EAGLES SOAR BACK! Reprint from Wisconsin Natural Resources Website, dnr.wi.gov
Editors Note: With celebrating our countries birth in July, we decided this month to bring our national bird, who dispite its problems with DDT and being hunted is making a great comeback! The infomaton in this article comes from the Wisconsin DNR's Features section which highlights the DNR's 40 years of protecting Wisconsin's Natural Heritage. For more information on Bald Eagles, please go to: dnr.wi.gov/ news/features/feature. asp?id=2&article=2. National symbol soars again Bald eagles have enjoyed a remarkable recovery in Wisconsin and nationwide since being placed on the state and federal endangered species lists in the 1970s. Eagles were removed from Wisconsin's endangered list in 1997 and from the federal list in 2007.
Roots of the recovery Bald eagles' recovery nationwide has its roots in Wisconsin. Unlimited shooting and habitat destruction in Wisconsin's early statehood led to declining bald eagle numbers, and organochlorine pesticides like DDT accelerated the problem. DDT, which was extensively used on farms and forests during the 1950s and 1960s, caused eagle egg shells to thin and break, resulting in few eaglets hatching. Wisconsin's groundbreaking 1969 hearings on DDT resulted in DNR ruling that the chemical was an environmental pollutant. That put the pressure on nationally and help force a national ban starting in 1972 on DDT. Wisconsin also helped spark the national recovery by supplying eaglets to other states.

ABOUT OUR COVER MODEL
EDITORS NOTES Dear Readers, Thank you for reading the July, 2013 issue of Pet Journal. Be sure to look for Pet Journal this month at Midwest Truck Series Races and at the events and fundraisers put on by our local rescues and shelters! Next month, Pet Journal will have a table at the Family Pet Fair and Expo, held at the Brown County Fair Grounds, see the ad on page 20 for more information.
Our cover model for July is the NEW Zoo's Bald Eagle, Sierra. Sierra came to the NEW Zoo from the Audubon Society of Portland in early 2000. She was found with a substantial injury to her left wing which has left her unable to fly for the rest of her life. The Bald Eagle was once an endangered species due to chemicals such as DDT causing the birds to lay eggs with weak shells which were crushed during incubation. Bans on these chemicals and other measures helped Bald Eagle populations to recover very well and are no longer listed as endangered or threatened. For more on Bald Eagle's see our cover story.

HOLISTIC AND NATURAL OPTIONS FOR YOU AND YOUR PETS
NATURAL ANXIETY RELIEF FOR YOUR PET by Cheryl Larson, Holistic & Natural Columnist clarson@petjournalmidwest.com Animals experience nervousness, emotional stress, anxiety and terror just like their human companions. Anxiety leads to behaviors like barking, pacing, hiding or gnawing, but also puts stress on the immune system causing health problems as well. Herbs can be very beneficial as a natural calmer because they are mild, effective and good for the body acting as a tonic to the nervous system. Chamomile is a strong sedative that also calms the tummy and will help your pet sleep. The tea form is convenient. Lavender is another sedative that works as a tea, but also as a form of aromatherapy. Lemon Balm, Passion flower, Valerian and Hops are all herbal options for anxiety and stress. Blends of these herbs are often very effective and work together to calm the brain, nervous system and muscles. If you have tried the basics and your pet is still handicapped by anxiety, look for products that combine herbs with GABA and L-Theanine to calm the brain. Homeopathic antianxiety products for pets are also available and can
be customized to address very specific issues including emotional stress and trauma. You may also want to consider sound therapy. Breakthrough research shows that the canine nervous system is extremely sensitive to sound – and that special arrangements of classical music have a profound soothing impact on anxious dogs. Research conducted with 150 dogs showed that psychoacoustically designed classical piano arrangements induced calmness in 70 percent of dogs in shelters or kennels and 85 percent of dogs in households. Music CD’s are now available to calm puppies and senior dogs or to habituate and desensitize dogs to fireworks and thunderstorms. Each CD addresses the special needs of each group and comes with instruction booklets to help you.
REIKI FOR ALL ANIMALS: PART 2 by Ann Noyce, Pet Journal Contributor
A technique called sonic anchoring is used to create an emotional sense of safety that arises from familiarity. Calming treats are also available for cats as well. Cats like the flavor and it is very effective in times of transition or stress. Feline interstitial cystitis (a leading cause of euthanasia) research now shows the leading cause to be stress. Change in environment, strangers, different food, new animals, loud noises and illness are all major contributors. Another tool used to comfort pets is the Thundershirt. The shirt is available for both cats and dogs and applies gentle, constant pressure on the torso with an amazing calming effect. Pressure has been used for many years to successfully reduce anxiety. A calming cap is also available for dogs overwhelmed by visual stimulus. Made from a sheer fabric to filter your dog’s vision, it will reduce nervousness or hostility.
For kitties, a new music CD is also available using the latest scientific information to help cats with anxiety. Tonal and tempo selections and solo piano music is combined with You may also want to frequency ranges adjusted consider reducing the to a cat’s auditory range. amount of carbohydrates

