Warning about Cacao-mulch, coco-mulch and similar, made from cacao-bean shells.
The aroma of these products are irresistable to dogs, with toxic, often fatal results.


"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 effects 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 shells revealed the presence of lethal amounts of theobromine."

Another pet food recall....

http://www.fda.gov/Safety/Recalls/ucm203612.htm

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE -- Lincoln, NE, March 8, 2010 – Nature's Variety has expanded its voluntary recall of Chicken Formula Raw Frozen Diets for dogs and cats to include the "Best If Used By" dates of 10/29/10 and 11/9/10 because these products may be contaminated with Salmonella. Salmonella can affect animals and there is risk to humans from handling contaminated pet products. People handling pet food can become infected with Salmonella, especially if they have not thoroughly washed their hands after having contact with the product or any surfaces exposed to these products.

Healthy people infected with Salmonella should monitor themselves for some or all of the following symptoms: nausea, vomiting, diarrhea or bloody diarrhea, abdominal cramping and fever. Rarely, Salmonella can result in more serious ailments, including arterial infections, endocarditis, arthritis, muscle pain, eye irritation, and urinary tract symptoms. Consumers exhibiting these signs after having contact with this product should contact their healthcare providers.

Pets with Salmonella infections may become lethargic and have diarrhea or bloody diarrhea, fever, or vomiting. Some pets may experience only a decreased appetite, fever, or abdominal pain. If your pet has consumed any of the affected products and is experiencing any of these symptoms, please contact your veterinarian.

The recall includes the following products with a "Best If Used By" date of 10/29/10 or 11/9/10:


UPC#7 69949 60131 9 – Chicken Formula 0.75 lb trial sized medallions
UPC#7 69949 60130 2 – Chicken Formula 3 lb medallions
UPC#7 69949 60120 3 – Chicken Formula 6 lb patties
UPC#7 69949 60121 0 – Chicken Formula 2 lb single chubs
In an abundance of caution, Nature's Variety has also chosen to expand this voluntary recall to include all Chicken Formula and Organic Chicken Formula Raw Frozen Diets for dogs and cats with any "Best If Used By" date on or before 2/5/11. Nature's Variety has elected to clear the market of raw frozen chicken diets as it implements a state-of-the-art new food safety process called High Pressure Pasteurization for use on all Nature's Variety Raw Frozen Diets.

The products included in the expanded recall are any Chicken Formula or Organic Chicken Formula Raw Frozen Diet with a "Best If Used By" date on or before 2/5/11, including:


UPC#7 69949 60131 9 – Chicken Formula 0.75 lb trial sized medallions
UPC#7 69949 60130 2 – Chicken Formula 3 lb medallions
UPC#7 69949 60120 3 – Chicken Formula 6 lb patties
UPC#7 69949 60121 0 – Chicken Formula 2 lb single chubs
UPC#7 69949 50121 3 – Chicken Formula 12 lb case of chubs
UPC#7 69949 60137 1 – Organic Chicken Formula 3 lb medallions
UPC#7 69949 60127 2 – Organic Chicken Formula 6 lb patties
The "Best If Used By" date is located on the back of the package above the safe handling instructions. The affected product was distributed through retail stores and internet sales in the United States and Canada.

No other Raw Frozen Diets are involved in this expansion other than chicken, and no other Nature's Variety products are involved.

Nature's Variety now uses High Pressure Pasteurization on their Raw Frozen Diets as a unique process to kill pathogenic bacteria through high-pressure, water-based technology. Having incorporated this state-of-the-art technology on a portion of their raw product offerings in late 2009, Nature's Variety was able to confidently implement the process universally on all Raw Frozen Diets after the 2/11/10 recall in order to enhance food safety. Nature's Variety also utilizes a test and hold protocol to ensure that all High Pressure Pasteurized Raw Frozen Diets test negative for harmful bacteria before being released for sale.

