"First you learn a new language, profanity; and second you learn not to discipline your dogs when you're mad, and that's most of the time when you're training dogs." Lou Shultz
Meet Rocky. Not sure his exact breed but I am sure he has pit bull in him. Not sure of his exact age but I do know he is young just by looking at his teeth and he still has that unforgettable, unmistakable puppy breath. Rocky came to join our household one week and one day ago. He was covered in fleas, dirty, ears were filthy, bloated with worms and very shy and scared. I have a huge love for dogs and anyone with a heart or soul can not resist big beautiful puppy eyes or that puppy breath. This pup needed a home and I was more than willing to try my hand out in the puppy thing. I knew my husband would be a little upset about bringing a new dog into the house so I waited until I got him and on my way home before I told him.. I also did this through text. I did not ask I just told him. He was okay with it once he seen him. (Goody)
So I get this big boy home and clean him up and get flea after flea off of him. Poor dog. He ended up having three baths within just a few days. Luckily with all that hard work I managed to make sure he is flea free and of course I can't forget the flea and tick meds I put on him. Thanks to my mother she lent me a crate to help with this whole potty training business and also to keep him from destroying or eliminating himself all over the house while we are gone. So we are home, he is introduced to the family and to Mable of course. We cant leave out our six year old basset hound. She likes him (at first) they play and get along pretty well and the first night of puppy training went over pretty smoothly.
First couple of days went as expected and very smooth then I guess when this pup got settled in I swear he turns me into the devil! I forgot how hard it was to potty train a puppy. I wish every puppy came already potty trained. Life would be much easier and there probably would not be as many homeless little or big doggies out there. I find myself cussing this poor puppy every step we both make towards the door after every accident and it seems those are getting more frequent. I blocked off the whole living room so that was the only room he would have access to so I could keep my constant eye on this sneaky little devil dog. Well once again he did good (for just a little bit).
The common signs to watch for when a puppy has to go potty are as follows:
1. The puppy will circle and whimper
2. The puppy will sniff floors
3. Puppy will need to go out after eating and after sleep
4. Generally as a rule the puppy will not soil the place where they sleep
I guess I'm going to have to learn to read all the opposite signs of this?? Rocky will not circle or whimper. He wags his tail and just pees where he is at. I have not seen this dog sniff the floor one bit except to find some food, he would rather eat, play. sleep and then potty (If Im lucky). Rocky likes to pee in his crate. Grrr!!! What gives? I realize it has only been one week but you would think he would start getting the hang of this thing and not give you that doggie grin while peeing on the floor. I think that is what makes me the most angry. I am beginning to think he likes to upset me and push my buttons, just like a child. So he goes to his crate if he does not potty outside..Now this is a whole other nightmare. This pup slams himself back and forth in the crate causing it rock back and forth and he cries and cries. I need the Dog Whisperer. Czear, where are you????
When this dog is not being such a pain in my rear he is fun. He does the normal puppy thing and he runs circles around the coffee table, plays really well with the kids and pesters Mable. Mable of course is not a fan of this home invader. He is a good companion for Justin when he is out working in the garage, nice company for me and a decent foot warmer and not to mention a great guard dog. I have faith he will be the perfect dog if I can just keep my patience and my profanity to a minimum or he may kill me by driving me insane. Have you ever wondered why we drive ourselves mad for some satisfaction? Hmm...another topic for another day.
In the mean time check out some links I have posted below of some inexpensive dog products I have purchased and have found works really well. I don't have a pet smart income I have a wal-mart income so these products work for us.

I wonder how many times I say no in one day??


Animals and Pets
My name is Turtle and I am a little, 2 mon old kitten with very unique fur that is the color of chocolate! I am your typical sweet kitten who loves to play with strings and toys and then follow up playtime with nap time. I am pretty quiet and calm natured and I am already litter trained! I like to be around other cats, and to be held and loved on by humans. I can't wait to have a family of my own!
The adoption charge on all cats and kittens is $150.00. This fee includes Feline Leukemia / FIV test (with negative results) on fullgrown cats only, Distemper / Leukemia shot, Rabies vaccination and De-worming. All cats are spayed/neutered prior to adoption...


Last year, Lee Asher launched a Kickstarter campaign so that he could purchase an RV and tour the country. The catch? He’d be doing so with a bunch of dogs.
His mission was simple: Expose people all across America to a wide range of dog breeds, all of which came from shelters. The goal was to get these people to see how important it is to adopt dogs from shelters who need homes, rather than buy from breeders or pet stores that get their dogs from puppy mills.
To help Asher out in his mission of increasing shelter dog adoptions across America, Mitsubishi donated a brand new 2018 Eclipse Cross to Asher’s organization, called Asher House. This donation is part of Mitsubishi’s own “Drive your Ambition” marketing campaign, which seeks to help out those using their passions to make a difference in the world.
But Asher got more than a new Eclipse Cross SUV to fuel his mission; he also got Mitsubishi’s ongoing support at local rescue events and social gatherings all across the United States.
Asher’s work is making a difference. To date, he has found homes for nearly 150 dogs all across America. At each event, he brings dogs from local shelters, pays the adoption fee, and offers a month’s worth of dog food.


