| Veterinary Acupuncture |
 |
Acupuncture involves the insertion of small
gauge needles to various points on the body
in order to cause physiological responses in
the body. Acupuncture works by stimulating
nerve endings near acupuncture points. These
nerve fibers then conduct impulses to the
brain and spinal cord, causing changes in the
body that speed healing. Animal owners are
showing a growing interest in this field in
an effort to find the best care for their
pets, especially when conventional medicine
and surgery options may not have been
successful. Learn more by watching this
interesting video.

| AMERICAN VETERINARY MEDICAL ASSOCIATION LAUNCHES |
 |
New Campaign Supports an In-Clinic Education
Program
Sponsored by the AVMA and Fort Dodge Animal
Health
SCHAUMBURG, IL (August 22, 2007) / PRNewswire
/ -- Is it risky for your cat to chase a
squirrel? Or your dog to drink from a puddle?
How risky are fleas and ticks? These are some
of the questions raised in a new public
service campaign -- "Being a Pet is Risky
Business" -- from the American Veterinary
Medical Association (AVMA). Funded by an
educational grant from Fort Dodge Animal
Health, the campaign seeks to raise awareness
about common pet disease risks and how to
protect against them.
The campaign's television and radio public
service announcements (PSAs) humorously
depict pets in atypical risky situations --
skydiving, scuba diving and surfing -- to
call attention to typical, routine daily
activities where cats and dogs are frequently
and more realistically exposed to
disease-causing organisms. The PSAs inform
consumers that disease risks, which all pets
face, can be significantly reduced through
individual pet risk assessment and
twice-a-year wellness exams from a
veterinarian.
The television PSA spots were filmed at
Animal Hospital of Pittsford, located near
Rochester, NY. Dr. Tomeka Smith, Dr. Meghan
Duffy and Veterinary Technicians Jennifer
Nardone and Caitlin Fredenburg appear in the
PSA.
"The 'Risky Business' PSA campaign is a good
example of how the AVMA fulfills its mission
of improving animal and human health by
bringing important information to the
public's attention," says AVMA President
Gregory Hammer, DVM. "We are grateful to Dr.
Smith, Dr. Duffy and their staff for sharing
their clinic, time and talents in filming the
television PSA and to Fort Dodge Animal
Health for its financial support of this
project."
Pet owners can learn more about disease risk
and prevention at local veterinary clinics
where the "Being a Pet is Risky Business"
campaign is underway. Free consumer brochures
and a variety of other materials are
available at clinics participating in
National Pet Wellness, an educational
initiative sponsored by the AVMA and Fort
Dodge Animal Health. Nearly 15,000 veterinary
clinics currently participate in National Pet
Wellness education campaigns.
"Wellness exams help your veterinarian detect
and, ideally, prevent problems before they
become serious, while risk assessments help
your veterinarian develop an individualized
disease protection program that's right for
your pet," says Craig Wallace, Vice President
-- Marketing, Fort Dodge Animal Health. "And,
because pets age much faster than we do, all
pets should be seen by their veterinarian
twice a year to maintain good health."

Wellness (Month) Web site - www.NPWM.com.
