Waukesha, WI (PRWEB) December 30, 2011

Belman Homes will begin development of three phases of homes starting in summer 2012. The developer plans to build popular models for buyers who are ready to occupy at purchase and offer a build-to-suit option from buyer’s choice of lot and over 50 home plans, priced from $ 330,000.

Waukesha custom homebuilder Belman Homes has announced the acquisition of a 45-lot subdivision in the Town of Waukesha. Named Rolling Oaks II, the preliminary development plan was just approved by the Town Planner, which clears the way for Belman to begin lot development in summer 2012 and home construction starting in early fall.

“We are excited about our acquisition of Rolling Oaks II,” said David Belman, Vice President Belman Homes, Inc. “I have lived in the Town my entire life, just a short distance from the development, because I believe it is the perfect place to live and raise a family.”

Belman Homes has built homes in the Town of Waukesha for over 40 years, and earned a stellar reputation as both a home builder and land developer. The Waukesha builder plans to develop Rolling Oaks II in three separate phases of 15 lots each over the next few years.

The plan calls for construction of move-in-ready homes and build-to-suit homes, which allows the home buyer to choose their lot and select a model from one of over 50 Belman home plans. Home and lot packages will start at $ 330,000.”

“We expect solid sales at Rolling Oaks II for many reasons, starting with its value proposition; Town of Waukesha properties values have consistently held up much better than those in the City the past few years,” said Belman, “Homebuyers also enjoy the community’s low cost of living.”

The Waukesha homebuilder also chose to purchase the Rolling Oaks II subdivision because he feels buyers will appreciate its spacious ¾ acre lots, low Town of Waukesha taxes, excellent schools, and close proximity to City amenities and Minooka Park.

Minooka Park offers a refreshingly tranquil atmosphere that contains a 3.8 acre small-breed dog exercise area and an 11.9 acre area for large-breed dogs. The park is popular for its abundant recreational opportunities, including swimming, fishing, hiking, archery, horseback riding, cross-country skiing, sledding, picnicking for families and groups, and geocaching.

Belman Homes offers many energy conservation options, including homes certified by the Focus on Energy New Homes Program. To obtain certification, the home must pass a series of performance tests and must meet specific program standards. Certification ensures the buyer that their homes will be comfortable, safe, durable, and energy efficient.

For more information about the Rolling Oaks II homes or any other Belman home, call (262) 544-4648 or visit http://www.belmanhomes.com.

Los Angeles, California (PRWEB) December 20, 2011

When one door slams shut another one opens.

Monica Nista, 32, a University of Virginia graduate from Connecticut, has launched a new pet sitting, house sitting and plant sitting service called Rascals Inc. (http://www.rascalsincla.com)

“After being laid off in August, I was lost and nervous about the future. Then I spoke to my parents one day about how we always wanted to start a family business and I said, that’s it, I’m taking matters into my own hands,” says Nista.

Nista has always had a passion for animals. She volunteers for Ace of Hearts Dog Rescue and the California Wildlife Center. Her love of all things fuzzy, combined with a desire to help people, inspired Rascals, Inc.

She wanted people and their pets to have an alternative to kennels and boarding facilities while they’re traveling, as well as an in-home sitting/upkeep service. Nista grew up bringing her family’s dogs to the kennel, but today that should be an owner’s last option.

“I remember constantly worrying about our golden retriever Paddy, and how unfair it was that he had to be cooped up in a cage whenever we took trips,” says Nista. “Finding a trusted pet sitter like Rascals, Inc. is the best way to keep your animals comfortable while you’re away.”

In addition to their in-home sitting services in the greater Los Angeles area, Rascals, Inc. (http://www.rascalsincla.com) offers daily dog-walking and running. Nista, an avid runner herself, having finished two marathons and two triathlons, thinks it’s important to keep your dogs fit. Often the solution to calming an aggressive animal is exercise.

One thing Nista noticed in creating her small business is she had to set herself apart from the crowd. One of her favorite services Rascals, Inc. (http://www.rascalsincla.com) offers is animal nuptial assistance. Many pet owners couldn’t imagine their wedding day without their furry family member so Rascals, Inc. will take care of pets while newlyweds celebrate.

“I’m not even engaged, but I’ve already started planning how to incorporate our adopted pup Agnes into our wedding ceremony,” says Nista. “And I’m sure I’m not the only one who’s envisioning dogs walking down the aisle with rings.”

Nista loves plants and keeping a home clean and organized, too, and she insists Rascals, Inc. is more than just a pet-sitting business.

