The buildings went down, the search started. Images of firefighters, police, military, New Yorkers and tourists all helping out, looking and searching. As a viewer watching this unravel on TV, I still couldn’t fully comprehend or maybe believe what I was watching. But I noticed dogs, and more dogs, police and fire dogs and search and rescue dogs.
I clearly remember thinking, are they trained for this? As a Country, most of us hadn’t experienced anything like this. Our Military, and the dogs of the Military had been trained for combat, served in Desert Storm and in other military conflicts, but this was a different type of event. FEMA was utilizing dogs but their team consisted of less than twenty trained K-9’s. As an animal professional, I became even more intrigued how the dogs would be utilized at Ground Zero.
These dogs were going to have to be able to sniff out humans, fire, bombs, explosives and even unknown foreign objects. At that point, nobody really knew all the details of what occurred around this event. Nobody really knew what to expect. A handler really had to trust his dog and let the dog do what he was trained to do. The handler had to have a keen eye and respond to every signal his dog was going to give him. I saw a clip on the news about an organization called National Disaster Search Dog Foundation. They were one of the organizations that deployed to the site. I immediately wanted to find out more about them and my research began. How these dogs were trained, what were they capable of doing, will they be able to handle an event of this size. In fact, my passion for working dogs began from the events of 9/11. I was glued to my TV and flipping from station to station to watch each and every part of this rescue and in every scene I saw police and fire departments from all across the country showing up with their dogs.
The intreget part these dogs played in the search from both a rescue and a recovery perspective is unbelievable. The towers had already tumbled, people were trapped and our first line responders were unable to find or to get to them. Emergency rescues were relying on the noses of their dogs. These dogs not only sniffed to their needed location but the dogs were the ones that crawled into the debris, the dogs were the ones that stepped on the smoldering ground and the dogs were the ones that were digging into the rubble. For most of the people saved from underneath the building, their first contact with life was with the dog that found them. The events of 9/11 really brought well deserved attention to the power of K- 9 search and rescue. Since 9/11 more and more towns, cities, States and government agencies have added additional K-9’s with several different search specialties to their forces.
In respect to the Anniversary of 9/11 please take a moment and say a little pray to the K-9’s that took part in the tragedies of that day. Some of those dogs lost their lives at that site, some were burned and several became ill with various diseases including lung cancer from that event. Ten years later, most of these K-9 Heroes have passed away. They are not to be forgotten. Think positive thoughts in regards to all the human lives that were saved or to the families that were able to have the recovery of a lost one , all with great appreciation and a special thank you to “Man’s Best Friend“

North Andover Let’s Take a BITE Out of Crime!
Tonight was our final National Night Out planning meeting with my fellow Neighborhood Block Captains and the NAPD. We were putting the finishing touches on our event next week and then we were discussing some of the local activity taking place in North Andover.
In the past couple of weeks North Andover has seen an increase in break ins and illegal activity. Just today there was a forced entrance at Boston Hill. Yesterday there was one on Barker St. Two weeks ago a couple over near The Common.
As a Pet Care business and a CrimeWatch Block Captain this is something that I don’t take lightly. My first concern is always your animal’s health and safety, my second concern is your home.
When you hire a pet care service please remember not only are these people coming to take care of your animal, they are also entering your house. You are trusting these people with your security codes, a copy of your keys and basically allowing them to enter into your daily life.
Before you hire a service like this there are a couple of things you may want to consider first:
1. Is the company insured & bonded - which means does the company have insurance to protect your precious pet and will it cover any accidents or injuries that may occur. Bonded- this is a protection stating this business or its employees will not steal from you. Many say,” Well I don’t have employees I don’t need to be bonded.” My personal thought is: If you don’t have anything to hide, you will be bonded even as a sole proprietor. You will provide that peace of mind to your clients.
2. Are they really insured & bonded? Ask to see their insurance card. Insurance is insurance and insurance fraud is insurance fraud. Even in pet care.
