It’s a beautiful sunny day and you want to be outside enjoying it.

You think, maybe a trip to the zoo. Then you consider the long drive to either the NEW Zoo in Green Bay or the Milwaukee County Zoo, and when you get there it can be crowded, making it difficult to get to the exhibits to see the animals. Well, maybe the giraffe. How would you like something a little closer to home?

While due to a tight deadline we were not able to fully form and bring to you all of the columns and features we hoped to in this issue, though we will continue to add the features and columns we planed on in the future.

Another issue of the tight deadline was that we were not able to peruse all of the advertising we had hoped to bring to you.

Their human companion is Lori L. of Sheboygan Falls, WI.

Scrappy.

For articles this month we chose to feature a story on the dangers of antifreeze to help pet owners be aware of a this very potentially dangerous situation, a listing of leash laws and dog park in Sheboygan, and because our focus is for more than just your family pet, we are going to do several multi-part stories on the zoos nature preserves around Wisconsin. We here at Pet Journal are pleased to have an award winning, local pet photographer to help us provide outstanding quality photographs for future issues.

Pet News Pet Insurance; Helps with the High Cost of Pet Health

By Rick Barton Staff writer

We all know the value of having insurance coverage on family and ourselves. This is especially true with medical costs continuing to skyrocket.

Now this valuable coverage extends to our family’s best friends.

As veterinary technology and techniques continue to advance and rival those used by our doctors, veterinary costs have risen to cover the need for new equipment and training. Pet insurance has increased in popularity to cover this increasing cost from veterinary bills and some policies even cover the loss of a pet and burial. This is great in a time when many people have to choose between paying to have a healthy pet or losing them to a shelter.

Pet insurance is nothing new. It has actually been around in various incarnations for over 100 years.

The first policies covered valuable horses and livestock. Not until the late 1940s did the insurance begin to cover companion animals.

Since this time, many countries have embraced the concept of pet insurance with Britain and Sweden leading the world in number of policies. We didn’t catch on until the 1980s.

PET JOURNAL company.

Many companies in the U.S. and Canada pay off on a benefit schedule or pay a portion of the veterinary cost, usually up to 90%, after the deductible has been reached.

As mentioned above, the pet owner pays the veterinarian and then submits a claim to the insurance company for reimbursement.

(open)

As pet insurance continues to increase in popularity, some policies have begun to change their coverage to offer preventative medicine and elective procedures such as vaccinations and neutering.

Many companies are also offering the consumer the ability to customize their policies, allowing the customer the ability choose their own deductible and co-insurance. This allows for the control of premium costs and the ability to choose a level of coverage that meets their specific needs.

As the number of companies offering pet insurance continues to grow, so do the choices offered to the consumer. This can make finding a policy that is right for you a confusing task. As with human insurance, it’s always best to do as much research as possible. Choose a company that offers a policy that not only gives you the coverage you need, but at a price you can live with.

The Dangers of Antifreeze and your Pets

By Rick Barton staff writer

Ask Scrappy!

By Scrappy, a lovable Pit Bull feature columnist

Hi, to all of my friendly human readers. My master and human companion asked me to do this question and answer column for all of you, but with out any questions, he said I should talk about some general topics regarding my breed and about my self.

For starters I am a Purebred Staffordshire Terrier (or Pit Bull for those of you who like lumping me in with other dogs that look like me), I am still a young (at heart) and rambunctious 6yr old , for those of you who don’t know, in human years I am 42 years young! I love running around my yard, playing with my masters nephews, the oldest is 6 who actually was my first master and his little brother. I love going on long walks in my neighborhood and love seeing all the bunnies that seem to have sprung up lately. They are fun to watch, but never seem to want to play with me. I also have two best friends at home, you may be surprised (or not) to find our they are both cats, Austin and Misty.

Until a few months ago I was having a very bad joint problems. It hurt just get up and walk to my food and water bowls, let alone going outside to play. That changed when my buddy brought home a new “treat” for me that he said will help me run and play again like I used to and it did! He called it, if I remember correctly ‘Doggie Glucosamine’.

Well that’s about all I can think of right now and I want to go play some more with the bunnies. I love getting mail and if you have any questions for me I will try and answer them, please keep your questions to more general dog topics, I also have a source for cat questions too. Please send your questions to my email box at askscrappy@petjournalmidwest.com or you can mail it to me via the Pet Journal mailbox at: Pet Journal Attn: Ask Scrappy

A NEW Q&A column about Dog and Cat Grooming, titled Grooming your Pet. Written by Dorrit Diehl of Silde Kennels and Grooming If you would like to submit a question for the first column please send it to:

As the fall and winter seasons roll around it is once again time to perform the yearly task of preparing our vehicles for the cold temperatures ahead. Part of this ritual is changing or topping off the antifreeze.

