About Us

A message from Dina Correale, Founder of "Endless Pawsibilities."

Over the past few years, we have all been touched by the ongoing food recalls and the significant impact they have had on pets and people. We regularly hear from pet owners, that they are increasingly more concerned about what to feed their pets, and where all the ingredients in pet food products originate. We are proud to say, that the ingredients we use in all our products are 100% North American. We use only the finest organic and human quality ingredients to make our products, each chosen for their taste and their special nutritional properties. Our focus is on making each ingredient count. Why feed your dog foreign ingredients, additives and preservatives that you often can't pronounce, when you can feed them less . . . and get so much more?!

Endless Pawsibilities believes that nutrition is the cornerstone to good health and good health leads to a longer life and a happier existence, for everyone! We know that you lead a very busy life so we want to enable you to provide nourishing products to your pets and still have enough free time to spend with the ones you love. We supply what your pet needs, soup to nuts Đ fortified biscuits, bedtime snacks, walking treats, liver brittle perfect for training, whole food supplements, healing salves, breath sprays, special occasion cakes and much, much more. You name it, we can make it.

We welcome custom requests for dogs with special health needs!

It is with great sadness and a heavy heart that I share the news of the passing of my beloved Golden Retriever, Annie. Annie lost her courageous battle with liver disease at 12:30 p.m., March 19th, 2011. In her short life, Annie touched so many people's lives. She formed special and unique bonds with so many people in her life - whether it was a special morning treat or carrot, a soft whimper as she nestled her head into your lap or for some of you, an out and out hysterical greeting as you entered her home. She had a way of making everyone who crossed her path feel special.

I feel so blessed to have had her in my life. She shepherded me through some very difficult times and taught me many things about life and love that I will never forget. And over the last few weeks, as her disease progressed, our bond grew stronger every day. No one on earth will miss you more, my sweet baby girl, but know that I will carry you with me in my heart, each and every day, for as long as I shall live.

I thank you all for your love and support for Annie and I over these last few difficult months. It has meant more to me than you will ever know.

Annie was truly an angel sent down from heaven and the stars will shine a little bit brighter each night now that she is watching over us all.

Testimonials

Helen,

Our dogs are getting biscuits for the first time in their lives because of the introduction to Endless Pawsabilities. I know with certainty that every item in your splendid line of products comprises the finest possible ingredients. Your VaryBerry powders are nutritional powerhouses courtesy of the heaps of antioxidants and other superb foodstuffs. Your wonderful biscuits are redolent of the cinnamon and fruit they contain. No wonder our girls salivate when I open the boxes! The liver brittle is pure genius and I love to hear the crunch as they gobble it up. It is a really good feeling to be able to give our girls your biscuits and powders because of how healthful they are.

Endless Pawsibilities is the Dean and Deluca / Fauchon/Fortnum and Mason of the canine world! All our thanks to you.

Yvonne,

Denym loves the banana split, just like you said she would. She starts licking her lips as if to say "nummy" as she runs down the stairs for her meal. So adorable

Carol
DOGSMART TRAINING

Just want to let you know that I took home one of the sample tins (HEALING HELPER) you generously supplied. I have started to use it on our new (to us) shih tzu, Devon Shire Cream. He has had a hot spot on his left flank almost since we got him him July.

I have put your ointment on him Sunday and Monday, and it looks so much better. Amazing!

Nanci

Just want to let you know that my dogs love the powder and I still haven't go through all the shakers yet, it really does last a very long time. So far they like the original vary berry and the pumpkin pie. It also makes their breath smell like cinnamon which is never a bad thing.

I have been using "Endless Pawsibilities" products for a number of years now. Dina processes the orders very quickly and has a true love for what she does. I know when she is baking for my dogs that she adds in a few tablespoons of love. I always get a warm and fuzzy feeling when I go onto the "Endless Pawsibities" website. I feel that what Dina does comes from her heart and a part of her sales are donated to one of my favourite charities, "Smiling Blue Skies."

Dina is creative with her baking, offering many different types of cookies for all types of dogs. Most recently, I have been using her newest product, VaryBerry; what could be healthier for my best friend!

Hillside Veterinary Hospital
Victoria, British Columbia

VaryBerry Liver Brittle is a staple in our clinic and the dogs love it! We can never be without it. One of the owners actually refers to it as 'Dog Crack'

Joy, 'Dixie' and 'Yogi'
Parksville, British Columbia

These treats are Dixie certified. Known to actually spit out food fit for every other dog on the planet, she LOVES her 'Endless Pawsibilities' goodies (ALL flavours). And of course, the treats can have Yogi sitting attentively at the slightest hint of movement of the cookie jar.

Nora and 'Molly'
Pensacola, Florida

The bars arrived today. They are great! Molly likes them too! They were a real hit. She even tore the box apart after I had removed the bars. Thank you so much for making me the special recipe. The blueberry substitution and the extra sweetness made such a difference for me. The carob ones I bought won''t go to waste. Molly loves them, so she will definitely be eating all the ones of the original recipe I have left. Thank you again for being so accommodating.

I like "Endless Pawsibilities" treats so much, that I eat them myself. My current favourite is "Banana Hemp." I like my dogs to get lots of variety when it comes to their special treat times. "Endless Pawsibilities" provides my dogs with everything they "want" and everything I think they "need." Not only do "Endless Pawsibilities" treats taste great, but I know my dogs are getting a terrific nutritional boost too, each time they munch and crunch their treats. The power bars are a household hit too, and my dogs never say "no" to a truffle, and special occasion cakes can cause a "canine carnival." To top it off, my 'Endless Pawsibilities' treats are delivered to my door every week!