Unfortunately, many may say they are and really are not! They just want to stay competitive with the competition; however they don’t want to pay for the insurance.
3. Ask the pet care business how they will be labeling your key and how they will protect your key. What if the pet care service lost your keys? What if it had your address on it? These are very important questions to ask.
4. Who has your keys? Some businesses have more than one employee or they have multiple pet care providers entering your home on any given time. Do you know which person(s) is entering and how those multiple keys are managed? What if an employee is terminated? How does the business retrieve those keys?
5. Does the business advertise their service on their automobile? Personally, you will never see my business name on my car. In the 10 years I have been caring for animals in this town I have never, nor will I have my company name painted on my car or a car magnet. WHY? Why, would I advertise that you are not home!
Most break ins happen during the day. Prior to a break in chances are the burglar has already scooped out your neighborhood. He will know what time you leave and what time you will return. He will know what time your neighbor picks up her kids from school and he will know what time your pet care services is scheduled to stop in to your home. How does he know that? Well that magnet advertising the pet care business is a dead giveaway. Therefore; why would I as a professional business indirectly give your schedule or vacation plans to an intruder? Honestly, why would I put my own personal safety at risk too? I am the one entering the home. I am the one that may walk into someone that is already inside or I may be the one to walk into a home that was already ransacked before I got there. Safety and protection comes at many levels and should be a standard business practice from your pet care service.
How can you protect your home:
1. Lock your doors – all your doors- even the one in the back of the house you think nobody even knows is there. Don’t forget to lock that bulk head too.
2. Alarm systems- some may choose to have an alarm system installed. They work !
3. If you don’t want to go to the extent of an alarm- have your key pad on your garage door link in to your cell phone. You will be alerted when someone is opening and closing your garage doors. (you always know if your dog walker is really walking your dog too! )
4. When traveling rotate a light – I have some clients that have me put their shades down at night and put them back up in the morning. Just like you would do if you were home. Keep that routine as consistent as possible.
5. Have your pet care service bring in your mail and any packages that you may have being delivered. Believe me, the way everyone shops on line, thieves love to grab packages off porches and stairs and run. Living in an apartment complex, be weary of having packages left in your lobby.
6. The Nanny web cam…no, it’s not just for watching your infant and your babysitter, this tiny device is a wonderful way to see what may be going on in your house while you are not home. Some of my clients actually set these filming out of the window to see the perimeter of the house. Others may focus on one specific room, while all of you will be able to keep an eye on what your pet may be doing all day when you are away.
7. Common sense - this is the obvious one, have your pet care provider keep a routine as similar to yours as possible. Hide your valuables and don’t leave anything just out in the open. Put everything away before you leave.
As for your pets…remember, animals are intuitive by nature. Dog or cat it doesn’t matter. They want to protect you, they want to protect your home, and they know good from evil. They understand energy at a level far beyond most humans can. Even that super friendly pet that sleeps all day while you are away and plays all night when you are home. Guess what? When put into this situation… he won’t pretend he will DEFEND !!

Time for Work ~ Dog
Wiggles & Jiggles Pet Care
Sgt Gray, his family and Kyzer courtesy photo D.Shultz
Last week was quite a week for one of our local K-9 dogs. As we all know, NAPD Kyzer won the 2011 National Working Dog Hero award. But it leads to the question, what is a Working dog? How is that different that a family pet? The children at the award ceremony asked some amazing questions that I thought I would share today.
Q: What is a Working Dog?
A: Well, first of all a Working Dog is not a family pet. A Working Dog is an animal that performs a task or an assignment for his owner or handler. For example, Kyzer is a Working Dog, although he goes home at night with Sgt Gray, he is property of the North Andover Police dept. He is an employee whose task is to find narcotics or to help with search and rescue.
Q: How many hours a week does a Working Dog work?
A: A Working Dog always works. His job is twenty four hours a day, seven days a week, and three hundred and sixty five days a week.