If you want to create a dog-friendly area, here are some substances to fence out of reach of your pets.
Acorns – The toxic ingredient in acorns is tannic acid, which can cause damage to the liver and kidneys.
Antifreeze – Speaking of your garage, be aware that antifreeze can cause deadly kidney failure in dogs. The main ingredient in antifreeze, ethylene glycol, tastes sweet and is attractive to dogs. Because poisoning has been a serious issue, all major antifreeze manufacturers have recently agreed to add bittering agents to their products to reduce canine and human exposures. However, older products may still be lurking in your garage. If you own a dog, don’t store antifreeze and don’t let your car’s radiator leak.
Artificial Sweeteners – Xylitol, a popular artificial sweetener commonly found I sugar-free candy and gum, is extremely dangerous for both dogs and cats causing a spike in insulin and a severe drop in blood glucose. If not treated immediately, pets will develop hypoglycemic seizures and go into shock. Symptoms begin suddenly and will result in death without medical intervention. If you own dogs, it’s best not to stock any products containing xylitol.
There is no antidote for chocolate poisoning. However, veterinarians may induce vomiting, administer activated charcoal, and/or provide intravenous fluid to help flush toxins out of the body. If the ingestion and treatment is performed in the first four hours, the prognosis is good.
Compost –Moldy food and garden waste in compost can produce dangerous mycotoxins which are highly dangerous to dogs. Mycotoxicosis, which is poisoning by-products contaminated by fungi, can be fatal. Keep your compost out of reach, and seek urgent veterinary advice if you suspect your dog has eaten the contents of a compost bin.
Cooked Bones – though it may seem counter-intuitive, cooked bones are dangerous treats for dogs. They splinter easily and can puncture delicate gastrointestinal tissue, leading to a life-threatening condition called peritonitis that occurs when intestinal contents leak into the abdominal cavity. The only treatment is surgery.
Fabric Dryer Sheets – If your house is like mine, these little buggers show up everywhere. They have a lot of uses beyond the laundry room, from freshening drawers to removing dust from ceiling fans, blinds and computer or TV monitors.
There’s even a dangerous hack that recommends rubbing your pet’s coat with a dryer sheet to calm them during electrical storms by reducing the static electricity in their fur. But beware! Many (read most) dryer sheets contain ingredients that can be toxic to your pet. Go for a plant-based version such as Method (Beach Sage) or Seventh Generation Natural. Better yet, don’t use them on your pets. The same goes for bedding—skip the liquid fabric softener here also.
Fertilizers- If your dogs are like ours, they love to roll around on a grassy lawn. Fertilizers can be highly toxic to dogs, and it’s easy for your dog to come into contact when your sprinkle or spray it over a lawn or garden.
Organic fertilizers may sound safe, but they’re often worse. Natural/organic fertilizers contain “meals” left over in the farming or meat industries—bone meal, blood meal and fish meal. These products may smell attractive to your pet but they are not good for their digestive systems.
Products with additives such as insecticides are even more dangerous
Marijuana – If you have a dog, keep an eye on your stash! Although edible marijuana products are the most attractive to dogs, they’ve been known to consume baggies of buds straight up. It used to be marijuana toxicity usually wasn’t fatal, but there have been result fatalities after consumption of medical-grade products.
Mushrooms – While not every mushroom is toxic, it’s best to remove all mushrooms from yards where pets might eat them. If you see your dog eating a wild mushroom, seek veterinary care. If caught early, the vet can induce vomiting and avoid many of the negative effects. Try to bring one of the mushrooms with you to the vet.
Ibuprofen, Acetaminophen, any other NSAID, aspirin – while it might be a temptation to help out a four-legged friend with arthritis or other pain, DON’T’ DO IT! These are all toxic for both dogs and cats.
Pest-Control Products – Household pests certainly are nuisances. Snails and slugs destroy vegetable gardens, gophers dig up the yard, and mice and rats cause damage and contamination (and eat our citrus in Arizona).
But the poisons designed to kill these pests also can kill dogs. Gopher bait liberates phosphide gas into dogs’ intestines, causing intestinal necrosis. A painful death can follow. Snail and slug bait causes tremors and seizures—and again painful death.
An antidote exists for the hemorrhage-causing products, but they are being phased out in favor of the product that causes brain swelling, and for which there is no antidote.
All of these pesticides come in forms that are designed to be attractive to live pests—and are therefore also attractive to dogs. Don’t keep them in your house or garage.
Toads – Toads produce a venom through their skin when they’re under attack, and it can be fatal if left untreated. The toxins cause dogs to foam at the mouth, vomit, and show signs of distress such as pawing at the mouth and eyes. Take your dog to the vet if it displays any of the above signs after getting a hold of a toad.
Weed Killer – Many weed killers contain glyphosate. It’s dangerous if swallowed, licked, or brushed against. If you plan to use weed killer, keep your dog inside to avoid any problems.
Other weeds have parts that can break off and become lodged in your dog’s skin. The most common culprit is Foxtail. It’s one of the most dangerous weeds your dog can get into. Foxtail is a type of grass with seeds. These barbed seeds can enter your dog’s mouth, nose or ears. They can also become embedded in your dog’s feet, skin or genital area. They have an arrow shape that enables them to travel, and they can dive deep into any orifice, well beyond sight. Not only is the dog’s body incapable of degrading or decomposing the foxtails, these plants are barbed in such a way that they can only more in a “forward” direction. Unless caught early, surgery may be required to extract the irritant.
Of course, this isn’t the only plant/flower toxic for dogs. I’ve listed the most common below.
NOTE: Plants in Bold can be fatal
Deadly Nightshade, Delphinium, Dieffenbachia, Dumb Cane
Easter Lily (especially poisonous to cats), Elephant Ears, English Ivy, Foxglove, Geranium
Heavenly Bamboo, Hellebore, Hemlock, Henbane, Hibiscus, Holly (berries), Hyacinth (bulbs), Iris (roots), Jack in the Pulpit, Jimson Weed (Thorn Apple)
Lantana, Larkspur, Laurel, Lily, Lily of the Valley, Lobelia, Maple Tree, Marijuana, Milkweed, Mistletoe (berries), Morning Glory, Mother-in-law’s Tongue, Mountain Laurel
Oleander, Pencil Cactus, Peony (roots), Philodendron, Poinsettia (leaves, stems and sap), Poison Ivy, Poison Hemlock, Poison Oak, Poison Sumac, Primrose
Ragwort, Rhododendron, Rue, Sago Palm, Spider Plant, Tiger Lily (especially for cats), Tobacco plant, Tulip
Walnut, Water Hemlock, Weeping Fig, Wild cherry (twigs and foliage), Wolfsbane, Yarrow, Yew (berries and foliage).
Mushrooms, Nuts (all, but particularly Brazil, walnut, pecan, pistachios, macadamia and peanuts)
Onion, Persimmon seeds, Potato (green skin and sprouts), Raisins, Rhubarb
Tomato Plant (green fruit, leaves and stems).
But as tempting as it is to throw your dog the odd table scrap or treat, or even let them forage, it is very important to make sure you know what can be harmful to your pet.
If you have any doubt that they might have eaten something they shouldn’t, or if they are showing any signs of distress or unusual behavior, check in with your vet right away.
Until next week, be happy: Hug your pet!

