The wing, which was designed by Merriam Architects of Rockland and is being built by E.W. Littlefield & Sons of Hartland, is set to be completed by August 15 and will be fully-functional for the start of the 2015-2016 academic year. The Mary Kammerer Fittig Humanities Wing will add two stateof-the-art classrooms while connecting Foxcroft Academy’s main academic building to its detached Industrial and Fine Arts building, creating an interconnected academic complex and tightening campus security significantly. The new classrooms will be designed as 21stcentury learning spaces, with an emphasis on student-centered learning, teacher collaboration, and technology integration. Mary Kammerer Fittig, a retired educator who spent 29 years as an elementary school teacher in the inner city of New York, jump-started the wing’s capital campaign with a $200,000 naming gift earlier this year. Those interested in learning about other naming opportunities for this project may contact Foxcroft Academy Assistant Head of School for External Affairs Chris McGary at 564-8351 or [email protected].

The bill, LD 740 “An Act To Sustain Maine’s Primary Care Professional Workforce,” had a public hearing this week before the Legislature’s Taxation Committee. Last year, the Legislature passed a bill that provides income tax credits to primary care physicians who practice in areas where there is a shortage of doctors or patients need to travel long distances for appointments. Under the current law, doctors in rural areas receive tax credits of $6,000 for the first year of eligibility, increasing yearly to $18,000 the fifth year. After that, the income tax credit ends. LD 740 extends those tax breaks from new doctors to those who are already practicing in rural areas. “This has been a terrific program that gives incentives to doctors 1R'XFWZRUN +LJK6((55DWLQJV ,QGLYLGXDO=RQLQJ OPEN HOUSE 5HEDWHVIURP0DQ\ 8WLOLW\&RPSDQLHV (DV\,QVWDOODWLRQ Saturday, May 2 - 9 to 5 Sunday, May 3 - 10 to 4 Up to $2000 of FREE Options Maple Leaf Homes Manorwood Homes Excel Homes • Land/Home Packages • On-Lot Financing • Land-in Lieu Downpayment • Trade-ins Welcome Continued on Page 17 New Shipment of 2015 Boats has arrived!

The problem is that doesn’t account for how much of the protein is digestible. Generally, higher-quality foods are more digestible.” And just as having too few nutrients could be harmful for a growing kitten or puppy, having too much of some nutrients can be detrimental to older pets with poor liver or kidney function. Too avoid high levels of protein, calcium, and phosphorus, a prescription food for senior pets may be best. Vaccinations are key to pet health, as well. Dogs and cats need rabies and distemper vaccinations. Dog owners should also consider a shot to guard against leptospirosis, a bacteria that dogs can come in contact with in water or via wild animals (such as chasing mice or rats), that can cause liver and kidney damage -- and can be transmitted to humans. “It’s hard to diagnose,” said Larkin. “Unless the dog is never outside, I think the dog should have this vaccine.” Other vaccines that dog owners may opt to have administered include kennel cough, which, “we recommend for dogs that will be around other dogs outside the home, in doggie daycare, during puppy training, at the groomer, or even at the dog park,” Larkin said. Another is for canine flu, especially for pets traveling outside of Maine. For dogs that spend a great deal of time outdoors, especially in wooded areas, a vaccination against Lyme disease is also recommended. “It’s important to remember that ticks can carry other diseases, as well, so folks should use a good tick control product,” said Larkin. Another vaccination for cat owners to consider if their pets go outdoors is feline leukemia. “What we are doing now for feline leukemia is vaccinating all kittens, just because people don’t always know if it will go outdoors or escape and cats less than a year of age are more susceptible,” Larkin explained. “If the cat is over a year old and does not go outdoors, I don’t think they need it.” Parasite control is also impor- tant. “Ticks spread disease, and fleas can transmit tape worms, or trigger allergies and skin problems,” Larkin said. “A significant flea burden can slowly exsanguinate a dog or a cat.” Many flea and tick deterrents can be applied to the skin of the pet, or taken orally. Veterinarians are starting to see some resistance to flea and tick products that have been around for a while, he said, so choosing a newer product may be more effective. “Intestinal worms can be acquired through normal foraging behaviors outside and in the grass, or they get on the animal’s skin and are then ingested through grooming,” said Larkin. Symptoms include stomach upset, vomiting, loose stool, possible bloody stool, weight loss in an adult dog or failure to gain weight in a puppy, poor appetite, and sometimes worms are visible in vomit. “Heartworms live in the bloodstream and cause problems with both dogs and cats,” Larkin said. Heartworms are transmitted by mosquitoes, and are not as common a problem in this region of Maine as elsewhere, but, “I have diagnosed it in dogs that have never left the state,” he said. Getting a pet screened annually is important, and before administering any heartworm deterrent, which could cause a serious reaction in an animal already infected. Once pets are infected, treatment of heartworms is both costly and a cause of many side effects, Larkin said. Symptoms of heartworms in dogs include those similar to heart failure, such as coughing and exercise intolerance. In cats, symptoms may resemble asth- ma. Cats can become symptomatic with just one worm, while in various sizes and breeds of dogs, it can take several worms to hundreds of them. There is no reliable annual test for heartworms in cats. Just like humans, pets need physical and mental exercise to stay fit and happy. With dogs, the amount and type of exercise needed depend on breed. “I don’t recommend people let dogs freeroam,” noted Larkin. “There’s always that chance they are going to get into trouble, get lost, run into a wild animal, or get into the road and get hit. It’s important to have some kind of containment.” Most felines can find enough play and mental stimulation with a few toys and some vertical integration such as a cat tower. Something often overlooked is dental health. “Eighty percent of the animals we see here overall have some level of dental disease,” said Larkin. “We know for a fact that if the mouth is infected and diseased, it is hard on the whole system. The animal is fighting infection on a constant basis, and there is a risk of it getting into the bloodstream and affecting the organs. In an older dog when we have to take out most of the teeth, they actually feel better once they’ve healed up. I’ve had clients say they don’t’ know what they will do with all of the dog’s newfound energy!” Owners can do dental home care, “the best of which is brushing the teeth once a day, assuming the pet will allow it,” Larkin said. If not, there are chew toys and water additives that promote dental health. “At some point most pets get to the point that they need a dental cleaning to halt or reverse dental disease. We do that. Dogs and cats require general anesthesia because they have to be immobilized for us to do an effective job.” As pets age, there are additional considerations, such as pain management, and liver and kidney function. Changes in food and water consumption, activity level, and new skin problems are all worth investigation. Often, a change of diet and/or prescription medications are available to make your aging pet more comfortable and healthy, Larkin said.

