Eliminodor For Cats:  Super safe and effective enzyme spray that eats away the sulfur bond that makes cat urine and stool and body odors so unpleasant.  Great for spraying the litter box as well as furniture.  $18

Eliminodor with Repellent:  This enzyme product is meant for carpets and furniture and works really well at eliminating pet odors, urine odors, stool odors, and also works well at preventing pets from remarking.  This product is only fairly good at removing stains.  So: Great for odors. Great for repelling.  And fair for stains.  $18

Elimiodor Canine:  Designed to spray directly on dogs or furniture.  If used every 1-3 days, this spray does a great job of destroying strong doggy odors. $18

Pet Candles:  These candles come in a variety of scents but are designed and work well for pet odors and cigarette odors ! $8

Urine Off:  The very best product ever made for removing urine stains.  Fairly expensive: $20  There's one made for cat urine and another for dog urine.  Guaranteed; just bring it back ... no receipt needed ... if it doesn't work great.

Black Light:  Rent for Free ($20 deposit) or buy for $20.  This hand held light is the same used in detective movies to show up blood and other body excretions.  Use it to find all the hidden spots where your pets have urinated.

The Equilizer:  This inexpensive stain remover works fairly well on stool and urine stains.  But's it most popular for Carolina Red mud stains.

ThioTrol Skunk Spray and Shampoo:  Our most effective skunk odor remover.

BioGroom Scented Shampoos:  Some pets, even though they have healthy skin, secrete more body oils and odors than others.  Frequent shampooing helps a lot with these pets and we have a selection of inexpensive, scented shampoos that are very gentle and designed for frequent use.  $8 

HyLyt Shampoos:  HyLyt is the best shampoo I've used on pets for making skin supple and healthy.  It's an emollient shampoo with omega fatty acids, and if used weekly will lead to much healthier skin with much reduced seborrhea, flaking, dander, and odor.

The Furminator:  This expensive ($30-50 for the different sizes) German made, ceramic blade comb is the best we've used to remove loose hair and undercoats.  Greatly reduces shedding, the need for vacuuming, and makes the skin healthier too.  Works really well on some types of hair coats and not so well on others.  Try one on your pet when you're in the clinic.

Shed Guard:  Invented in Israel for balding men !  I have 3 comments:
- This product leaves a tacky, hair spray like residue on fluffy or silky haired pets, so I don't like it for those pets.
- But for short haired pets like Dachshunds, Dalmatian, Dobermans, and so forth, it really makes for a beautiful, shiny coat.  Excellent !
- And it really works well for shedding in about half the pets we try it on after about 3 weeks use. 

Duoxo or Phytosphingosine: This hard to pronounce extraordinary product is popular with human dermatologists for cracked skin, dry skin, seborrhea, dander, and so on.  It works great in dogs and cats to help heal damaged skin making the pet more comfortable and also more pleasant to be around; less odor, less flaking etc.  The superglue like tubes are $3.00 and applied over the back or directly on any damaged skin once a week.  It takes about 3-4 weeks to see a big difference.

OFA's:   Omega Fatty Acids may sound awful, but these are the healthy, natural, sub units of certain fats (cold water fish oils) that turn out to be vitally important to the health of collagen and connective tissue.  Supplementing with high quality Omega Fatty Acids products improves the health of blood vessels, kidneys, joints, eye sight, wound healing, the immune system, brain function, and skin.
Because they're vital in so many parts of the body, you will notice that I promote OFA's for numerous problems.  We have several different types to choose from; capsules, chewable treats, or in concentrated oil form.  They all cost about $8-12 a month depending on the size of your pet.  Another choice is to feed Salmon & Rice Diet which naturally contains ample
Omega 3





Great Products For
Odors, Stains, & Shedding

Pets add a lot of joy to our lives most of the time, but it's true that they also cause a number of
problems we have to deal with.

One of those problems is odor.

If your pet has a strong odor problem, the first step is to make sure there isn't an underlying medical problem such as dental disease, ear infections, urine leakage, skin inflammation, or anal gland problems.

Other pet problems are not medical and include urine marking, wet dogs, muddy paw prints, non-medical body odors, shedding, odors rubbing off on furniture, & litter box odors.

Check out the list of products to your right and make life pleasant for yourselves.

Eukanuba
Salmon & Rice Diet
for Dogs:

I've become a big fan of this super healthy diet.  Try it for about 6 weeks and about half the dogs trying it will benefit with greatly improved skin, coats, and ears.  I'm talking about greatly reduced shedding, beautiful, shiny coats, no doggy odor, no anal gland problems, butt scooting, and no ear inflammation.

This diet is exceptional for 3 reasons:

1.  Good for dogs with food allergies

2.  All the benefits of therapeutic doses of Omega 3  for the skin, ears, and glands

3.  All the health benefits of Omega 3 for the heart, vessels, kidneys, eyes, brain, immune system, and joints.

Plus: while this diet is more expensive than regular pet foods, many dogs can get off the steroids, antihistamines, and antibiotics they previously needed to be comfortable.
