The Power of a Dog's Nose

There has been a lot of research done on how powerful the dog's scent is over humans and other animals. Army researchers especially have found there were no mechanical or electronic devices as effective as a dog in detecting mines, booby traps and explosives. Dogs won the prize for highly effective scent tracking even over various types of pigs, coyotes, deer, red foxes, etc.

Dogs start out their lives learning about their environment almost exclusively by smell and touch. They are born with their eyes close. Their eyes usually don't open until about 2 weeks of age. They find their mother's milk simply by scent. Within a short time they know their mother's scent from other objects. You can test an infant puppy by taking the mom away for a period of time, then placing her back in the area with her puppies and her scent is the smell of safety and comfort to her puppies who most likely have been crying because of her absence, but immediately upon smelling her will become quiet.

You can also comfort your dogs with special meals that have a delicious smell. Try feeding your dogs Life's Abundance Canned Turkey and Shrimp. Sit back and watch how much they enjoy just the smell of the tender turkey and succulent shrimp in a delicious broth. It is chock full of healthy fats and minerals plus nutritious eggs and cheddar cheese. You might be tempted to take a bit yourself!

Your dog will flip for Turkey & Shrimp in Broth, a savory omelet-inspired meal featuring turkey, shrimp, eggs, red skinned potatoes, red bell peppers and cheddar cheese. And the goodness doesn’t end there! In fact, canines can’t resist the delightful flavor of this delicious medley, seasoned with just the right amount of basil and parsley.

 Turkey and Shrimp
Serve as a complete and wholesome stand-alone meal or as mouth-watering topper for our premium kibble. No matter how you dish it out, Turkey & Shrimp in Broth is the perfect way to deliver powerful nutrition, canned feast style! Either way, you are giving your dog a unique thrill based upon "scent power."

Common Characteristics and Problems of a Beagle

In general the Beagle makes a great companion dog for families with children as well as older people. They have a few common problems such as:

Beagle Upsy
  • a strong tendency to wander off with their nose glued to the ground while completely ignoring their owner's commands to do otherwise
  • can be somewhat hard headed and independent especially when learning new commands such as "Sit, Come or Down"
  • can be easily distracted by things going on around them
  • some beagle owners complain of their beagle's tendency to sing or bay in a high tenor tone when excited
However, in spite of the above problems noted by beagle owners they still are quite popular as pets because of their high level of affection and low level of aggression. In a house full of kids, a beagle most usually blends right in and plays right along with the kids quite happily. While at home with elderly folks they are just as happy in the role of couch potato. Beagles are also well known for being tranquil and tolerant.

Grooming needs are quite minimal. Give the Beagle a weekly bath and you are good to go. For best results use the Life's Abundance all Natural Grooming Products.

Beagles need their chew treats just like any other breed of dog. Provide them with appropriate and nutritious chew treats such as a Porky Puff and you will be happy to see how satisfying a Porky Puff is to your Beagle.

Porky Puffs are a safe alternative to rawhide, which can cause choking, throat irritations and potentially dangerous intestinal blockages.

Dog Diarrhea Remedies

Dog diarrhea is a fairly common affliction. Should you rush to the vet or will it pass is the big question. Truth is much like people dogs just sometimes get diarrhea. They do not always need medical attention.
If your dog seems otherwise normal and is on a monthly parasite preventative medication, then taking care of your dog at home usually solves the occasional bout of diarrhea. A lot of times, it just passes on its own. However, if there are other signs of illness such as vomiting, temperature, loss of appetite, depression or pain, go to the vet for diagnosis and treatment.
At home treatment for the occasional bout of dog diarrhea can be:
  • a bland diet such as boiled hamburger or chicken with broth and rice for 2 or 3 days
  • probiotics available through  your vet or an over-the-counter probiotic and frequent walks
  • avoid human remedies such as immodium as this medicine has an opioid in it and it is easy to overdose a dog
If your dog continues to do well otherwise and just has diarrhea, three to four days of at-home treatment should remedy the problem.

