Dogs And Their Allergies
By: Jessica Mercier

A former coworker has a dog that had begun itching and scratching incessantly. So much so, he had worn away a lot of his fur. She took him to the vet suspecting fleas; as it turned out, he was allergic to wheat which is in many dog treats and foods.
When we started our dog treat business, we gave out some samples to dog owners we know and she had to turn them away so her beloved Snoopy wouldnÂ’t get sick.
Many dogs have problems with wheat, onions and garlic. If your dog has any strange behaviors or illnesses following consumption of a new food or treat, you may wish to consult your veterinarian to rule out an allergy.
Other items that your dogs should NEVER EVER eat, but would if given the opportunity, is CHOCOLATE! Chocolate contains harmful chemicals theobromine, caffeine and theophylline. If consumed, death is not certain but a trip to the vet will perhaps be necessary. We use carob or yogurt chips to offer a sweet and safe alternative.
In the meantime, we at AbbyÂ’s Dog Treat Bakery have developed several wheat, garlic and onion free treats as we believe all dogs should have access to delicious, wholesome, home-baked treats.

From big to small, from ready to stalled (Pioneer Press)BY LAURA YUEN PIONEER PRESS The heartbeat of every city starts at its core, and the development of St. Paul's downtown and riverfront is driving a steady pulse. The past year brought forward plans for a glass-and-steel condominium high-rise and the completion of a new downtown park. But it also saw the end of a Renaissance and the submersion of a developer's Island.
WHAT HAPPENED TO GLAMOUR? (The Monterey County Herald)Is Paris Hilton glamorous? She meets all the criteria. She's young, shiny, obscenely rich and reckless. She does precisely as she likes. She's an heiress. Old money! (Mature, anyway.) She is pure, uncompromised artifice. Noel Coward or Preston Sturges could have made her up -- if it weren't for the sex tape. And the hamburger ad. And the album. And her mother.
Stinky canine? Don’t despair (Albany Democrat-Herald)Let’s face it — dogs don’t always smell so good. Dogs, by nature, don’t seem to be interested in smelling good. For the typical dog owner, there’s no better time to snuggle with your pet than when it is freshly bathed and smelling like that nice flowery shampoo.
