"Barks of Approval"
Testimonials

"My dog Winnie the Pooch (pug puppy) loves her spiral tug toy. She plays with it daily, chews it, cuddles it, and loves it. It really lasts too!!! A great dog like Winnie deserves the best...and this toy is supreme!" David F.- Customer
"A friend of mine tried the 7-tooth Groomer on her English Springer Spaniel, and she told me: 'It gets out so much more loose fur than the comb I had. It really takes out the loose fur by the handfuls! Those little hooks on the end of the teeth actually gently pull out the loose fur instead of just moving through it as a normal comb would do".-Jill F. (#1748, Toledo, OH)
"My daughter uses the 7 tooth on our Angora Rabbit AND our Pekinese, it works GREAT! I highly recommend it." - Laura A. (#2348, Crescent City, CA)

Dear Pet Lover,
According to economists, the US is experiencing the most challenging economic period since the Great Depression, and for most people this is the worst economic time of their lives. I believe that during this time we need to assess opportunities differently. Direct selling, I believe, offers a great platform to earn supplemental income and to build a business. At Shure Pets, we are in a unique position for the following reasons: 1) the pet category is still growing and is projecting continued growth 2) direct selling tends to show an uptick in recruitment activity during tougher economic times and 3) we are a young company with a strong product line that provides what pet lovers are seeking and value. We continue to see great opportunities. Both our sales and recruitment for November are up compared to October. We have introduced a number of programs that I believe will help you reach your objectives, be it seeking supplemental income or building a business. I encourage you to review our programs and take advantage of our "recession buster" New Puppy on The Block Kit priced at $99.00 (s &h and sales tax not included) This special kit is in addition to our standard kit which is priced at $149.00. Also, I joined Facebook a couple of months ago on the suggestion of Ellen B., one of our Pet Consultants, and have enjoyed networking with others. I would like to invite you to join me and the Shure Pets group on Facebook as well. (please see below) I look forward to hearing form you.
Best wishes this holiday season to you and your family. Sincerely,
Andrew

Purr-fect Pet Health Tips
As the winter months and holidays approach, you need to take time to ensure that your pets enjoy a happy, healthy holiday season.
Housing: It is best to keep pets indoors during the winter months, but if this is not possible, outdoor pets must be provided with shelter. Their home should be elevated off the ground to prevent moisture accumulation and have a door of some kind to keep out winter winds, sleet, and snow. Shelters should be insulated or heated. Water sources may be heated to permit constant access to unfrozen water; thermal units designed specifically for this purpose are readily available. Outdoor pets require extra calories to keep warm, so feed your pet according to its needs when the temperature drops. In severely cold or inclement weather, no pet should be kept outside. Indoor pets should have sleeping quarters in a draft-free, warm area with their bed or mattress elevated slightly off the floor.
Roaming cats: Roaming cats, as well as house pets and wildlife, may climb onto vehicle engines for warmth during cold weather. Be sure to check under the hood before starting your vehicle and honk the horn to startle any animals seeking shelter inside.
Frostbite and snow removal salt: Snow and salt should be removed from your pets paws immediately. Frostbitten skin is red or gray and may slough. Apply warm, moist towels to thaw out frostbitten areas slowly until the skin appears flushed. Contact your veterinarian as soon as possible for further care. Snow removal products should be stored out of the reach of pets and small children as their toxicity varies considerably.
Toxic plants and holiday/winter products: Plants and other items associated with the winter and holiday season can be toxic to your pets. What follows is a general guide. Please consult your veterinarian, animal poison control, and the manufacturer for specifics. Remember, the earlier you seek treatment, the better for your pet!
Low toxicity: poinsettia leaves/stems; balsam/pine/cedar/fir; angel hair (spun glass); Christmas tree preservatives; snow sprays/snow flock; tree ornaments; super glue; styrofoam; icicles (tinsel); and crayons/paints.
Moderate toxicity: fireplace colors/salts; plastic model cement
Moderate to high toxicity: holly berries and leaves; bubbling lights (methylene chloride); snow scenes (may contain salmonella); aftershaves/perfumes/alcoholic beverages; and chocolate (dark is more toxic than milk).
Highly toxic: mistletoe (especially berries); expoxy adhesives; and antifreeze.
Please note that some items have special problems. For example, whereas angel hair is usually considered to be of low toxicity, it can irritate eyes, skin, and the gastrointestinal tract; the content of Christmas tree preservatives varies and often effects depend upon the amount ingested; styrofoam, small parts from Christmas tree ornaments and toys, as well as tinsel, can cause mechanical obstructions in the gastrointestinal tract; snow flock can cause problems if sprayed into the mouth and inhaled; and chocolate, of any type, should never be given to a pet. Antifreeze deserves special mention because even a very small amount can be rapidly fatal to pets.

A Cat's Diary
DAY 752 - My captors continue to taunt me with bizarre little dangling objects. They dine lavishly on fresh meat, while I am forced to eat dry cereal. The only thing that keeps me going is the hope of escape, and the mild satisfaction I get from ruining the occasional piece of furniture. Tomorrow I may eat another houseplant.
DAY 761 - Today my attempt to kill my captors by weaving around their feet while they were walking almost succeeded, must try this at the top of the stairs. In an attempt to disgust and repulse these vile oppressors, I once again induced myself to vomit on their favorite chair...must try this on their bed.
DAY 762 - Slept all day so that I could annoy my captors with sleep depriving, incessant pleas for food at ungodly hours of the night.
DAY 765 - Decapitated a mouse and brought them the headless body, in attempt to make them aware of what I am capable of, and to try to strike fear into their hearts. They only cooed and condescended about what a good little cat I was...Hmmm. Not working according to plan.
DAY 768 - I am finally aware of how sadistic they are. For no good reason I was chosen for the water torture. This time however it included a burning foamy chemical called "shampoo." What sick minds could invent such a liquid. My only consolation is the piece of thumb still stuck between my teeth.
DAY 771 - There was some sort of gathering of their accomplices. I was placed in solitary throughout the event. However, I could hear the noise and smell the foul odor of the glass tubes they call "beer." More importantly I overheard that my confinement was due to MY power of "allergies." Must learn what this is and how to use it to my advantage....
DAY 774 - I am convinced the other captives are flunkies and maybe snitches. The dog is routinely released and seems more than happy to return. He is obviously a half-wit. The Bird, on the other hand, has got to be an informant. He has mastered their frightful tongue (something akin to mole speak) and speaks with them regularly. I am certain he reports my every move. Due to his current placement in the metal room his safety is assured. But I can wait, it is only a matter of time.