One of the main goals with PetPal Manager was to reduce the work of the rescue or shelter in it's efforts to find new homes for pets. One of the main goals of the project was to allow you to import the pet's you've already created accounts, records, and information for and then, once you've completed the records for them, be able to upload them to the 2 largest pet adoption web sites: Adopt-a-pet.com and Petfinder.
Why keep records in multiple places and create them multiple times?
Import Pets From Your Petfinder Account
Through agreements Adopt-a-pet.com and hopefully soon with Petfinder, PetPal Manager is able to automatically upload your pets, ready for adoption, right to their sites for promotion and exposure.
To import your pets from Petfinder, simply enter your shelter ID, verify your account, then click 'Import Pets'. The system will then go out, pull 4 types of pets: Adoptable (Available), Hold (In Process), Pending (Pending), and Adopted (Adopted). You can review each pet by double clicking on each record to view the pet's current information and image to make sure you're importing the right pet. Then, check a box next to the pet's name and click 'Import'. PetPal Manager will then take all the pet's available information and insert into your account.
Once the import is competed, a record of 'Past Imports' is created so you have a permanent records of which pet's were imports, by whom, and when.
Export Your Pet Record To Adopt-a-Pet
The process to import pets from Adopt-a-pet is simple and painless. Enter your pet's information (info, description, temperament tests, medical records) into the Pet Manager as you normally would, go into the Pet Exporter, check the boxes for each pet you want to upload, and click the export button.
Once the export is finished, the pets will be loaded into your accounts and a record is created in 'Past Exports' which you can view which pets have been exported, by whom, and when. Then, if needed, go into your Adopt-a-Pet accounts and edit or refine your information for the public.

Whether they have their own pets or not, kids need to learn to respect animals, so that they continue to be respectful of them throughout their adult life. We need to teach them that animals are not just a disposable commodity, they are a living being, with continual needs that have to be met by their owners.
Owning a pet, be it a fairground goldfish or a Great Dane requires time, effort, responsibility and money. Being the owner of a pet does not come cheap, and as adults, we must ensure we can commit the required amount of time, effort and money to care for an animal for the rest of its life, before making it a part of the family. It is not only morally right to do this, it is the law. Failure to meet the needs of your pet is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act 2006.

A day after sharing that she’d adopted a puppy from Hollywood Huskies, a husky rescue nonprofit in Southern California, she revealed that she’d already upped her dog count to two. “I’m officially obsessed with fostering,” she wrote. “I couldn’t stand the thought of Jack not being with his sister, so I asked if I could take in Jill (on the right) as well. ” (Hot tip: There is a very adorable video of the pair playing together on the second slide. And then it happened.
It seems that no celebrity owns more animals than Miley Cyrus. (She has 13 or so pets, including seven dogs, two horses, two mini horses, and two pigs. ) Apparently, though, the 27-year-old still has room for more. “Baby boy Bo,” as Cyrus’s boyfriend Cody Simpson calls him, is named after her dad Billy Ray Cyrus’s high school nickname, as well as the word “rainbow. ” She dedicated one of her daily Instagram Lives to introducing him, as well as speaking with the founder of Bo’s former home, the Wagmor, about the importance of caring for animals amidst a pandemic.
Her latest is much more attainable (not to mention furrier) than the rest. “Now is a great time to foster a puppy in need! ,” the supermodel wrote on Instagram on Tuesday, revealing the two pups she adopted from the Labelle Foundation, a Los Angeles-based nonprofit. “Reach out if your living/financial situation allows,” Gerber continued.
Morrone has also reminded her followers that her new family members are still looking for a permanent home. “These sweet creatures need you so badly,” she wrote on Instagram. “Fostering a puppy during this quarantine time has been the single best decision.

