Grooming rules

May 11, 2016May 11, 2016 Healthy Dog Club

With busy schedules keeping us on the go, dog grooming often gets pushed aside for other commitments. However, proper pooch hair care is crucial — not just to keep your dog looking good, but also to ensure he’s in good pet health. “Dogs, like humans, feel better when they are clean and healthy,” says Alicia Seguin, a groomer at 2 PAWS UP in Cranston, R.I.

A Dog With A Lesson To Teach

March 9, 2016March 9, 2016 Healthy Dog Club

By Robert Mueller It is so touching when I receive testimonials from my clients. Not only is it refreshing to hear a client’s story on their experience with raw diets, but I am able to hear how I have changed the life of their pet’s. This customer takes me through her experience with raw diet from the very beginning. “I’ll believe it when I see it,” as the saying goes. Well, I see it, but I can hardly believe it. Bella, a Labrador retriever mix who was 13 years old on February 13, has been part…

Steroids do more harm than good

By Robert Mueller Environmental allergies are the biggest trigger. Detoxification is an essential part of the body’s metabolic process. The key organ that is involved in this process is the liver. Because the liver is constantly bombarded with toxic chemicals both of internal and external origin, a wide range of toxins need to be neutralized. Many factors contribute to the accumulation of toxins in the body. These factors include: 1. Nutritional deficiencies caused by soil depletion and improperly formulated diets. 2. Specific imbalances created by processed food (kibble). 3. Drugs…

Best New Years resolution for you and your pet

Raw Dog Food Tip “This is the time of year when people make unreasonable and outrageous choices for their New Year’s resolutions. We always think that this year will be different, but it ends up the same as last year when our diet plans disappear after 1 week. Even if we fail in our own commitments, there is something to do that is very achievable and beneficial for your pet. In 2016, vow to improve your pet’s diet and provide a healthy and nutritious advantage over processed kibble, dry or…

Vetenerians have long suspected this: Watch out for dog halitosis…

By Robert Mueller I would guess that very few people are aware of the connection between good dental health and the benefits it provides for good cardiovascular health. Pets that are in the infant stage of 2 to 6 weeks start teething issues when their deciduous teeth erupt through the gums, giving rise to pain and inflammation. It is at this time when the “naughty puppy” stage begins, and they will chew on whatever they can find to relieve the pain. It is my recommendation that you give your puppy…

It’s Fall…and My Pet Is Still Suffering From Allergies!

November 24, 2015November 24, 2015 Healthy Dog Club

Pet allergies can cause discomfort With regard to allergies, there are definitely certain times of the year that create more stressful periods for people and pets. Those who are affected by pollen, molds, pesticides, and other stressors can have a really tough time. In the case of our stress-affected pets, it becomes an even more serious issue. Although things are getting a little better as cooler weather kicks in, many veterinary clinics are still dealing with allergy issues as you may be with your pet. There are a variety…

Thank Goodness For You Thinkers!

June 23, 2015 Healthy Dog Club

Today’s topic is something WE ALL need think about. Please don’t accept what I recommend or what your vet (or your doctor) tells you to do without undertaking some additional investigation on your own. Whether or not to vaccinate is a topic that pertains not only to our pets but to our children as well. The big question is whether or not it is the right thing to do. I have spent almost 40 years teaching people that feeding a raw food diet is a more appropriate way to…
