The PeT Lovers Guide | MaY/JuNe 2014 1
Owning a pet can and should be a very positive and rewarding experience for a child. Children learn responsibility, compassion and empathy through interacting and caring for a pet or human companion. In this issue we feature Lucky One’s ranch located in historic Vacaville. Lucky One is an ideal place where children can learn all aspects of raising animals while also experiencing the life and fun of a working ranch. There are many different types of animals on this ranch that will help enrich the relationship between children and pets. Lucky One is an ideal place to also host birthday parties or other events for children.
Also in this issue, we feature an article by Renee Gallegos on communicating with your pet. Most of us talk to our pets regularly and assume they understand what we are saying or trying to communicate. We are often surprised to learn how many words of our vocabulary that dogs really do understand. How the images in our mind often translate into communicating with cats is another new breakthrough in human pet communication. For more information on pet communication, please read the article by Renee Gallegos in this edition.
North Bay Water Service helps us get ready for summer fun with some great tips on how to have a healthy happy pool for you and your family.
Do you have a pet that is overly sensitive,
frightened, easily alarmed or aggressive? The Rein Coat is a newly patented therapeutic calming harness and coat for pets. The Rein Coat stimulates the production of oxytocin, a naturally occurring neurochemical that is released by the brain. Oxytocin reduces fear and replaces anxiety with the feelings of safety, security and trust that calm fearful, overexcited and insecure animals. The Rein Coat is not only a therapeutic calming coat for cats and dogs – it is a high tech winter coat that keeps your pet
warm and dry. With a built-in harness, you just slide the coat over your pet’s
head, 2 buckles to click and you’re off. It’s easy, it’s fast and they are changing the lives of pets one at a time. Please read more about this
wonderful new product.
For many people, losing a pet is one of the most difficult experiences. This issue will discuss one of the leading causes of death, funds that can help and a memorial page to honor your furry companion. To have your furry companion that has crossed over featured in a future issue, please contact me.
Lastly, Dr Palm with the SPCA of Vacaville and Cal West Pet Hospital writes about the benefits of Spay & Neuter. We continue with this topic because there are an estimated 12 million to nearly 100 million feral cats roaming nationwide. 800 cats and dogs are euthanized every hour in
the United States because there aren’t enough homes. The SPCA of Vacaville offer Low Cost Spay/Neuter and more for your pets.
It is important when we discuss Spaying and Neutering that we also include the importance of Microchipping. If everyone spayed and neutered their pets and microchipped them, it would make a huge dent in the stray pet population. Microchips would reunite lost and runaway animals with their families. Irresponsible owners who abandon their pets might think twice about pet dumping. The fines and or jail time related to irresponsible pet ownership decisions are quite severe. Whether the microchip is ultimately used to reunite a family and a missing pet or to deter criminals from victimizing dogs or using them to victimize others, it’s hard to disagree that mandatory microhipping would be an essential step in humanizing our attitude towards our human companions. Overall, it would reduce strays, euthanasia rates, and shelter crowding—all problems that are getting worse.
Thank you for your continued readership
and support.Sincerely,

Pet Water Safety by North Bay Water Services Dogs and water seem like a natural fit, but not all dogs instinctively know how to swim. It is important that owners take precautions with all dogs around the backyard pools. Below is a list of ideas to help to make certain your pet stays safe in your backyard.
DO NOT ASSUME YOUR DOG CAN SWIM - Take time to introduce your animal to the pool. If your dog seems uneasy or upset do not force them in the water. Never let your dog swim unsupervised. If you have a vinyl pool, be sure to also trim your pets nails to reduce the risk of puncturing or tearing your pool liner. LIFE VESTS/FLOATS - Life vests and floats can make swimming enjoyable for your dog. Not only do they protect your dog from drowning but they help support the fragile spine of young puppies or older animals allowing more fun swimming with their owners. FENCES - Installing a fence around your pool area is a great way to keep your pet from entering your pool unsupervised. These fences can also keep feces away from your pool water. Animal feces can cause bacteria to grow in your pool water and can also cause sickness to your family and friends. DRINKING WATER - Always provide fresh water for your dog to drink. Although drinking small amounts of chlorinated or salt water should not harm your pet. Large amounts can cause diarrhea and vomiting. Pools that have not been properly treated or are green can carry harmful bacteria that can make your dog sick. SAFETY HAZARDS - Inspect your pool deck area often for any sharp edges or broken glass that could cut or injure your pet. WATER TEMPERATURE - Allowing your pet to swim in water that is too cold can cause the animal to develop hypothermia. Hypothermia is a serious condition and can be fatal to your pet. EAR INFECTIONS AND SKIN PROBLEMS - Dogs can develop ear infections and skin problems from your swimming pool. Make sure to dry your dogs ears if he is prone to ear infections as well as towel dry them after a swim. Also, it is important to remember that you should wait 48 hours before or after applying a flea product such as Frontline. Water can render the product useless if the dog is bathed to soon. PROTECTING YOUR POOL -Make sure to clean out your pool filter, pump baskets, skimmers, and backwash after your dog goes for a swim. Dog hair can accumulate and cause problems with your equipment. Swimming with our pet should be fun! But as responsible pet owners we must take the right
precautions when allowing our dogs to swim!

