The Dignified, Alert and Devoted Hokkaido

The Hokkaido originated in Japan. It is thought the Hokkaido has its roots in the Matagi-ken and was bred to be a hunting dog, bear and/or deer hunting dog. This breed is quite rare outside of Japan.

They are of medium size and are strongly built. They have longer, thicker coats than other Japanese breeds. Their chests are also wider than other Japanese breeds. They have a double coat that sheds seasonally. Colors are white, red, black, brindle, sesame and wolf grey.

The Hokkaido is a very loyal and dedicated companion who will try hard to please his human family. Being incredibly intelligent thinkers and problem solvers allow them to excel at just about any task given to them.

Feed the Hokkaido a high quality diet well balanced with proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. Try the Life's Abundance All Life Stages System to ensure he receives all he needs daily to thrive happily and stays healthy.

Every dog has unique nutritional needs which can be affected by life stage (puppy, adult or senior), differences in personality (high-strung or laid-back), living conditions (sole “child” or one of many in the household), environmental factors and activity level. Our Nutritional System unites All Life Stage Dog Food with Wellness Food Supplements in a single purpose – to provide your dog with excellent nutrition, every single day. 

Not only can you help meet your dog’s unique dietary requirements, you can take advantage of the savings offered by purchasing our Nutritional System, too.

Give your dog the full-spectrum nutrition offered by the superior combination of our premium food and nourishing supplement … it’s everything canines need to thrive!

The natural oils on their skin and coat help to keep them clean and dry despite unfavorable weather conditions. No trimming or shaving of their fur is required or recommended, just regular brushing to remove dead fur and keep the coat healthy. Hokkaido blow their undercoat roughly twice yearly. During this time, a bath and frequent brushing to remove the dead fur is necessary. For best results use the Life's Abundance Grooming Products.

This breed of dog is best suited in an active family who enjoy spending time outdoors. He makes a wonderful hiking, biking, jogging and/or camping companion and can provide additional protection for his humans as he is quite devoted and protective.

The Hokkaido will also excel at performance events such as agility, rally, fly ball, weight pulling, lure coursing, dock diving plus more. Without proper exercise and mental stimulation the Hokkaido can become bored, anxious and hyperactive. They are jumpers so provide him with a six foot fence. Daily walks on a strong leash and a properly fitted martingale collar or harness is recommended as well.

The Friendly, Outgoing, People-Oriented Harrier Dog

The Harrier dog breed resembles a Beagle. They are larger and more powerful hounds than the Beagle and smaller than the English Foxhound. Their main job role is hunting hares by trailing them.

The Harrier is a cheerful and sweet tempered dog, tolerant of people and "excellent" with children. He is a pack dog good with other dogs and prefers life in a pack with people, dogs or both.

This active dog likes to explore, sniff and trail. Be sure to keep the Harrier on a leash and in a safe enclosed area.

Feed the Harrier a high-quality dog food appropriate to the dog's age such as formulas offered through Life's Abundance. If you give table scraps, please go sparingly. Avoid cooked bones and foods with overly high fat content.

The Harrier has a short, glossy coat requiring minimal maintenance. A weekly brushing with a soft-bristle brush or a hound glove will help remove dirt and loose hair. For best results use the Life's Abundance Grooming Products. These products contain all natural ingredients with no harmful chemicals. Inspect the Harrier's ears regularly and start a cleaning routine early in life using the Life's Abundance Ear Cleaner for best results.

Be aware that the Harriers were bred specifically to spend hours in the field chasing after prey. They need ample exercise every day. Without appropriate exercise outlets the Harrier may become bored and destructive.

The Harriers make wonderful long walking or hiking partners. Keep them on a leash so they do not wonder off hunting and chasing animals to follow a scent. They do well in canine sports such as tracking, rally, coursing and ability tests. You will want to start these dogs out early on a nutritional supplement such as the Life's Abundance Agility Supplement.

The ability to move freely and comfortably is crucial to your companion animal’s well-being. Unfortunately, aching and stiff joints are often a symptom of growing old for them as well as us. And some breeds are simply more prone to these issues and need extra support. 

Typical supplements treat the joint as an isolated target. This approach proves inadequate because joints are part of a complex, interdependent system. To effectively address joint health, grain-free Agility Formula supports the entire musculoskeletal system. 

