Quit for your pets

Are you dog tired of kicking your smoking habit? Why not adopt a dog, a cat or any pet to help you quit your nicotine addiction? According to a recent study, owning a pet can encourage smokers to kick the habit to spare their furry companions from the harmful effects of second-hand smoke.

My friend and responsible pet ownership advocate, Shaun Olmstead, says that this is very good news as it will diminish the number of pets that will be victims of second hand smoke. Just like in humans, second hand smoke can raise a pet’s risk of lung cancer and other forms of cancer, allergies, eye and skin diseases and respiratory problems.

If you love yourself, your family and your pets, stop smoking now!