“How many times have you received a gorgeous plant or flower one day only to have to leave town the next?” she says. “We love having fresh flowers and plants around and they deserve TLC, too.”

Nista thinks of herself as kind of a modern-day butler of sorts. No service is impossible to her or her team. They are Rascals, Inc.

Bark Busters Home Dog Training

Englewood, CO (PRWEB) November 29, 2010

In the spirit of the coming season, Bark Busters, the world’s largest dog training company, offers helpful holiday tips for dog owners on how to keep their dogs safe and happy during the holidays.

“In planning for this season’s holiday festivities, it is important to keep your pets in mind. While most of us welcome the sights, sounds and smells of the season, holidays can also be chaotic—especially for dogs,” said Liam Crowe, CEO and master dog behavioral therapist of Bark Busters USA. “Holiday festivities can interrupt a dog’s routine and present a potentially unsafe situation. But by following a few common-sense tips, the holidays can be cheery for everyone—including the family dog.”

Holiday foods can be harmful

    Many holiday foods can be harmful to canines, causing symptoms as mild as an upset stomach or as severe as vomiting and diarrhea. Avoid giving your dog fatty or spicy foods, bread dough, fresh herbs, alcohol beverages, caffeine and sweets of all kinds—especially those with chocolate or xylitol, a natural sweetener.
    Particularly dangerous are cooked poultry bones. Cooked bones easily splinter, and the bone shards can cause choking, get stuck in your dog’s gums or possibly damage his intestines. Instead, treat your dog to “dog bones” specifically designed for him to chew. Ask your veterinarian for suggestions.
    Discourage your dog from foraging in the garbage—secure lids on all trashcans.
    It’s natural that you’d want to share holiday treats with your dog. While a little taste of turkey or sweet potatoes can make your dog happy, don’t overdo it—too much of a good thing can make him sick.

Decorations are not playthings

    Keep your pet away from holiday plants, many of which are poisonous, such as holly, mistletoe, poinsettias and amaryllis (a type of lily). Also be sure all potpourri is out of your pet’s reach.
    Snow globes can contain antifreeze, which is toxic to dogs. Whether in the garage or in a snow globe, keep antifreeze products away from your happy, tail-wagging dog. If there is an antifreeze spill, keep your dog out of the room while you clean up the liquid. Dilute the spot with water and floor cleaner to ensure your dog does not lick the area later.
     Keep electrical wires and batteries out of your pet’s reach. Chewing or biting anything electrical can cause him shock or burns.
    Don’t leave lighted candles unattended. A lit candle knocked over by a swinging tail can burn your pet or cause a fire.

Christmas trees can be hazardous

    Anchor the tree to the ceiling or wall to prevent it from tipping over.
    Hang non-breakable ornaments near the bottom of the tree.
    Avoid putting tinsel on your tree. If ingested, tinsel can twist in your dog’s intestines and be deadly.
    Don’t let your dog drink the Christmas tree water. The water may contain preservative chemicals, which can trigger severe indigestion in dogs. Stagnant plain water can breed bacteria and cause nausea or diarrhea to the pet that imbibes.
    Regularly sweep up fallen pine needles, as they can puncture holes in a dog’s intestines if ingested.

Help your dog feel safe and relaxed

    Most dogs get very excited when guests arrive. To help your dog be calmer, exercise him prior to the festivities. After 30 minutes of walking or playtime, your dog will more likely be relaxed or want to nap.
    As a general rule, don’t allow the family dog to greet unfamiliar guests since unusual activities and commotion can cause him extra stress.
    Give your dog a break from the hubbub by putting him in his crate or in a quiet room with his doggie bed. Allow him to rejoin the festivities after guests have arrived.
    Pets stressed by unfamiliar events typically pant more, so keep your dog’s water bowl filled with fresh water.

Pets like presents too!

    Help your dog stay busy and out of the holiday trimmings by giving him fun, safe gifts.
    The Buster Cube™ and Kong™ are virtually indestructible puzzle toys that reward your dog with treats and keep him well entertained.

Please don’t give a pet as a surprise gift!

A cute puppy might seem like the perfect gift choice, but many of these holiday presents end up at animal shelters. Owning a dog takes a genuine commitment of time and responsibility, and adoptive owners must be ready to participate in training and other activities. If someone you know seriously wants a dog, consider giving a leash and collar, or a dog training certificate from Bark Busters along with a note saying a dog of the recipient’s choice comes with it. This helps ensure the lucky person gets just the right pet to bring into the family.

“Following these simple tips will help make the festivities safe and happy for your whole family, including your canine companions,” added Crowe.