“All beings seek for happiA few months ago, dur- realized that Chester, the ness; so let your compas- ing one of my regular visits donkey, had also joined us sion extend itself to all.” to Ivelolharele Retirement in the Reiki space. With ~ Mahavamsa
Reiki, which has compassion as a foundation, is a complementary modality that can be offered or “extended” to ALL animals, regardless of their situation. In Part 1, I focused on how Reiki addresses whatever issues the animal may need most at that moment, even if the issues are unknown to the practitioner. This month I will focus on how Reiki is perfect in multiple animal situations. Many times when I am offering Reiki to an animal, I am in a place where there are multiple animals. This may be in a home setting or at an animal sanctuary or shelter. I may be there to offer Reiki to a specific animal, but I am able to offer Reiki to all of the animals at the same time. I just invite all of them to join me, and all will benefit (even the humans that are present) in whatever way they choose

Sanctuary in Chilton, Wisconsin, I was standing in a paddock with 5 horses. As I began offering Reiki to these sweet horses, Lyric and Harry were grazing a few feet away to my left, Smokey was grazing a few feet away to my right, and Taffy and Turtle were inside a run-in on one corner of the barn. I stood there quietly and invited all of them to join me in the Reiki energy. As we shared this quiet space, Lyric, Harry and Smokey continued grazing, each experiencing the energy in his or her own way. After about ten minutes, Taffy and Turtle came out of the run-in and began grazing. Then, Smokey came forward and stood in front of me for about 5 minutes. He was followed by Lyric and then Harry and then Taffy and Turtle. One-byone, each horse took turns moving forward to stand right in front of me and more fully connect with me and the Reiki energy. As each finished, he/she moved away to continue grazing or to return to the run-in. When the last horse had moved away, I

PET PRODUCT REVIEWS by Seth Minaker, Pet Journal Columnist, sminaker@petjournalmidwest.com It's a late summer this year! At least here in North Eastern Wisconsin, the weather has been very pleasant, minimal bugs, and clear skies. Here we really don't have much to complain about. Many of you however, are probably trying your best to stay cool. Temperatures, especially in southern Wisconsin have been quite high. Dogs, who are usually active, are the ones suffering the most. Dogs lack efficient ways of cooling down. Since they don't sweat (except from their pads) their only way of releasing body heat is panting. It works, but takes energy that was originally used for activity -- just to stay cool. Dogs deemed as "lazy" in summer usually aren't, just reserving their energy to not overheat. Helping your dog stay cool during the hot days will keep him healthier, more energetic, and in better spirits. While pondering that, take a look at some products to help your dog beat the summer heat! RuffWear® Swamp Cooler: Let's start by keeping your dog cool wherever he is and whatever he's doing. Although jackets are usually thought of as a way to warm up, the Swamp Cooler is a jacket that actually cools down. Swamp Cooler works via evaporative cooling (transition of liquid water to water vapor) and heat reflection to provide a hassle free method of cooling your dog off - just put the coat on him and you’re done! Swamp Cooler features a 3 layer active fit construction, easy visibility reflective trim, and side buckles for easy on/off. Guaranteed to be a winner with you and your dog. RuffWear® Swamp Cooler is available in 6 Sizes and 1 color (Graphite Gray). $54.95

