Are you confused as to what to feed your pet, whether to buy nutritional supplements or how to assemble a pet first aid kit? Have you worried whether a food or plant is poisonous to your cat or dog? And have you started to research these subjects, but were overwhelmed by the number of books you need to absorb to find the right answers? If the answer to any of these is “yes,” then you need to pick up or order a copy of Mary Jansky’s new booklet “The Natural Pet: Holistic Guide to Your Pet’s Health,” which is illustrated by Mission Beach dog trainer and whimsical artist Marcia Wigdahl. The co-owner of Noah’s Natural Pet Market, 4431 Cass St. in Pacific Beach, and a nutritionist by training, Jansky developed the booklet as an easy reference for customers to find quick answers to common questions. After the 2007 pet food recall, she and Noah’s Natural pet market partner Liz Oshant found themselves answering frequent questions about the safety and nutritional value of pet food and explaining how to read a label and what to look for and avoid. That was the genesis of this “beginners’ guide” to nutrition and health for pets. “It compiles years of information and sums up my studies with vets, herbalists, trainers and nutritionists,” Jansky explained. The booklet is available at the store or online for $8.99. For more information www.noahsnaturalpetmarket.com or call (858) 270-8161.
