Abstract: A device or collar having a matrix into which an interomone is incorporated in an amount from between about 0.001% and about 5% by weight of the device is described for the modification of undesirable or harmful stress-related behaviors or other behaviors of physiology in a variety of vertebrate species over an extended period of time, as well as methods of using the device to modify behaviors of a variety of vertebrate species over an extended period of time.

Abstract: A spot-on pesticide composition for animals, specifically mammals, including dogs and cats, which composition comprises a combination of active components, including fipronil and a pyrethroid, and optionally an insect growth regulator, in doses and proportions which are parasiticidally effective against a variety of insects and pests, and in a formulation which is convenient for local application to the animal's skin, preferably localized over a small surface area.

Abstract: Methods for reducing the incidence of flea allergy dermatitis (FAD) in a companion animal are disclosed, the methods directed to inhibiting blood feeding by ectoparasites on a companion animal. The methods of the present invention involve administering a pesticide composition comprising cyphenothrin to a companion animal, specifically dogs and cats, in doses and proportions which are parasiticidally effective against a variety of ectoparasites, and in formulations which are convenient for topical application to the animal's skin, preferably localized over a small surface area. Such methods are useful in preventing and/or reducing the incidence of flea allergy dermatitis.

Abstract: Novel plant essential oil-based antimicrobial filming compositions that are useful in protecting, repairing and strengthening the natural slime coat found on fish are disclosed, which compositions are comprised of a mixture of plant essential oils having antimicrobial properties, filming agents, and surfactants.

Abstract: Pheromone compositions based on a combination of squalene, linoleic acid and 1-docosanol are described. The compositions are useful for behavior modification in mammals that exhibit undesirable or harmful stress-related behaviors.

Abstract: A spot-on pesticide composition for animals, specifically mammals, namely dogs, which composition comprises a combination of a pyrethroid and a macrocyclic lactone selected from avermectin, ivermectin, selamectin, moxidectin, milbemycin and any combination thereof, and optionally fipronil and/or an insect growth regulator, in doses and proportions which are parasiticidally effective against a variety of insects and pests, and in a formulation which is convenient for local application to the animal's skin, preferably localized over a small surface area.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a liquid pest control system that includes a synthetic pyrethroid as a pest control active ingredient and an agent selected from the group consisting of purified diethylene glycol monoethyl ether, tocopherol nicotinate and tocopherol succinate, and combinations thereof, to reduce or eliminate paresthesia of the synthetic pyrethroid. The system releases the synthetic pyrethroid efficiently and uniformly. The pest control system is less irritating to the animal's skin as compared to prior art systems, particularly to small breeds of dogs. The system is useful for making liquid spot-on treatments, sprays and the like.

Abstract: A ball thrower is described. The ball thrower includes a throwing end and a reserve end. The throwing end provides for a ball to be held and released from the ball thrower during a throwing motion. The reserve end provides a place or a compartment to hold the ball securely when the ball thrower is not in use. Further, a first and a second ball may be maintained at the throwing end and at the reserve end, respectively.

Abstract: A composition comprising an interomone is described for the modification of undesirable or harmful stress-related behaviors or other behaviors or physiology in a variety of vertebrate species, as well as methods of using the compositions in vertebrates from a species different than the species in which the interomone is a naturally occurring pheromone.