This formula helps maintain healthy joint cartilage and connective tissue, and to aid in the production of healthy synovial fluid, which lubricates the joints. This supplement features Glucosamine, MSM, sea mussels and hyaluronic acid. Agility Formula is a holistic, multi-action joint support formula containing scientifically tested ingredients. 

Glucosamine helps maintain and promote joint and connective tissue health. It has been shown to be essential in the healthy development and ongoing maintenance of connective tissue and synovial fluid. Research studies indicate that Glucosamine supports healthy joint flexibility, mobility and lubrication. Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) is a natural source of organic sulfur, integral to many body functions and particularly vital to the maintenance of a healthy musculoskeletal system. 

Sea mussels also contain Chondroitin Sulfate, which works in tandem with Glucosamine. And hyaluronic acid (from kollaGen II-xsTM) helps to keep cartilage strong and flexible to better cushion joints. 

All of these nutrients work synergistically with the other ingredients in Agility Formula (vitamins E and C, boswellia serrata, alfalfa leaf extract, chondroitin sulfate, manganese and boron) to provide for the comprehensive joint needs of dog or cats, to help maintain the health of bones, cartilage, ligaments and tendons. 

With no fillers or additives, Agility Formula has a delectable flavor they’ll love! Join thousands of satisfied customers, and help your companion animals lead a healthier and happier life with Agility Formula. 

They respond well to family life and are loving, amiable companions for the entire family. Provide firm, calm and loving leadership.

February is Pet Dental Care Month

There is a reason why an entire month is dedicated to spreading awareness about the oral hygiene of our dogs and cats: it’s an easily remedied problem with potentially dire consequences.

Every February, we celebrate National Pet Dental Health Month in hopes that we’ll reach pet parents in a way that results in a change. According to the American Veterinary Dental College, 80% of dogs and 70% of cats will need dental care by age three. This is often due to genetics, neglect or poor diet. Sadly, tooth and gum problems in domesticated animals are nothing new. In fact, two Ancient Egyptian fossils of cats showed signs of tooth decay!

Does My Pet Need a Dentist?

According to the American Dental Association, almost 80% of adults brush their teeth daily. And on top of that, it is natural for us to schedule professional cleanings into our annual calendar. Why should the standard be any less for our precious companions?

There are several warning signs of an unhealthy mouth. Some are obvious and others, not so obvious. As a pet parent, it is important to investigate your pet's mouth on a regular basis and check for the following:

• Breath: When your pup swoops in for a kiss, do you detect a foul odor? Unhealthy-smelling breath is a good indicator of the presence of unfriendly bacteria in your pet's mouth.
• Teeth: Lift the lip and inspect the teeth. Are they healthy white or are they coated in a brown film? If it's the latter, it means your pet is long overdue for a cleaning.
• Gums: Color should be medium pink, although some dogs and cats will have black or gray spots on the gums, which is normal for some breeds. If the gums are bright red and angry looking, that could indicate a serious problem.

If you detect any of these warning signs, your companion animal would greatly benefit from a veterinary dental screening. But why wait for warning signs? Why not be more proactive? The combination of routine home checks, regular veterinarian checks and a quality diet could go a long way towards ensuring your pet's lasting dental health.

Head Shape & Dental Health

Believe it or not, the shape of your pet's head (particularly the size of his or her muzzle) affects tooth alignment. And why is tooth alignment important for dental health? Well, perfectly aligned teeth naturally push food particles away from gums, while poorly aligned teeth can result in plaque buildups, possibly leading to an increased chance of infection.

While poor tooth alignment is typically a genetic issue, a pet's activities can also result in alignment problems. For example, tug-of-war games with towels or ropes played often over the course of years, can move teeth from their normal position. Therefore, you might want to limit such activities.

Try Something New This in February 2019

This is the perfect occasion to try something new and integrate it into your dog’s dental care regimen. Life's Abundance distributes several products to help with dog dental health. These are:

• Gourmet Dental Treats for Adult Dogs
  
• Buffalo Bully Sticks
  
• Porky Puffs 
  

There's never been a better time to provide your dog with yummy, nutritious treats that can actually help to maintain a healthy mouth.