While the medical benefits of neutering male animals are less compelling, there are some, and the procedure helps with behavior issues. “A lot of it is curtailing roaming behavior,” Larkin said. A male dog looking for receptive females may leave the yard and be at increased risk for getting lost, being hit by cars, or fighting with wildlife or other pets. During his work in an emergency care clinic for pets, “I did see a lot of dog versus car and cat versus car and 80 percent of those were intact male dogs,” said Larkin. Additionally, male pets can’t get testicular cancer, and neutered dogs do not get prostatitus, which can cause problems with urination and defecation, and once developed, “the only effective treatment is to neuter them at that point,” he said. Perhaps the most compelling reason is overpopulation, however. “The bottom line is that we don’t need any more cats and dogs,” said Mary Shapleigh of the nonprofit organization P.E.T.S. (Prevent Euthanasia Through Sterilization) in Dover-Foxcroft. “Shelters are overloaded because there are not enough homes, and this is the reason animals, espe- ADA FENCE COMPANY, INC. 1110 Main Street, Palmyra, Maine 04965 Phone: 207-938-2530 • Fax: 207-938-5116 • Toll Free: 1-888-891-4564 ADA Fence Company, Inc is not only a fence contractor, but we also build pet kennels.

One is the statewide Help Fix ME program, which provides vouchers from the state to have cats operated on for $10, and pit bull or pit mix dogs for $20. “It takes about a month to get the voucher, so people don’t want to procrastinate if their pet is reaching maturity,” Shapleigh said. Call 1-800-3671317 for more information on Help Fix ME. The Cleo Fund also provides spay/neuter vouchers based on income.” Rates vary by region, with cats costing between $20 and $33; $50 for dogs less than 75 pounds and $60 for larger dogs. Occasionally, special campaigns are offered during which cats can be spayed/neutered for as little as $5. Purebred, designer, and purchased dogs are excluded from the program, with the exception of pit bulls. The animals also get a rabies vaccine during the visit. There is no income requirement for people seeking spay/neuter vouchers for feral cats. There is only one clinic, in Freeport, that accepts the Cleo vouchers, but P.E.T.S. does provide transportation for local animals on designated days, Shapleigh said. Owners can also transport their own pets directly to the Community Spay/Neuter Clinic in Freeport. “Their number is 865-0772, and Dr. Stone has spayed and neutered over 18,000 pets in the four-and-a-half years she’s been open,” said Shapleigh. Call 773-6221 for more information about the Cleo Fund. Additionally, people receiving financial assistance from the state can bring proof of that to the Bangor Humane Society to receive a voucher toward spay/ neuter costs. “They should call their veterinarian’s office to be sure their vet accepts that voucher, and to find out how much they have to pay beyond what the voucher covers,” Shapleigh said. P.E.T.S., which has been working in this region since 1991, also offers a reduced-cost spay/neuter program. The all-volunteer group does raises its own funds through yard sales, plant sales, wreath sales, and its annual lasagna dinner, scheduled from 4 to 6 p.m. on Saturday, April 25 at the Congregational Church in Dover-Foxcroft. The menu includes a variety of lasagnas, salad, beverages, and desserts. The cost is $6.50 for adults; $3.25 for children under age 12. All proceeds assist with spaying/neutering of companion animals. “We do apply for grants, but we don’t always get them because we’re a small organization,” Shapleigh said. The organization could use donated, gently-used animal crates -- and money. “Everything helps, even a dollar or two. And if anyone wants to sponsor a cat or dog, they can earmark their donation to go just toward that.” Donations may be mailed to P.E.T.S., P.O. Box 912, Guilford, ME 04443.

