You will recall that at convention, I asked what problem GDB was trying to fix when they let Field Services Reps go. The answers ran from long commutes to missed communications to some people not getting service. Here's an easier explanation. They had to pay for that new state of the art dorm building somehow. I'll not talk of this again, for it will do no good. My next dog will come from some other school. If they would lie about this, what other secrets are there? -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

The reps were not let go for that reason, but rather for one less sensible, a "business desire" to cut budgets.

Message-ID: <00cc01cee239$1c273d70$5475b850$@gmail.com> Subject: article Is Trifexis killing dogs? Is Trifexis killing dogs? There is a 'new' drug in the veterinary market called Trifexis. The company manufacturing the drug claims it is safe, but there have been hundreds of reported side effects, and over 300 dog deaths. What is it? Trifexis is a monthly chewable tablet for dogs. Trifexis kills fleas and prevents flea infestations, treats and controls hookworms, whipworms and roundworms, and prevents heartworm disease. Trifexis contains 2 drugs: (spinosad + milbemycin oxime). Milbemycin has been used for 20 years with virtually no side effects. The concern is with this 'new' drug, spinosad. Here is what the company has to say about side effects with Trifexis As with all medicines, sometimes side effects may occur. In some cases, dogs vomited after receiving Trifexis. If vomiting occurs within an hour of administration, redose with another full dose. During field studies, no severe or prolonged vomiting occurred. Additional adverse reactions observed in the clinical studies were itching, decreased activity, diarrhea, inflammation of the skin, redness of the skin, decreased appetite and redness of the ear. All reactions were regarded as mild The FDA compiles adverse drug reports, and there are a huge number reported on spinosad, the new drug in Trifexis. In going through the FDA reports, I counted over 400 adverse drug expreiences in dogs, not counting those affecting cats and people. Here are over 40 of the adverse effects: Clearly there are big problems with this drug, and the FDA should be warning pet owners and veterinarians about these potential side effects before more dogs become ill or die. When you add in the 222 reported dog deaths, plus 118 euthanized, there are 340 dogs reported dead as a result of Trifexis. In the interim I would suggest to not give your dog Trifexis. -- Mariea and Valiant __._,_.___ Reply via web post Reply to sender Reply to group Start a New Topic Messages in this topic (1) Recent Activity: Visit Your Group to contact the list owner TSE-Chat-owner at yahoogroups.com to subscribe TSE-Chat-subscribe at yahoogroups.com To receive message digests TSE-Chat-digest at yahoogroups.com To receive individual messages TSE-Chat-normal at yahoogroups.com To go no mail TSE-Chat-nomail at yahoogroups.com Switch to: Text-Only, Daily Digest .

Here is what is on the web site: "For ages 8 & up, from the author of THUNDER DOG, a #1 New York Times Bestseller RUNNING WITH ROSELLE How a blind boy and a puppy grew up, became best friends, and together survived on one of American's darkest days By Michael Hingson with Jeanette Hanscome A puppy who became a true American hero. The blind boy who let nothing stop him. When they finally grew up and met, it was magic. On September 11, 2001, a blind man escaped the World Trade Center by walking down 78 flights of stairs with his guide dog. Days later, America fell in love with Mike and Roselle, and the special bond that helped them survive. This is their story. Follow Roselle as she grows from an energetic yellow Lab prone to stealing her puppy raiser?s slippers to a confident guide dog who passes the ultimate test when her partner needs her most. Meet Mike, a boy blind from birth who excels in public school, shocks the neighbors by riding his bicycle through the streets of Palmdale, CA, drives a car around his college campus, and uses his relationship of trust and teamwork with Roselle to help others on a day that changed America forever."

Hi all, This is to announce that advanced copies of my new book for youth, "Running With Roselle" are finally available. Here is what is on the web site: "For ages 8 & up, from the author of THUNDER DOG, a #1 New York Times Bestseller RUNNING WITH ROSELLE How a blind boy and a puppy grew up, became best friends, and together survived on one of American's darkest days By Michael Hingson with Jeanette Hanscome A puppy who became a true American hero.

This book spends less time on 9-11 and more time on my growing up and living as a blind person. I also spend more time on Roselle's life and how she was trained. Again, my goal is to help teach people about blindness, now focusing on children and youth. Only print copies are available, and these are advanced copies that have not yet gone through all final edits. We have decided to put out the book at this time to defray some of our costs and because our focus group participants suggest that many will still want it for Christmas. The cost of the paperback book shipped is $12.95. Please check out www.michaelhingson.com for more details. Thanks. Best, Michael Hingson The Michael Hingson Group, INC.
