We really loved going to the 5th Annual CityDog Magazine MuttMixer at the W Hotel in downtown Seattle on Wednesday. CityDog gave out a great swag bag full of all kinds of goodies for dogs. Ultimate Health For Dogs had some media literature in there as well. Here is a link to a bunch of fun pics we took from the event.

For or/and Against...

This is a short item worth the read by Perry Marshall.

Beautiful Skin & Coat after using dog vitamins

Great testimonial just posted to our site by Sara:
My beautiful English Mastiff, Sasha, was acquired at 2 years of age. She had some sort of skin allergy or condition, plus she was a very finicky eater. The skin condition produced a festering rash, rather like chicken pox, all over her body.

She continued to refuse to eat very much at all for weeks after her arrival, until I began putting “Ultimate Health for Dog’s Liquid Dog Vitamins Formula” on her food. Voila! That was all it took. Now she eats her healthy, nourishing dry food with her liquid vits poured on top. Within three weeks her coat became lustrous and her lesions disappeared. Her energy level has also increased and she is a joy to behold.

Be concerned about this recall...

Always wash your hands after handling any dog food. If you knew how it was made you'd probably wear gloves.

Warning for Dog and Cat Owners - NOT A JOKE

Please tell every dog or cat owner you know. Even if you don't have a pet, please pass this to those who do. Over the weekend, the doting owner of two young lab mixes purchased Cocoa Mulch from Target to use in their garden. The dogs loved the way it smelled and it was advertised to keep cats away from their garden. Their dog (Calypso) decided the mulch smelled good enough to eat and devoured a large helping. She vomited a few times which was typical when she eats something new but wasn't acting lethargic in any way. The next day, Mom woke up and took Calypso out for her morning walk . Half way through the walk, she had a seizure and died instantly. Although the mulch had NO warnings printed on the label, upon further investigation on the company's website, this product is known to be HIGHLY toxic to dogs and cats. Cocoa Mulch is manufactured by Hershey's, and they claim that "It is true that studies have shown that 50% of the dogs that eat Cocoa Mulch can suffer physical harm to a variety of degrees (depending on each individual dog). However, 98% of all dogs won't eat it." *Snopes site gives the following information: Http://www.snopes.com/critters/crusader/cocoamulch.asp * Cocoa Mulch, which is sold by Home Depot, Foreman's Garden Supply and other garden supply stores contains a lethal ingredient called 'Theobromine'. It is lethal to dogs and cats. It smells like chocolate and it really attracts dogs. They will ingest this stuff and die. Several deaths already occurred in the last 2-3 weeks. Theobromine is in all chocolate, especially dark or baker's chocolate which is toxic to dogs. Cocoa bean shells contain potentially toxic quantities of theobromine, a xanthine compound similar in effect to caffeine and theophylline. A dog that ingested a lethal quantity of garden mulch made from cacao bean shells developed severe convulsions and died 17 hours later. Analysis of the stomach contents and the ingested cacao bean shell revealed the presence of lethal amounts of theobromine.

Nice feature about a great product...

A wonderful liquid dog vitamin mix add to any food, mix in Great taste, great system boosters.