(Grant photo) Horses require more commitment than many pets by Sheila Grant Special to The Eastern Gazette DOVER-FOXCROFT - Horseback riding can be a terrific hobby, calorie burner, stress reliever, social activity, and a skill that provides a lifetime of enjoyment, an educational edge for college students in animal-related fields, and even lucrative employment for young people who learn to give lessons, ride boarded horses for busy owners, and house/horse sit when owners are away, said Gail McCormack, owner of Infinity Farm in Dover-Foxcroft. McCormack, 50, has been involved with horses since age 10 and has owned them since her early 20s. Infinity Farm boards and trains horses and people of all ages, and in all disciplines, including English, Western, jumping, and dressage for all skill levels. The farm has a working student program that allows students to pay cash for some lessons while earning others by doing chores. A large indoor riding rink allows students to practice year-round. Owning a horse, which can live to age 35 and beyond, is a 24/7, 365 commitment, McCormack said. Day-to-day care includes feeding, watering, brushing, turning the horses in and out, as well as stall, barn and fence maintenance. Horses need between five and 20 gallons of fresh water every day, and in winter, water must be thawed or ice must be chopped through. “A lot of people find that horses get colic because they are not getting enough water,” McCormack said. “And we feed hay 24/7 here. It is always available because horses are grazers made for a lot of little feedings rather than one big one.” A horse can eat 50 pounds, about one bale, of hay daily. Some horses are also given grains to help with weight gain and stamina. A bale of hay can cost $4 and up. To avoid illness, the hay must be good quality and free of mold. Not every horse needs shoes, but they do need hoof care on a regular basis. Horses also need annual exams, veterinarian visits for illness, treatment for about eye injuries, which are not Every time you ride your horse, always gain more knowledge and worms, vaccinations, and more. uncommon and should always be you are either training or un- depth.” “Routine vaccines are very discussed with a vet, he said. training.

Just ask Cynthia Scott, who gave up her job as executive director of Pine Tree Hospice to open a doggie daycare on January 1, 2010. During the five years since, Cynthia’s husband Russell has been able to retire after 35 years with the Maine Department of Conservation to help run the business, and Fresh Air Dogs has had only 11 days in all that time that canine guests weren’t visiting. The business has provided several part-time jobs over the years, and has supported other pet-related services, including the Fairfield-based mobile dog grooming service Primp My Paws, which comes to the doggie daycare to work with guests on a regular basis. Fresh Air Dogs, a state licensed and insured doggy daycare, is “a place for dogs to do what dogs like to do and get lots of pampering, too.” Daily pack walks, swims, games of fetch and more, under the Scott’s supervision, are all part of the Fresh Air Dogs experience. “And in May of 2012 we hired our first employee. We have had more since, to help with cleaning, office work, that kind of thing.” The Scott’s first employee, Carol Morin, of Sebec, still works at Fresh Air Dogs, and provides much of the activity and supervision to keep canine guests busy, happy and safe. “Russell and I have always been animal lovers,” Cynthia Scott said. “When we got our first dog I don’t think we’d been married more than a couple of weeks.” The couple has decades of experience caring for, and training, canines. The Scotts got to know the owners of Four K’s Golden Kennels near their former home in Farmington, and eventually began assisting with dog obedience classes. When the Four K’s owners moved in 1983, the Scotts took over and became Good News Dog Obedience. Training and socialization are still important aspects of their work. “If your dog is trained you have control and you can take your dog more places; people will welcome you bringing your dog more places if it is well behaved,” Scott said. Putting in the time to train a pet with consistent commands and maintain that training pays off. “I think all dogs want to please their owners.” Since retiring, Russell Scott has completed two dogtraining internships with Pat Miller of Peaceable Paws in Maryland, specializing on positive reinforcement, behavior modification and helping fearful dogs. He offers evening classes through the Piscataquis Valley Adult Education Cooperative, beginning a new series every couple of months, or whenever there are enough names on the waiting list. “One thing that makes us unique is that because we are trainers, the dogs can’t help being trained every single day,” Cynthia Scott said. “They have to sit before we open the door, before they get a treat. Some come here already well behaved; some are just puppies. We expect the same things out of them and work with them. They are constantly having to learn what I call petiquette.” Scott said it is very important for people to start working with a professional trainer sooner, rather than later, because it is easier to teach a puppy good habits than it GUESTS AT FRESH AIR DOGS patiently wait for Carol Morin, and Russell and is to retrain an older during morning playtime on March 9.

