Yes, we now have Hill's Prescription Diet
Therapeutic Weight Reduction Program. Make your life easy. This has premeasured portions of both the food and the biscuit treats.
This food is low in fat, high in fiber and high in carnitine, lysine ( to help burn fat while maintaining lean muscle mass) and has added antioxidants.

Yes, FLEAS are creepy. These fleas were obtained by taking a flea comb (fine toothed comb) and running down the back of a flea-ridden dog (yecchh). They are in a zipper-locked plastic bag and you will note they are running around in circles because they can't jump up. Look at the size of the back legs! They jump really high. They can jump from the ground onto your dog. Then they can jump onto you next if you disturb them. The only good flea is a dead flea! Click on the picture of the fleas to see the video of live (and dead) fleas. More to come.

Meet Dr. Carpino
So far, so good on the video stuff. We are working on a heartworm segment, and one on how to pill a dog and how to pill a cat. Below is our first one on which is a case you can follow. If you have any suggestions, please let us know at Katie@animalandbird.com. Remember Katie is handling our email - so please cut her some slack on typing back emails to you :-).