Though this can be a hassle to us, like the eternal raking of leaves in the fall, it can be deadly to our four legged friends.

Every year an estimated 10,000 plus companion animals die a painful death from the consumption of ethylene glycol, the toxic chemical found in antifreeze. Sadly, as with so many things that are bad for us, antifreeze tastes good to animals. They will actively seek it out and it takes so little to be fatal.

A single teaspoon can be fatal to a cat and as little as two ounces can be fatal to a me di u m s i ze d dog .

Sometimes all it may take is cleaning fur or paws that have been soiled with antifreeze after an animal has tracked thru or rolled in it.

Over 80% of animals poisoned by antifreeze die if not treated in the first hours after ingestion. To make matters worse, in the beginning stages the symptoms may be difficult for a caregiver to diagnosis as poisoning.

Below are a few of the behaviors to watch for: •

Excessive thirst and urination

•

Vomiting and diarrhea

•

Lack of coordination, disorientation, and seizure

•

Grogginess, lethargy, or depression

Sheboygan, WI 53081

If your pet begins to show any of these symptoms, act strangely or out of character, or you suspect they have ingested antifreeze, you must contact a veterinarian as soon as possible.

Or email: groomingyourpet@petjournalmidwest.com

Ask the Alpha Dog “Trick or Dog Treat?”

By: Tamara Pool

4 Paws Private Training As we near the season of ghouls and goblins, I want to give you all a few tips on how to help your dog through this “All Hallows Eve” without incident.

This could be a very frightening, and potentially harmful time. Remember that your dog has no idea what is going on. They don’t understand the concept of dressing up, obviously. You, as the pet owner/ parent, need to do everything in your power to make sure that they are not only well-behaved, but also safe.

First things first. Don’t expect your pooch to know that it’s you or your kids behind that mask. Allow your dog to sniff you kids’ mask or anything else that might obstruct their identity before they put it on. This will give them a better idea of who’s in there. Dog’s work off scent. That is how they greet each other and that is how they know who their people are.

If the mask already has your little one’s scent on it before the dog sniffs it…all the better. Put the mask on in front of the dog a couple times to show that it’s not something attempting to hurt the kids. Dogs can get protective over the children of the house. This will help limit the emotional issues that may arise from your four-legged friend.

October 2010

signs and, if need be, move your dog to another room where they won’t be affected.

Lastly, make sure that any candy that comes into the house stays out of pooches reach. It’s not just chocolate that is bad for dogs, but any candy is potentially harmful.

They love to get into things that they shouldn’t have. The kids will be upset, the parents will be upset and the dogs could get very sick. So take a preventative measure and keep it out of reach from the start. Of course you need to inspect the candy before it can be enjoyed. This would be a good time to work on a “Leave It” command. Encourage your dog to completely ignore the candy that is laid out for inspection and they can receive a treat for their good behavior.

While problems are inevitable for some, if you follow these simple guidelines you can look forward to a happy and fun Halloween full of great memories with your canine companion. Happy Trick or Treating!!

This being the first article for this column, it’s straight forward and just me. However, I would welcome questions to be answered in the column in the future. Consider me the Dear Abby of the dog world. To submit your questions, simply email alphadog@petjournalmidwest.com and you may see your questions answered in the next issue.

If you are staying home with your dog to hand out candy, be aware that a kid that comes to your door may frighten your dog. Think of it this way…there is a freaky-looking thing standing at my door. This could cause your dog to lash out. Although it is unintentional, be alert to the signs of a fearful dog. Ears down, tail tucked and lowered head are all signs of a fearful dog. Watch for these

Zoo Continued from Front Cover:

A zoo with beautiful, clean grounds, happy healthy animals, and a friendly and informative staff. Then look no further then the Lincoln Park Zoo in Manitowoc. Lincoln Park Zoo is one of many local community zoos throughout the state of Wisconsin. Though smaller than AZA (Association of Zoos and Aquariums) zoos, they offer a wonderful and unique opportunity to get a closer look at the animals and ask questions of the staff.

If you’re on a tight budget, many of these zoos are free and rely on donations. I know what you’re thinking, do I really need to see another goat or deer display?

Well, you may be pleasantly surprised at what you might find. The Lincoln Park Zoo has a beautiful and rare Snow Leopard on display and that big fuzzy black bear isn’t one you’ll find anywhere in the wilds of Wisconsin. It’s actually an Asiatic Black Bear. The way to tell the difference is that big mane on either side of his face and the distinctive white “V” markings on his chest. Those are just a couple of the surprises you may not expect to find at a local community zoo.

