Merry Christmas!

Have a safe and happy Holiday Season. Make sure to buy your pets a little something for Christmas. They are a big part of your family.

Cold weather is on its way!

Now that the weather is cooling down make sure to increase your outdoor pet's food intake. They will require it to create more heat to keep themselves warm. Also, don't forget to give them a warm, clean, dry shelter out of the wind.

It's hard to say goodbye

The hardest thing about owning a pet is knowing when it is time to say goodbye. Goodbye Honey! I hope you are running through the lush, green pastures in heaven. We will miss you until we see you again.

Thanks for coming out to the book signing!

Thanks to Gary and Doug at The Red Lodge Bookstore for putting on a great book signing. I really appreciate it. Make sure to stop in to see them. They have an awesome selection of books, teas, and cigars. They can even recommend a great movie!

Summer time is heating up!

Always make sure your pets have plenty of fresh clean, water as the temperatures rise. Also make sure that your pets have a shady spot to get into to avoid the sun and heat stroke.
If your pet does over heat, rub rubbing alcohol under their armpits and on their groin area. It helps them cool down quicker.
Lots of us love to take our dogs swimming in the summer. Always remeber to dry their ears so they don't get a yeast infestion.

Protect your horses from Potomac Fever

Potomac Horse Fever (equine monocytic ehrlichiosis) is an inflammatory gastrointestinal disease that affects horses of all ages. It is an infectious and contagious disease most common in spring and summer. This disease is transmitted to horses via a bacteria, Ehrlichia risticii which has been recently renamed Neoriketssia ristici. This bacteria is associated with a parasite of freshwater snails. The bacteria also infects the larvae of mayflies and caddis flies which live in fresh water.
Make sure to get your horse vaccinated for Potomac Fever and always turn lights off around water sources at night to avoid attracting flies that carry this and other diseases.

Brush your pets

As the weather heats up make sure to brush and groom all that shedding hair off our pets. It will not only help them stay cool and comfortable, but it will save you hours cleaning your house.

Pull Your Horses Shoes In the Winter

Don't forget to pull your horses shoes in the winter. Shoes can accumulate snow and ice, and your poor ponies will be walking on snowballs, which is defiantely not good for them.

Deadly Antifreeze

Make sure that you don't have any antifreeze in areas where your pets have access. They like the sweet aroma and taste of it, and it can be deadly for them.

Happy New Year

I hope all of you and your families have a safe, heathy, happy, and properous new year, and new decade. The 10's are going to be great!