We have taken dogs that have had surgery and need to be with someone during the day after, and we’ve taken dogs on hospice. Those dogs require a lot of extra care and quiet. We can’t always take whatever someone calls with -- it just depends on what else is going on here.” Despite advertising only through social media and wordof-mouth since 2011, Fresh Air Dogs averages a dozen guests per day. “The thing that means the most to me, and that happens all the time, is that so many people who come are so glad to find a place where their dog is at a home, and not going to be in a kennel,” Scott said. “We have had about 700 dogs here for daycare and overnights, and we get new dogs every single week.” Vacation weeks fill up fast; Scott advised calling sooner rather than later.

The Eastern Gazette * Your HomeTown AdVantage April 24 - 30, 2015 Page 15 PhoDOGraphy: the love of pets and pictures combined by Sheila Grant Special to The Eastern Gazette DEXTER - Diane Parola of Dexter has loved photography since her stint on the yearbook committee in high school. After graduation, she did some freelance photography for local newspapers, but it remained mostly a hobby. “I have done a few weddings for friends and family, sporting events and church functions,” she said, “but I hadn’t thought about getting into it as a business. There are a lot of photographers out there and my work didn’t stand out.” Also, Parola said she was never really comfortable posing human subjects, and she was hesitant to pursue a second job that would consume weekends on top of her full-time employment with Maine Highlands Federal Credit Union. But when the family took in a buff-colored cocker spaniel named Trooper two decades ago who loved to have his picture taken, Parola’s interest in photography was reawakened. “He was a great dog,” she said. “I would say Trooper got me started with the idea of photographing dogs. I temporarily gave up on the idea when Trooper died because I had convinced myself it sounded a bit silly. Then, when we got Cali, our black and white Springer spaniel in 2007, I got the itch again.” Cali, however, ran in the opposite direction whenever she saw the camera. Instead, Parola asked coworkers to bring their dogs to her basement studio as practice subjects. Calidoodle PhoDOGraphy has since grown through word-of-mouth advertising. Parola recently launched a new website and hired an assistant. Like many home businesses owners in this region, Parola struggles with slow Internet service. “I don’t have a lot of pics on there yet because uploading from my house is extremely slow,” she said. “I just have to go to a friend’s house for this, or somewhere with free Wi-Fi.” Customers can purchase photos directly from the site once they have been uploaded. “I have an assistant, Ramona Flint, who has been a valuable part of these sessions,” Parola said. “She loves dogs as much as I do, and can get them settled down where I need them. “I’ve learned a lot and found that I much prefer to pose dogs than people,” she continued. “I have been asked to take pictures of people’s children with their dog and I will say ‘Sorry, I don’t do people.’ A regular photographer can do that.” Some of Parola’s tips for DIY pet photographers include getting down on the dog’s level, make silly noises, and be ready to snap those pictures quickly! “I have found that dogs respond to sounds differently,” she said. “Some will give me that cute little tip of the head while others just perk up their ears. Either way, I am ready with a quick click of my camera – or rather, several clicks!” Parola, a self-described perfectionist, takes a lot of pictures. “I am sensitive to the amount of time I spend ‘bothering’ dogs, though,” she said. “I can tell when they just aren’t interested anymore and will give them a break.” When Fresh Air Dogs doggie daycare opened in Guilford [see Business is doggone good for Guilford Couple, page 14], Parola couldn’t resist the pull of so many pooches in one place. “Cynthia Scott of Fresh Air Dogs invited me to set up my studio in her garage a couple of times. This provided a wide range of dog breeds to work with." At her own home studio, Parola has backgrounds of various colors and props to use with her canine subjects. “Also, I have recently purchased new lighting that has been a huge help,” she said. “I need a fairly big space to set up and it isn’t always easy to get this,” Parola said. “I have done a couple of sessions at All Breed Groom and Board [in Sebec] recently. I would love to find a space in Dexter or DoverFoxcroft to use for a day. I have also set up at Paws on Parade in Bangor, and will definitely do that again. That was fun!” Each work environment presents its own set of challenges, but Parola prefers studio photography. Another challenge is photographing two or more dogs together, which takes a lot of patience and owner assistance. “Once when trying different noises to get a group of five dogs’ attention all at the same time, I decided to meow like a cat,” she said. “Bad idea! They all came at me at once!” Regardless of the challenges, Parola loves doing canine photography. “A lot of people that feel their dog is like a member of the family,” she said, “and who doesn’t want pictures of their family?” POSING POOCHES - Diane Parola would much rather pose pooches than people.
