Vivint Apx alarms Preys on old people, and pressures you into a sale Winnipeg, Manitoba Canada
We have had this company come to our door every year trying to sell us an alarm system. Each time they have a new "technique" to try to pressure you into a system. This years was so far the best! Our salesmen straight up admitted to me and my wife that he tells older people that there have been more and more break ins in their area and that old alarm systems are garbage and can be by passed by any amateur thief.
I do understand that their alarm system is far from conventional but if it is as amazing as they say it is then why do they need to mislead people? On top of that it was going to be risk free for 2 weeks but after he started explaining it the fees just started adding up. Either way after seeing all the other reports people have filed against castlerock alarms, apx alarms, or now vivint alarms I'm fine with sticking to the alarm system I have now, a white German Shepard/ Husky and dead bolts! It's been working for us so far!!

Tips on How to Care for Your Aged Horse
#4Consumer Comment
Tue, June 28, 2011
Horses just like us humans age at different rates, chronological
age doesn't always match the aging process. With careful management and a little insight the veteran horse can live a longer and more productive
life.Protect your veteran horse with good nutrition, older horses, need much more protein and fat than a middle-aged horse, they also need access to good-quality fibre. Make sure the hay they have is of good quality and not too mature, older horses cannot chew their food
efficiently. Good quality beet pulp, alfalfa pellets or complete pellets
for the older horse, add oil and make into a mash, it's easier to eat
and digest. Keep a vigilant eye on your horse's weight, obese horses are
at risk from all kinds of disorders, as is the horse that is underweight. The effects that diet has on our own health is indisputable, it is much the same for the horse.Keep an eye on your horses teeth, any kind of pain associated with the mouth, will discourage a horse from eating. They should have regular check-ups with a qualified veterinarian, or horse dentist. Twice a year is recommended for the aged horse. Add more water to their feed to prevent choke.Have the farrier check your horse's hooves on a regular basis; poor hoof care is a risk in the aged horse, so your farrier should be able to alert you to any changes.If your aged horse is still able, and happy to go for a short ride, then exercise helps keep them toned, and interested. Turning an aged horse out is highly recommended, you will increase their interest in life and help keep them mobile. If they
suffer from any of the degenerative joint disease, then small doses of
Bute can be added to their feed, check with your vet if you are uncertain.A regular worming and vaccination programme is as essential to the aged horse, as it is to the younger horse. Be pro-active; plan your dates in advance.Comfort is key in maintaining and managing the older horse. Keep your eye on the weather, older horses' soon lose condition if they are turned out in poor weather, a decent rug and access to a field shelter is a must for the older horse. The same rules apply for warmer weather, access to shade and clean water is essential, a summer rug can help to keep horse fly bites at bay.If you see any changes in your horse, for example,
rapid weight loss, diarrhea, depressed appetite, or he just doesn't seem
right to you, then call the vet. There is no reason why your horse
cannot live to a ripe old age, be vigilant, use your intuition and watch
his behaviour, keep him/her comfortable and enjoy your time together.
