Date: 15/Jan/2013
Azodyl is a nutritional supplement that may decrease azotemia, a condition in which there is too much nitrogen—in the form of urea, creatinine, and other waste products—in the blood. Azotemia occurs in both dogs and cats that have chronic kidney disease (CKD). In theory, Azodyl works by adding nitrogen-consuming bacteria into the intestines. Azodyl should be considered an adjunct (secondary) treatment for CKD.

Care for Your Pet After Vaccination
Date: 10/Aug/2012

Cat Behavior and Training - Crate Training and Travel
Date: 28/Nov/2012
