Customer Thanks True-Dose for Help With Pet's Thunderstorm Phobia


Saint Louis, MO (PRWEB) April 30, 2013

April showers bring May flowers, but they also bring anxious, scared pets! True-Dose is proud to announce that customers have taken to the company's Facebook page to express their satisfaction with True-Dose Calming in thunderstorm season.


Client Nancy Lyons posted onto the True-Dose Facebook page: True Dose Calming works great! We received free samples and a couple nights later had thunderstorms. We gave some to our Boston Terrier, who is terrified of thunder, and it worked like a charm. About 20 minutes after giving it to her, she was lying down with no anxiety or pacing due to the storm. Great Stuff!


Calming has seen great success with thunderstorm season rolling into the Midwest this month. Thunderstorm phobia is quite common, especially in dogs. True-Dose Calming acts fast to help alleviate anxiety in pets.


True-Dose, an all-natural, liquid pet supplement made from human-grade ingredients, is specially formulated so that pets absorb an optimal amount quickly.


Signs of Thunderstorm Phobia in Pets

The reason for thunderstorm phobia varies from pet to pet, but fear of loud noises is probably the most common reason. However, other common causes include changes in barometric pressure and humidity. In addition, older pets may feel achy from arthritis and stiff joints. Symptoms of thunderstorm phobia in your pets include hyperactivity, destructiveness or reclusiveness. Many pets will pace, become clingy or show obvious signs of anxiety.


About True-Dose Calming

True-Dose Calming is one of the best-selling supplements in its product line. True-Dose Calmings special, all-natural formula of Chamomile, Valerian Extracts, Ginger Extracts and Tryptophan combine to rush relief to anxious pets. True-Doses patented liquid delivery system guarantees fast absorption. Just pump the liquid onto your pets food and your pet should see relief from symptoms in as little as 15 minutes.


Another client, Trisha Seelan, posted on Facebook: While hiding in the basement last night, were you also trying to keep your furry little creatures calm as well? In case you are not already aware, there is something out there that can help you and the pets that you love in this sort of situation! Get True-Dose Calming for your pets. You can thank me later.

Allergy Season Affects Pets as Well as People

Malverne, New York (PRWEB) May 23, 2013

Spring is allergy season not only for people, but also for pets. Assisi Veterinary Hospital urges pet owners to be aware of the potential threat of allergies to their pets and offers treatments for pet allergies.


An allergy is a state of over-reactivity of the immune system to a particular substance called an allergen. Allergen exposure may cause an over-reaction. This means that the immune response, which normally protects the pet against infection and disease, can actually be harmful to the body.


Common symptoms of pet allergies include itching, coughing, sneezing, runny eyes or nose and possible vomiting and diarrhea depending on the allergen.


Assisi Veterinary Hospital offers various treatments for different allergies. Treatments offered range from different antihistamines to steroids and other injections. Assisi will also conduct allergy testing and food trial avoidance to pinpoint what exactly is causing the allergy and what each pet should avoid.


Antihistamines block the effects of a chemical that triggers allergy symptoms. Theyre sold over the counter and do not cause any harmful side effects. Prescription steroids can significantly suppress allergy symptoms. Steroids can be injected or taken orally. They begin at high doses and then taper off to small doses as their effectiveness decreases with more use. A series of allergy shots injecting whatever is causing the allergy under the pets skin can help as well. These injections work just like serum injections for people as the antigens cure allergies over time.


The most natural way to treat pet allergies is to avoid allergens. Allergens include mites, molds, grasses and pollens. Whatever it is that is causing a pets allergy, pet owners should try to avoid it. Assisi Veterinary Hospital conducts allergy testing that tells exactly what is causing a pets allergy and what pet owners should avoid. Food trial avoidance can also be conducted to see if certain foods are causing allergy symptoms and should be avoided.


Wellness exams at Assisis veterinary clinic ensure that pets stay in optimal health. Vaccinations can be administered according to each pets needs. These vaccines work to keep pets defended against diseases encountered during day-to-day activities.


Other services offered by Assisi Veterinary Hospital include laser surgery and ultrasound, dog boarding and day care, baths and grooming, microchipping, DNA testing and breed identification, pet certification, stem cell therapy and radioactive iodine therapy for feline hyperthyroidism.


About the company:


Assisi Veterinary Hospital is a full service, state-of-the-art facility offering the very best in high quality care for all pet's needs. With their fully licensed, caring and kindhearted staff, they will care for pets as if they were their own. The Animal Hospital boasts a staff of over 18 fully trained professionals. Assisi also offers services such as pet boarding and pet grooming. For more information, please visit their website at http://www.assisivh.com.

