February 22 is “Walking the Dog Day,” a time to celebrate that ritual you enjoy every day with your canine companion. But just as with humans suffering from joint health issues, dogs with joint problems will have trouble with normal, everyday mobility. On this walk, pay special attention to how your buddy is moving. When you notice that your dog might be slowing down and becoming less active, there are options to help you improve the quality of his life.

The Westminster Kennel Club 136th Annual Dog Show is underway! Dogs of all shapes and sizes have gathered with their humans in Madison Square Garden to compete for the title of “Best in Show.” The event is certainly one of the most exciting among dog enthusiasts, but it can be very stressful on the canine competitors. Dogs performing in agility trials, dog shows, or other competitions are bombarded with stimuli and sometimes get overwhelmed. Flower essences are one tool to help manage anxiety and other emotions that dogs encounter in competitions.

February is American Heart Month! This is a good time to think about not only your cardiovascular health, but that of your dogs, too. Did you know that the very same omega-3 fatty acids that help keep your dog’s skin and coat healthy and shiny are also good for his heart? For this reason, many pet experts recommend adding fish oil to your dog’s diet.

February is National Pet Dental Health Month intended to raise awareness about dental health in pets. "It's estimated that by the age of two, 80 percent of dogs and 70 percent of cats have some form of periodontal disease,” explains Dr. Niemiec, a board certified veterinary dental specialist. “The best way to prevent periodontal disease is by regularly brushing your pet's teeth and by regularly visiting your veterinarian."¹ Easier said than done! Some pets are more cooperative than others but in general home pet dental care, as well as traveling to the vet for cleanings, can be a stressful situation for both the pet and its human caregiver. Calming products, such as flower essences, can help make this routine care easier on pets.

We all want our pets to live active, healthy lives. Toward that goal, more and more of us are buying nutritional supplements for our animal companions. There is no shortage of products available for joint health, good digestion, a healthy skin and coat, and many other common pet health issues.

Many of us make New Year’s resolutions to get healthier. What about our four-legged friends? With an increasing obesity rate for pets, chances are high that our dogs could benefit from that same resolution to be more active, eat better, and take good care of our health. But unlike most people, pets don’t control the factors that most impact their health. They depend upon their human care-givers to help them be at their best. Supporting your dog’s digestive health may the single most significant thing you can do to for a healthier canine companion in 2012.

Many of us travel with our pets at some point or another. For many cats and dogs, the journey can be a stressful experience. As we recognize National Pet Travel Safety Day this year on January 2¹, it is a good time to think about making getting from Point A to Point B much easier on you and your pets. Naturally we tend to think first of our pet’s physical safety. Many tools are available to make travel safer for pets, including pet carriers, car safety harnesses, and pet barriers designed to keep dogs out of the front driver’s area. While pet travel safety is very important, also supporting your pet’s emotional state can help make the voyage more pleasant for all involved.