Hugs® Hydro Ball: Why not also incorporate cooling off into playtime? The Hugs® Hydro Ball does just that. Hydro Ball is a hollow rubber ball with a foam core. The specially designed rubber exterior has holes on it, all around the ball. Just soak the ball for a few seconds and the foam interior draws and holds the water. You're ready to play! After soaking Hydro Ball, it squirts water when bit or squeezed, making it especially fun for playful dogs. Its strength and durability make it a great fetch toy, and it can even be frozen to slowly release water as it thaws and your dog chews. Although simple, this toy has won awards for its great design. Hugs® Hydro Ball is available in 1 size (2") and 1 color (blue). $8.99

Whatever methods you use, or products you buy, ALWAYS be sure your dog has plenty of fresh water to drink. Staying hydrated is vital to a dogs health and shouldn't be compromised. Large dogs on a hot day can easily drink more than you can fit in an average bowl. Consider getting an automatic dog fountain if you'll be away for a period of time, or if you are not able to check him often. That way, he'll always have plenty of fresh water to drink. Whatever you do this summer, stay safe and have fun! Until next month!

New York and their three sons, two of whom have autism. This book covers the needs of the above subject matter in all animals, as you can tell by the "Contents" page of the book from dogs, cats, horses, cows, pigs, etc., etc. I especially found the section of picking out a cat -- pgs. 76 & 77 an eye opener because it was so intricately explained, giving the future cat owner a "leg up" on choosing a cat. The same details to use in selecting any future animal in your life, I feel this book is a very good "read".

This is Phoenix and she really needs our help! She was found as a tiny kitten in the corner of a horse stall all by herself. The wonderful women that found her saved her life. She fed and cared
for this baby that was way too young to be without her mother. Phoenix never would have survived because she was either born or was injured shortly after birth as she only has two (2) front legs. She is now four (4) years old and is in great need of a surgery to become healthy. The volunteers at Saving Paws didn’t think twice about helping Phoenix as she has survived this long and we felt that we owed it to her to help her.

She loves being petted and groomed and enjoys having her neck rubbed. Meeko has a high pitched purr, which she likes to show off when she's content sitting on a lap.

FIRST RETURNING KIRTLAND'S WARBLER FLEDGLING DOCUMENTED IN WISCONSIN Reprint from Wisconsin Natural Resources Website, dnr.wi.gov ADAMS COUNTY, Wis. – A Kirtland’s warbler that hatched in Wisconsin last year and was banded before its first migration has returned to its birthplace in Adams County, providing a significant milestone in efforts to help boost populations of this federally endangered songbird, state and federal bird experts say. “This is the first time we’ve been able to document that a bird hatched in Adams County has returned to the area,” says Kim Grveles, a Department of Natural Resources avian ecologist. It’s a very encouraging sign that Wisconsin is providing suitable and successful breeding habitat for these birds.” Chris Mensing, endangered species biologist with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, also hailed the news. “It’s exciting to see Kirtland’s warblers returning to habitat in Wisconsin. With endangered species, you never want to put all your eggs in one basket. Having a successful breeding population outside the core Kirtland's warbler range in Michigan helps protect the species from catastrophic events.” The Kirtland’s warbler was placed on the federal endangered species list about 40 years ago, when its population dropped to about 300 birds. Until 1995, Kirtland’s warblers were found almost exclusively in the northern Lower Peninsula of Michigan and were struggling to recover from a steep decline in populations in the 1960s and 1970s due to habitat loss and trouble from the brown-headed cowbirds. Starting in the late 1990s, the protections and efforts made under that federal law enabled the Kirtland’s warbler to start expanding its breeding territory to Wisconsin, Michigan's Upper Peninsula and Ontario. The warblers have been observed in several counties in Wisconsin, and nests have been confirmed in Adams and Marinette counties. In 2012, Kirtland’s warblers were recorded in five counties in Wisconsin (Adams, Douglas, Bayfield,
Vilas, and Marinette), and Get current and past rea minimum of 24 singing ports on Kirtland’s related male warblers were docu- management activities on mented in the state. the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service website.