Keep pets in shape this winter with Wahl pet grooming gift set

Warwickshire, UK (PRWEB UK) 3 December 2012

The product, which is available at Beststuff.co.uk, features a selection of tools and gadgets that are designed to cater for a dog or cat's every need. Users will be in a prime position to ensure their canine companions and feline friends are kept in the best possible shape as the cold and rain hits.


Included within the set is a Wahl Pocket Pro trimmer to tidy an animal's coat at regular intervals, a 250ml bottle of Dirty Beastie cleaning and deodorising shampoo for washing mucky pups and the Wahl double-sided brush and pet care scissors.


During the winter months, pets that venture outdoors - such as dogs and cats - are more likely to pick up dirt and suffer at the hands of the elements. As such, it is crucial that owners do all they can to afford them an extra level of protection and care.


Not only is it important to keep a pet in a healthy state, it is also worth making an investment of

Certified Pet Groomer and CEO of Averys Pet Styling Salon & Boutique Offers Tips to Keep Pets Safe and Healthy During Harsh Winter Weather


Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (PRWEB) January 15, 2013

In order to diminish the effects of the winter weather, Certified Pet Groomer and CEO of Averys Pet Styling Salon and Boutique, Taria Avery, suggests 3 basic tips for pet parents to get started with to help keep their fur-kids healthy and happy during the winter season.


1.) Brush or Comb Your Pet 2-3 Times a Week

Keeping your pets coat clear of knots and matts is as important as maintaining monthly baths. Using a brush is fine, but if your pet has long curly hair be sure to use a comb and take it all the way down to the skin. For some double coated dogs, excess oils can build up in their skin and may cause dry patches that may eventually contribute to hot spots if pet parents do not pay attention to their pets skincare regimen. On a double-coated dog, use a brush to remove the excess undercoat and to facilitate proper air circulation to the skin.


Cats require grooming too. Many cat owners believe their cats do a good enough job keeping clean, but they too need a thorough combing to help keep their skin and coat healthy.


2.) Set Aside 15 Minutes for Essential Care

In addition to brushing or combing, essential care includes clipping nails, brushing teeth, and cleaning out pets ears. This should be done about 1-3 times a week depending on your fur-kids specific needs. During the winter season, grooming nuances tend to get put off, but to keep pesky infections at bay it is critical to maintain essential care.


3.) Maintain Exercise Habits

Dont let the blistering winter elements stop pets from getting the exercise they need. Pet parents can create in-house solutions to make sure their pets get the required exercise. For example, allowing pets to walk on treadmills is a great way to keep pets fit. But be sure to keep the treadmill on low speed, and discuss it with your Veterinarian before putting your pet on any exercising machine.


Avery understands pet grooming is just as important during the winter months as it is during the warmer seasons. Bitter cold conditions can have a harmful effect on a pets skin, coat and paw pads if not properly maintained. Unfortunately, pet parents may be tempted to skip out on winter grooming sessions assuming that allowing their pets fur to grow full is the best protection from intense winds and cold weather.


Lastly Avery says try to stick as closely to their normal grooming routine as possible. Make sure your fur-kid has access to fresh and clean water at all times, keep a space heater close by to provide additional warmth in the house if appropriate. As the cold and snow set in, continue booking your regular grooming sessions, but use these tips to protect your fur-kid and supplement your existing maintenance schedule with your dog groomer or cat groomer.

SEBO Vacuum Cleaners Creates a Pet Club to Support Animal Rescue Shelters, Pet Adoption, and Veterinary Services, and to Showcase Your Pets' Photo


Centennial, CO (PRWEB) February 05, 2013

SEBO America / SEBO Vacuum Cleaners has created a pet club on their website that provides resource links for pet lovers to non-profit organizations that offer pet services such as pet adoption, animal rescue shelters, veterinary services, pet care grants, pet educational resources, etc., in the USA. Donations to these pet charities are extremely important to our pets health and survival. SEBO Vacuum Cleaners has featured six pet charity organizations: The Humane Society of the United States, ASPCA, PETA, PetAid Colorado, MuttSavers Rescue, and Petfinder. SEBO invites other pet aid volunteer and pet service organizations, regardless if they are a small or large organization, to participate in this pet awareness program for their community, and encourages volunteers to help their local pet organizations.


The SEBO Pet Club was also created to showcase pets of all kinds, and to encourage SEBO product owners to share their pet experiences or floor-care ideas, when pets are family members. Pet club members are also eligible for free product giveaways. To participate in their program, pet lovers can upload their pets' photo to the SEBO Pet Club for the whole world to see, and will remain indefinitely for the enjoyment of others.


