 Maggie Needs A Very Special New Home

Maggie is a 6 month old spaniel terrier cross who was brought up from Texas.  She was adopted out to a couple who later learned that they couldn't give her everything she needed.  They made the impossibly difficult decision to do what was best for Maggie and find her a more appropriate home.

Maggie is timid but doing well in her foster home.. She is sweet and adorably cute weighing in at about about 25lbs. She seems to enjoy the company of other dogs and learns to love and enjoy the people closest to her. She has an average energy level and is easy to live with. Maggie is spayed and has had puppy shots. She is housebroken.

The best home for Maggie is probably with an understanding single or couple who is willing and able to be patient with her and give her the time she needs to shine.

For more information about Maggie please contact Cathy Burke at 603-986-6600.  Adoption fee $300.

MOCHA is currently at
Harvest Hills Animal Shelter in Fryeburg, Maine.

Mocha is a 6 year old spayed female Rottweiler who loves to be warm, and would love to find a home where she can lay by the fire, or lounge in front of a woodstove. She has had double ACL surgery and so she would enjoy leisurely walks as opposed to hiking the trails. Mocha is finicky about the company she keeps, so she needs to be the only four legged member of her family, and would prefer a mature Rottie experienced family.

Keeping "Dog Breath" at Bay

"Dog Breath"  is not our dogs' fault. It is the product of a
diseased mouth. If we humans never brushed our teeth, our breath would be just as bad - or worse! And because most of us still do not brush our dogs' teeth, 80% of dogs over the age of three have significant periodontal disease. This means they have a mouth full of plaque, tartar, and gingivitis...yuck...no wonder their breath smells so bad.

Periodontal disease has been associated with kidney, liver, and heart disease in pets as they age, however, a clean and healthy mouth can possibly add up to two years to a dogs' life. The best defense against dental problems in dogs is the same as it is for people, a daily brushing of the teeth. This, however, is not always the easiest thing to do with a dog. There are some pets who take to it immediately, loving the chicken or beef flavored toothpastes. Some others will get used to the idea with slow and gentle training. But if your dog is not one of the above, never fear, there are other ways to help prevent the development of "Dog Breath" - something your dog might even enjoy - CHEWING!

There are a variety of doggy chews that can help, but it is best to shop wisely.
The Veterinary Oral Health Council tests pet dental chews and diets for their
effectiveness in fighting dental disease.  To earn the Council's seal of
approval the product must show a minimum improvement of 15% in the reduction
of plaque and tartar buildup. A list of all tested and approved products can
be found on the VOHC website www.vohc.org. Certain products such as Greenies
are said to have up to a 65% reduction in plaque and tartar when used as directed.

Reiki and Animal Communication For Dogs
An all natural healing treatment for your pet

 

Animal Communication

During her practice of Reiki with animals Sara discovered she had a gift and ability to communicate with the animals she was working with.  During a normal Reiki session, Sara will also share with you communications she receives from your animal.  She can also do simply an Animal Communication session.  Animal Communication can be done with the animal there or from a distance.  Sara will see pictures of your animal's thoughts and will feel things that they feel, enabling her to communicate their thoughts to you.  Animal Communication can be a great tool for learning more about your dogs feelings, anxieties, or general well being. 

What is Reiki?

Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. It is administered by "laying on of hands" and is based on the idea that an unseen "life force energy" flows through us and is what causes us to be alive. Reiki is a simple, natural and safe method of spiritual healing that everyone can use, including animals. It has been effective in helping virtually every known illness and malady and typically has a healing and calming effect. It also works in conjunction with all other medical or therapeutic techniques to relieve side effects and promote recovery.
