Chicken Warning for Pet Owners

This year the FDA has logged at least 353 reports of dogs getting sick due to chicken jerky products (also sold as chicken tenders, or treats), all imported from China. That’s up from 70 reports of illnesses and some deaths received in 2011 before an updated warning was issued in November.

The FDA has not yet been able to identify the source of the problem or a specific brand or type of treat.

Officials say simply to avoid giving pets any chicken jerky treats imported from China. They also say to get your dog to a vet immediately if you notice decreased appetite or activity, vomiting, diarrhea, increased water consumption and urination.

She loved her fresh beef bones….

…and her life was long and beautiful. Sangria (Hoover) Mex.FCI was born here at Besito Xolo in July of 1999. She gave us two litters of beautiful puppies, two of which were Wld.Ch.Multi Ch. Tayacati(Hoover)Mex.FCI and Wld.Ch.,Multi Ch., Multi BIS Chak-Tepal (Hoover) Mex.FCI. As a pair, those two took two 2nd place and one 3rd place Brace at world shows. Sangria spent the last several years of her life as an “only dog.” She lived a life of luxury and fun. She was the product of a breeding between Pulque-Topilt (Cortez-Rivera)Mex.FCI and Atole (Premio Real)Mex.FCI, both of which were from Mexico. I am grateful to the Mexican breeders who allowed me to work with their lines.

Its time to say it…

…and I have always liked the way Ann Landers said it:
Let this coming year be better than all the others. Vow to do some of the things you’ve always wanted to do but couldn’t find the time. Call up a forgotten friend. Drop an old grudge, and replace it with some pleasant memories. Vow not to make a promise you don’t think you can keep. Walk tall, and smile more. You’ll look ten years younger. Don’t be afraid to say, ‘I love you’. Say it again. They are the sweetest words in the world.

Happy New Year!!
