Your presence guards and guides me
Your voice calms all my fear
You pick me up in tenderness
And hold me safely near.
Keep me by Your side dear Lord
Carry me near Your heart
Then I'll know the joy and peace
Your precious love imparts.

30. BE CONSISTENT!!!!
7A.M - 9A.M Take the pup outside to eliminate and then feed and water him/her. The first thing you want to do in the morning is take the pup outside to eliminate. Never let the pup just run out of the crate! Make the pup be quiet before you let it out of the crate. When the pup emerges from the crate make him Sit and snap the leash onto his/her collar. Use the phrase "Do you have to go OUTSIDE?". Stress the word "outside". Do not let the pup drag you down the hallway to the door. Praise the pup when it does as you want. When you get the pup outside take it to where you want it to eliminate. Take it to the same spot every time and it will learn to eliminate there. To encourage the pup to eliminate quickly and in the same place every time you can give it a special treat when it goes. Say to the pup/dog "go potty" or "go poo-poo" in baby talk. They love that type of voice. Praise the pup enthusiastically while it is relieving itself. Bring it inside and keep a close watch on it while it greets other family members. Do not let the pup jump on people, no matter what they say! Make sure that everyone makes him/her Sit before petting him/her. Take the pup outside once more before you put it into it's crate before leaving for work. Use the phrase "Kennel", "Kennel up" or "bedtime" when you put it into it's crate. Praise when the pup goes into the crate. Do not put any food or water into the crate. Do not put any towels, rugs, beds into the crate as they will absorb urine and encourage the pup to have accidents in the crate. Once a pup is taught to eliminate in it's crate, it is almost impossible to stop. Do put a safe chew toy of some kind into the crate.
9A.M. - NOON Allow the pup to rest.
NOON - 1P.M. Take the pup outside again to eliminate. Feed and water the pup when it comes back inside. Repeat the same methods as in the morning. Praise the pup when it eliminates! Make it fun! If you work and can't be home in the middle of the day to let the pup outside ask someone you trust to take the pup outside for you. Work with this person and show him/her exactly how you do it and explain to the person why he/she must do it the same way. Bring the pup inside and play with it for a few minutes. Throw a toy or play hide and seek. Above all make it FUN! Do not chase the pup; have it chase you! Take the pup outside after 20 to 30 minutes after coming back inside. Praise the good and ignore the bad unless it is harmful to the pup, the environment or other people or dogs. Take the pup outside once more before putting it back into it's crate.
1P.M. - 5P.M. Let the pup rest in it's crate.
5P.M. - 10P.M. Take the pup outside when you let it out of the crate. Repeat the same methods you used in the morning and afternoon. Praise the pup when it eliminates outside. Take a short walk with the pup and slowly introduce it to the friendly dogs and cats in the neighborhood. Introduce it to your neighbors and other children you meet along the way. Use a four or six foot nylon or leather leash and a good buckle collar. Do not use a retractable leash(they encourage the pup to pull you)or a collar with the plastic snap(they stretch and/or break open). Praise the pup for walking beside you quietly. Walk like the pup is not there in a very relaxed manner. When you return home feed the pup and take it outside after 20 to 30 minutes. Bring the pup inside and give it supervised play time with the family. If you can't watch the pup while it is playing, put it into it's crate for a short period. The pup should be in it's crate while you are eating. This will keep the pup from learning to beg at the table. Alternate playing with the pup and taking it outside. Do not give the pup access to rooms where the adults are not at. Children will not watch the pup closely enough! They also will not take the pup outside correctly, I.E. they will not wait nor encourage the pup to eliminate. This is a job for the adults or teenagers that have shown they can be patient and responsible.
Do not give the pup water after 7 P.M. and make sure you have picked up the food after 15 minutes when you fed the pup. Take the pup outside one last time before putting it into the crate for the night.
AFTER 10P.M./ALL NIGHT If the pup cries in the middle of the night get up and take it outside. Make sure you use the same methods that you used during the day. Bring the pup inside and put it back into it's crate. Praise the pup and go back to bed.
The most important thing is being consistent when taking the pup/dog outside. You must take the pup/dog outside even in the middle of the night!!!! You can always go back to bed with the knowledge that you won't have a mess to clean up in the morning.
Remember the key to all training is this; PRAISE, PRAISE, PRAISE AND MORE PRAISE for all appropriate behavior. Ignore your pup/dog's inappropriate behavior unless it is harmful to the pet, you, or the environment. Do not correct a pup/dog unless you can follow through with the praise. A pup that can run away from you has not been corrected but taught that it can simply run away from the "barking" dog in its pack that is trying to correct it.
O---Open your heart to what God has done for you!
For God so loved the world that He gave his one and only son,that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life.
G---Give your heart to Jesus!