The returning bird was discovered in Adams County on June 3, 2013, by nest monitors Valarie Michel and Daryl Christensen. The bird had been hatched at the same site in 2012 and was captured and banded in August 2012 by Ron Refsnider and Joel Trick, both retired from US Fish and Wildlife Service. Refsnider estimates the chances of finding this individual at the same site a year after hatching was less than 15 percent.

TRUMPETER SWANS & CYGNETS The NEW Zoo's Trumpeter Swans recently had Cygnets! The parents are Abner (male, 13 years old, from the Akron Zoological Park, Ohio) and Cecilia (female, 12 years old, from the Great Plains Zoo, South Dakota). The largest species of waterfowl in the world, the Trumpeter Swan was once a critically endangered species by the early 20th century. These birds were heavily hunted both as game and a source for feathers. Many groups have worked to reintroduce this species back into its former range and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife service recently reported a 400% increase in populations over the last 30 years. The Trumpeter Swan is no long listed as endangered or threatened.
AT THE
NEW ZOO
The NEW Zoo partners annually with the Iowa DNR to release our cygnets. We transport them safely to Iowa, and their DNR has a program that essentially “teaches” the swan babies how to migrate, and then they are released into the wild, to become members of the wild population. We have had a lot of success with this program. Our mom and dad swans typically hatch anywhere from about 7 to 10 eggs every year. This year, we have nine cygnets.

SCRAPPY Greetings everyone! I’m back from my vacation at the puppy spa and I’m raring to get back to my column. Hope everyone is enjoying the wonderful summer weather we’re having….finally! The end of May and the first part of June were kinda sketchy, weather wise. Warnings about frost and hail were concerning me. I thought I was going to be forced to open up a can of rabid pit bull on everyone. Fortunately, for you, that will not be necessary. As I am dictating this column, it’s a beautiful sunny day. The birds are singing, the rabbits are hopping happily (for now!) around the yard, and all is right with the world. Well, at least for the next five or so months. Then it back to frozen paws, frozen tails, and frozen noses. Winter wonderland, feh! As I like to remind everyone, repeatedly, over the summer months. I hope you are being kind to your four legged buddies and leaving them at home on these hot summer days.

A good physical examination and history often lends clues as to the underlying disease process but sometimes ancillary testing is needed to make a definitive diagnosis. A good example would be respiratory diseases. Many people consider any coughing or nasal discharge to be a “resp”. “Resp infections” are generally assumed to be bacterial in nature but commonly have an underlying disease process such as a viral infection (paramyxovirus, arenavirus/inclusion body disease virus) present. Testing to rule out other causes of “resp infections” is therefore very important.

by Dr. Kim Everson, Ask the Vet Columnist ask-the-vet@petjournalmidwest.com Question: Every year around this time my Retriever gets terrible recurrent infections in her ears. I’ve tried changing her dog food, but it hasn’t helped. What can I do to keep this from happening?
Answer: Ear infections are a common canine complaint. Indeed, some ear problems do stem from food ingredient allergies and finding a novel protein or hypoallergenic diet can help reduce inflammation and infection in the ears. Simply switching dog food brands or buying a premium dog food will rarely do the trick. Moreover, since your dog’s ear infections occur with some predictOverall, boas generally ability in the springtime, have good temperaments it is more likely a seasonal and make good pets. inhalant allergy or lifestyle change that is causing the ear trouble.

