  • Noise phobia in dogs - Summer thunderstorms and celebratory fireworks are horrors for those unfortunate dogs that suffer from a noise phobia.

When the dog eats carbohydrates this stimulates the production of insulin which in turn increases the uptake of Tryptophan and so increases the level of Serotonin.

  • Confessions of a Cynical, Self Absorbed, Picky Petsumer - Ok, I admit it…I have a bad attitude.