At Dames Point Animal Hospital, you can be certain that your pet is getting the best care possible. Our conveniently located, Jacksonville pet hospital provides comprehensive pet surgical care. We offer a wide variety of surgical procedures, including spaying, neutering, orthopedic, and emergency pet surgery. Regardless of how complex a surgery may be, our team treats each pet with the compassion and care they deserve. Your pet’s well-being and safety is our number one priority during their surgery.
Pet Surgeries at Our Animal Hospital in Jacksonville
Depending on the wellness needs of your pet, elective pet surgery may be highly beneficial. Spaying or neutering your pet, for example, can help prevent unwanted “surprise” kittens or puppies added to your family. It can also help reduce unwanted animal behaviors that often accompany your pet’s sexual maturity, such as marketing their territory, humping things, etc.
Orthopedic pet surgery can help pets suffering from joint pain and arthritis, allowing them to live a normal life again with little to no pain.
All pet surgeries at Dames Point Animal Hospital are performed by a qualified and experienced Jacksonville veterinarian. We have a surgical suite that is equipped with the latest and greatest in technology to help better diagnose your pet’s health issues and their underlying causes for injury, illness, or pain. A more precise diagnosis will allow our team to better evaluate your pet, eliminating the need for exploratory surgery in most cases. Our goal is to be as least invasive as possible when performing the surgery. Less invasive pet surgery helps minimize the risk of complications and pain during recovery. Making fewer incisions during the surgery helps make the recovery process a faster one.
Pain Management & Safety Guidelines
At Dames Point Animal Hospital, our team follows strict pain management and safety guidelines during every single pet surgery. Prior to operating your pet, your veterinarian will discuss the surgical procedure with you. We understand how nerve-wracking it can be to have your pet operated, which is why we want to reassure you that your pet is in the best care possible. Our guidelines help ensure your pet’s well-being prior to, during, and after his or her surgery. Additionally, we will answer any and all questions you have. If there is an alternative, non-surgical option that is worth considering, we will also discuss that with you.
Pet Surgery Tips
If your pet is going to be having surgery, we recommend that you stop feeding and giving your pet liquids at least 12 hours ahead of time. It’s important that your pet has an empty stomach when being operated on to minimize the risk of possible health complications.
In order to ensure that your pet is healthy enough for surgery, we conduct thorough blood exams prior to administering anesthesia. When your pet is ready to go home, we will provide you with detailed care instructions to help ensure a safe and healthy recovery process.

THE HUNDEO APP IS GIVING AWAY FREE DOG TRAINING CONTENT, WITH NEWLY CURATED TRICKS DESIGNED TO SPREAD AWARENESS ON SOCIAL MEDIA.
— Enrico Bachmann, Hundeo founder
SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA, UNITED STATES, September 16, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ — As the number of both dogs and dog owners continues to increase around the world, tech startup Hundeo aims to democratize access to expert dog advice and keep more dogs from being sent to shelters with the #DogChallenge.
Starting on September 17, Responsible Dog Ownership Day, Hundeo is making their app content free so that people everywhere can use their dog-training tutorials to take part in the TikTok #HundeoChallenge. Dog parents and creators all over the US will be given access to high quality training lessons, broken down into easily digestible steps, that will test both humans’ and dogs’ skills.
Hundeo’s mission to keep more dogs out of shelters is more important than ever. With the worst of the pandemic behind the nation, “pandemic puppies” that were adopted during isolation are now once again being abandoned at shelters due to the inexperience of pet parents and the high expenses of dog training. By meeting dog owners where they spend the majority of their time, on their phones, Hundeo’s founder and creator is aiming to make teaching good dog behavior easy, fun and accessible.
The app offers easy-to-follow, step-by-step tutorials that focus on using different communication methods between pet and pet parent. The more dog owners learn effective ways to show their dogs what they’re asking of them, the more tricks they can learn together, with different trainings ranging in difficulty from easy to hard.
“It’s simply not feasible to offer in-person training to the rapidly growing number of dog parents,” says Hundeo founder Enrico Bachmann, “but the least we can do is give the dogs that help us a fair chance to learn the right and proper behavior.”
“With the right tools, this is actually a lot simpler to achieve than many dog owners are aware of – and incredibly fun to both do yourself and to watch for others, which is why we are excited to have the TikTok community join in and try our new challenge.”
For Enrico, incorporating the #HundeoChallenge and social media into the company’s mission felt like an even greater opportunity to reach more pet parents. By training the different tricks, pet parents can simultaneously share their rewarding successes or funny fails with others on TikTok while spreading basic training tips to those who need it, but don’t know where to look.
Even cat owners have expressed interest in participating in the #HundeoChallenge, hoping to prove that felines are just as capable of learning tricks within the app that range from posing for selfies to closing your fridge door.
The Hundeo app already has more than 150,000 registered users and has just launched in the US.
The team plans to add support for Spanish and other languages soon.
Hundeo was founded in Berlin, Germany by Enrico Bachmann. After becoming a dog parent for the first time in 2017, he quickly realized that caring for a puppy and raising a happy and healthy dog was a more complex challenge than he expected. The information he found online was often inconsistent and at times outright wrong – not to mention potentially dangerous to him and his dog, Nacho.
He knew that other dog owners must be experiencing similar struggles, so he began to curate helpful, expertly vetted information on his website with topics around canine training, health and nutrition. Enrico’s website started receiving over 200,000 visitors each month, and he went on to publish four books to further help dog owners. In 2021, he then launched the Hundeo app to help keep more dogs healthy, happy and out of shelters.