"Nature's Variety believes replacing all raw frozen chicken products on the market with new raw frozen chicken products that use High Pressure Pasteurization is an important and responsible step in order to reinforce consumer confidence and trust," stated Reed Howlett, CEO of Nature's Variety. "By recalling all raw frozen chicken products with ‘Best If Used By' dates on or before 2/5/11, we can provide our pet parents with new raw frozen chicken products that have been processed through High Pressure Pasteurization. Adopting High Pressure Pasteurization is an important step to ensure that our products meet the strictest quality and food safety standards."

Howlett stated, "Our commitment to consumers in the future is the same as it's been in the past – to offer Raw Frozen Diets made from the highest quality ingredients, made in our own plant in the Midwest, by people who care deeply about pet nutrition, health, and happiness."

If you are a consumer and have purchased one of these products, please return the unopened product to your retailer for a full refund or replacement. If your package has been opened, please dispose of the raw food in a safe manner by securing it in a covered trash receptacle. Then, bring your receipt (or the empty package in a sealed bag) to your local retailer for a full refund or replacement.

Consumers with additional questions can call the Nature's Variety dedicated Customer Care line 24 hours a day, 7 days a week at 800-374-3142. For additional resources about High Pressure Pasteurization or other Nature's Variety food safety protocols, visit www.naturesvariety.com.

James Dobson has given new meaning to the term bully pulpit.

On the occasion of his exit from Focus on the Family, let it be noted that the child psychologist built an evangelical empire on families' vulnerabilities. He launched his career urging parents to keep their kids in line by hitting them.

Published in 1970 as a challenge to the liberal child-rearing techniques popularized by Benjamin Spock, Dobson's first book, "Dare to Discipline," advocates forcefully combating rebelliousness. To illustrate his point about asserting his God-given authority over his family, he tells the story of disciplining his miniature dachshund, Sigmund Freud, with a belt. He encourages not only spanking kids, but also leaving belts around the house to remind them of the consequences of defiance.

A Dog's Rules For Christmas

1. Be especially patient with your humans during this time. They may appear to be more stressed-out than usual and they will appreciate long comforting dog leans.

2. They may come home with large bags of things they call gifts. Do not assume that all the gifts are yours.

3. Be tolerant if your humans put decorations on you. They seem to get some special kind of pleasure out of seeing how you look with fake antlers.

4. They may bring a large tree into the house and set it up in a prominent place and cover it with lights and decorations. Bizarre as this may seem to you, it is an important ritual for your humans, so there are some things you need to know: - Don't pee on the tree - Don't drink water in the container that holds the tree - Mind your tail when you are near the tree - If there are packages under the tree, even ones that smell interesting or that have your name on them, don't rip them open - Don't chew on the cord that runs from the funny-looking hole in the wall to the tree

5. Your humans may occasionally invite lots of strangers to come visit during this season. These parties can be lots of fun, but they also call for some discretion on your part: - Not all strangers appreciate kisses and leans - Don't eat off the buffet table - Beg for goodies subtly - Be pleasant, even if unknowing strangers sit on your sofa - Don't drink out of glasses that are left within your reach

6. Likewise, your humans may take you visiting. Here your manners will also be important: - Observe all the rules in #4 for trees that may be in other people's houses. (4a is particularly important) - Respect the territory of other animals that may live in the house - Tolerate children - Turn on your charm big time

7. A big man with a white beard and a very loud laugh may emerge from your fireplace in the middle of the night. DON'T BITE HIM!!

New, Fast-Evolving Rabies Virus Found -- And Spreading
Anne Minard
for National Geographic News

http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2009/05/090504-rabies-evolution.html

May 4, 2009
Evolving faster than any other new rabies virus on record, a northern-Arizona rabies strain has mutated to become contagious among skunks and now foxes, experts believe.

The strain looks to be spreading fast, commanding attention from disease researchers across the United States (U.S. map).

It's not so unusual for rabid animals to attack people on hiking trails and in driveways, or even in a bar—as happened March 27, when an addled bobcat chased pool players around the billiards table at the Chaparral in Cottonwood.

Nor is it odd that rabid skunks and foxes are testing positive for a contagious rabies strain commonly associated with big brown bats.