For example, if your dog spends more time swimming as the weather warms up, her infections may be related to moisture in the ears. You might be able to head off infection by cleaning her ears after swimming with a gentle, pH-balanced cleanser that can prevent moistureloving yeast from overpopulating the ear canals. Even if your dog is not a swimmer, damp or hot humid weather of spring and summer can create a perfect environment for yeast and bacteria to grow inside her ear canal, especially if she has heavy, floppy ears. Weekly ear cleaning with a veterinarian-approved cleanser again might prevent infection from occurring. While the internet abounds with homemade remedies for cleaning dogs’ ears, you should proceed cautiously. Pouring straight rubbing alco-
hol, hydrogen peroxide or vinegar, for example, into your dog’s ears can be extremely painful in the face of infection and can create more inflammation than it treats. Flushing the ears with soap and water should be avoided because “water is the enemy” of an infection-prone ear! Your veterinarian can recommend a safe and effective maintenance ear cleaner for your dog. If you notice your dog’s ears becoming itchy when your own seasonal allergies flare up, you can bet there is a correlation. Whereas most people and a small percentage of dogs with “hay fever” get stuffy sinuses, nasal drainage, sneezing, coughing and itchy eyes, most dogs get generalized itchy skin. Foot chewing, head shaking, and over-licking the belly often signal an allergy process. Allergic inflammation causes itchiness which causes chewing and scratching which causes infection which in turn causes itchiness and the cycle self-perpetuates! If these symptoms happen all year-round, your dog may have a food allergy and/or inhalant allergies to indoor allergens such as dust mites, tobacco smoke, molds and certain textiles. If the itchy ears and skin happen only during the spring, summer or fall, the problem is a seasonal allergy.
capsules, the same fish oil capsules people take to promote heart, skin and joint health. Incidentally, the same cannot be said of flaxseed and its derivatives. Canines simply cannot break down flaxseed to extract the same health benefits people do. Your dog’s daily dose of fish oil may be higher than you expect so check with your veterinarian. Avoidance of allergy triggers can be helpful if you’ve been able to identify them. Some people see a surge in their dog’s itchiness right after mowing the grass and therefore reason the pet has a grass allergy. Keeping your pet off freshly mowed grass and keeping the windows shut and the air conditioner on may reduce an allergy flare up. Rarely is it that easy to avoid allergens. They circulate on the air currents and accost us and our pets even inside our homes. Dogs with severe seasonal or year-round allergies may benefit from allergy testing and hypo-sensitization treatment, a series of injections designed to reprogram the immune system to stop over-reacting to environmental allergens. Finally, the same types of medications relied on by millions of human allergy sufferers to relieve their hay fever symptoms — antihistamines — may control allergy symptoms and prevent ear infection in your dog. There may even be an antihistamine in your medicine cabinet right now that will help your dog, but PLEASE CONSULT YOUR VETERINARIAN FIRST. Decongestants, for example, are toxic to dogs.
A dog with ear infections secondary to seasonal allergies may benefit from antihistamines, avoidance and omega-3 fatty acid supplementation in addition to regular ear cleansing described above. A good source of inflammation-reducing omega-3 fatty acids for dogs is found in fish oil see

