Keep Pests at Bay the Natural Way: Article by Heidi Sanner
Biting, blood sucking, hitchhiking insects can be a real nuisance to any living creature in the animal kingdom. Such pests can cause severe skin damage, a maddening itch, painful irritation and may transmit disease or tapeworms to their victims. It is amazing how seemingly well kept domestic pets and animals suffer from these insects while wild animals tolerate them with relative ease, considering them to be but a mild nuisance. We should ask ourselves why this is so.
Levels of allergic reaction, deterrent ability and infestation vary from animal to animal and place to place. In this essay, I will present steps to repel insects and keep animals pest free in order of increasing effectiveness and vigilance depending upon the particular situation.

Introducing Dogs To Other Animals
Dogs are pack animals. They are ultimately happiest serving their needs through pack cooperation. They know they are better off working together than alone. They are programmed instinctively to responsibly carry out their roles within a group. They thrive on and love performing their roles well. They are not born to be burdens or helpless creatures. If you think of them as such, please rethink and allow them the dignity of having a brain and worthwhile function. If your dog ignores you and your requests in favor of more enticing activities, then he thinks of you as a burden not worthy of fulfilling his goals and you have some adjustments to make in the relationship for the betterment of both human and canine.
Dogs are programmed by nature to cooperate and help the pack…that is, once they understand that doing so will get them what they want. In the wild, and in our case, what they want will be food. The food reward, however, will not be in the form of the prey. The food will always come from you. This is the reshaping behavior part of the process.
