I know we’re still in Canada but we’re also in Northern Ireland!
After building the business, I never thought I’d ever be restarting it in another country but here we are!

Happy to say we’re getting known around these parts and have been recognised for having fantastic products and services that make a difference so we’d love your help to get on the map. Your vote for us would be so greatly appreciated 😘

Heyyyy! Finnessiam Health has been nominated for a Pet award and we’d love your support to give us a vote!

Voting is open NOW!

Starting the business again after 16 years is ruff, so your support to help us get seen and known a bit more would be greatly appreciated!

Go to http://www.thelocalpetawards.com/vote and show us some love ❤️ We’re under the pet wellbeing category.

Many thanks in advance!

Titer testing could save your pets life!

Or prevent vaccine injury (chronic illness, immune system dysregulation, IBD, allergies, etc)!

I am continually amazed when I have people tell me that their vets try to tell them that titer testing is pointless, doesn't work, and is a waste of time (these vets are WRONG WRONG WRONG!).

I believe that titer testing before any re-vaccination should be the gold standard of pet health care when it comes to disease protection.

There is a stack of evidence that shows without doubt that C3 vaccines for dogs, and F3 vaccines for cats, give a LONG LASTING immunity of at least 5-7 years, and sometimes a lot longer than that.

I have had animals who have been titer tested, and shown strong immunity at 5, 7, even 9 or more years after vaccination.

One problem is that titer testing can be very expensive. This usually because the vets send the tests out to an external lab, and then add their markup on top of the cost.

BUT - you can ask your vets to get the Vaccicheck In-House Titer Test kits in (these are the ones that I use) - these kits are qualitative and quantitative tests.

Accurate. Dependable.

And AFFORDABLE.

But you ave to ask your vets to get them in - and don;t take 'no' for an answer.

The more people who pressure vets to make titer test affordable, and the first choice for ALL animals before revaccination, the sooner the veterinary industry will have to pull up their socks, get with the scientific evidence, and STOP GIVING PETS unnecessary re-vaccinations that may cause serious harm.

What's your experience been with asking for titer tests from your vet?

Love to hear from you in the comments!

HURRY!
Last few days of the birthday sale.

WHAT?

Yup another year has gone by like a flash and it's our birthday AGAIN! 15 years our little Dogs of Pride has been going and we're sharing the love (as we always do) and this year with 15% off, all through May, use code "15BDAY" for any orders on products only over $100.

Thanks for the support, both old and lots of new since our move back home to NI. We're still in Canada too though for all our retailers and clients there who still love the Smart Oil as much as when I created it 7 years ago... Oh my dog, where has time gone?

Remembering the three originals; FINN, jESSe and willIAM who helped create our own Finnessiam line that is being loved worldwide

Ignoring this won't make it go away. Bring more awareness to this and although the govt doesn't even care about it's people, maybe, just maybe if people started making a bigger noise about this, they can change this.
If you turn a blind eye to this and think it's not your problem, you are part of it. These beautiful animals do not deserve this!
The most sentient beings on this planet should not be treated this way. Trudeau passed a bill to stop this but no-one is enforcing it - making too much money off this abuse... probably. Mark Carney

Japan Flight Barely Squeaks Under the 28- Hour Limit

On March 3, 2025 another Korean Air flight left the Edmonton airport with 99 young horses on board, destined for the Kitakyushu airport in Japan. The horses were Belgian crosses born in 2022 with an average weight of 827.6 kg (1825 lbs). Six trucks were used to transport them to the airport and once there, 3 horses were loaded in each crate.

During the aircraft loading process, one crate was returned to the holding building due to 2 horses sitting while in the crate. With encouragement, the horses were reportedly able to stand. No abnormalities were reported and they were standing when the crate was loaded back on the aircraft.

The flight included a stop in Anchorage before continuing to it's destination in Japan. One horse was found down in a crate after take-off.

The Humane Transportation of Animals records states the horses on this flight were without these basic necessities for 27.92 hours (27 hours and 55 minutes), barely under the 28 hours allowed under Canadian regulations.

Sick - this keeps going on even though the bills were through, the promises were made - this is how Canada govt continues to disgust by allowing this to continue. Doesn't surprise me - if they don't care about the people, then they sure as h*** don't care about these animals - all about the money.
Not saying animal welfare is any better in Ireland, sadly it isn't. Animal abusers abound and laugh all the way out of court for mere slaps on the wrists, legally registered puppy farms are massive, feral horses and horses dying on the streets.
Humanity needs a reboot... and a good boot up the a # #!
Yep - been a while since a Wendie rant... you're welcome
