PACMA – friends in Spain, please vote for this man on 9th June – this is why
From Pacma Animalista‘Don’t you think it’s unfair to have to pay 21% VAT for a service that is of primary necessity, such as the health of your animals? U.S. too. Going to the vet cannot be a luxury, and therefore, this week we have presented a series of fiscal measures to the Government that we think you will like.
Reduction of veterinary VAT from the current 21% to 4%: Our proposal seeks to reduce this tax to the super-reduced rate of 4%, or eliminate it completely, to make veterinary services more accessible.
10% deduction in the income tax return: We propose that families can deduct up to 10% of veterinary expenses in their income tax return, with a maximum saving of €500 per year.
What do we get with this?

UK Vet Fees – they are a rip off – people cannot afford them!
The Competition & Markets Authority are looking into vet fees. About time too! They are ab absolute rip off because vet clinics have been taken over by big businesses like hedge funds, pension funds, pet insurance companies. I’ve discussed this recently on my blog but now the news is out there about the CMA action.
Read about it on this weblink. If you scroll to the end of the article, you can HAVE YOUR SAY. Please do comment as it all adds fuel to the fire of the diabolical vet fees and the companies which own them.
In conversation recently with a veterinary nurse, she said that pet owners now are not taking their pet to the vet when it first falls ill but trying to medicate themselves. Often this results in the pet becoming more ill, so that when the vet finally is consulted, sometimes the illness is too advanced and the pet is euthanaised! And if the owner wishes for the pet’s ashes, this charge is also proving prohibitive.
The result of this –

Pheromone – why it is good for a calmer for dogs
A question was raised on social media recently by a lady adopting a rescue podenco, which will have spent 3 days travelling to her in the UK. She was concerned about the podenco being stressed out and asked for advice on any product to help calm the dog. This was my comment in answer.
Pheromone is a natural ‘product’of a female body when it gives birth as it calms the newborn and takes away the stress of birthing. This is why it is so important for a newborn animal to suckle soon after birth. I occasionally use a product with pheromone called Beaphar CaniComfort for my blind podenco when travelling distances, as he sometimes gets upset by the very loud noise of car tyres on rough tarmacadum – because of course he can’t see it. Not all products which claim to calm an animal contain Pheromone – so you need to check the ingredents of a product and discount it if it does not have Pheromone.
Read about Pheromone on this weblink. It calms the animal without tranquilisng it.

Protectora Scooby – galga Mistral hoping for a forever home
From Protectora Scooby.‘This beautiful girl who is supposed to be adopted soon will probably spend the rest of her life in a kennel in our shelter because she is positive for leishmaniosis and people are more afraid of this Mediterranean disease than of Putin!
With the right treatment, they can live well for many years. It’s not fair that dogs with leish don’t have the chance at a normal life and the love they deserve more than any other dog.
If you can to give this galga, her name is Mistral, a dignified life and make her very happy so she would thank you with all her love and heart writes to: adopciones@scoobymedina.org
An adopter with experience of taking on a dog with leishmania has this to say.