ZOO NEWS SUMMER HOURS MEAN MORE TIME TO ENJOY THE NEW ZOO
RETURN OF THE WOLVES AT THE WILDLIFE SANCTUARY!
by Angela Kawski, Education and Volunteer Coordinator, NEW Zoo
by Lori Bankson, Curator of Animals, Bay Beach Wildlife Sanctuary
As summer has OFFICIALLY started June 21st, we just wanted to remind readers of the Pet Journal that the NEW Zoo is currently open DAILY from 9am to 8pm. Admission is also half-price every Wednesday through August from 6pm to 8pm. We have a lot of Summer Activities going on for you to enjoy every day, too.
Here at the Bay Beach Wildlife Sanctuary, we are happy to announce the return of Gray Wolves to our Wolf Exhibit! Sadly in April, we lost our 17 year old wolf Mowa-sa. He was born here with his 3 brothers and we were lucky to be with “the boys” through their lives here at the Wildlife Sanctuary as they grew and became beautiful symbols of wildlife. Knowing how important the wolf is to Wisconsin’s history and landscape, we decided it was time to improve our exhibit and be available to any other wolves that need a home.
For starters, you can observe our FREE Amphitheater presentations. These occur daily at 12pm, 2pm, and 4pm, and include live animals that guests will learn about and then have a chance to meet up close and personal. These presentations occur daily outside in our amphitheater, located near our Carousel. When weather doesn’t permit us to have animals outdoors, when it’s too hot or too wet, for example, then we will still have an animal available for guests to meet inside our Education & Conservation Building at those same times.
good at catching!) Don’t forget, our Giraffe Feeding Experience is also open twice a day, every day of the year. Through the end of August, feeding hours are 10am to 1pm and again from 2:30pm to 5:30pm. You don’t need to purchase food to get up close and meet the giraffes, but if you want a chance to feed them yourself, it costs only $1. We guarantee there is nowhere else in the Midwest where you can get this kind of experience for that kind of price.
So take advantage of the NEW Zoo’s extended Summer Hours this year and enjoy some of the cooler weather of the early evening hours. We’re also open every day of the year – including holidays like the Fourth of July and Labor Day. And remember, we’re open daily from 9am to 8pm through the end of August, so there At the end of April, we are still plenty of opportunities for you to come out were notified that there were 2 little wolf pup feand take a visit. males that needed a home We also offer a free — they were born at a Otter Chat every day at 11:00am.

Twice a day, we also offer Pelican Feedings. The Pelican Feedings are a chance for zoo visitors to learn more about these impressive birds, and how you can help protect them in their native habitats. Pelican feedings are free for zoo guests to view, but guests also have the opportunity to purchase tickets if you want to get a chance to feed the pelicans yourself! The feedings occur daily at 1:30pm and again at 6:30pm, and it costs only $2 per ticket for a chance to toss a pelican two fish. (You’ll find our pelicans are quite

sanctuary that could not keep the wolf pups. After a series of interviews, Bay Beach Wildlife Sanctuary was chosen as the home for these 2 little ladies — but the sanctuary they were born at was in Florida! When the pups were ready to travel, some of our dedicated volunteers and staff members made the trek to bring the girls to their new homes in the beginning of May.
Since their arrival, we have worked with the wolves to get to know them and for them to get used to the public that will now be a part of their lives in Green Bay. Along with our veterinarians at Gentle Vet Animal Hospital, we have been working with the wolves to help them grow healthy and get ready to move to their new home — the Wolf Exhibit! You can check out our Facebook page through our website at baybeachwildlife.com to see when they will be released into their new home in mid-July. With help from our partners at the Oneida Nation, we have been getting ready for the big celebration — and we hope you can all join us in welcoming these ladies to their new home!

PRESS RELEASES WINNEGAMIE DOG CLUB AWARDS AKC COMPANION ANIMAL GRANT RECIPIENT Press Release The Winnegamie Dog Club had the honor of presenting a check in the amount of $3,000 to this year's local recipient of the AKC Companion Animal Recovery grant at their membership meeting on June 6. The grant was awarded to K9 Emergency Response Teams, represented by Michelle Metzner. The American Kennel Club created the Companion Animal Recovery Canine Support and Relief Fund in 2002 to honor the work of the search and rescue dogs who bravely served in the aftermath of 9/11. Since that time, the fund has donated $4 million to Search and Rescue teams and to organizations supporting companion animal relief during natural and civil disasters. Michelle spoke to the club about the work that her group does and brought along one of the dogs currently being trained for search and rescue. “Little Scout” is a five- month-old flat-coated retriever who, once trained, will be going to a