Few people need convincing that animals bring them happiness and joy, but just why is that? This can be explained for a number of reasons, some of which just being the fact that animals are cute and/or fluffy! Pets make us feel good, any pet owner can agree. The simple sound of a cat purring or a dog panting just brings joy to people. I grew up with cats my whole life, and currently, I have two fluffy tabby cats who both bring me so much joy. I’ve also been a horseback rider for over 10 years, so my love for horses is strong as well. I consider myself to be a huge animal lover, so really almost any animal brings me joy. Here are some factors on why animals are good for the soul!
Pets are like Family Members
Let me rephrase that; pets ARE members of the family! Having a pet means you care for them and spend lots of time with them, just the same amount of time that you spend with your other family members. You talk to your pets, hang out with them, they live with you, and sometimes sleep with you. You put so much love towards your pets it’s hard to consider them as anything other than a member of the family! I know I love my cats the same as the rest of my family!

There’s a lot of scientific research when it comes to the health benefits of owning an animal. Studies show that if you own a dog you’re more likely to get out and exercise more, whether or not you’re taking the dog on a walk or to the park, you’ll feel more energized to get out of the house. Studies also show that children exposed to dogs and cats are less likely to develop allergy diseases, this includes allergies to animals, food, and forms of skin irritations, such as eczema. Sharing your life with your furry friends positively influences and helps develop kids’ immune system! Another study found that animals focus on the present, meaning that they don’t look forward to “tomorrow” as they don’t possess forms of self-awareness. This being said, they help older adults and people suffering from mental illness’, such as depression, enjoy the present and not excessively focus on negative factors.
Somebody to Turn to for Comfort
Animals provide companionship, helping you get over your everyday loneliness. They always keep you company and let you be you, meaning that they’ll never judge you which is something humans lack sometimes. One of the reasons that I continue to horseback ride is not just because I love horses and think it’s fun, but it’s also because they make me feel safe. They bring me happiness whenever I feel down, and that goes for any animal. Simply seeing a dog walking down the road will bring me a sense of joy, and I hope everybody feels that way as well! Pet’s help to build relationships, not only with other animal lovers but in general, all by “teaching” us the basics of bonding with someone. Just introduce a cat to a dog person, they’ll be skeptical at first, but they’ll soon love cats as well. This works in the same way that pets bring us closer together as humans.
RELATED: Becoming a Vegetarian
They’re Just SO Cute
What can I say? If seeing a cute, fluffy little Pomeranian doesn’t bring you instant joy, you’re crazy!
All animals are innocent and don’t always understand us, so it’s best to give them endless amounts of love, especially with all the joy they bring us. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I hope that they can be a huge part of yours as well! If you’re not a pet owner, get out and spend some time at an animal shelter, or better yet adopt a pet if you can! Just remember, animals should not be taken for granted and some do require a lot more care than others. Make sure you appreciate them and give them back all the love and joy that they bring to you!

The Czechoslovakian Vlcak (CSV) is a rare breed descending from Europe (former Czechoslovakia) that has been around since the 1950's. During the upcoming of the breed Carpathian wolf blood was mixed with German Shepherd. The breed was created for the military, to have higher stamina, and travel longer distances in shorter times with quick rejuvenation of their strength for a better performance. Most importantly the CSV was created with military precision by well renouned breeders that bred one on the worlds best working German Shepherd dogs. All the negative qualities of the wolf where eliminated from the breeding stock so only the finest of dogs with good qualities would reproduce. For example shyness is a wolf trait, CSV's are not shy, and if there is shyness present they are disqualified.
Simply mixing dog with wolf, you never know what your getting! Is it going to be more wolf or dog? That's not smart. The Carpathian wolf is a different from the North American Wolf (which is used in American Wolf dog hybrids), it is much smaller and less shy. Shyness in a dog can lead to fear aggression therefore it's seen as a negative trait.
So if want to responsibly own a so called "wolf" then owning a CVS is a close as you can get (or Sarloos Wolfhound). Vlcak dogs are well behaved, trainable, and can make very good family dogs they just require solid training. So please leave it to the breeders. For more info check out the link below.

Adopting any dog is a commitment for the dogs entire life. Are you ready for a puppy?. Puppies require attention especially Vlcak puppies, CSV's can be hard headed.

