Dear Passionate Pet Lover~
March is here and the first day of Spring is almost upon us. With the change in weather, comes the opportunity to spend more time outside with your pets! Which means, if you haven’t already had your dog or cat spayed or neutered, March is the time to do it. In fact, March is National Spay and Neuter Awareness Month. According to The Human Society of the United States, some important facts regarding spaying and neutering include: 1) spaying and neutering helps dogs and cats live longer, healthier lives; 2) spaying and neutering can eliminate or reduce the incidence of health problems that can be difficult or expensive to treat; 3) spaying and neutering makes pets better, more affectionate companions; 4) neutered cats are less likely to spray and mark territory; 5) animal shelters are overburdened with surplus animals, which spaying and neutering can help prevent. The low one-time cost to spay or neuter your pet is a

small price to pay for the health of your pet and the prevention of unwanted animals.Shure Pets is pleased to announce that we now have Pet Consultants in 26 states with many of them beginning to build their down lines. The excitement is growing both here in the Corporate Office and among our Consultants. There’s even a little healthy competition among Pet Consultants vying to reach the Top-Dog consultant level. We are thrilled with their enthusiasm and look forward to working together to help each Pet Consultant reach his or her goals.

With all this excitement and growth that Shure Pets is experiencing, we are proud to introduce Shure Pets University to provide our Pet Consultants with additional support to meet their needs. Starting Tuesday, April 6, 2004, at 2:00 p.m. and continuing on the first Tuesday of every month, thereafter, Shure Pets will offer educational and informational training sessions at the Corporate Office. Pet Consultants can learn more about the Shure Pets product line, upcoming marketing campaigns and the finer points of the business, such as recruiting and building their Shure Pets team. Following each two-hour training session, we will be hosting monthly meet and greet sessions for individuals interested in learning more about becoming a Pet Consultant. These meet and greet sessions will begin at 4:00 p.m. on the first Tuesday of each month.

As Shure Pets grows daily, we continuously review and revise many of the materials and processes our Pet Consultants use to do business. In the upcoming months, look for information on easier and more efficient ordering methods, new products and a new Cat-alog. Keep your tails wagging and sending us your input. We depend on your feedback!

Thank you from the bottom of our paws.
Sincerely, Andrew Shure, founder

1. Shedding Cats: Nondomesticated cats, or cats that live in the wild, tend to shed only in the spring. However, because domestic house cats are kept in artificially lit and heated conditions, they shed all year round. As a result, cats need regular grooming. Longer haired felines will get tangled and matted coats if not groomed regularly. Cats also shed excessively if they are upset or under intense stress. Therefore, cats may tend to lose a lot of hair while you are grooming them if they do not enjoy the activity.
2. Bird Toys: Look into using dried out bagels as bird toys either strung as a cage toy or as a hand toy. For smaller sized birds, dried mini bagels would work better. Remember, do not string any toy with a double strand of chain, rope or string as the bird might accidentally get entangled or strangle itself when it twists around. Inspect your bird's toys every day. Get in the routine of doing this when you change the bird’s food and water dishes. Birds can easily get tangled in the loose pieces of any toy (hand crafted or manufactured) and checking on the toys daily can help reduce the chance for injury or chance of fatality. If you discover a toy in need of daily repair, move the toy out of the cage and onto a surface where you can supervise your bird at play. Supervision is highly recommended when introducing a new toy to your bird.
3. Dog Skin Care: Hot spots are localized areas of acute, moist and inflamed skin which are usually caused by flea bite irritation, allergies or direct contact with an irritating substance such as chemicals or harsh soaps. Because these spots are extremely itchy, the dog will constantly lick and scratch itself, making the spot worse. The most important step in treating hot spots is to prevent your dog from licking and chewing of the spot. A skin relief product such as Shure Pets Paramount Medicated Lotion will aid in reducing and stopping the itching and pain. Moderate to severe hot spots, as well as recurring hot spots, require veterinary attention.
