As there are so many places that have aid stations and donation acceptance set up, it would be redundant for us to attempt such an activity. Please consider donating at a TRUSTED location such as your local Red Cross or inquire at your local radio or TV station for a good place to donate. Many service providers are making it easy to donate even by texting a message.

Well, now that our snow is starting to melt from a few days in the high 30’s the only memory I’ll have of it is a sprained back from too much shoveling! We’re not out of the woods yet as most of us here in Ohio and the Great Lake state know we could be dealing with the white stuff well into April or even May if conditions are right! I hope conditions are wrong! On with the show…

What would you do? Mine - a must see film!

What would you do? Mine - a must see film!

Jessie Pullins did not expect to leave his long time friend and companion behind as he evacuated his large family in two vehicles to Houston as the water rose in New Orleans. 2 vehicles packed with too many people setting out on a 75 mile drive which took 12 hours to Houston would be too much for the large black lab. Leaving plenty of food and water for “JJ” Jessie knew he would return in 2 or 3 days to get JJ and reunite him with the family. It was not to be as authorities would not let anyone back in to their homes much less the city for months. Jessie discusses the heartwrenching ordeal he went through to find JJ and the legal issues that appeared during his quest.

VET TOPIC OF THE WEEK

Vet to the Stars!

Vet to the Stars!

This week Dr. Patrick talks to us about burns that your pet can recieve from many different locations. Butch has a tendancy to want to walk under my truck in the garage right after we get out. The exhaust pipe and radiator and surrounding metal is still scalding HOT. Now my truck rides pretty high and Butch can almost stand up underneath but if he does it in the wrong place he will cook the hair and skin where he touches the hot metal. Listen in to this discussion and also check out this article that Dr. Patrick sent to us from a great source “Veterinarypartner.com.” This article tells you what to do if your pet gets burned.

Also Dr. Patrick gives us a first hand look at a pet that suffered burns and how he is treating it. He has provided pictures but be warned they are graphic. Budda is a sweet little French Bulldog that suffered burns and is now going through treatments to help him heal.

YOU can help rescue these magnificent animals!

YOU can help rescue these magnificent animals!

April Hoirowitz is the President and Founder of Heart of a Horse. April was not originally a “horse” person but she tells us the touching story of how she came to have such compassion for these majestic animals. Domestic horses are NOT like the wild mustangs roaming the plains of our country, just like our house dogs are NOT like the wolves and cyotes that roam around in the wild! Domestic horses need love, care, and yes unfornately, rescuing also. Live in a city apartment? Don’t have room for a horse on your couch? Well, guess what, YOU can help rescue a horse! Listen in and find out how.

This week Dr. Patrick talks about a specific problem that his dog Cardiff has had with his immune system. Find out what “IMHA” is and how it can affect your pet as well as what some of the symptoms are. It’s a good thing Dr. Patrick is a Veterinarian as he knew exactly what was wrong with Cardiff and how to help him. Listen in to his comments and also check out Cardiff’s IMHA Blog where he talks about this ailment that required a hospital stay!

I had the pleasure of working with Tina putting this album together and producing this project. Submitted for Grammy consideration last year, this collection of Classical Christmas songs shows not only Tina’s range and expertise as a vocalist but also her technical ability to get the tracks recorded! Tina is featured on two other Christmas CD’s where she is in the company of superstars such as Huey Lewis, Stephen Bishop, and Dennis DeYoung. Even William Shatner did a track. I am very proud of Tina as she also produced another CD herself, learning the steps that we took on the production of the first one. She definitely has what it takes and I look forward to working with her again in the future! Check out more of her music on her Web Site!
