Arden Moore - Best Selling Author and Radio Show host of Oh Behave!

We have had many guests on the show and have spoken to many Pet Experts along the way, but few wear as many hats or “collars” as she puts it, as Arden Moore. Arden hosts her own show “Oh Behave!” on Pet Life Radio, she has authored 20 books on pet topics, she is a contributing writer for popular pet, golf, and human health magazines, editor of Catnip magazine, and is a popular professional speaker around the country. Arden has been a journalist, working with “Marley and Me’s” John Grogan at the Florida Sun Sentinal during the years that he actually had Marley. She talks about that and knowing Marley during those years in this candid chat about being in the pet writing business the past 10 years. You can catch regular articles from Arden in Fido Friendly Magazine and elsewhere including her web Site ardenmoore.com.

RESCUE SHELTER OF THE WEEK

We have talked to many rescue shelters around the country in many states this past year so I thought it would be a good idea to introduce a few of the great rescue shelters we have right here in Ohio! Some of these organizations are relatively young but others like the Stark County Humane Society can trace their roots to the 1800’s helping keep watch on horses pulling trolleys for the city transportation before busses and subways! Lou Criswell, Director of the Stark County Hamen Society joins us to talk about the history and current work they are doing right here in Ohio to help find homes for deserving pets!

Me and My Buddy Butch will be appearing at the Stark County 2009 MUTT STRUT signing books, participating in the walk, and having a few give aways so brush up on your Dog knowledge for a prize!

VET TOPIC OF THE WEEK

HALO Pet products are "all natural" and "provide the best in Holistic Pet Care!"

Dr. Donna Spector talks about the recent inquiry of “probiotic” and “prebiotic” ingredients in our pet’s fod. What are these additives? Why are they adding this and is it doing my pet any good? Dr. Donna had some big news for us as she is expecting a bundle of joy to add to her fmaily real soon!

This show was wall to wall information! Janine Franceschi joined us from PAW – Pet Friendly Accomodations Worldwide at Luxurypaw.com. Janine and I met in New York during the Westminster weekend and she was a delight to talk to then and now. You know…we had such a great time talking I completely forgot to have her discuss her radio show on Pet Life Radio! She even had me on her show a couple of weeks ago! You have to check out her blog because she is always updating it with new hotels and great information. If you are taking a trip you have to check in with PAW first to see which hotels will take your dog. Janine’s site is the only one that I know of that has the weight of your dog in the search and they only show 4 STAR HOTELS. Great lady, Great Site, I can’t wait to talk to her about her upcoming trip down the East Coast. Thanks Janine for sharing with us!
