Freedom From Hunger and Thirst * By ready access to fresh water and diet to maintain health and vigor. 2. Freedom From Discomfort * By providing an appropriate environment including shelter and a comfortable resting area. 3. Freedom From Pain, Injury, or Disease * By prevention or rapid diagnosis and treatment. 4. Freedom To Express Normal Behavior * By providing sufficient space, proper facilities and company of the animal’s own kind. 5. Freedom From Fear and Distress * By ensuring conditions and treatment which avoid mental suffering Dr. Cooney added a Sixth Freedom: Freedom To Die A Good Death Dr. Cooney credits the sixth freedom to Jessica Pierce and Her Book, "The Last Walk: Reflections on Our Pets at the End of Their Lives" Thank you Dr. Kathy Cooney and Co-Host Lorrie Shaw!

Mike Murray, Director of Community Outreach for Pet Food Express and the person in charge of the Bay Area Pet Fair, is our talented guest today. The Bay Area Pet Fair is the largest animal rescue event of its kind on the West Coast of the United States, and very likely the whole country (and possibly the entire solar system?). We discuss last year’s extremely successful event and what to look forward to this year. Saturday and Sunday, September 15 and 16, 2018. Alameda County Fairgrounds, Pleasanton, California. 10:00am to 5:00pm. Free admission and parking. Last year, there were over 140,000 animal lovers in two days looking for a wonderful new companion. Around 1,500 adoptions! Great live music, delicious food, Splash Dogs, Police K-9 demos, even Jackson Galaxy from My Cat From Hell! Dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, rodents, and you may even spot a miniature horse rescue.
