Hello, allow me to introduce myself. My name is Zoey. Not to mention my unique ability to create web pages I want to tell you something else I realized this past week that there is a very real reason I am happy I ended up with the owners I did, and it’s Dog Training and Products by Zoey Dog because they seem to be tuned into what’s going on with me at all times. Some friends of mine have confided in me about some of their dog health issues, but because of the language barriers, they can’t tell their owners. And, unfortunately for them, their owners just don’t pay as much attention to what’s going on with them as mine does with me, I guess.
For example, I know Lulu, the older
Bulldog down the street, has an ankle problem. She is
slightly overweight, and
she is an older dog, so it could be either causing her ankle
difficulties, or maybe a combination of both. If
her owners were more tuned in to her needs,
though, they would know something is wrong despite the
language barrier between dog and man. If, when her excessive barking constantly
drives the whole neighborhood crazy, they would take it as a
sign that something is wrong instead of just sending
their children out to
play with her, they might be able to do something about her
pain. While the children do distract her from her pain for
a while, her barking starts
again as soon as they go back inside or leave for school.
She doesn’t even have to tell me this-I can hear her from my
house and we live a few blocks apart. Maybe
her owners think she is bored, but if they
would just pay a little more attention, they would realize
it’s an ankle problem. Then they would know to buy her
weight management dog food, or put her on all-natural health
supplements for older dogs dealing with joint
pain.
Another friend of mine, Peanut
(the Chihuahua that lives in the backyard behind
mine) was telling me just yesterday about stomach pain she
has been experiencing recently. She has tried and tried to
tell her owners but they don’t seem to understand. If they
were paying attention to the changes in her needs to go
outside and do her business, or if they didn’t free-feed
her, maybe they would see that she hasn’t eaten very much in
a couple of days. Then they would know to either switch her
food to a different brand or maybe even take her to the vet
to see if it is something more serious. They haven’t
noticed, though, and I really hope she gets better and it’s
not something serious.
So after observing my two friends’
experiences, I have come to the conclusion that I absolutely
love my owners. They seem to somehow always know what is
going on with me and my health, even though I can’t speak to
them in their language. Just recently, my fur began to shed
more than normal. And, since it’s getting close to winter,
this isn’t the typical time of year to shed so much. I was
itchy all over, and when I would rub my body up against the
couch to scratch the areas I couldn’t reach, there would be
lumps of dark brown hair left where I had been. But,
thankfully, my owners aren’t like Peanut’s parents or
Lulu’s owners. They
noticed right away, making sure to start brushing my coat once a day with a slicker brush to help remove the knots and sooth the itching as brushing helps to massage the skin. They also started feeding me a vitamin E
supplement and they started mixing in some healthy coat food
with my regular food once a day. At first I wasn’t happy
about the chewable tablets, because I wasn’t sure how it
would taste, but after I tried one, I realized they are
almost as good as bacon treats!
Now, only a week later, my fur already
feels better and the itching has stopped! So I am feeling
very thankful for my owners right now. I know Lulu’s and
Peanut’s owners love
them, but I’m still glad I have mine. They pay so much
attention to me it’s almost like we don’t speak two
different languages!
Please read my articles to the right so
you too can get in tune with your dog - I know it has
already helped Peanut and Lulu!!
