Alert! Greenie Dog Treats Blamed for Pet Deaths -- Not A Joke

Just in from our friends at AZ Greyhounds:

Greenie Dog Treats Blamed for Pet Deaths
CNN Daily News Clips : Dog Treats Blamed for Pet Deaths

Roughly 315 million Greenies were sold last year, but the breath-freshening treats have been blamed for at least 13 pet deaths and more than two dozen complaints have been filed with the feds.

The maker of Greenies plan to clarify feeding instructions and increase the print size on packaging, which included a small-print warning that gulping any item can be harmful and even fatal.

BB & Take Care!

10 Commandments for Dogs

1. My life is likely to last 10-15 years. Any separation from you will be painful for me. Remember that BEFORE you get me.

2. Give me time to understand what it is you want from me.

3. Place your trust in me, it is crucial to my well-being.

4. Don't be angry at me for long and don't lock me up as punishment. You have your work, entertainment and friends. I have only YOU.

5. Talk to me sometimes. Even if I don't understand your words, I understand your voice.

6. Be aware that however you treat me, I will never forget.

7. Please don't hit me. I can't hit back, but I can bite and scratch and I really don't want to do that.

8. Before you scold me for being uncooperative, obstinate or lazy, ask yourself if something might be bothering me. Perhaps I'm not getting the right foods or I've been out in the sun too long or my heart is getting old and weak!

9. Take care of me when I get old. You will get old, too.

10. Go with me on difficult journeys. NEVER say, "I can't bear to watch," or "Let it happen in my absence." Everything is easier for me if you are there.

And always remember, I LOVE YOU!

There is nothing so pure and strong as the love of a dog for his Master.

A beautiful exerpt from a wonderful German Shephard Rescue organization based in Phoenix, Arizona: http://www.swgermanshepherdrescue.com/.

"People who let their dogs and cats have litters in order to show their children the 'miracle of birth' should come witness the 'miracle of death' performed in the back rooms of animal shelters all over the country." --Unknown

Love Your Pets? READ THIS POST!

Hello! We just received a message from AZ Greyhounds (a non-profit rescue group we donate to) regarding ...

CONTAMINATED PET FOOD MAY HAVE KILLED DOZENS OF DOGS
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration reports that at least 76 dogs nationwide are believed to have died as a result of eating contaminated Diamond Pet Foods.

Diamond Pet Foods has recalled 19 brands of dog and cat food for being contaminated with aflatoxin, a naturally occurring toxic chemical by-product from the growth of the fungus Aspergillus flavus, on corn and other crops.

Customers who have purchased the recalled Diamond Pet Food manufactured in the South Carolina plant should immediately stop using it and return any remaining product to their retailer, according to the FDA.

AFLATOXIN POISONING SYMPTOMS:
Aflatoxin comes from a fungus found on corn and other crops and can cause severe liver damage in pets. If your pet shows any of these symptoms contact your veterinarian immediately.

— Sluggishness
— Loss of appetite
— Jaundice (yellow whites of the eyes, gums, belly)
— Severe, persistent vomiting combined with bloody diarrhea
— Fever