So my cat has a Urinary Tract Infection.
She’s been pissing everywhere else BESIDES the litter box, as the other cats won’t let her go inside the litter box. It’s quite sad. She is one of the sweetest, cuddliest kitties you will ever meet. She is a calico with silky, soft fur.
We had to take her to the vet for her to get checked out because of her behavior. She howled, hissed, and threw herself against the cage she was held in practically the entire way to the clinic. She was terrified at the clinic, and we had to leave her there the whole day; they needed a urine sample, but she wouldn’t go. She was so scared we would leave her there for good.
She was getting attacked by the other cats and we were getting mad at her for peeing right in front of us. It isn’t hard to understand why she would believe we were done with her.
I can’t imagine the relief when my mum held her in her arms at the clinic, coddling her, getting in that same car that brought her there, and entering the house she lives in. She got extra cuddles that night.
The thing I said to her in bed, when she curled up on my chest to go to sleep, was “Don’t worry. We didn’t abandon you.”
Then, I understood something within myself.
The reason I write this post is because we need to realize even when we terribly screw up, when we have complete mental breakdowns (such as the one I have been having this week), when we cry in our spouse or mother’s arms and don’t want to leave (screaming for some reason that is completely meaningless, and we refuse to listen to reason) we are not abandoned. We are loved. There are people in our lives who seriously care about us! We are loved by our smiles, by the person, the soul within us.
No matter how we see ourselves.
When all hope feels lost, just know that God never has and never will abandon you.
We need to meet Him halfway sometimes.
Underneath all of the screams from the Enemy, God is whispering to us, “Don’t worry, I won’t abandon you. Even when you screw up. Even when you refuse to listen to me, my never failing wisdom. Even when you water the seed of doubt the Enemy has placed. I am here. My love will never, ever fail.”
Can you hear it?


More and more people are choosing natural essential oils to fragrance their homes and enjoy the amazing benefits they offer. I offer a range of homemade products containing these pure essential oils and only natural ingredients, but the one big question that I'm getting more and more of recently is...
Can I diffuse essential oils around my dog?
I have written this blog post to offer my own advice when using my products around your pets.
And to be completely honest, there is no straight yes/no answer to this question. Statements like "Definitely Not", "Never!" would contradict some holistic therapies already offered to pet owners around the world, and others like "Yes, they're completely safe" would be completely irresponsible!
So, a more informative version would be:
Most animals, especially dogs, have a significantly higher sensitivity to smells than us humans, so diffusing essential oils could be overwhelming for them and something that smells quite mild and light to us may be extremely pungent to a cat or dog. Also, with essential oils having the amazing abilities to affect us in the ways they do, they would definitely affect an animal a lot more.
Figures from scientists and people in the know say that a dog's sense of smell is approximately 10,000 - 100,000 times more sensitive than ours, and a dog's nose contains 300 million olfactory receptors and we only have around 6 million! That's an immense difference.
This doesn't mean you need to make a decision "It's the oils or the dog!", it just means you need to be careful and take more caution when there are pets around.
So with this in mind, there are some things you should, could, and shouldn't do...
Decrease the concentration of essential oils in your diffuser.
If you are going to diffuse essential oils with pets present, it would be advisable to decrease the concentration of the oil in your diffuser by adding fewer drops to the water instead of the recommended amount. The more dilute, the safer for your pets.
ALWAYS leave a door open. And remove your pet if there are any signs of drowsiness or unusual behaviour.
This is a big one! Animals like cats and dogs aren't stupid, they know when there is something they don't like and will leave an area if they feel the need to, but you must ensure you are providing an open door for them to exit freely. Be aware of how your pet acts, you know your pet better than anyone else, so remove them from the room if you think the smell is too much for them, or it looks like it may be having an unusual effect.
Wait until pets have been put to bed.
If you have rabbits, birds or other small animals that sleep in hutches or cages and are kept away from the living area at night, then wait until they have been put away to bed before diffusing your oils. My partner and I have Cockatiels and we know all too well not to diffuse oils or burn candles in the same room as them. Birds especially and essential oils should be considered a no-no. Our birds sleep in their cage at night and are covered over with a blanket, in the safety of their own room and away from any noise or smells. We can then relax, diffuse our oils and enjoy.
DO NOT apply them to your pets skin.
You shouldn't apply undiluted essential oils to your own skin, so don't apply them to your pet's skin. Yes, essential oils are used on animals around the world for holistic healing and animal aromatherapy, but only by holistic Veterinarians in a controlled environment, and definitely not undiluted!
Keep oils out of reach of wagging tails and curious paws.
Pure essential oils in their concentrated form can be extremely dangerous if ingested (even for humans) or come in contact with their skin, fur or paws. If your pet ever ingests any essential oils or gets it in their eyes, ears, etc, then head straight to a veterinarian or call them for emergency advice.
DO NOT diffuse around your pet if you know they have, or have had breathing problems.
My partner and I know all too well, birds have very sensitive respiratory tracts and can develop problems very quickly if exposed to fumes or smoke. Even fumes from household cleaning products are considered dangerous for them to inhale, so if birds/parrots are your companions, NEVER diffuse in the same room as them.
Any animal with breathing problems should be kept away from perfumes and the like.
There are some essential oils that should be avoided around pets. These include, but are not limited to:
Citrus oils (cats)
There may be more...
I am not including fragrance oils in this list, as I don't use these in any of my products.
Don't forget fragrance oils are not the same as essential oils, they are not natural essences. Fragrance Oils are synthetic and are created in a lab by mixing 50 - 80 chemicals and essences together, maybe more, to mimic aromas like Strawberries & Cream or Laundry detergent, Pomegranate and the like. I am not saying these are a no-no either, but unlike essential oils, you have a hell of a lot of ingredients to look through to find out if it would be safe.
The most invaluable advice you will ever need is:
If in doubt, always consult a Veterinarian.
I am not a Vet, so I do not claim to know all. What I have written in this post is from my own experience in Aromatherapy, common sense, research, learning and advice from our own Veterinarian.
To summarise - if you are going to use essential oils in the home and you have pets, please be cautious, aware and always provide them with an exit. And more importantly, if you want to know more, always consult a qualified Veterinarian.
For more information about Essential Oils and how they're made, see my other blog post on the subject here, or if you're interested in browsing through some of my natural products, feel free to visit the shop.

