Roy recently wrote an ebook that is targeted toward people who operate restaurants, but it elaborates on a lot of the ideas he shared in the teleseminar as well. http://www.naprp.com/Blog/tabid/65/EntryID/21/Default.aspx http://www.naprp.com/Blog/tabid/65/EntryID/21/Default.aspx#Comments http://www.naprp.com/Default.aspx?tabid=65&EntryID=21 Fri, 29 Aug 2008 00:42:02 GMT 0 http://www.naprp.com/DesktopModules/Blog/Trackback.aspx?id=21 The next member teleseminar is called Understanding Feline Behavior with Pam Johnson-Bennett.

Consider donating to animal shelters affected by the flooding in Iowa. Even after the clean up is over, there will be an ongoing need for donations. http://www.naprp.com/Blog/tabid/65/EntryID/16/Default.aspx http://www.naprp.com/Blog/tabid/65/EntryID/16/Default.aspx#Comments http://www.naprp.com/Default.aspx?tabid=65&EntryID=16 Thu, 19 Jun 2008 23:14:49 GMT 0 http://www.naprp.com/DesktopModules/Blog/Trackback.aspx?id=16
