Wow.

Just blink and summer is practically gone. I do hope you’ve had an opportunity to enjoy the outdoors before the grey of Fall returns. To help brighten your days, have a look at your special offer below. There’s just something about a rubber chicken that brings out a smile, and these are no exception!

Also, don’t miss this month’s invitation to complete a very short survey. It’s time once again to take a look at what we can improve or refine. Your comments are extremely important in helping us understand how to meet your changing needs. Complete the short survey by the end of September, and you’ll receive a surprise gift on your next delivery before the end of November. You can also complete the survey anonymously, but then we won’t know where to send your gift!

 

YOUR SPECIAL OFFER

Buy an adult, get a free “child”

Earl, Grandma, Grandpa and Henrietta
Earl, Grandma, Grandpa and Henrietta

These captivating rubber chicken are being offered at a special price this month in advance of Thanksgiving. Why? Well, we think rubber chickens are just… fun. And if you agree, you can not only save a bit of scratch on an Adult Earl, Grandma Hippie Chick, Grandpa Gimpy Hip or Henrietta, we’ll toss in the child version of that toy as well, absolutely free!

Now you may not have use for that child if you have a large dog, but I’ll wager you’ve got a friend who would be egg-static to receive a silly sounding toy. So scramble over to get your full size Fowl(s) and have fun with the kids! And remember, each toy has its own distinct sound- these may not just be for the dogs!

You must mention this Clucking eMuse offer when you place your order to receive your freebie!
Adult sizes are approximately 13-16 inches tall, kids are 8- 9 inches in height.
You may have seen Henzilla on Facebook last month settling into her new home in Edmonds. Henzilla is an endangered species and no longer available.

Feeding trials and laboratory analysis are two ways to determine the nutritional adequacy of a pet food.
Feeding trials and laboratory analysis determine the nutritional adequacy of a pet food.

What Goes Into an AAFCO Feeding Trial?

Imagine being one of a carefully selected group, given medical screening, and then guided into comfortable quarters. Carefully portioned food and water is prepared just for you. After a short while, you’re joined by seven friends. Depending on your hosts, you may be coddled or ignored, but always well fed.

Week after week, the same food appears in carefully measured portions. Over time, some of your friends may disappear. For 26 weeks, you’ll be well fed, observed and ushered in for medical attention as needed. You may even have the opportunity to play a bit, but no snacks or treats are allowed. Sound like a good time?

When a new pet food is introduced, certain nutritional standards must be met before it can carry the all-important AAFCO (Association of American Feed Control Officials) certification. Read more…

Precise Foundation Moves to 30 Pound Bags

PreciseNatFoundIt’s the end of an(other) era.

The best selling 40 pound bag of Precise Foundation has finally been retired. With the new packaging introduced last month, Precise has discontinued the 40 pound size, and has transitioned to a new 30 pound bag. Our last 40 pound bag was sold this week.

If you’re on an auto-delivery schedule which was carefully calculated to reflect the time it took to work through a 40 pound bag, your schedule has been adjusted to reflect the new size. Although the cost of the bag has gone down, the price per pound has gone up slightly. To their credit, Precise has dropped the price along with the bag size. Read more…
