Dear Friends and Family,


Tim with HorsesThe holidays are here!

If you are like my wife and I, you love to decorate your home for the holidays.

Sometimes that includes bringing colorful holiday-specific plants into your home. However, some of them
(poinsettias, holly, mistletoe, etc.) are poisonous  to your pets. So, to help ensure a happy holiday season for all of your family, please remember to keep them out of reach.

For a complete list of poisonous plants and their side effects, please take a look at the ASPCA's web site. For other holiday safety tips, please take a look at this article on the American Kennel Club's web site. 
Medical ID Tags for Pets


You may have seen or heard about medical ID
braMedical ID Tagcelets or hang tags for
peo
ple with diabetes or other serious medical conditions. Well, they make these tags for pets, too.

I recommend getting a medical ID tag for your pet if they are on insulin for diabetes or another medication that is vital to their health.

By putting a medical ID tag on your pet, this will help anyone groomer, trainer, dog walker, vet, etc.) know that your pet has a special medical need in case they need to be treated. In addition, if your pet was lost, this information would be helpful to anyone that finds him/her.


For other helpful tips, please check out my blog.

Thank you to everyone who has written a positive review about my book on Amazon.com and

To encourage more of you to add your positive comments about my book to these sites, I am having a contest.

During the month of December, for each newly added, positive review to either of these sites, I will have a drawing for a free 15-minute telephone consultation ($35.00 value).

For example, if there are ten positive reviews posted to these sites (combined) during the month of December, I will draw from those ten postings and award a free 15-minute telephone consultation to the winner.

I will contact the winner by e-mail. So, be sure that I have your e-mail address on file by letting me know that you posted a review.

A minimum of 10 positive reviews needed to hold the prize drawing.