Did you know pets are often contaminated with toxic chemicals found in the home? A recent study by the Environmental Working Group found:
“American pets are polluted with even
higher levels of many of the same synthetic industrial chemicals
that researchers have recently found in people,
including newborns.”

Benefits of Spaying & Neutering Pets
By Dr. Kelly Palm DVM(Reviewed by Lauren Kendell, editor)
Most of us know the obvious reasons for spaying and neutering our pets unwanted litters, which ultimately end up increasing the amount of dogs and cats in our local shelters. This in turn increases the euthanasia rate. In September 2013, the SPCA of Solano County opened a state- of- the- art low cost spay and neuter clinic with a grant from PetSmart Charities. The facility, located on the grounds of the SPCA, at 2200 Peabody Road in Vacaville, offers discounted spaying and neutering for dogs and cats (including feral cats) of residents of Solano County and surrounding communities. Studies have shown the only way to decrease the euthanasia rate in local shelters is to have a low cost spay and neuter clinic in the community.
Preventing unwanted litters is an obvious reason for sterilizing your pet, but what are some other hidden benefits? Neutering male cats decreases urine marking, especially if the procedure is performed before a male cat develops this bad habit. It also decreases abscess formation as a result of fighting over a particular territory. Spaying your female cat is a good idea because cats are spontaneous ovulators, meaning they ovulate so much when they are bred, they quickly become pregnant and tend to have multiple litters per year. These facts coupled with a cat’s short gestation period of 63 days explain why the feline population is so out of control.
Male dogs that have been neutered are far less likely to mark their territory, roam or be aggressive with other dogs. Neutered male dogs also have fewer perianal hernias (a weakening in the tissues around the anus), perianal tumors, testicular tumors, and benign prostatic disease. Female dogs that are spayed before their first heat are far less likely to develop malignant mammary (breast) cancer. Estrogen plays a crucial role in the development of this type of cancer within dogs. Pyometra, or a uterine infection, is another potentially life threatening ailment prevented by having a dog spayed. Accidental pregnancy can cost owners large sums of money, especially if an emergency C-section becomes necessary and puts your pet at risk for life-threatening complications.
The SPCA’s spay and neuter clinic is open Wednesdays through Saturdays, by appointment. Please call (707)448-8750 or visit their website at www.SolanoSPCA.com and click on the spay/neuter tab.

Dog kibble in a white food dish abruptly flashes like a snapshot in my mind. I’m working out at the gym one afternoon when I see this image and I dismiss it once, twice but the third time I understood.
This was my first experience with a puppy initiating intuitive communication. Haley is a Boxer just under a year old who was adopted by an employee of the gym. I’d never met Haley in person, but I heard all about her. Most people who know that I’m an Animal Communicator love to share their stories and concerns about their animals. One day Haley’s owner shared her worry about the dogs loss of appetite; Haley would only eat from her hand. I suggested she have Haley examined by her veterinarian before she attempted to help the situation and consider an intuitive reading. She concurred and made an appointment.
The next day when I arrived at the gym she had Haley with her and was
on her way to see the vet. This was the first time I had the opportunity to meet Haley face-to-face and what a delightful creature she is! Interestingly enough, this was also when I saw the first image of dog kibble in a white food bowl. I completely dismissed it, wished them good luck, said good bye and went inside to workout. I stepped onto the stair machine, began working out and there it was again. After a third occurrence, I realized Haley was initiating communication with a dogged persistence and I was truly amazed!
When Haley and her mom returned, I held in my excitement, remained calm and asked if Haley had a white plastic food bowl. The woman stopped in her tracks, dropped her jaw to the floor and questioned me with a baffled look, “how could you know that?” I said “Haley showed me through a mental snapshot and gave me the impression she doesn’t like the bowl because it’s made of plastic. Haley wants a different kind of bowl.”
Needless to say, the plastic bowl was thrown out and Haley began to eat from her new bowl. The vet results came back with proof that Haley was a healthy puppy and the change in her eating habits was behavioral.

your animals are feeling and thinking, schedule an intuitive reading or register for one

