Just finally catching up with all of dad’s appearances. He’s hard to keep track of, that’s for sure!
Thought you’d like to know that his segment on foods to beware of is now up on the ABCNews Web site. The piece was shot when he was in New York recently for a “Good Morning America” appearance.
What are the foods to look out for? Avocados and macadamia nuts, to start with. Check out the segment for the rest, and for tips on keeping your pet safe from these hazards.

mmmm - avocado is a favorite of mine and the dogs. Been sharing avocados with them for years - we all love them!

Hmmmm…seems like the link’s not working. I can’t find it. Must be my need for morning coffee…

Maybe a temporary hangup on the ABC server. It was working last night, and it seems to be working now. :)
Oh, and slt … the avocado issue is mostly a warning for people with bird, and Dr. B explains on the video. Gotta take care of ALL pets, after all!
