The Straight Poop SPONSOR OF THE WEEK

Wysong is not just another pet food manufacturer. The foundation principle of Wysong is to create what they have learned to be right, whether or not it matches popular trends.

Those of you who have read earlier issues of The Straight Poop know that I care a lot about what I put in Katie's mouth, and I feed her Wysong Synorgon. There's some great stuff on the Wysong site, including a free downloadable 28-page article, "The Truth About Pet Foods", by Dr. R.L. Wysong.

Did I just hear you sneeze? It's amazing how many of us are, sadly, allergic to our pets. Here's THE resource if you have that problem, with lots of advice on breed selection, controlling the environment and an interactive discussion board where you can share your experiences with others.

The Straight Poop about DOG HEALTH AND NUTRITION

I sometimes wonder who gets more pleasure when I give Katie a treat... her or me. Here's a bunch of recipes that will make your dog's mouth drool. And by the way, if you take off the last part of the URL (using only http://soar.berkeley.edu/recipes/), you'll get a searchable database of 67,784 human recipes. Enjoy, but watch your wasteline!

The Straight Poop featured DOG BOOK

Until now I had never enjoyed reading a dog book any more than I did "The Hidden Life of Dogs" by Elizabeth Marshall Thomas. In her new book, "The Social Life of Dogs", she offers us the insights of a trained anthropologist into how we and our best friends live together. A must-read for all dog lovers.
