1. Tales from the Trips (Latest News)
===============================================
Belated greetings to all of you and I hope 2009 is off to a great start.
February brought a couple of very large snow storms to the area dumping two feet of snow at a time.
I enjoy the snow because I love to tromp outdoors to see the animal tracks. Here the wildlife can be a bit elusive but the tracks after a fresh snow tell a great story of who has been passing by.
March is usually the month we get the heaviest snow fall but it has been unseasonable warm and the last storm brought in rain so it will be interesting to see what happens.
Those of you who have been subscribers for a while know that I’ve been facing some health challenges for a while that have slowed me down.
As a result I was not able to get out the February newsletter and this issue combines the February and March newsletters.
I am happy to say that it looks like the doctors will have a diagnosis this month as to what is actually the problem–and I hope to be feeling better soon.
Having an answer will be a relief—at least then we can address it and it would be nice to be able to tour again and bump up my schedule.
Anyway, things have been quiet because I have not been up to speed and have been only booking direct referral clients.
Remember my telling you about the filming last year? My appearances in the Animal Planet series, “Weird, True & Freaky” has really been creating quite the buzz because they are currently airing.
It seems that every place I go someone stops me to say that they have seen me on the television.
I’ve done a lot of television throughout my career but it is always nice to see people excited about it.
Speaking of media…we’ve been upgrading my media site with my most recent photos and information. This has been a huge task and one that began last July!
I’ve also been pondering ArkAnimals.com and I think you are going to be excited about the changes you will see.
Happy Tails to Your & Yours,
Diana L Guerrero

2. Discussion for the Month: Getting Wild at ArkAnimals.Com
===============================================
In January I asked for feedback from you as to what you would like to see. As I pondered how ArkAnimals.Com has changed over the years, I decided it is time to get back to my roots.
My background is for wild and domestic animal training and so I am going to blend the two topics more regularly.
If you read the commentary about Travis the Chimp you have already seen how I have begun to make that shift.
In addition to my commentary about the chimpanzee attack, I took a look at how the same problems exist between exotic animal pet owners (which is not something I support) and companion animal owners.
Then I delved a little deeper into the ethics of wild animal ownership as shared by some other professional animal people.
You’ll find that I’ll be doing more of this type of comparison as I prepare to launch the http://www/PetParentingSchool.Com later this year.
I’ll continue to visit topics related to pets and new products for animals but you’ll also see more regular features that include: Training Talk, Animal Career Chat,
Furry Fun, and a few more.
Eventually I will lock these down into a regular editorial schedule so if you have a specific interest in only one topic you will know when to drop by for the latest coverage.
In the meantime, you can always catch up through the monthly article round up featured here in the newsletter.
Don’t forget, if you have a name suggestion for any new features—drop me a line to let me know—you could win a surprise gift if I use it!
