Yesterday was Happy Birthday Day for Duke and Duchess.  They turned six.  It feels like they were just born. Having them born in the house was an amazing experience for my husband and I.  We helped with the delivery so we are very connected with them. I am posting their birth day photo and their Birthday Photo. 

When it comes to training your dog, good behavior and praise go hand in hand.Using punishment to achieve a desired behavior can be confusing to your dog and can erode your dog’s trust in you. Instead, reward good behavior with positive reinforcement in the form of praise, a food treat, or a toy. Offer the reward immediately and consistently. Your dog is eager to please you, so you don’t need to give food or toys for every good behavior. But always let your dog know when he or she has done something good by giving enthusiastic verbal praise immediately.Love your pets.

Second & Third-Hand Smoke -  Risky for Pets!  (And humans too)

Information from www.mypetpleasures.com that I felt was necessary to read.
Everyone has heard of second-hand smoke, which consists of carcinogens that are inhaled when near a cigarette smoker.  Third-hand smoke is the lingering toxins found on skin, hair, clothes, carpeting, walls, etc, that are dangerous to everyone who is in proximity to the contaminated surface - including the pets…  

A recent study by Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory in Berkeley, CA, has uncovered the risks of third hand smoke.  A few years ago, researchers began paying close attention to the potential health effects of third hand smoke, which is a thin layer of toxic substances from tobacco smoke that settles on surfaces long after cigarettes have been extinguished.   The Berkeley scientists, however, are the first to find that nitrous acid, an indoor air pollutant created by gas appliances, vehicle engines and tobacco smoke, reacts with nicotine found on surfaces. 

The health hazards of tobacco smoking and second hand smoke are well known, with research associating inhalation of the smoke with elevated risk of cancer and heart disease.  Third hand smoke, however, enters the body via a different route, either through skin exposure, dust inhalation and ingestion, which poses an “unappreciated health risk”.  Children, infants and pets are of particular concern, since they have far more exposure to contaminated surfaces through absorption.
And, smoking outside does not eliminate the exposure to the carcinogens, since nicotine from smoke adheres to clothing and skin and it can be carried back inside.  Nor does opening windows or using a fan help much, since nicotine, a sticky molecule, readily clings to surfaces.

This is serious!  Consider detoxing the environment to create a healthier place to live and thrive.  Pets, children and infants require intervention / attention when it comes to the environment.  

It was fun dressing the doggies for the party.  You can find all your need