What is unusual is that the strain appears to have mutated so that foxes and skunks are now able to pass the virus on to their kin—not just through biting and scratching but through simple socializing, as humans might spread a flu.

Usually the secondary species—in this case, a skunk or fox bitten by a bat—is a dead-end host. The infected animal may become disoriented and even die but is usually unable to spread the virus, except through violent attacks.

(See pictures of infectious animals.)

Skunks have already been proven to be passively transmitting the strain to each other, as documented in a 2006 study in the journal Emerging Infectious Diseases.

Genetic studies suggest foxes are also spreading the new strain to each other, though the results have not yet been peer reviewed.

Unprecedented Evolution

When a skunk in Flagstaff, Arizona, died of rabies in 2001, wildlife specialists thought it was a "freak accident"—due to a one-off, run-of-the-mill bat bite—said Barbara Worgess, director of the Coconino County Health Department.

Lab tests later showed that the virus had adapted to the skunk physiology and become contagious within the species.


"It shouldn't have been able to pass from skunk to skunk," Worgess said.

Rabies has continued to crop up in skunks for eight years now, despite periodic vaccination campaigns. And so far this year, county officials have documented 14 rabid foxes in the Flagstaff area.


Now laboratory studies at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in Atlanta appear to confirm that the fox and skunk rabies viruses are mutated forms of the bat strain.

"We can see degrees of relatedness and patterns in their genetic codes," said Charles Rupprecht, chief of the rabies program for the CDC.

This sort of rapid evolution is exactly what worries public health officials when it comes to all manner of viruses. Virologists haven't seen such fast adaptation to a new species in rabies before.

"That's why Flagstaff is such an interesting story worldwide," said David Bergman, the U.S. Department of Agriculture's state director for Arizona.

"We're watching evolution in action on the ground."

Could Rabies Become Contagious in Humans?

The Arizona rabies situation is risky, because the infected species live so close to people.

Flagstaff's sprawl in recent decades has created a perfect opportunity for rabies to mutate into species-hopping forms, the CDC's Rupprecht said.

New-home construction, often in wooded areas, has actually increased habitat and food sources for bats, skunks, and foxes. Skunks live under houses, for example, and as diggers, make themselves at home on golf courses. Bats, meanwhile, are adept at living in attics and under loose shingles.

As more rabies-susceptible animals congregate in the region, more infections can take place. And each infection is an opportunity for the virus to mutate into a more virulent form—literally upping the odds of a new strain developing.

"That's a pattern that we see all over the United States," Rupprecht said. Similar suburban development in the eastern U.S. in the late 1970s, he noted, led to the spread of raccoon rabies from the Canadian border to the Deep South.

The risk of such a virulent strain jumping to people "should be a major concern," said Hinh Ly, a molecular virologist at the Emory University School of Medicine in Atlanta, who is not involved in studies of the Arizona outbreak.

But no one is expecting the rabies strain to become a contagious, swine flu-like epidemic among humans.

Flu viruses, for one thing, tend to infect people fast, so "vaccination after exposure would be too late to prevent infection," said Elisabeth Lawaczeck, the Arizona Department of Health Services' public health veterinarian.

Rabies takes its time before going from incubation to infection, so post-exposure rabies vaccinations tend to be effective at stopping the virus. If untreated, though, rabies, which attacks the central nervous system, is often fatal in humans.

What Next?

Rabies cases among animals are expected to increase as the spring and summer mating seasons bring potential pairs and rivals together. (Related: "Bat Rabies Threat Rises With Summer Temperatures.")

Already, Flagstaff has declared a 90-day pet quarantine—all dogs on leashes and all cats indoors—which began in April.

A wildlife vaccination plan could stem the virus's spread. Local and state officials enacted vaccination programs in northern Arizona in 2001 and 2005 but discontinued each effort after two years without rabies reports—the World Health Organization's standard for declaring an area rabies-free.

Now state vaccination funds have been reallocated, the USDA's Bergman said, and emergency funds are increasingly rare due to the recession.