June is Pet MicrochiP
AWARENESS MONTH
By Bob B. Hamilton
If your pet is used to you meeting all of its needs, imagine how difficult it would be for him to fend for himself if he were to get lost. It can be difficult finding them on your own, which is why collars can be quite
useful. However, it is best to combine this basic measure with pet microchip technology too.
If your pet is used to you meeting all of its needs, imagine how difficult it would be for him to fend for himself if he were to get lost. It can be difficult finding them on your own, which is why collars can be quite useful. However, it is best to combine this basic measure with pet microchip technology too. Hopefully you will never need it, but you never know what can
happen. You may leave a door or window open inadvertently allowing your pet to make its escape. If you keep your dog outside, then he may decide to dig under the fence or get out some other way. Having a chip implanted in your pet is an inexpensive way to achieve peace of mind. If you go down to an animal shelter, it should cost you less than $20. It would be a bit more to get it done at a veterinarian’s office or a breeder, but it still will not be cost-prohibitive. The chips that are put inside your pet are very small. They are no larger than a grain of rice. The chip will contain all of your contact information. If your pet is lost, then a scanner can be used to access your contact information and return your pet to you. Not only is it inexpensive to get a pet microchip, but it is also an easy process. It can easily be done using a syringe. If your pet has had vaccination shots in the past, then they will not have much of an issue getting chipped. The procedure will not need to be repeated in the future since it lasts for the life of your pet.
It is important to make the distinction that a chip does not make use of GPS technology. You can’t sit at home and use a device to determine exactly where your pet has run off to. Instead, someone will need to scan your pet for the chip after it has been found. Many pets end up at a shelter after getting separated from their owners. Personnel at these shelters will have the technology to scan your pet. Just make sure that your contact information is always up-to-date. If you ever move or change phone numbers, then you will need to have the necessary changes updated in the database. June is pet microchip awareness month. There is not much of a reason not to get your pet a chipped since there are many benefits in doing so.
Having a chip implanted in your pet is an inexpensive way
to achieve peace of mind.

❝No Father’s Day❞ By Solano SPCA Spay and Neuter Clinic
Most of us know the obvious reasons for spaying and neutering our pets … unwanted litters which ultimately end up increasing the amount of dogs and cats in our local area shelters which in turn increases the euthanasia rate. In September of 2013, the SPCA of Solano County opened a state of the art low cost spay neuter clinic with a grant from PetSmart Charities. The facility
located on the grounds of the SPCA, 2200 Peabody Road in Vacaville, offers spays and neuters to dogs and cats (including feral cats) to residents of Solano County and the surrounding communities at a discounted rate. Studies have shown the only way to decrease the euthanasia rate in local area shelters is to have a low cost spay/neuter clinic in the community.
According to SpayUSA.org over 70,000 puppies and kittens are born in the United States every day. Because of overpopulation, more than 3.7 million animals are still being euthanized each year. In Solano County alone there are over 90,000 cats according to the 2012 census. This number is for homes with pet cats. This doesn’t include the numbers of stray animals and feral cats that are still currently reproducing.
This is where the SPCA of Solano County goes to work. The SPCA of Solano County is planning our first annual “no Father’s day” event may 31, 2014. This event will neuter 150 male cats free of charge. It is our hope that several animal loving business owners in our community will help to sponsor our event. We are asking for a sponsorship of $500 to help reach our goal. 150 male cats neutered will prevent thousands of unwanted litters each year. This means that less cats will be euthanized in municipal shelters.
This event, along with our sponsors, will be promoted and publicized in our radio commercials on KUIC radio, website, press releases, and social media platforms. We need the help of our community.
We will have three teams each with 50 male cats to neuter. Each team will consist of one licensed veterinarian and 2 veterinary technicians .. The cats will have prescheduled appointments and a group of volunteer teams will

The Rein Coat®:A new, therapeutic
calming coat for dogs and cats — that WORKS!
It has often been said that necessity is the mother of invention. And that is true for Paula Hege and her beloved English Mastiff, Rabb.
Three years ago, Rabb was trapped in a thunderstorm. So violent was the storm that the creek behind Paula’s home flooded. The natural instinct of animals is to escape to higher ground in a flood and that’s just what a moccasin did.
Rabb and her sister Roz, a boxer, encountered their first snake. Rabb and Roz may have thought the snake was another toy to play with. Scared, the snake bit both dogs, nearly killing both. Looking out her office window at the intensity of the storm, Paula’s instincts took over. She raced home to find both dogs lying in her backyard--near death. Paula rushed both to the N. C. State University Veterinary School where a team of doctors nursed Rabb and Roz back to health.
But that event left Rabb, a 200-pound mastiff, deathly afraid of thunderstorms. It was painful to see how fearful she was every time a storm occurred. There wasn’t a product that could help calm Rabb’s fears. All of Paula’s “TLC” still wouldn’t calm her mastiff. That’s when Paula decided she had to come up with a solution to help her dog.
The product Paula developed, a new coat and harness technology, work by replicating a naturally occurring behavior between animals and their offspring in a gentle and nurturing manner. Picture this: A mother dog picks up her puppy by the scruff of his neck, calming the puppy. The puppy relaxes because he knows his mommy is taking him safely out of harm’s way.
The Rein Coat® is designed to lightly touch your pet on the nape of the neck—just like the mommy dog or cat—triggering the production of oxytocin to be released by the brain, which then reduces the fear and anxiety in your pet. In numerous trials, The Rein Coat® has proven effective in reducing anxieties while allowing your pet to move freely without constraint.

