I guess this is the first post on dog food blog that has nothing to do with dog food. However, I think this is important enough to share with all dog owners so please allow for a little side step.
It’s nearly 2008 and we welcome the New Year with a lot of fireworks. For a lot of animals this is not a pleasant time of the year. The unexpected loud bangs and flashes scare them. Some dogs do fine and don’t seem to notice the fireworks. But still, fear of fireworks is fairly common. Dogs that are afraid show signs such as shaking, trembling, more drooling than usual, some dogs start barking or howling, others may try to hide or get away. Also you dog may loose bladder or bowel control or experience temporary diarrhea because of the stress.

On the Members Only pages on Best Dog Food Guide, I have posted a special audio file you can use to familiarize your dog with fireworks sounds.
You need to know the password to be able to download the file. If you are not yet a member then get your free subscription to my HoundBytes e-zine. On the Members Only page you’ll also have access to the back issues. Open the December issue to find the instructions that go along with the audio file.

As a bonus you’ll also receive two free e-books.
