Dog Day at Catalyst Exhibits, The Duchess rides in

Our pet’s become our family, no doubt about it.  Catalyst Exhibits holds our employee Dog Day every year before Christmas.  This year was no exception as the dogs, about 20 of them came in every shape and breed.  From mutt’s to pure breeds, they roamed the halls.

We were hopeful that we would have Duchess - who was attacked recently by coyote’s right outside her backdoor.   The little trooper looked a little bit roughed up but it did not stop her from joining in.

There are several things to be cautioned about during the colder months as alot of these wild coyotes are in search of food and as our towns develop and grow, pushing them out of their natural habitats and right into ours.  Please take precautions and don’t say it won’t happen to me.

It is fascinating to watch the dog’s interact with one another and yet there are the shy one’s, such as Bodie, who last year waited by the front door until his mom returned from an errand.  This year, he followed her everywhere.

Carl - I have to mention Carl, he was with my cube mate, and I have never seen a more adorable little face.  He sat nicely and visited me each hour. 

We as consumers rely on the independant representatives from the Pet Industry to supply us with the fun gadgets, intereseting pet products and educational information to keep our animals safe:

Remember: Cold Weather Hazards such as Antifreeze, Liquid Potpourri, Ice Melting Products and Rat and Mouse Bait.

February 14th, 2008 - Global Pet Expo  will be hosted at the San Diego Convention Center - as previously posted there are several items to avoid feeding your animals during the holidays.  There are several other items that are around our house during the holidays and winter seasons that can cause issues for our pets as well.

Holiday Hazards:

Christmas Tree Water (may contain fertilizers and bacteria)

Electric Cords

Ribbons & Tinsel

Batteries

Glass Ornaments

There are several area veterinary facilities in the Crystal Lake area, if you run into an emergency during off hours, you can contact them.
