Spring is Springing!!!

Each year, we remind people about COMMON SPRINGTIME HAZARDS and some precautionary steps that you can take to help keep your furry friends safe this spring. 1. Spring often means having friends and family over for cook-outs before the oppressive heat of summer sets in. Human Food is often poisonous to pets and so you really should employ the old “Why even risk it?” attitude. Common foods which are poisonous to pups include: Alcohol, Avocados, Chocolate, Coffee, Cooked Bones, Garlic, Grapes and Raisins, Macadamia Nuts, Onions. 2. Cleaning Supplies are in high demand during the spring. Make sure to keep cleaners and solvents safely out of the reach of dogs (and small humans too, of course) and mop up any spills before a curious puppy puts their inquiring nose in it! 3. During spring cleaning, many of us will empty the medicine cabinets and discard expired medications. Human Medications, such as pain killers, cold medicines, anti-cancer drugs, anti-depressants, vitamins and diet pills can all be extremely toxic to animals. Keep all medicine containers away from pets who could chew through them and be vigilant about finding and disposing of any dropped pills. Most pharmacies will have a program for proper disposal of unused medications. 4. This winter has been fairly mild and so insects will probably be pretty bad this year! Insect Control Products including those in PAGE 35

Spring is around the corner and we at K-9 Coach are thrilled! Fresh air, blooming trees and flowers, as well as perfect outdoor weather, make us and our canine friends very happy. For all that is wonderful about springtime, it is also very busy and potentially very dangerous for your beloved pups!f

over-the-counter flea and tick remedies, can be toxic. Most professional pest control companies have pet-safe alternatives, but you must ask. Also, prescription flea and tick control products can be much less toxic than over-the-counter remedies. Pet owners should never use any product around pets without first reading the warnings and consulting your veterinarian. 5. Getting the yard and gardens ready for summer often means a flurry of landscaping activities. Landscaping Products such as colored mulch, mulch made from recycled rubber, chemicals used on lawns and gardens, such as fertilizer and plant food, etc… can be deadly if ingested. Make sure to read the labels, look for safe alternatives and always follow the manufacturer direction in terms of storage and post-application contact with pets. 6. Laundry Items such as detergents and fabric softener sheets may have ulcerous and even fatal consequences for your dog. Highly concentrated laundry detergent packets are even more dangerous.

Make sure to keep these out of reach for your inquisitive puppy. 7. If you are like me, you plant flowers both in and outside during springtime. Poisonous Household Plants include Autumn Crocus,

Azalea, Cyclamen, Kalanchoe, Lilies, Oleander, Dieffenbachia,

Daffodils, Lily of the Valley, Sago Palm, Tulips, and Hyacinths among others. If you have a question about a specific plant, ask your veterinarian.

8. Traps and Poisons must be treated with extreme caution. Just remind yourself of why they exist! Even if you do not use traps and poisons, remember that your neighbors might. Dogs and cats can be poisoned if they eat a rodent who has been killed by poison (called secondary poisoning). 9. Spring is also an ideal time to inspect and replace worn out Dog Gear & Toys. Collars and leashes wear out and can break when Fido pulls on that afternoon walk! Stuffed toys and beds get holes and, let’s face it, eating white polyfill stuffing is irresistible! Rubber toys such as Kongs, tennis balls, etc... can degrade and break apart over time. So, make sure to inspect and replace. Other than warn you about their dangers, there’s not much K-9 Coach can do about cleaning supplies or landscape products! BUT, we can do something about collars, leashes, toys, etc… Every March, pet companies worldwide launch their new pet products. We research and test these products and bring them to you, our clients. And, since it is better to spend a few dollars replacing worn-out puppy gear, than thousands in surgery fees from intestinal blockages or broken bones from getting loose and running in front of a car, we do our own spring cleaning and hold our Annual Spring Clearance Sale. So, make sure to stop by K-9 Coach

March 5, 6, and 7 to check out new products, get fit for a new collar or harness and get major savings treats, chews, food and more!

Enjoy the beautiful weather and be sure to take a little time to make sure everyone is ready to have fun!

Breana Holmes is walking testimony to the medicinal effects of CBD oil. She experienced relief from her anxiety and fibromyalgia since it has relieved her pain and helped keep her calm when she begins to feel anxious. It was after discovering CBD oil and experiencing the benefits herself that she decided to open Your CBD Store in Smyrna.

“I also wanted to be able to help others who are looking for alternatives as relief.” She explained as she described her motives for opening her store.

CBD oil has caught the media’s eye as of late since it is derived from the hemp plant. It is important to note that marijuana is a type of hemp plant, but not all hemp plants contain the psychoactive chemical THC. Because CBD is not psychoactive and will not get you high, it is legal in most states, including Georgia. Many people use CBD for a wide range of different ailments and to just help them get back to being their self. Even for those who do not suffer from chronic conditions, CBD may still be a beneficial supplement in the same way that other natural supplements are used. There are many people who micro-dose, taking a small amount each day. The products at Your CBD Store are made with terpene-rich CBD oil harvested from industrial hemp plants. We also provide our 3rd party lab reports with our COA.
