Hi :

IsaacA Tribute To Our Dog
On an extremely sad note for our family, we recently lost our dog, Isaac.  I adopted him from the Humane Society 14 years ago when he was just a puppy.  Isaac was a Chow and Golden Retriever mix and was a cute puppy that grew into a very handsome dog.

When I went to pick out a dog at the Humane Society the agency had indicated that Isaac did not play well with most people, but after making eye contact with him, I thought he was just misunderstood and I knew the remedy would be good old love and attention.  From that day on we were best pals.  My wife also grew to love Isaac through our courtship and when our daughter Lexi arrived, he quickly became her favorite as well. In fact, "Isaac, Isaac" were among her first words. Everyone who met Isaac loved him instantly.

Isaac was an easy going and mellow dog who very much went with the flow, his favorite things to do were to hang out with the family (he was always on your heels), snooze in a nice sunny spot in the grass, and of course, EAT.  Although Isaac was "on a strict dog food diet", I would sneak him treats whenever possible (I couldn't resist seeing the happiness he got from those).

If you've ever lost a pet I'm sure you know how painful it is.  I've had many dogs in my life but I had a special bond with Isaac, in part due to some of the difficulties he came through in life.  There are just no words to describe the loss to me and my family, but the wonderful memories will never be lost.  I appreciate your indulgence in letting me share with you something about Isaac.  

Now on to pest control.

Our Commitment To Excellence: We know there are more worrisome matters than pest control and strive to make your pest control issues as pleasant of an experience as possible instead of a hassle - one less bit of aggravation. Be assured that we are at your disposal to continually provide the best, most responsive service in Arizona, guaranteed.

Rats: The presence of pack rats in large numbers persists so please be alert. These rascals are nasty, riddled with diseases and chew anything. Their bite is a guaranteed trip to the ER - which I doubt that you need. Arizona's head rat entomologist told me that their unusually large population is due to the warmer weather we've experienced - but who cares?  They're here and we must deal with the situation.

Africanized Killer Bees: This is Arizona's predominant honeybee. They're not here in droves yet but the warmer weather early this year guarantees their early arrival. I know this is redundant, but don't mess with any bees - Africanized or otherwise - because nothing good can come from the experience.  They will viciously attack without provocation and the results can be lethal at worst and extremely painful at best.

Sonoran Bee: This is our division established exclusively to handle bee matters. If you see a beehive or several bees hovering around a specific area or object on your property - Call us immediately - 480-473-2264 or 602-550-7373 to dispatch a bee expert who will assess the situation.  For more detailed information visit us at Sonoran Bee.

Happy Valentine's Day - take it easy on the chocolate so you can save some for me - like I really need it!

How about those Cardinals: What an outstanding performance and tribute to their commitment to excel - next season should be very interesting.

Sincerely,

Bret