Of course, there is sometimes viruses and bacteria responsible for dog diarrhea which usually presents itself with the dog having a temperature as well. Be sure to check his temperature and if one is present you probably need to see the vet for appropriate evaluation and treatment.

Even dogs up-to-date on monthly prevention can still have breakthrough parasitic infections. A fecal sample taken to your vet can reveal the culprit if this be the case. Sometimes all you have do is take a fecal sample to your vet to determine a parasitic infection.

Your dog may also be having dog food digestion problems. In that case, perhaps a change in food is in order. Life's Abundance Grain Free All Life Stages Dog food is free of corn and wheat.

Tips For Taking Long Road Trips with Your Dogs

Road trips with your dog or dogs can be fun. Road trips are great to see new and out of the way parts of the country. New places you never knew existed can be exciting to discover and even more exciting to see the new areas through the eyes of your dog companions. Here are a few tips to help make your road trips with the family dogs safe, happy and carefree.


A nice ventilated pet carrier or crate for safety is mandatory. If you cannot find one to meet your needs, the next best thing is a pet safety belt or travel harness. Big dogs weighing 100 pounds or more often do better secured with a seat belt or travel harness. Smaller dogs ride well in pet carriers and crates.

During your road trip take care to never leave your dog or dogs alone as temperatures can climb quickly to ungodly and unsafe numbers. Practice this precaution even if you are going inside for a quick trip into a store or restaurant. It is probably best to travel with another person as it is most helpful to allow one person to stay with the dog(s) while the other goes into gas stations, restaurants or restroom trips. Planning ahead is the absolute best course of action to keep everyone safe during your adventure.


Another good idea is to make sure your pet(s) keep their heads inside the vehicle. There is nothing cuter than to see a dog enjoying the blowing wind with his head stuck outside the window, however, this can be dangerous. Oncoming traffic or flying objects could possibly injure pet(s) traveling this way.

How often you need to stop for pet bathroom breaks depends upon the breed and age of your pets. Young puppies will obviously need to stop more than adults. Senior dogs may need more frequent stops as well. A good rule of thumb is probably stopping every two hours to let your dogs stretch their legs at least. Take the stretching opportunity to grab yourself a snack or cup of coffee. Enjoy the time just soaking in the views while your pets enjoy a little stretch and a bathroom break if needed.

Limit how many super long days you have in the car and divide your trip up with stops at pet-friendly hotels or with friends and family. No more than seven hours per day is usually plenty enough for everyone concerned. Plan your route before leaving and call ahead to reserve pet friendly hotel rooms. Many hotels have size, breed or weight restrictions for dogs and some will limit the number of dogs who can stay.


Your rest stops should have easy-to-access parking lots and designated pet areas for walking and potty times. Be sure to pack lots of poop bags to clean up after your pets. Keep pets secure on a leash as traffic, wildlife and large trucks with big sounds can easily spook your dogs.

Thoroughly research local pet laws for each city and state you will be driving through. Some dog breeds such as a pit bull or other breed mixes are frequently discriminated against. You want to be sure you are not unknowingly going into an area that has laws in place that ban or otherwise restrict certain breeds.

Bring something familiar to your pet such as toys and healthy treats as car rides can bring on anxiety in some dogs. The familiar objects or healthy dog treats and chews will help your dog feel more comfortable.

Of course you will need to bring along portable water bowls, food and a pet first aid kit. Don't forget to pack pet medications, proof of vaccinations, a health certificate from your veterinarian and up-to-date identification tags on your dogs. An extra leash, collar and/or harness is nice to pack as well. Take a familiar dog blanket or bed for your stays in hotel rooms.

Before taking a long trip, it is a good idea to take your dog(s) on short trips just to get them use to riding in a vehicle and gradually increase the time spent on the road. If you find your dog(s) do not feel well on practice trips talk to your vet about special anti-nausea medicines and ways to adjust their meal times.

If you plan ahead your trip should be exciting and enjoyable for everyone!