Adding to the worries, Lawaczeck, the Arizona veterinary official, said she and other public heath officials were "very unsettled" when the first rabid fox reports came in from Flagstaff this year—and not just because of the evolutionary implications for rabies.

"This means a much wider spread of rabies," she said, "because [foxes] travel so much farther."

Pooch goes overboard, paddles 9.3 km to safety

Aussie pet plays Survivor - and wins

Apr 07, 2009 04:30 AM

LOS ANGELES TIMES

When Jan and Dave Griffith lost their beloved pet, an Australian cattle dog named Sophie Tucker, on a boating trip last November, they thought she was gone for good.

The Griffiths' boat hit choppy waters near the coastal Queensland town of Mackay, and Sophie Tucker fell into the ocean. "We were able to (backtrack) to look for her, but because it was a grey day, we just couldn't find her and we searched for well over an hour," Jan Griffith told the Brisbane Times.

"We thought that once she had hit the water she would have been gone because the wake from the boat was so big."

The couple was devastated. The dog, on the other hand, went into survival mode. She swam five nautical miles – about 9.3 km – to St. Bees Island, where her instincts kicked in.

She spent the following months surviving on a diet of wild goats and gaining infamy among the island's few human residents.

Last week, rangers caught the dog, whom they assumed to be feral. News reached the Griffiths that a cattle dog had been found on St. Bees, and they contacted rangers to see if it could be Sophie Tucker. Long story short: It could!

"We called the dog and she started whimpering and banging the cage and they let her out and she just about flattened us," Jan Griffith recalled of the reunion in an interview with the Australian Associated Press. "She wriggled around like a mad thing."

Although Sophie Tucker (who's named after the vaudeville star) had become vicious during her months of feral living, her owners say she has successfully made the transition back to "house dog" (and is enjoying the air conditioning).

Shanghai seller stops sales of suspect dog food
57 minutes ago
By ELAINE KURTENBACH
Associated Press Writer

(AP:SHANGHAI, China) A local distributor of a popular brand of dog food said Monday it had suspended sales of the product following reports that dogs who ate it had died from aflatoxin poisoning.

A customer service manager at Shanghai Yidi Pet Co. said the company stopped selling Optima brand dog food last week and notified its customers not to feed it to their pets after receiving complaints that dogs became sick after eating it.

"It's upsetting to see so many dogs getting sick from the food. There must be some serious problems," said Gu, who gave only his last name as is common with many media-shy Chinese.

The announcement came the same day Chinese regulators said they were stepping up food safety inspections ahead of the country's biggest holiday, Lunar New Year.

The campaign is China's latest effort to improve the country's shoddy food safety record. The manufacturing industry has been shaken by recurring scandals, including one last year where hundreds of thousands of children were sickened by milk contaminated by the industrial chemical melamine. The deaths of six babies have also been linked to the scandal.

Melamine was also blamed for killing dogs and cats in North America in 2007, after they ate pet food with a Chinese-made ingredient that was laced with the chemical.

Staff at a well-known local pet shop and clinic, the Shanghai Naughty Family Pet Co., said they had seen about 10 dogs fall sick after eating Optima dog food. Two had died and a third was gravely ill, said a staffer at the shop, who would not give her name because she was not authorized to speak to media.

Worried pet owners were coming in to have their pets checked after reading local news reports about the problem, they said.

All the sickened pets were believed to be suffering from aflatoxin poisoning. Aflatoxin is a naturally occurring chemical that comes from a fungus sometimes found on corn and other crops. It can cause severe liver damage. It was unclear how the dog food might have been contaminated, though some reports said it might have spoiled in storage before reaching retailers' shops.

A sales person at Optima Co., the local representative for the product, said the dog food had been sent for analysis, but he would give no details.

"I'm not authorized to speak about this," said the man, who gave only his surname, Zhang.

Ryan McLaughlin, a Canadian living in the eastern Chinese city of Suzhou, publicized the problem after his own 1-year-old golden retriever, Addie, fell sick after eating Optima dog food.

