Deluxe Pet CarEAn Ounce Of Prevention Is Worth A Pound Of CureVeterinarians recommend regular wellness exams for the same reason your physician and dentist recommend them - if you can detect a problem in its early stages, it's more likely to be treated and resolved with less expense, less difficulty and better success.

As the saying goes, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Vaccinations, heartworm prevention and routine deworming are important components of wellness care and can prevent diseases that are not only life-threatening, but very expensive to treat.

Your veterinarian can recommend a wellness program based on your pet's breed (some breeds are predisposed to certain health problems), age, lifestyle and overall health.

7 Things You Can Do To Keep Your Pet Healthy

1. Keep your pet at a healthy weight.

2. Exercise your pet.

3. Feed your pet a balanced, nutritious diet.

4. Have your veterinarian examine your pet at least once a year to make sure your pet is healthy and to help detect problems earlier.

5. Vaccinate your pet against potentially deadly diseases such as distemper, parvo, panleuko penia and rabies.

6. Keep your pet free of parasites (fleas, ticks, heartworm, etc.) - consult your veterinarian for the best product for your pet.

7. Spay/neuter your pet.

Love the company of a pet but not yet ready to commit?“One of the wonderful things I like about fostering dogs is finding out their unique personalities. They are just as different and unique as any human, and this is especially true in the differences between older dogs and puppies. As a young college student, it would seem that my natural pairing would be with a spunky puppy. While I love their matching enthusiasm for life, I have found that fostering an older dog like Maggie is an often overlooked and just as rewarding experience. She may have less energy than a one year old, (thank you Maggie, for using this in not destroying my couch), but while puppies are unmatched in enthusi-asm, Maggie and her more senior compatriots are unmatched in their appreciation. She takes a wise and bit slower approach to life that lends special moments of enjoying the simple things. Every pet is met with a grateful nuzzle, every dog park run with forming qualitative bonds, and there is no other dog I would like to walk down to the park to appreciate the sunset with. I’ve immensely enjoyed fostering Maggie as she has taught me many things, and I would recommend the addition of a senior dog to anyone’s household. With an older dog, you’ll literally stop to smell the roses, and in Maggie’s case, sometimes try to eat them!”

What does it mean to “foster” a dog?A foster home is a home (like yours!) that provides temporary shelter, care and love for pets while they are awaiting placement in a new “forever” home. Foster pets are much more likely to have successful life-long placements in new homes when they come

from a loving foster home, than when coming directly from the shelter. You will keep your foster dog until it gets new adoptive parents.

What makes a good foster home?If you’ve had some experience with dogs before, have a basic understanding of their needs, and a touch of common sense, you’re a good foster candidate. Our animals are looking for a little love,

walks, meals, and a safe space. If you think you can give this to an animal, but may not yet be ready to commit to having one yourself yet, you should consider fostering.

How long will I have my foster?It varies. Younger, smaller dogs get adopted quickly – from a few days to a few weeks. Larger dogs and older dogs usually take longer up to 2-3 months, occasionally longer. Cats the same.

If ever there was evidence of the remarkable power in the eye of the beholder, it can be seen in the work of Patrick Demarchelier.

Long tan legs and winsome faces are the most common subjects for the globe-trotting photographer whose wonderful eye for the dramatic fashion photograph has made him more famous than many of the designers and models he shoots for countless fashion glossies. What is less known about him is his affection for animals — not just dogs and cats — but wild animals, creatures of the bush, the kind you can’t pet without risking a limb and that doesn’t always enjoy being photographed.

Demarchelier was born in Normandy and began taking his first pictures at age 18. Those early shots put him on a path that would eventually land him steady work in Harper’s Bazaar and win him a reputation for subtle manipulations of light that lend his pictures a sharp, lifelike vibrancy. When he is not in his Soho office in lower Manhattan, he is probably relaxing in one of his favorite spots — the Caribbean island of St. Bart’s, possibly trekking through the deserts of Africa, or taking shots of famous subjects such as Madonna and Liz Hurley with animals, it’s a way of blending what he describes as two of his most favorite subjects: “the wild and the beautiful.”

Demarchelier’s pet dachshund, Puffy, goes everywhere with him, even flying on the Concorde. “Puffy’s a great traveler. He loves St. Bart’s,” says Demarchelier. And who wouldn’t? Puffy came into Demarchelier’s life a year ago. “My son went out to buy a fish and came back with a dog,” he says. “My wife loves him. If you look at his expression, the eyes — the way they look at you — you can see he’s a very smart dog and full of love.”