Q: Does a Working Dog go to school to learn how to do his job?
A: He sure does, it all depends what type of skill he will become specialized but he will go to a training school, work with a mentor and have to pass a series of tests too!
Q: What type of Working Dogs are there?
A: There are several different types of Working Dogs. It all depends on what you may need. There are police, fire and military dogs, Seeing Eye dogs to help the blind, Hearing dogs to help the hearing impaired and dogs that are trained to help with everyday tasks. There are even dogs that are being used by the medical world to help “sniff” cancerous cells and other potential diseases in humans. Basically, any task a human may need assistance with a dog can be trained to do.
Q: Does a Working Dog retire?
A: Yes, in time a Working Dog does retire. When the dog has reached a certain age or is unable to perform his task, he will be replaced by a new dog.
Q: Then what happens to the dog?
A: The Working dog becomes a Family Pet. That’s right, he will go and live with his handler or another loving home and gets to hang out, play or even sleep all day. Not a bad gig for a job well done!
North Andover Rocks ! ~ National Night Out 2011
Seriously.. Could National Night Out have been any more fun? Not even the rain (a brief 10 min down pour) could dampen the spirit of North Andover.
A carnival, a fair, and a circus all in one. Infants, teens, young adults and seniors too. Everyone was enjoying this event.
People dancing to Zumba, kids riding Police ATV’s and climbing Fire truck ladders. Not to mention, eating chicken to pizza and ice cream and treats. Kyzer winning his National K-9 Hero award. ( Yes I’m bragging about the NAPD K-9 unit again, I know I know…but it’s MY blog ! )
I sat back and watched the residents. The event was to start at 6:00PM. People started entering the field at 5:30 and by 6:30 the parking lot was filled. Balloons in hand, and bags filled with goodies.
Merchants, wow..what a turn out there. I believe at last count we had registered almost 60 businesses from North Andover to participate in our day.
Yes, but let’s remember this was a safety event. As a CrimeWatch Block Captain reality hit when the Massachusetts Missing & Exploited Children board displayed 43 children missing from our State as recently as this past June or from the winners of the Take 25 poster contest that had their artwork on display.
Crime is crime. It is ugly, it is hurtful, and it will be life changing. Fortunately, police departments that encourage and support Neighborhood CrimeWatch programs are really taking the initiative to improve and protect their communities. Most importantly, police departments that have Neighborhood CrimeWatch programs are saying to their community that they really do want to get to know their residents. They want that relationship between town folk and law enforcement.
And by the turn out tonight, goal accomplished!

Gearing Up for a Night Out - North Andover MA
It's that time of year again. North Andover will participate in the 28th Annual National Night Out on Aug. 2 from 6 to 8 p.m. at Hayes Stadium behind North Andover Middle School.
National Night Out was started in 1984 to promote crime prevention. It aims at increasing crime awareness, generating support for local crime prevention and neighborhood watch programs, strengthening the relationship between police and the community and showing criminals that their community is united against crime.
Last year, more than 15,000 communities -- more than 37 million people -- participated in the event nationwide.
In North Andover,the event is organized by the North Andover Police Department along with local Neighborhood Crime Watch members. There will be public safety vehicles on display, games and crafts for the kids, face painting, food and beverages, music and more.
There will also be many organizations and merchants with booths at the event. But the event is free, and no sales or sign-ups are allowed. There will be plenty of coupons and samples, though, and the event has served as a venue in which local businesses can promote their products.
About 2,500 people are expected to attend National Night Out in North Andover.

NAPD Kyzer wins National Award - Pet Sitter International - NA Patch
NAPD Dog Wins National Honor
Resident Tracey Zysk nominated Kyzer for the recognition.
Pet Sitters International, creators of Take Your Dog to Work Day, recently announced the 2011 winners of its new Working Class K-9 Hero Contest -- meant to honor dogs who work every day to improve the lives of others -- and the North Andover Police Department's Kyzer is among them.
