Growing old is a privilege, but it’s sometimes accompanied by feelings of loneliness. Once your body slows down or health issues set in, it can be harder to socialize or even leave the house. Because of the worldwide pandemic, things have gotten even worse and those who may have had a social life previously are home-bound. That’s where cats come in.

Labradors are considered America’s favorite breed, according to the American Kennel Club. They’re high-energy, sweet dogs and they love little more than playing a game of fetch.

For miles, there was nothing but earth, sparse vegetation, and sandstone structures piercing the darkening sky....

Tackling your dog or cat’s skin problems with nutrition and supplements
Resolving allergies and other skin problems in your dog or cat involves much more than just stopping the itch. It also means getting to the root cause of the problem, and using nutrition and supplementation to help heal his skin from the inside out. It may seem counterintuitive, but skin problems in dogs and cats need to be addressed from the inside out, not the outside in. While it’s important to alleviate the discomfort of your animal’s itching and inflammation, it’s also crucial to get to the root cause of the...