22 The PeT Lovers Guide | www.thepetloversguide.com
The Rein Coat® is a patent pending, therapeutic calming coat. The technology is totally different than any other dog shirts or coats that are tight-fitting and restrictive. As with Rabb, many dogs and cats fear thunder, loud noises, a trip to the vet or groomer, or riding in cars or on airplanes.
Chuck in Madison, WI writes: “We have noticed a sense of calm with our three dogs when they are wearing the coats. The ease of putting on the coats and the quality are other things we like about the coats.”
Allison in Muscatine, IA: “The coats are amazing. My favorite thing about the coats is they work for all three of my dogs’ body types, don’t restrict their movements and can withstand the elements.”
John in Roanoke, VA: "My Jack Russell terrier had always been anxious when asked to climb in my plane and go flying with me. I bought a Rein Coat® for him because he is afraid of thunderstorms and wearing the coat allows him to ignore the storms. Now he wears it on the plane and enjoys flying the friendly skies. It has made a remarkable difference.”
The Rein Coat® is perfect for service dogs who work under a lot of stress every day. The Rein Coat® is the perfect way for one of these buddies to “decompress” and relax after a tough day at work.
The Rein Coat® helps keep your pet relaxed and comfortable on those daily walks. The coat’s exterior is water resistant with a plush interior that keeps your pet warm. The coat is machine washable or you can just wipe it off with a sponge. The Rein Coat® fits dogs and cats from five to 250 pounds with neck sizes ranging from six to 35 inches. There is no other K-9 garment that will accommodate a wide array of dogs, from toy to giant breeds.
The Rein Coat® is available in eight sizes and fitting your pet with the proper size is easy to do. The Rein Coat® and can be
purchased at www.TheReinCoat.com.

I recently toured Lucky Ones Ranch in Vacaville, California and what a fantastic place
it is! More importantly, I had the pleasure of learning about Thao, Vince and their animals. This couple works full time, yet they rescue animals and provide them with amazing care. They truly have big hearts and a deep passion for all animals. It was wonderful to hear their unforgettable stories of how they saved each animal. Here’s a little more about them and their amazing sanctuary.
Dispatcher Thao and Officer Vince Ones, married in 2006, are a crime fighting, animal loving duo. When
Thao is not answering 911 calls and Vince is not arresting bad guys, they are home with their fur babies at the Lucky Ones Ranch.
In 2011, the Ones moved from the city to five scenic acres in the rolling hills of
Vacaville. They quickly expanded their family of fur and feathers to include two
llamas, two goats, one sheep, ten pigs, six horses, many chickens, five ducks, two
geese, four rabbits, two turtles, five dogs and four cats. Most of the animals were rescued,
some were purchased from breeders, and some were even born at the ranch, but ALL of them are
considered to be their “fur kids”. They are part of the family and treated with love and respect.
The Ones have hosted dozens of private get-togethers with friends
and family. In 2012, they hosted their largest event, the Fall Celebration, with 50 adults and 30 children. They hosted the first annual Great Easter Egg Hunt in 2013 – a fundraiser for Canine Cancer, in which they raised over $1000 for the Morris Animal Foundation. They will host another amazing Easter Celebration in April 2014 for Ranch guests.
To share their love of animals, Thao and Vince have decided to open the Lucky Ones Ranch to the public for special events. Whether it’s a birthday party or a family reunion, The Lucky Ones Ranch is a special place to create lasting memories.
The Ranch offers a unique and fun place to hold your child’s birthday party. All activities take place outside; it’s a “Noah’s Ark” assortment of animals about 70 in all! The children can visit the petting zoo includes or take a hand-led pony ride on small ponies, Josephine and Leo. There are three picnic tables shaded under walnut trees and an outdoor wash basin and outhouse. Kids (and adults) are encourage to play, enjoy the animals and just have fun. I highly recommend visiting; you and your children will have a great time in a special, engaging atmosphere.
Please consider The Lucky Ones Ranch.
For additional information, check out their website at: www.luckyonesranch.com or
find them on Facebook.
