Great 4-H Volunteer Moments

Margaret — Thu, 05 Mar 2009 23:02:33 +0000

Maria Casgioli of the 4-H Mall and Rosemarie Woods of Lodi, California take a moment to reminisce during last week’s WRLF Conference in Denver, Colorado. Rosemarie has been a 4-H Volunteer for 49 years and was a former California State 4-H Leader. The WRLF included lots of great moments for volunteers to come together to celebrate 4-H and volunteerism. Best In Show was proud to exhibit and share information about our fundraising program. The WRLF featured many wonderful presentations and workshops for all in attendance. We particularly enjoyed the “Cowboy Poet” during the Friday luncheon. His talent and sense of humor added to the positive energy at the event. Next year, the WRLF will be held in beautiful Alburquerque, New Mexico. Congratulations to the Colorado team for an outstanding conference!

Peanut Butter & Honey Flavor Dog Treats NOT Part of Peanut Butter Recall

Tim — Wed, 21 Jan 2009 19:39:40 +0000

Our Peanut Butter Honey Flavor Dog Treats are a delicious snack for dogs and one of our most popular products. Recent news accounts of salmonella tainted peanut butter has understandably raised questions about the safety of every product that includes peanut butter, including our treats. Although there is a potential risk for canines, salmonella is rare in dogs. The raw peanut butter is the main risk. Salmonella is killed at 150 degrees Fahrenheit. We bake our treats at 185 degrees Fahrenheit. In addition, our supplier is an American company and is not included among the suppliers of this recent salmonella outbreak. We are confident, therefore, that our Peanut Butter Honey Flavor Dog Treats are both safe for our customers’ dog and safe for individuals to handle.