Hope has welcomed a new member of the team- Bonnie, Hope’s new therapy dog.
Bonnie is a Staffordshire Bull Terrier and is just 9 weeks old, but will grow up and be professionally trained as a therapy dog.
Bonnie will be cared for by Maggie Devlin, Team Leader at Hope House. Maggie is a qualified counsellor, and plans for Bonnie to accompany her to work, supporting her to undertake therapeutic activities with the clients once Bonnie has been fully trained.
Maggie came up with the idea of getting a therapy dog for the hostel when she saw the positive effect dogs had on clients staying at Hope House.
“At Hope, we welcome clients who have pets- we’re one of very few hostels in the country to do so. When we have dogs stay with us, our other clients respond so well to having a dog around. An animal is a calming presence, and we found that they were more likely to open up and talk about their experiences if a dog was present.
“Clients will also have the opportunity to take Bonnie for walks with their support worker, or book some time in with Bonnie 1-1 just to relax or play with her. It’s a way of providing therapy a bit differently to clients- we want to give clients comforting memories of their time with Bonnie and with Hope.”
Can you help with Bonnie’s vital work?
While Bonnie is a family dog, we are reliant on your donations to help Bonnie provide therapy to our homeless clients.
We need your help to purchase a therapy kit, which includes interactive therapy toys, dog brushes, a specialised harness and hug blankets. If you’d like to donate to help with Bonnie’s vital work, click here.

It’s especially important to note the difference of Hemp vs. Marijuana when it comes to treatment for pets.
Since the U.S. November election, the majority of the states have officially recognised the use of medical marijuana. Eight of which have legalised recreational marijuana. The benefits of medical marijuana isn’t limited to people; pets can find relief from it as well.
When veterinarians are asked by their clients about treating their pets with cannabis, it puts these vets in an awkward legal situation.
At the Hawthorne Veterinary Clinic in Portland, Oregon, veterinarian Dr. Cornelia Wagner says there are many pet owners who choose hemp or medical marijuana as treatment for their pets that are suffering from the same ailments as humans. These include cancer, chronic pain, inflammation and seizures, to name a few.
In the past five years, conversations about medical marijuana and hemp are much more common, and Wagner says they need to be very careful about offering advice to clients. Animals react differently to marijuana, feeling the effects of THC more intensely.
The Hawthorne Veterinary Clinic chooses to carry only hemp products, because hemp doesn’t have the psychoactive component like marijuana.

WINNIPEG - A Winnipeg man is over the moon, and his cat Dewy a lot cleaner, after the feline friend went missing for nearly a month at a Toronto airport. Riley McCann said Dewy wasn’t pleased about getting his first bath since before the flight that led to him going missing for more than three weeks.
McCann had been moving from Montreal to Winnipeg on Saturday, January 16, bringing with him his two cats. His cat Vida rode in the cabin, while paid extra for Dewy to travel with the cargo. During a layover at Pearson International Airport, the gate on Dewey’s cage somehow fell open, so naturally Dewey ventured out to explore the warehouse. It was three weeks and three days before McCann learned Dewy had been found in the cargo building. McCann learned Dewy was getting ready to board a flight to Winnipeg Richardson International Airport to reunite with his human.
McCann says the ordeal left the cat covered in warehouse dirt and badly malnourished, but Dewey is now home eating a lot of food and drinking a lot of water ahead of a checkup appointment today with a local vet.
This reunion happened two days after Kerji Stephens’ was reunited with Kevin the Cat following a devastating fire at their St. Malo home. A malfunctioned outlet in the porch tore through the old wooden farmhouse, and she and her partner escaped in only their pajamas. While they tried to rescue their five pets, including two of the dogs who escaped unharmed, another dog and two cats had gone missing in the blaze.
In the days that followed, Stephens described a few small but amazing miracles. Two days later, their dog, who they didn’t know was pregnant, gave birth to a puppy. People surrounded the family with love, providing them with financial support and an animal-friendly cabin to stay in. Then this week the couple discovered several of their treasured possessions and pets.
They visited their burned out home and noticed cat tracks. They followed them, along with a faint meowing sound, and discovered Kevin curled up in a shed, a tabby who had survived getting hit by a car just weeks earlier, and had been sleeping on the porch when it went up in flames. He had been living outside for a week in -40 weather. “I couldn’t be happier,” Stephens says, “We needed this.”

When you go searching for food, search for dog food that is specific to the size of your canine. Small dogs will not have the ability to get their mouths around the food made for huge canines, and big dogs are going to need something much more substantial than food made for smaller sized dogs.
Inquiry # 2 – Does Your Canine Have Allergies? – You must likewise ask yourself whether your canine has any type of allergies when you are picking pet food as well. If there are particular components that your canine dislikes, you will certainly have to beware when making your option.

Likewise, you’ll obtain food that is high quality and also healthy for your canine too.


