What do we mean by aging on horseback? About once a week I trail ride with my good friend Debbie. We showed horses together for many years, and I’m really enjoying introducing her to the more laid back experience of trail riding. So when she called to cancel this week, I was surprised. Then she explained that she’d taken a tumble off her gelding while riding in the arena, and needed to take it easy for a few days.

How to Keep Your Dog Cool This Summer

how to keep your dog cool

Stay safe, be cool As it’s getting to be summertime, you’re going to need tips on how to keep your dog cool to keep them safe. Did you know that a dog’s breath is 102 degrees with 100 percent humidity? They cool themselves by panting. But during the summer, it can be harder for them to get cool without some help from their owners. Keeping your dog in the heat, even in a dog house or shady area, can lead to heat stroke. Stay aware of the rising temperatures to prevent your pet from feeling the heat. How Hot is Too Hot? Because animals don’t process or react to heat in the same way as us, it can be difficult for owners to measure how hot is too hot for their pets.

Guest post courtesy of Kyle McKay. The views and opinions expressed in this article are those of the guest author and do not necessarily represent the views of Val Heart & Heart Communication Enterprises Inc.  What do we know about cat grooming behavior? Cats are notorious for their meticulous grooming behaviors. In fact, many felines spend approximately 50% of their waking hours grooming themselves. Although this may seem excessive, instinctive grooming offers a number of key benefits: Cooling– A cat’s saliva evaporates, taking body heat with it. Oil distribution – Grooming disperses oils that block moisture and trap heat. Claw maintenance– Cats also give themselves a mani-pedi, sprucing up their claws and pads.  Healing assistance– Cat saliva has antiseptic properties that can help wounds heal. Improved circulation– The bristles on a cat’s tongue stimulate blood flow. Parasite removal– These bristles also remove any unwanted passengers from fur. Relationship building– Cats […]

This article was previously published January 2, 2018, and was updated May 30, 2022 Have you ever thought about becoming a professional animal communicator? If you love animals and you know how to talk to them, the idea of making a living as a professional animal communicator talking to pets can be very exciting!

I love teaching and […]
