CANCER AND YOUR PET

April/2010

Greetings!

Brent and Skylla

It is with great excitement that we announce another Customer Appreciation Day! You, our loyal customers, have significantly helped us to improve the way our dogs and cats eat!

Around this time, 10 years ago, my wife Tamara and I thought about closing our first shop in Calgary because it seemed like most people just didn't "get" what we were about. Now, thanks to you, we are 13 stores strong and now there are many dogs and cats living healthier, longer lives. It brings joy to our hearts every time we hear another success story!

So as a thanks to you, on May 1st, 2010, we are offering 10% off - everything in the store - at all Tail Blazers locations. We will also have gifts and prizes and for May 1st we are donating 5% of our sales at all locations to local animal charities.

We would also like to ask for your help in continuing to spread the good word so we can reach all the pet guardians, and their pets.

With Sincere Thanks,

Brent Hauberg,
President of Tail Blazers

Cancer and your Pet

What you can do to help prevent and treat Cancer in your pet
by Brent Hauberg

Lydi - Available for adoption in Calgary at www.mistycreekdogrescue.com

Tail Blazers was created ten years ago because there was a need to address the preventable, diet-related health issues that dogs and cats were facing. Thanks to pet guardians that were willing to learn and ready to embrace change, many of our domestic companions are now eating and thriving on raw diets. The success of the raw food movement has also encouraged many companies to develop and market high quality grain-free dry foods. Even canned foods and treats have improved!

Perhaps the biggest and most notable change over the last ten years has been the huge and ever-expanding selection of healthy, species appropriate foods. Unfortunately, two of the most common ailments that have prompted pet guardians to visit Tail Blazers are still running rampant through our pet population. Cancer and Allergies.

Cancer and allergies are still responsible for far too many visits to the vet and all too much pain and suffering for both our pets, and their human companions. Although we do have many success stories, we still have many people to reach.

Both Cancer and Allergies have many causes, but let us first address Cancer. It may be shocking to believe now, but in the 80's there were very few doctors that believed diet had any impact on Cancer. Today there has been wide-spread success of TV shows like Dr. Oz that cover in detail the role that food and lifestyle play in preventing cancer. Research is continuing to reveal how certain foods can reduce the risk of certain Cancers by as much as 75%!

So what causes cancer?
