Welcome to the Spring 2009 edition of The Barking Bulletin. A quarterly newsletter brought to you by PetPartners, the folks that administer the AKC Pet Healthcare Plan.
As the weather warms up each year, it should remind us that mosquito and flea season is upon us. And to a dog, that can mean parasite trouble. One of our contributing veterinarians was kind enough to provide a timely article on how to best guard our dogs from the tandem parasite menace of fleas and heartworms.
In the people world, there are official who's who lists comprised by professionals of notable accomplishments. This Barking Bulletin has two articles about dogs that would make anyone's who's who in the canine world. Please read about the remarkable achievements and personalities of Knotty and Robin.
Of particular fascination in the area of canine specialty activities is the Earth Dog event, a competition geared toward the natural traits of the Dachshund and Terrier breeds. A fun time is had by all as our excitable tail wagging friends literally get down and dirty.
