market today contain the leftover cereals and other unsuitable ingredients, which are better for company profits than the long-term health of dogs. Artificial coloring and chemical preservatives are included in most to maintain freshness, as these well-known brands typically spend months stored in warehouses before ultimately being shipped to your local grocery. Upon inspecting their labels, you’ll find many contain wheat flour, soy flour, dextrose, BHA, high fructose corn syrup and garlic. These products are known to be hard for your dog to digest and some can have potentially harmful effects. In fact, garlic can be toxic to dogs.
As pet parents, we know that our companion animals depend solely upon us for their nutritional intake. And since good nutrition is important for our pets to live a long and healthy life, it is important to choose a nutrient-rich treat that can be a part of your pet’s overall diet. To fill this need, HealthyPetNet and Dr. Jane Bicks have created several nutritious treats for your dog. See Page 2

We are right in the middle of summer. Time for family fun like walks in the park. Baseball games for the kids, swimming, cottage and camping. And of course BBQ s.
Some of these will include your dog. So many people are still fighting with their precious pets. And, the bigger the dog, the worse it is because of the sheer strength of the beastie 
1 - When someone comes to your door, do you have to shut your dog away? Or do you have to hold him back, yell at him with the door open?
2 - When you walk, do you feel like you are “water skiing”, the dog being the boat, of course.
3 - When you are scooping, are you trying to grab the poop with one hand, while holding back your 100 pound Shepherd with the other?
4 - Can your kids walk the dog?
5 - Can you have visitors without being jumped and pawed or barked at? As a matter of fact, do your visitors knock on the door and then step back 10 feet before you open it?
There are just so many difficult situations you can get into with an untrained dog. And, the bigger the dog, the more difficult the situation.
Take the time to train your dog. It’s worth it, really! Both for your sake, and the sake of your dog. After all, a well trained dog is also a safer and more secure dog.

The miniature Australian Shepherd was developed by selectively breeding small Australian Shepherds.
Miniature Aussies are rapidly increasing in popularity among those interested in a compact dog with a strong work ethic. They are especially popular in dog agility, and do well in other dog sports including herding, obedience, disc dog, and many other activities.