Kyzer is an 8-year-old narcotics K-9 for the North Andover Police Department. He was nominated for the award by North Andover resident and professional pet sitter Tracey Zysk of Wiggles & Jiggles Pet Care.
"When I saw that Pet Sitter International was looking for nationwide Working Class K-9 Hero nominations, I knew immediately I was going to nominate Kyzer," Zysk said. "As a police dog Kyzer is trained to do specific task. He is not a family pet, he is a sworn in officer of the law."
Kyzer is credited with saving police officers' lives in 2007, when he accompanied his handler, Sgt. Charles Gray, to a shooting at a local business. Gray released the leash, and Kyzer bit the shooter's arm and knocked the gun away.
"Fortunately Kyzer was 100 percent on and did exactly what he was trained to do," Zysk said. "At that moment, although he did “his job”, doing his job accurately saved the community of North Andover from a heartbreaking tragedy."
Kyzer became a role model in the K-9 community and has been called to other communities to assist with search-and-rescues.
Recently, Kyzer's stomach flipped and he had to have stomach staple surgery.
"Most dogs don’t live through that, but Kyzer had surgery and a remarkably speedy recovery," Zysk said. "Not to mention he returned to work with little time out of service. I’m around hundreds of dogs all the time, both family pet and working dogs, and I can honestly say I have never in my career seen a dog as focused, determined and disciplined as Kyzer. He is one of a kind, and North Andover is very privileged to have him as our narcotics and tracking K-9 dog."
So North Andover can boast another hero in town, this one with four legs. Kyzer will have an award ceremony at 5:45 p.m. Tuesday, just before the National Night Out, at North Andover Middle School

The Events of an Overheated Dog
Yesterday was quite an eventful day. As I was driving down Main Street going to one of my client’s houses, I saw another one of my clients running frantically up Main. She had a child with her and a leash in hand. Right at that moment I knew this wasn’t going to be good.
My client saw me and immediately yelled over for help. I jumped out of my car to find out what was going on. Her dog had gotten loose and took off on her when she was at the park. She was running home to get her car and to have someone watch her nephew so she could continue her search.
At that point I drove down to the park to look for Roxy. I’m driving thinking, Roxy? Take off? That is not like Roxy. Roxy is one of my most disciplined dogs; she has been fully trained, listens to all her commands and never just takes off. This is just not her character.
Luckily, having known this dog since she was a puppy I wasn’t too concerned that she ran too far, I was more concerned about her health. At 9:45AM it was extremely hot, already 90. We had just had a quick shower and it was getting very muggy. I also know that the owner and this dog are very athletic and like to do fast paced, strong walks. I know their routine and it is a physical one.
Fortunately, after driving around a couple of streets I found her! She was exhausted, shaking and panting heavily. I pulled my car over for her to get in my backseat, only to notice she couldn’t get up and her eyes were glossy. I knew right there Ms. Roxy was starting to stroke.
Once I got her in my car I drove her home. Roxy rolled out of the back of my car and collapsed onto the pavement. I had the owner immediately get water, ice cubes and a cold face cloth. As she was doing that I began some of my animal massage strokes that help with cooling the system. I took some of the ice cubes and massaged them into Roxy’s pressure points and let her drink a bowl of water. It took a couple of minutes, which to the owner and I seemed like a life time but eventually Roxy was able to stand. At that point Roxy was moved inside the home to continue to cool down next to the air conditioner.
Roxy is fine…Roxy was very very lucky.
Please remember that an animal’s average body temperature is 101. Once the temperature rises about 105 the animal can and probably will begin to stroke. It happens quickly and can lead to a heart attack, stroke, coma or even death. Animals by nature use panting as a way to cool their systems but sometimes, their bodies just can not endure the heat and humidity. On extremely hot days please limit your pets exercise and keep a few extra bowls of water available to them.
A rule of thumb..If you’re hot, your pet is hotter.
As always PLEASE KEEP YOUR PETS HYDRATED!!
