This week, there have been some valuable news stories for all you dog owners out there that we wanted to give you an update on, in case you haven’t heard…
ENCINO dog owners beware..
There have been several reported incidents of dogs who have been harmed, including 1 death, due to poisoning. This is a little reminder we should keep an eye on our dogs as much as possible. While acts like these break our hearts, we must ensure we keep our dogs as safe as possible and if there’s anything suspicious, be sure to contact the authorities. Learn more from the LA Times.
MICROCHIPPING may become the law in California…
and that’s good news! California legislators are considering a law that will require every cat or dog adopted at an animal shelter to be implanted with a lifesaving microchip. Read more about the microchipping law that may go into effect.
At Healthy Spot, from time to time, our friends from Found Animals will host microchipping sessions, oftentimes at a low cost sometimes as low as $5!
1.5 ACRE DOG PARK Coming Soon
The 1.5-acre park in the northwest section of the Crescenta Valley Community Regional Park will have separate entries and areas for small and large dogs. It will include drinking fountains, water faucets and hose-off and shady areas for the dogs, plus benches for their owners. Read more about the first LA COUNTY pilot progam dog park.

POWER UP… with mushrooms!
No, this isn’t a line from the Mario Brothers. This is for your dog!
Although we make reference to a video game, we are not playing around when advocating mushrooms for your companion animals. Mushrooms provide so much goodness. They give our dogs nutrients, proteins, minerals and vitamins it needs to generate energy and repair cells.
Here are some key attributes about mushrooms you may not know.
-Low in carbohydrates, calories and sodium
-High in fiber and protein
-Rich in Vitamin B, riboflavin, niacin and selenium
-Cholesterol and Fat Free
-Excellent source of potassium
It is important to know that Selenium is an antioxidant that helps to fight off the damaging effects of free radicals. As a result, regular ingestion of mushrooms has been proven to decrease the amount of cancerous cells in the body. They not only fight and reduce cancerous cells and tumors, but they help prevent more of those cells from forming in the body.
Mushrooms keep the body, through the boosting of immune cell function, in a state of vigilance. This helps your dog fight off disease, prevent cancer and generally keeping your animal in optimal health.
Since we recognize the importance of mushrooms for your pets health, we our giving our seal of approval to Organic Pet Superfood. The company provides 4 lines of mushroom whole-food daily supplements for our pets’ health.
1. Immunity – safeguards against free-radical damage and immune system imbalances.
2. Joints – potent nutrition for joint health.
3. Skin and Coat – for a healthy skin and glossy coat.
4. Digestion – efficient digestion and enhanced wellness for your pet.
The supplements are made in the USA, USDA certified organic, safe and non toxic and veterinarian approved. The mushroom blends are also adaptogenic. Just a fancy word for saying that, it gently adapts for your pet’s specific nutritional needs.

We are also fans of the brothers behind this company. No, not the Mario Brothers. We are referring to James and Michael Crouch. They come from a family that has been in the mushroom farming business since 1985. They married the family business with their passion for pets to come up with this great supplement line. The icing on the cake is that purchases also go help fund Cancer Treatment for working dogs.
After personally researching this line, I use the supplements for myself. Not just my dogs, but for me, too. Yes, I take this pet supplement for myself. Dog gone crazy? Maybe. But who doesn’t want to
