Prize Package #4 – 51 Puppy Tricks: Step-by-Step Activities to Engage, Challenge, and Bond with Your Puppy
* PRIZE CONTENTS – 1 Paperback book (176 pages)
Sponsor: Quarry Books and Quayside Publishing Group
About This Book: a new how-to book providing all the tools a puppy owner needs to teach behaviors and tricks to a puppy. Most other puppy training books focus on curbing bad behavior and though some provide tips on training, it is usually only the most basic tricks. In 51 Puppy Tricks, world-acclaimed acrobatic stunt-dog trainer Kyra Sundance presents a program that is geared for training the less mature dog. Understanding that young puppies are not yet well-tuned to humans, and respond better to a clicker than to a voice, Kyra uses a technique called “shaping” which breaks a behavior into very small steps for easier learning. And, of course, puppies receive extra gentle care, focusing on instilling a love of learning and a communication pathway rather than accomplishing the goal behavior. Visually stunning photographs and step-by-step instructions give puppy owners a positive way to engage, challenge and bond with a young dog.
About the Author

The pair has performed on The Tonight Show and Ellen. She is the best-selling author of 2 other titles for Quarry Books, The Dog Tricks and Training Workbook, and 101 Dog Tricks.

Prize Package #5 – The Complete Guide to Holistic Cat Care
* PRIZE CONTENTS – 1 Paperback book (192 pages)
Sponsor: Quarry Books and Quayside Publishing Group
About This Book:
Celeste Yarnall’s time-tested natural and holistic expertise gives cat owners insight into natural alternatives in food, medication, alternative therapies, and healing practices, improving the lives of feline friends and well as their caregivers. With Dr. Jean Hofve, the esteemed holistic veterinarian, she explores nutrition as preventative medicine, vitamin and mineral supplements, herbal remedies, homeopathic treatments, and groundbreaking anti-aging modalities never before published in a pet care guide. The Complete Guide to Holistic Cat Care also includes a complete bibliography and a list of suppliers of holistic remedies and services. As with all other pet health guides, it is a comprehensive resource intended to complement veterinary care, not replace it.
About the Author
Celeste Yarnall’s first book, Cat Care Naturally, was published in 1995. Celeste is also the author of Natural Dog Care. Between 1993 and 2009, Celeste and her breeding partners have bred and raised 11 generations of Tonkinese championship show cats on the basic holistic principals outlined in her books, an unprecedented achievement. A lifetime interest in nutritional supplementation inspired Celeste to create a line of all-natural whole food supplements with holistic veterinarian, Dr. Russell Swift. In 2000, Celeste and long time friend, Imelda Lopez-Casper, formed a partnership, Celestial Pets, in order to market these products.
Dr. Jean Hofve earned her Doctor of Veterinary Medicine at Colorado State University in Fort Collins, CO. Dr. Jean practiced holistic and conventional medicine in Denver, Colorado, and was the Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of the American Holistic Veterinary Medical Association from 2004–2007. She has extensive training in homeopathy and homotoxicology, and in 1995 founded Spirit Essences, then and still the only veterinarian-formulated line of flower essences for animals. Dr. Jean lives in Denver, Colorado.

Sponsor: Now There’s Hope
About: Escondido, Calif. – A child of the foster care system in the 1980s, Hope Baca is one of its success stories, having established a high-end nail and body care spa in North San Diego County. But her two passions–one for the plight of todays foster kids and the other the importance of good body and self care on self-esteem–have inspired Baca to do more. After four years of research and development, Baca has launched Now Theres Hope body care products for English customers and Ahora Es Esparanza for Spanish-speaking customers.
5% percent of company profits from Now Theres Hope will fund Foster Children programs across the Greater San Diego County, and eventually the vision is to help programs across the United States. Now Theres Hope will provide foster kids with products of their own in a travel kit that that also contains gift cards for books and other products that encourage them to apply themselves and view their future with confidence.
“In foster care, everything is taken away from you. You have nothing you can call your own,” recalls Baca, now an adult woman with two grown children of her own. “I want to give these kids something they can call their own and that enhances their self-worth and self-reliance.”
Also, a percentage of proceeds from dog products will be donated to aid and benefit foster dogs and HOPE.