The Lincoln Park Zoo isn’t a new zoo, as some suspect. Actually, it was founded in 1935 and opened a year later in 1936.

It had extensive renovations in the 1990s, but retained its natural

setting feel that makes it so enjoyable to visit. It specializes in North American Animals, indigenous to the US and Canada.

There are also exotic animals from around the world. Many of the animals Lincoln Park Zoo acquires are donated from other zoos.

Lincoln Park Zoo hosts several seasonal events during the year, such as the “Haunted Barn” for Halloween. A haunted maze, refreshments and games at the Big Red Barn, as well as, a trail through the haunted forest; please note this is not a free event, see event poster located on page 17. During the summer, the Big Red Barn hosts farm animals from local farmers for an educational experience for the kids.

Hours at the Lincoln Zoo vary during the year.

Keeping Your Pets Safe During the Holidays

By Rick Barton Staff writer

Editors note: This column will appear in months when there is a holiday that could have items that are dangerous to pets.

As we come upon another holiday season, as animal caregivers we need to be aware of the potential hazards facing our companions. I know it’s the holidays and our four footed friends are an important part of our families and you want to share joys and yummy treats of the season with them. You just need to keep in mind the hidden dangers that face them. In this article I will try to break them down by holiday, though many of these issues cross over to other

October 2010

holidays during the rest of the year.

Halloween Tamara, in her column “Ask the Alpha Dog”, did a great job explaining behavioral issues pertaining to Halloween. What I’d like to address are the dangers faced with candy and costumes.

First off, lets talk about costumes. I know they’re cute and when you see your little buddy all dressed up for the holiday, you go nuts. There are just a few issues to keep in mind. Make sure the costume fits properly. Elastic too tight around the neck can cause breathing problems, swelling and skin irritation on the rest of the body if it works its way through dense fur down to the skin.

See Saftey on page 14.

14 October 2010 Safety Continued from page 13

Costumes with small plastic pieces can be chewed off and cause choking.

A good general rule is, try to keep an eye on your pet whenever they are dressed in a costume. If you’re like most people, it’ll be hard not to look at how cute they are.

Candy though delicious to us, can impact animals health dramatically.

Sugarfree candies containing Xylitol (artificial sweetener) is very dangerous and can cause hypogly cemi a an d liver damage.

We’ve all heard the story that chocolate is dangerous and it’s true.

Depending on the amount consumed, chocolate can be potentially toxic to companion pets.

Theobromine is the component in chocolate that makes it toxic. Though the various kinds of chocolate have different degrees of theobromine in them, milk chocolate having the least and bakers chocolate having the most, they are all dangerous.

Contact a veterinarian if you believe you pet consumed any amount of chocolate.

PET JOURNAL lollipops, that contain a wooden, rolled paper, or plastic stick can be a choking hazard and if consumed cause serious internal injuries to a pet.

Plastic, cellophane, or aluminum foil candy wrappers can also be a concern. Pets can find discarded candy, find they smell just like the candy they covered and eat them.

Wrappers can cause vomiting, choking and intestinal blockage.

Lighted decorations requiring either electricity or candles pose potential risks.

Chewing on the power cords or the small bulbs can result in damage to their mouth and gums from broken glass and dangerous shocks from power cords. Candles have the potential of burning little faces that get too close or tails that swish over open flames.

None of these hazards should prevent you from having a fun filled Halloween with your four legged buddy, as long as you keep potential hazards out of their reach.

Antifreeze Continued from page 5

It is vital to begin treatment immediately to prevent the kidney failure that takes so many of our companions animals from us. Even if your little friend seems to get better, this is extremely misleading and not an indication they are well. This return to “health” lasts only for a day or two before kidney failure and death occurs. Taking your pet to a vet for urine and blood tests is the only way to be sure they are safe or to begin treatment if they were exposed to antifreeze.

O th e r prev en tati v e measures include the cleanup of all spills or overflow and disposal of used antifreeze.

Make sure new or used antifreeze is kept out of the reach of pets and children in a tightly sealed leak proof container.

Never drain antifreeze onto the ground or into the street. This allows a potentially deadly substance to enter into the ecosystem and water supply. Recycling sites are available for disposal of hazardous household materials; call your local government to find out about disposal options.

These few simple steps can save the lives of your companions, those of your neighbors and the wildlife you share the neighborhood with.

Though this may sound grim, there are measures to take to prevent antifreeze poisoning from occurring. The first and most important step is to switch to antifreeze that contains propylene glycol.

This is a safe alternative to ethylene glycol and performs exactly the same. It t a s te s b i t te r an d w i l l cause animals to avoid it.

Pharmaceutical grade propylene glycol has been safely used as an ingredient in foods and medical products for many years. It can even be found in pet food.

Any candies, such as
