 Welcome to Pet Talk Radio!
Happy New Year! 2009...
Wow doesn't time seem to just fly by us these days... Is it
because we're all so busy?... or just getting older? (Speak
for yourself Brian-KB!!)
Our pets of course have very little concept of time - they
tend to be guided by the daylight and the seasons... except
our three dogs of course... They know exactly when it's time
for breakfast and for dinner... Oh well... that's probably our
fault.
Of course Pet Talk Radio! is still 'time-less' and we
have many years worth of
free access archives for you via this website
and we really do hope to re-start regular weekly shows sometime in the
future.
If you've recently signed up for our updates - hang in
there... we'll keep you posted from time to time of what's
going on or if you simply missed our news about the future of the radio component of our
show you can see
it here or read about it here.
We'll have an update on this and our many other pet related
projects shortly - stay tuned!
Meantime - Hugs for your pets from Kaye & Brian

Our Feature Story this week is a 'no-brainer' if you live in
Australia!... We seem to have just about all of the world's insects and nasty
ouchy bity things right here.
They particularly affect our pets during summer and while most are not
life-threatening, they can cause major discomfort to any pets - whether it's a
bird, rabbit, dog or cat or even a horse!
This week Dr Harry Cooper gives all dog owners some good advice.

 Dr Harry's Top 5 'Summer Nasties' to avoid!
With Australia's most popular veterinarian – Dr Harry Cooper
 Australia is home to more creatures that bite and sting than anywhere else on the planet, which means our dogs play Russian roulette every time they go out in the backyard!
For instance, did you know that one spider that is deadly to humans has no effect at all on dogs, while another spider's bite can kill a dog if left untreated? What about ticks and snakes?
Listen to Dr Harry Cooper's top tips to avoid the top nasties!