Ever since humans have kept cats as pets, the question as to whether they can see ghosts in our homes has been raised. The varying different behaviouristic traits are relatively still a puzzle, and even though we are able to learn and understand more and more about our furry companions, we question their spiritual understanding. And the CLAIRE BARRAND asks the big question – can cats see ghosts?
Can cats see ghosts?
Throughout history, cats have been associated with the supernatural, and the ancients believed they had unique connections with the spirit world. In Ireland and Scotland, it was once thought that the Cat Sidhe or Cat Sith would steal a person soul before it was claimed by the gods after burial. Folk would perform watches called Feill Fadalach over the corpse night and day to keep Cat Sith away and use methods of distraction like using catnip. They also would not light fires near a corpse as they believed the warmth would attract the Cat Sidhe.
From a scientific point of view, we know that cats have sharper senses than we do. A cats’ eyesight is better than humans, and recent research suggests cats see ultraviolet light which humans cannot. Cats view things in just two colours, yellow and blue. We also know that cats can see in the dark, like a night vision camera. Their pupils allow more light in than ours do. Acting like little motion detectors as well our cats eyes have an inbuilt ability that picks up small movements invisible to the human eye.
Cats can also hear frequencies that are 4 or 5 times higher than the ones we hear. They pick up on ultrasounds that we cannot. As well as this, cats can detect where a sound is coming from to within 5 degrees – which is what makes them such good hunters. It is not difficult to see how these amazing creatures actually have the most advanced ability to detect paranormal activity, if only they could talk!
So what signs would our pet show if they were to sense a ghost in its presence? How would we know they were detecting a spirit and not just hearing a mouse? It is important to know your pet’s behaviour well because that understanding is vital to differentiate between what is “normal” behaviour for your pet and what isn’t, before assuming it is the spirit of Great Uncle Frederick.
Growling and Hissing
If there is “nothing there” and you see your pet displaying this type of behaviour it would indicate they are frightened of something, and its unlikely to be just a simple “critter.” Look at the external factors around you. Is your pet hearing a stranger approaching? Has another animal encroached onto its territory perhaps another cat a dog or a fox? Check around out for hedgehogs and rats which are quite large and can make strange noises.
Maybe your cat sometimes just sits and stare at “nothing” and you are wondering what it is they ae looking at? Well if your cat is relaxed they are probably just listening to something, if your cats’ ears swivel round like satellite dishes, then it is trying to pick up the direction of where a sound might be coming from, they are not necessarily looking at anything at this moment.
Consider the weather? In 2004 there were many reports of domestic animals behaving oddly just before the Indian Ocean Tsunami disaster struck. Experts believe they picked up on the earth vibrational changes on land. We don’t get Tsunamis in the UK, but we do get earth tremors, and quite extreme windy conditions, as well as thunderstorms all of which do affect a cats behaviour. Are they sniffing around an area excessively? Are their hackles up? Reassure your pet with your voice and check the area out.
Finally, if your pet starts to display odd behaviour always check with a vet that there isn’t a physical problem before assuming there is a supernatural one. Cats that have issues with their eyesight, for example, may suddenly appear more cautious when approaching objects just as we would if everything looked fuzzy! Fleas can make your cat very jumpy and nervous and irritable as can many other conditions, so always get this checked out.
Once we have ascertained that there could be no possible logical explanation for our pets odd behaviour, what then? Many of us believe firmly that our animals have a strong sixth sense and there are countless stories of the bond between humans and their pets being so high that even death cannot part them. There is undoubtedly a connection between us and the pets we love that also scientists cannot explain. Many times, owners have reported that a cat will remain sleeping in a favourite chair or bed where a deceased loved one once always sat as if they sense their presence. The Blue Cross ran a recent survey, and it was revealed that 29% of UK pet owners believe their pet has seen a ghost or spirit.
If a spirit is familiar to your cat, and not seen as a threat, then there it is probably safe to assume that little would indicate that they have seen that person. However it can be reassuring to hear a cat purr when curled up in a favoured spot of the loved one, and you may also sense that they are close by. Your cat might suddenly look up as if that person has entered the room, it may get up and walk over to an area and start to purr or rub its body on the furniture just as it would when you arrive home. But if that person lived there with the cat and did that regularly once, then this would not be unusual to the cat even though the person is in spirit, as we could assume the energy of the person will be the same.
The most significant indicator that your house is haunted and your cat has seen a ghost would be a display of fear. If he or she suddenly arches his back and puffs up his fur, his eyes dilate, and he begins to hiss wildly, yet you can’t see anything, then this would be quite a big giveaway that something spectral is there.
Do you sense something yourself? Perhaps you heard something move or a strange sound, or suddenly felt a presence in the room and a cold chill? Do the hairs on the back of your neck rise, at the same time you notice your cat’s behaviour shift? If puss starts to growl or hiss, at the same time as other unusual activity in your home, then this would be something to take note of, and it may indeed be time to call in the professionals!


We often come to the internet to escape everyday stress. Fun stories and videos depicting cats and dogs doing silly things are our go-to for entertainment. However, we need these stories too. Not to bring us down, but to keep our pets safe and healthy. Sadly, for one dog owner, this story is her reality.
Christina Young recently said goodbye to her four-legged best friend, Petey, after a tragic mistake claimed his life. She wants other pet owners to know that this was 100% preventable, and for most of us, “this mistake” has already happened in our homes.
