Happy New Year… In February
Hello Friends…
It has been a crazy few months. I am now back to blogging full time.
I want to really focus this blog in 2008. The hope is to have many quest writers bringing their thoughts and wisdom to the readers of Leading Edge Pet Care. Topics will include dog breeds, cat breeds, dog training, pet grooming, pet food, pet supplies, and of course the occasional shout out to Massimo the Ragdoll.
Please respond with any topics that you want us to cover. If you have any questions about pet care, ask and I will find an expert to answer. Enjoy your pets! Enjoy your life!
Dogfighting - A Sport for Idiots
I want to start this out by saying that I have nothing against Pit Bulls. If trained well and with the right purpose, they are great pets.
Last night, my wife and I were watching CSI. Dogfighting was a big part of the story line. It reminded me of how much I hate dogfighting. As a pet owner and a pet enthusiast, I cannot believe the stupidity and cruelty of those that breed and train dogs to fight.

Dogfighting is a sadistic and idiotic contest in which two dogs are placed in a pit to fight each other for the spectators’ entertainment. Often, the spectators gamble on the outcome of the fight. Fights average nearly an hour in length and often last more than two hours. Dogfights end when one of the dogs will not or cannot continue.
The dogs that fight sustain severe injuries that are sometimes fatal. Dogs used in these events often die of shock, blood loss, dehydration, exhaustion, or infection hours or even days after the fight.
What person in their right mind would participate in such an act? In the words of Oklahoma State University football coach Mike Gundy, it’s garbage… it makes me want to puke. That is all I have to say about that.
The Top Five Gifts For Your Pet
Christmas is almost here! If you haven’t bought gifts for your pets, the time is now. We have worked to compile a list of innovative pet products that will enhance the lives of both the pet owner and the pet. Below are the top five gifts for your pet this Christmas. Bring your pets the quality of life they deserve.
Control your pet’s eating habits and improve their health with minimum effort! The Ergo Auto Pet Feeder allows you to feed your pets at the same time everyday (up to eight times/day), even if you are not at home! Easy to use and operate.

Give your pets continous fresh filtered water! This automatic pet waterer keeps your pet well hydrated and healthy. It is veterinarian approved and pet loved.

3. Infra-Red Automatic Dog Door (Automatic Cat Door)
Keep strays and other animals out of the house while allowing your dog the automatic access you choose! Programmable rotating deadbolt secures door from inside for one of four settings: fully-closed, in-only, out-only, or two-way operation.

I am a cat person… so of course there will be the product that every cat needs. Continuously clean your litter box without disturbing your cat! The Simply Clean™ Litter Box System reduces odor-causing bacteria by continuously removing waste from the litter bowl into a built-in receptacle automatically, 24 hours a day. Your cat’s litter box is always fresh and ready for use.

The perfect answer to easy pet care! The Ionic Waterless Bath Pet Massage Brush allows you to clean and massage your pet from the comforts of your home with minimal effort. Reduces pet odors without messy baths or harmful chemicals, and relaxes your pet through its gentle massage action.
