Recalls? Again??

Recalls? Again??

Dogswell issued a voluntary recall late Friday for its Catswell Brand VitaKitty Chicken Breast with Flaxseed and Vitamins treats because of potential contamination with high levels of propylene gylcol. High levels of propylene glycol in the treats could result in serious in serious injury to cats, according to the FDA. 

The FDA has warned about treats made in China, which have been cited in more than 1,800 reports of illnesses and deaths in the United States. 

Must keep an eye for these things...

Lost in NYC?


Lost in NYC? Maybe not for long!

New York City recently launched a pilot program that will help track down lost pets.
The program announced by the Mayor's Alliance for NYC's Animals, the ASPCA, and Animal Care & Control is designed to bolster the families’ own search efforts. 

If you lose or find a pet you can report it on the animal-care agency’s website http://www.nycacc.org . That helps get the search in motion. 

Supervised volunteers armed with technology will work to match shelter animals with reports on that website, and on other lost-and-found websites.

This is an awesome program. Go NYC!

Dating with Dogs!


Here is something fun. Dating with Dogs. It makes perfect sense. We have several friends that are single and live with dogs so when I received an email about finding the pet lover of your dreams it caught my eye. I attend pet trade shows all the time which is where I met Charlotte Reed a married, Petrendologist. She sent out an email inviting people to attend a class she is teaching Aug. 1st in NYC that is designed to help single pet owners discover how to meet their match. I passed the info to our friends who would appreciate a little help in that area and I thought I would share it with you! For more information you can go to Charlotte’s site: www.guidetodatingwithdogs.com