SEBO believes that pets have special floor-care needs. For instance, sometimes people forget to consider their pets' health when using certain cleaners on hardwood floors, or when using an inadequate vacuum cleaner that attempts to pick up pet hair and emits dirt, bacteria and allergens back into the air you breathe. Pet owners should be aware of these air quality health issues that are created by using typical bagless vacuum cleaners that are not sealed and leak the dirt back into the air you breathe.


SEBO recommends that pet owners consider a pet vacuum cleaner that has sealed bagged vacuum cleaner that can absorb odors, is quiet so it does not hurt your pets' hearing, deep-cleans, removes pet hair effectively, has easy brush roller removal for cleaning pet hair, and most importantly, has sealed hospital-grade filtration for allergy and asthma relief, to protect all family members.


SEBO's website features videos from charitable organizations to help get their story out and to educate the community in general about respecting all animals and their health needs. Enjoy the funny YouTube video for pet adoption featured at http://www.sebo.us/pet-club.aspx


ABOUT SEBO:

Made in Germany, since 1978, SEBO offers the worlds best upright vacuums, and canister vacuums for pet hair removal, allergy and asthma relief, ease-of- use, and reliability. SEBO vacuum cleaners have received awards and recognition from Better Homes and Gardens, Consumer's Digest, TIME, Real Simple, Wired Test and other magazines.

Tips for Keeping Pets Safe in Warm Weather

Portland, Ore. (PRWEB) June 06, 2013

With the high temperatures of summer already in the forecast, the expert medical staff at DoveLewis Emergency Animal Hospital encourages pet owners to pay special attention to their furry family members.


Folks in the Pacific Northwest worship the sun and take full advantage of these early, warm summer days, says Dr. MeiMei Welker, a staff veterinarian at DoveLewis Emergency Animal Hospital. Sometimes we dont realize how warm weather may affect our pets until its too late.


Keeping pets cool in the heat is crucial to preventing heatstroke and exhaustion. Understanding limitations and taking extra precautions in warm weather may be the difference between life and death for pets.


Just like older humans, older dogs can be especially susceptible to the higher temperatures, says Dr. Welker. Also, certain breeds are not as good at adapting to high heat. Short-nose dog breeds, like pugs or bulldogs, may be at a higher risk. Now is the time to become familiar with the warning signs before your animal gets into a dangerous situation.


Here are some helpful reminders for keeping pets safe in warm weather.


Never, ever leave a pet in the car. It may seem like a car trip will cool them off, but it might do more harm than good. The sun can raise the temperature in the car to 120 degrees Fahrenheit within minutes. Even with the windows cracked, a short time left in the car can be deadly for pets.


Just like humans, pets need extra water. Whether indoors or outside, both humans and pets need access to lots of fresh water on warm days. Check pet water bowls several times a day to be sure they are full. If going outside, be sure to bring plenty of water for everyone.


Keep dogs leashed and keep an eye on them. If a dog is extra thirsty, she may be interested in water sources that are dangerous. Seemingly safe puddles of water may include toxic substances like oils, antifreeze or other dangerous chemicals. Standing water could also harbor Giardia, a common protozoan parasite which causes severe intestinal distress and dehydration in dogs.


Pets need sunscreen and can get sunburned, just like humans especially if she has light colored hair, fur and skin. Animal sunburns can cause some of the same problems people with sunburns experience: pain, peeling, and even skin cancer. Keep pets out of the sun during the peak hours of the day from 10:00AM to 4:00PM. When taking a pet outside, apply pet-safe sunblock on unprotected areas like the tips of the ears, the skin around the lips, and the tip of the nose. Not all sunblock is safe for pets. A general rule of thumb: If it is safe for babies, it is safe for pets.


Watch the exercise. Dont overdo it in the heat. Keep walks to a gentle pace, and make them short. If a dog is panting a lot or seems exhausted, it is time to stop. Warm weather exercise followed by a trip home in a hot car could have deadly repercussions.


Inside is better than outside. Even in the shade, pets can get sick quickly on hot days. Keep pets indoors as much as possible. If they are outside, make sure they have plenty of water and shade, and check on them regularly.


Watch for the signs. Heatstroke can be fatal if not treated quickly. When heatstroke is suspected, contact a local emergency animal hospital like DoveLewis immediately. In the meantime, try to lower the pets body temperature by applying towels soaked in cool water to the hairless areas of his or her body (like the tips and back of ears, foot pads, belly and inner thigh areas). Often the pet will respond and appear normal after only a few minutes of cooling. Extreme changes in body temperature are dangerous, and it is imperative to seek the care of a veterinarian right away.


Recognize the Signs of Heatstroke:

Panting

Staring

Anxious expressions

Refusal to obey commands

Warm, dry skin

High fever

Rapid heartbeat

Vomiting

Collapse