"When it's an imported dog food, you don't expect this sort of thing to happen," Ryan, who comes from Welland, Canada, said in a phone interview. "Here we were paying the extra cash to try to ensure she was healthy and instead it made her sick," he said. Addie died on Jan. 5.

Tainted products scandals in the past have centered on Chinese-made foods that were cut with chemicals such as melamine to hide the fact that they had been watered down to boost profits. Melamine, like protein, is high in nitrogen, and was used to fool tests for protein levels.

While Optima is the name of an American dog food brand, it was unclear if the food sold in China came from the U.S.

Gu, of the local distributor, said only that his supplier was based in Taiwan.

Zhang said the product his company sold came from "somewhere in Australia."

In the United States, Optima products are made by Nashville, Tennessee-based Doane Pet Care Co.

Doane's U.S. operations were acquired in 2006 by Mars Inc., which makes Pedigree brand pet foods. The company's Web site does not list any international operations, and it was unclear if Doane was the manufacturer of the brand sold in China.

Mars Inc.'s regional office did not immediately respond to a call and e-mailed inquiries on Monday. Doane's phones rang unanswered before business hours Monday.

Calls to China's food and drug safety agency rang unanswered late Monday.

Authorities have struggled to clamp down on tainted products because of murky supply chains and numerous small, sometimes illegally operated establishments, which are hard to monitor.

Health Ministry spokesman Mao Qun'an said Monday that inspectors would target supermarkets, restaurants and food additive producing factories in seven provinces, including Hebei, the heart of last year's melamine-tainted milk scandal.

Amazingly true story. Here is the Wiki for Hachiko, there was only 30 Akitas left at that time and because of Hachiko's story the breed became very popular in Japan and was kept alive.

sad video. What a true
love the dog has.

[Shizoku]

If you're an animal lover check this video out on youtube. It's a true story of an akita and his owner in 1920's Japan. The dog would wait for him everyday at the train station at 3 pm. Sadly his owner died at work in 1925 and Hachiko still waited everyday for years at the train station, hoping to see his owner again. Hachiko died at the train station waiting for his best friend in 1935.

He is the purr master! lol Burt is a lap kitty for sure, always happy and always purring, and eating of course.

[NovoMira]

OMG...what a perfect pair!

Can you imagine what their offspring would have looked like? It looks like Burt's head is too small for his body too...just like BooBoo's!

He's just as purdy though as mine is...beautiful eyes.

Is he a lap kitty too?

You Don't Have To Own A Cat To Appreciate This One! You don't even have to like 'em!

We were dressed and ready to go out for the New Years Eve Party.
We turned on a night light, turned the answering machine on, covered
Our pet parakeet and put the cat in the backyard.

We phoned the local cab company and requested a taxi.
The taxi arrived and we opened the front door to leave the house.
The cat we put out in the yard, scoots back into the house.
We didn't want the cat shut in the house because she always tries
To eat the bird.

My wife goes out to the taxi, while I went inside to get the cat.
The cat runs upstairs, with me in hot pursuit. Waiting in the cab,
My wife doesn't want the driver to know that the house will be empty
For the night. So,she explains to the taxi driver that I will be out
soon, 'He's just going upstairs to say Goodbye to my mother.'

A few minutes later, I get into the cab. 'Sorry I took so long ,'
I said, as we drove away. 'That stupid b*tch was hiding under the bed.
I had to poke her with a coat hanger to get her to come out! She tried
to take off, so I grabbed her by the neck. Then, I had to wrap her in a
blanket to keep her from scratching me. But it worked! I hauled her
fat azz downstairs and threw her out into the back yard!'

The cab driver hit a parked car.

[opmoney]

Ok maybe i was overstating the obvious hehehe

[NovoMira]

I K N O W!

LOL

[opmoney]

OMG BooBoo is h u g e!

[NovoMira]

He is a she...

I can't resist her big, beautiful...begging eyes.

She's doing it to me right now. I'm not looking, I'm not looking...not listening to her pitiful meows either...
