The Making of a GREAT DOG!
As most of you know, we show Cavaliers. We have had many Champion titled dogs in AKC and many with Majors and Points on their way to becoming Champions.
We've shown to the Top 20 in our breed. Breeding does play a large roll in how a dog will look. Environment, nutrition and care makes a good dog GREAT!
Like most pet owners, you have watched the dog shows and wish your dog looked like those seen on TV. Your dog can look and be just that, a healthy, vibrant and
gorgeous specimen of your breed. With the best foods, grooming products, and correct exercise, it can be done!
Here's How:
Food can make a difference as to how your dog looks, feels and smells. Your dog’s coat and skin is a reflection of what's going on inside. If your dog has food allergies,
he/she can develop hot spots, chewing at the feet, sores, constant scratching, etc. I would start by making sure you dog is off all foods and treats that contain wheat,
corn, soy, byproducts and chemicals. Consider Life's Abundance Foods and Vitamins and see the difference!!! Try a sample today! Second, you should visit
Cadeau's Day Spa Groomery for a Complete Professional Spa Grooming. Elise will start your pet with clean skin and coat to rid your pet's skin and coat of excessive build
up of other products by clarifing first. Then apply the correct all natural spa shampoos and all natural spa conditioners for your dog's needs. Third, Elise will give
you a personal consult to help you with your food choices.
We look forward to helping you and your pets live longer and healthier! Once you are educated on the facts, you can make educated choices. Give Cadeau's Day Spa
Groomery a call today at 301-260-1412 or email at your convenience at efavin@yahoo.com.
Things To Keep In Mind This Thanksgiving Holiday
1. Don’t give your animal different food than they would normally get. Over feeding turkey and all the trimmings to your dog can cause unwanted abdominal pain, vomiting
or diarrhea, none of which are welcome during this festive weekend.
2. Discourage your family members and guests from indulging your pet with inappropriate snacks. Spices and foods high in sodium (especially peanuts and chips) and other
fatty foods like poultry skin, beef or pork fat can cause an inflammation of the pancreas. Pancreatitis is a potentially life-threatening condition.
3. Dispose of aluminum foil, plastic wrap, and wax paper from holiday foods. If your pet can get to it, he or she will lick the food off foils or wraps. The swallowing of such
coverings can cause an intestinal obstruction.
4. Secure your garbage. It only takes a minute for your little scavenger to get into the garbage and wolf down whatever smells good -- including the string used to tie the turkey.
5. Keep chocolate away from your dog. Chocolate can be harmful to your pooch. Rapid breathing and hyperactivity are signs of bad reactions to chocolate.
6. Cooked turkey bones are also dangerous for you pet. Any brittle, spiky bone could lodge in the esophagus or cause an irritation or tears of his or her stomach or intestines.
7. Maintain his regular schedule for feeding and exercise. Minimizing the stress of an animal means being aware of his daily routine and expectations. Pay as much attention to
your pet as usual so that he will not feel neglected or insecure.
8. If your pet is not used to a houseful of guests, keep your pet home and away from parade celebrations. With the large crowds, your pet can become stressed or even worse,
can get lost in the crowd.
9. Make sure your furry friend has fresh water at all times. Frequently check your pet’s water bowl to make sure the supply is clean. Busy children and relatives may bump a bowl
and spill the water.
10. Provide a quiet refuge for your animal. With all the holidays fanfare, your pet will need a “time out” from visiting friends and family. A comfortable crate is one solution; a room
with a “Do Not Disturb” sign is another. Give your dog or cat time and space to settle down or take a nap.
11. Keep current registration and identification tags on your pet. With guests coming in and out of your home, it is very easy for a door to be left ajar and for your animal to wander off.
By being aware of these dangers to your pet, you can ensure both you and your pet the best possible holidays.
