Gizmo has itchy skin - Should we change Pet Food?

noreply@blogger.com (B.K.) — Wed, 17 Mar 2010 16:11:00 +0000

JULIE:..........We currently purchase our NutriSource from you for our french bulldog, Gizmo! I was reading that sometimes it is a good idea to rotate between 2-3 different foods. Gizmo has dry skin and we currently give him fish oil to help with that. Can you give me the names of some top quality foods you have that you would recommend we try?? I also wondered if you had any samples of them we could try to make sure Gizmo will eat it!

PKS...........We understand that there are some circles that promote rotation of dog foods. We have heard many different schools of thought on why they recommend this practice.

We are not exactly on board with this thought. With that said, in some cases I think that it makes perfect sense to modify your dogs diet. We take the position that we should not attempt to fix something that is not troublesome.

With the fact that Gizmo is experiencing dry skin, it may be beneficial to explore other opportunities. While the fish oil will help with this problem, there may be a slight possibility that there is an underlying cause. It could be many things including, food allergy, frequent bathing, shampoo allergy, breed specific problems, etc. I would encourage you to think through all of the possibilities. We can help you address many of them.

Food allergy is one possibility that is extremely easy to explore with proper selection of pet food. However, this is only the case if the dog food is the only component of Gizmo’s diet. Other possible components such as treats, table scraps, the neighbor’s dog food that is left on their back porch, need to be explored.

The Nutri-Source that you are feeding is a great dog food and we have numerous customers that have had great success with it. We have two different products that are made by the same company as Nutri-Source …. PureVita and Natural Planet Organics. Either of those would be a great choice and we have samples of both. Pro Plan all life stages would be a good choice as well.

Here are links to two of the products that I mentioned above.

PureVita

Natural Planet Organics

Please feel free to come out and explore any other questions that you may have.

Thanks for your question and please tell all of Gizmo’s friends about the great offering of quality products and services at Pet and Kennel Supply!!

Red Worms - The Pet Grooms Natural Hair Disposal

noreply@blogger.com (B.K.) — Wed, 03 Feb 2010 16:52:00 +0000

Products that boast "All Natural" and "Organic" are certainly the newest buzz in the pet care industry. There are numerous new products launched every day that provide a natural and organic lifestyle for pets. Pet groomers create a lot of excess hair that is generally disposed of through normal garbage collection.

A recent conversation with Liz at Heartland Redworms of Grove, Oklahoma sparked an interesting thought: Can pet hair be disposed of by organic composting? Absolutely! "Red Worms beds are a great method of disposing of pet hair." says Liz " Over time the worms convert the hair to a wonderful organic fertilizer. This fertilizer can be used for gardens and all your potted plants and flowers."

Joint Health? Glucosamine Supplement in Dogs

noreply@blogger.com (B.K.) — Thu, 20 Aug 2009 04:07:00 +0000

Joint Health in Dogs

Just as in humans, Glucosamine has shown great effect for your dog's joint health. More importantly, as a natural dietary supplement, it also rehabilitates and soothes your dog's joints. Glucosamine is a preventive measure that will ensure your beloved friend will have maximum joint health. You will begin to notice the results in your pet within one to two weeks. You’ll find your dog more lively, active and animated. For some animals, the results are simply amazing.

Glucosamine is already found in the cartilage and synovial fluid, already in your joints. It is a normal constituent of your dog’s glycosaminoglycans, which form part of the ground substance of connective tissue. Several recent studies have shown that swallowed Glucosamine is absorbed and distributed to joint tissues, and that it does have anti-inflammatory and joint regenerating properties. This can be beneficial in osteoarthritic type conditions, such as hip dysplasia or osteoarthritis in dogs.

Cosequin DS is the leading product for providing Glucosamine supplementation to dogs. Cosequin DS is proven in veterinary research to be highly bio-available resulting in the highest level of absorption possible from an oral supplement.
