Today’s Spotlight is on the Silky Terrier. A small dog, generally the breed stands 9 to 10 inches tall. An extremely loyal companion that does wonderfully indoors, Silky Terriers are considered a relative to the Yorkshire Terrier, and has many of the same traits. The main difference is in height and length.

Today’s PetMeds Spotlight is on human food. There are few among us that can resist the urge to “accidentally” drop a slice of ham for our best friend when we are making ourselves a sandwich. But there are some things to consider when sharing at meal time. Seasoning of the meat, including salts, sugars, spices, preservative, etc. can give your pet an upset stomach, and can interfere with meds they might be taking. Also, a variety of foods can cause allergic reactions and some everyday foods can be toxic to pets. For example, the next time you consider giving your animal companion leftovers, make sure to avoid anything with onions or garlic in it, they contain thiosulphates, and in certain dosages, can cause hemolytic anemia, where red blood cells burst while circulating, while with the proper dosage has been used as a natural flea repellant alternative, like in Brewer’s Yeast.

Today’s Spotlight is on the rescuer, and it can be most elegantly stated with the unofficial creed:
I am involved in dog rescue: my billfold and car are always running on empty, my house is never quiet or free of dog hair, nor is my car; my inbox is full of despair, but my soul is overflowing with the unconditional love and loyalty that can only come from a rescued dog.

This week’s spotlight is on the medical conditions most common in pets that wind up in the shelter. Some medical conditions can cost upwards of a few hundred dollars a month, and for some people it proves to be too much. We at 1800PetMeds feel that providing you with a lower-cost alternative to your vet can help making the financial decisions involved a little bit easier. Diabetes, congestive heart failure, and heartworm are some of the issues that at first can seem really expensive, but with either some preventative medicines or generic alternative can be made manageable.

Today’s Spotlight is on the Microchip. Many rescues know the importance of the microchip and it’s ability return a pet home, but did you know that once a dog has the chip it can be registered by multiple organizations.

Alter-Ations Inc. was formed in the summer of 2004 by a small group of women who, after volunteering many years at local shelters, knew there was a better way of finding homes for all the unwanted dogs and cats in Vernon County, Wisconsin. Reduce their numbers! In other words – Spay and Neuter!
