A dog’s coat is often his most noticeable characteristic, as well as a gauge of his overall well-being. A coat that looks dull or thin, feels greasy or rough and has a general unkempt appearance may indicate that the animal is not in optimal health. Poor coat quality can occur alone, without skin problems, and may have its roots in poor nutrition.

Enzymes are the foundation of your dog’s healthy digestion. Almost all digestion in the intestinal tract is made possible through digestive enzymes. Your pet’s body produces its own digestive enzymes but he also gets them from his food. However, a dog’s physical situation combined with the commercial dog food he likely eats often leads to him not getting enough digestive enzymes for optimal digestion, nutrition, and overall health.

With images of Hurricane Irene fresh in everyone’s minds, few of us need to be reminded of why a little planning ahead is so important in times of disaster. September is National Disaster Preparedness Month, and a good time to review your plans to keep your family safe, including your pets. Pets are like children…they count on us to look out for their wellbeing. The most responsible thing a pet parent can do to keep pets safe in a natural disaster is to be prepared well in advance. Yes, that old Girl Scout motto many of us recall, “Be Prepared,” turns out to be very wise advice in many areas of life!

August 30 is National Holistic Pet Day, a day to recognize the value of a healthy lifestyle for your dog or cat, one that embraces the whole animal. Merriam Webster’s dictionary defines the word holistic as “relating to or concerned with whole or complete systems.” It encompasses both the physical and emotional wellbeing of your pet. Holistic health emphasizes maintaining wellness, instead of treating disease. Paying attention to what helps your pet thrive will also help prevent disease. Instead of treating symptoms as they occur, a holistic approach to your pet’s health will support the fundamental systems that keep him healthy and happy.