Partial proceeds from the sale of ALL "Endless Pawsibilities" products, is donated to The Smiling Blue Skies Cancer Fund.

The Smiling Blue Skies Cancer Fund is in loving memory of our beautiful Blues Man,
who taught us the true meaning of being a show dog.
He showed us how to live, love, laugh and learn.

Recipient of the 2004 / 2007 Golden Retriever Club of Canada
Silmaril Kennel Trophy, for the Human /Animal Bond

Recipient of the 2009 Golden Retriever Club of British Columbia
Christopher R. Burton Memorial Trophy

He was the sun and moon and stars to us. He was our Smiling Blue Skies. Since the loss of our Blues to lymphoma, in the spring of 2001, the Smiling Blue Skies Cancer Fund has been supporting OVC Pet Trust'™s quest to find more and better ways to deal with and understand the complex and devastating disease of cancer.

Smiling Blue Skies is not about one dog, one cat, or one person. It is about all of us, and thanks to special people like you, we have been able to fund a variety of exciting projects and promising studies.

Not only is the Smiling Blue Skies Cancer Fund busy, the Smiling Blue Skies Fund for Innovative Research, has opened even more doors. As Dr. Brenda Coomber, Co-director of the University of Guelph's Institute of Comparative Cancer Investigation reported, "Getting the ball rolling on a novel concept can be a major challenge, and almost every cancer researcher hears the same thing from funding agencies . . . 'Come back when you have some evidence you are on the right track.' The Smiling Blue Skies Fund for Innovative Cancer Research fills an urgent gap in OVC and the cancer centre's ability to support creative cancer research at its most fragile and vulnerable early stage."

This has included two recent research studies, under the leadership of Dr. Gordon Kirby and Dr. Jinelle Webb, partnered with three veterinary referral hospitals in Ontario, for the first Hemangiosarcoma Validation Study. The goal of the studies was to determine whether a recently identified blood protein found at high levels in dogs with hemangiosarcoma is useful as a diagnostic tool for the presence of this cancer. While the follow-up work for the test validation is still underway, the researchers and clinical specialists are very excited about their findings so far, and it is only a matter of time (and a shorter time than we could have ever imagined, so stay tuned) before a commercial diagnostic test is available, that will be more quantifiable and useful in a commercial setting.

We have also been able to fund the pilot project for North America's very first cancer registry for companion animals. The Guelph Companion Animal Cancer Epidemiologic Registry is population based and allows for special studies about the occurrence of cancer among dogs and cats, in select areas. Information gained from the cancer registry can also provide clues about cancer treatment and control in humans.

YOU have also been at the centre of Dr. Sarah Boston's comparative studies and trials related to the treatment of osteosarcoma, helped practitioners stay on top of their game, through the use of continuing education series, facilitated by Lifelearn, helped Dr. Paul Woods study the potential of Nabidiolex, to attenuate nausea, vomiting, and anorexia in dogs undergoing chemotherapy, especially those diagnosed with lymphoma, and as many of you already know, the University of Guelph is the first Canadian institution to join the US National Cancer Institute's Comparative Oncology Trials Consortium, which positions the University of Guelph's Institute for Comparative Cancer Investigation (ICCI) and the OVC Cancer Centre with 19 other academic oncology centres at the leading edge of cancer research in North America.

Smiling Blue Skies has evolved in so many ways over the past 10 years. We never dreamed that a one page memorial would turn into a real presence on the web, that one walk in Muskoka, would turn into walks across Canada, that companies like Canine Life, West Coast Canine Life, and Endless Pawsibilities, would donate a percentage of the proceeds from the sale of all their products, to Smiling Blue Skies, that groomers and trainers and doggie day cares, like Paws to Claws, would donate tips to Smiling Blue Skies, that bake sales at Awards Banquets would help fund studies and fill tummies, that bottle collections would bring in thousands, that the annual "Sashettes" calendar would develop its own cult following, that obedience training and cancer awareness would go hand in hand at Janice Gunn seminars, that 2500 blue bracelets would find their way to wrists across Canada and the United States and beyond, joining us all together as Kindred Spirits, in our quest to wipe out cancer, that agility groups across Canada would embrace Smiling Blue Skies in so many ways, from the distribution of clickers, to raffles, to Smiling Blue Skies t-shirts for special events and one of a kind pieces of Smiling Blue Skies jewelry for trial judges, that regional and national clubs across Canada, would share our passion and mission, making Smiling Blue Skies a partner in a variety of events, and that individuals and groups from coast to coast, across North America, would reach out to us, so we could help them to organize and host their own very special events.

Most important of all, Smiling Blue Skies continues to offer 24/7 support to anyone whose life has been touched by cancer. It doesnâ't matter where you live. Smiling Blue Skies will try to help you in any way they can.

As Kathy Hay, Associate Vice-President, Advancement, Alumni Affairs and Development, said in February of 2010: "Smiling Blue Skies is truly a beacon that is helping to light the way to find a cure for such a dreadful disease. The interdisciplinary cancer research and training enabled by your continued support allows future generations of cancer care specialists and scientists to achieve new breakthroughs, new diagnostic procedures and therapies. The generous support you provide has immense implications for both human and animal cancers. Thank you for your continued leadership and advocacy."

Hot Off the Press: Smiling Blue Skies has just arranged for 200 additional hours for a grief support counsellor programme, through the University of Guelph, but just because it's in Guelph, doesn't mean "you" have to be in Guelph, to access this support service.

Thanks to all of you, we are going places we never could have dreamed possible, back in the spring of 2001. Together, we are reaching beyond the bluest skies and brightest stars, to take bite after bite out of cancer, until there is nothing left!

If Hope was a medicine, Love would surely be the cure.
