ADVERTISING FEATURE PETS ON PARADE TRACKSIDE PET MEATS Pet owners are healthier and happier “RESEARCH shows that people who own pets are healthier and happier as they provide a sense of well-being and allow people to feel a part of their community,” said Dr David Neck, President of the Australian Small Animal Veterinary Association, a special interest group of the AVA. “A pet staring up at you when you come home asking for that pat of recognition can help to put everything in perspective. “I get a real kick out of being greeted by my dog Fonti at the end of a hard day. “Her affection is boundless. She offers love, companionship and a non-judgemental ear, all for a bit of food and attention.” For many people one of the best ways to destress is through regular moderate exercise, which is exactly the sort of exercise you get interacting with your devoted companion. “Walking your pet in your neighbourhood gives you a strong appreciation of your environment and gets you out talking to others who are doing the same thing.” Dr Neck said that like humans, animals need to interact and communicate in order to remain healthy. “This becomes a win win. Pets need regular exercise, socialisation, a healthy diet and love and attention and they’ll give back four-fold. “It’s important to ensure you can provide all of these things before getting a pet and choose the right pet to suit your lifestyle.” JOIN THE FOR IT’S ANNUAL FUNDRAISER Reward your dog with a bone from trackside meats of chicken wings (approx 2kg per bag) $6 bag ANDAMI COMPLEX, JUBILEE HIGHWAY WEST PH: 8725 7411 631971 own weight in food each day every bird must eat at least half its T FACT PET o survive, A pack of kittens is called a kindle, while a pack of adult cats is called a clowder.
