A Dog Knows...

(Sharing a funny email)

Have you ever heard that a dog 'knows' when an earthquake is about to hit?

Have you ever heard that a dog can 'sense' when a tornado is stirring up, even 20 miles away?

Do you remember hearing that before the December tsunami struck Southeast Asia, dogs started running frantically away from the seashore, at breakneck speed?

Do you know that dogs can detect cancer and other serious illnesses and danger of fire?

Somehow they always know when they can 'go for a ride' before you even ask.

How do those dogs and cats get home from hundreds of miles away?

I'm a firm believer that animals - and especially cats and dogs - have keen insights into the Truth.

And you can't tell me that dogs can't sense a potentially terrible disaster well in advance.

Simply said, a dog just KNOWS when something isn't right... when impending doom is upon us.

They'll always try to warn us!

We should have listened.

Pet’s First Aid

By Terry Orr

Keep your family pet safe and healthy.

So how many of our wonderful readers have ever heard of Pet First Aid Awareness Month? It is news to me – as a pet owner for decades – wonder how I missed the boat?  One of my wife’s friends is over; she’s a Professional Dog Walker. One requirement of a professional dog walker is to be Pet First Aid certified. Learn something new every day!

The American Red Cross provides a wealth of good information regarding Pet First Aid and I highly recommend visiting and learning what they are providing. After all, most pets are like having children in our homes – please take the time to learn how to help then in need.  Thank you!