For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved. Everyone who trusts in Him will never be put to shame.
The first step to teaching a good solid Come is learning NEVER to call your dog to you and then scolding the dog when it does as it is told. You MUST learn to think like your dog. The dog lives in the here and now. It is not thinking about what it did ten minutes ago. Nor is it thinking that it is getting even with you by not coming when called. It will learn to understand that when you call him/her to you and it comes to you, it will be rewarded. If it comes to you and gets into trouble or gets a spanking, You have just taught your dog that it is not fun to come to you. Would you come to someone who was going to scold you when you got to the person? I think not! You would run in the other direction to avoid the trouble. Why should your dog be any different!
Unfortunately, very few dogs respond reliably to this command in the presence of distractions. Several factors will influence the reliability of a dog's response to the Come command.
One such factor is the degree to which they are socially versus environmentally focused. Dogs that are more socially focused typically tend to check in with their owners frequently and are less distracted by their environment. Those dogs will usually have more reliable recalls than will dogs that are more environmentally focused. Environmentally focused dogs are more attuned to their surroundings and what is going on around them. In distracting environments, these dogs will typically tune-out their owners and, as such, will rarely have extremely reliable recalls. Breed, personality, and the particular environment or people involved all contribute to the degree to which a dog will be more socially or environmentally focused. Nevertheless, all dogs can and should learn the best recall they are able to offer.
Unfortunately, people often neglect the most important step in teaching a Come command creating for the dog a strong, positive emotional bond with the command. This step will provide a strong foundation for recall. Consider, for example, your emotional response to the word vomit. If you are like most people, you probably felt a nearly immediate disgust reaction. Now, consider your emotional response to the word flower. Dogs like people, form emotional reactions to words or phrases. How does your dog respond when you ask, "Do you want to go for walk", or "a ride in the car", or "Do you want a treat"? What about No! Bad dog!? Which of these statements do you think would be more likely to make your dog happy and excited? The Come command needs to elicit the same emotion for your dog as "Do you want a treat"?
For most dogs, the word Come is likely to elicit a negative emotional reaction. To a dog, Come usually means stop whatever you're doing (sleeping, sniffing, getting into the garbage, exploring, etc.) and return to your handler (which often is not nearly as exciting as whatever it was you were just doing) and get a scolding.
Before you even attempt to ask your dog to comply with the Come command, you must help the dog acquire a positive feeling about the command. The most effective way to do this is to repeatedly pair the command with whatever your dog likes. For example, immediately before your dog receives something good (dinner, treats, toys, going for a walk or ride, etc.) he should hear the word Come. During this time, it is also important to not ever use the word without pairing it with something good. For this reason, many people will begin training a recall command with a word the dog has not already formed an association with and is not likely to hear at any other times (Front, Mind, or Here). Although owners and handlers must understand that not all dogs will be able to respond perfectly to a recall command, the foundation for the best possible recall lies in removing any negative feelings a dog has formed for the command and building the strongest possible feelings.
The first step to teaching a Come.
A dog must first learn to come to you on a leash. Without the leash you have no control. You tell the dog to Come and it runs in the other direction. Without a leash, you would have taught the dog that Come means to run in the other direction. The leash teaches the dog to come to you, no matter what is going on around it. Never expect a dog to know how to do a command until you teach the dog what the word means. The leash will help you do this.
When you say Come use a happy tone of voice. Clap your hands or blow a whistle to get the dog's attention. Say the dog's name, blow the whistle or clap your hands. Gently but firmly pull on the dog's leash, taking up the slack as the dog comes to you. When the dog turns to face you, praise the dog. Get excited and make the dog want to see why you are so excited. Continue to praise the dog as it comes to you. Give the dog a treat or scratch it on its favorite spot when it reaches you. This is your dog's payment for listening and responding to your command. Start from a short distance away from you, two foot away, and gradually add a foot each day. Remember to praise the dog each and every time it comes to you. Do not progress any faster than the dog is able to learn or you are able to handle at one time. Keep the lesson short and simple. Practice calling the dog while it is in the house. Call the dog to you when you are watching television or sitting on the couch. Incorporate the command into the dog's everyday life. You will see more progress by doing this.
NEVER, under any circumstances chase your dog when it does not respond to your command. If you chase the dog when it does not come, it is rewarded by you playing a game of chase with it. You chase the dog and it runs away. It stops to look back at you to make sure you are still playing with it. When you get to the point where you can almost touch your dog, it runs away again. You are frustrated that you can't catch your dog and the dog is having a great time playing DUMB HUMAN CHASE with you. When you finally do catch your dog, you scold it. NEVER SCOLD YOUR DOG WHEN YOU CATCH IT! Your dog will be thinking that it had a great time playing chase with you, but the end of the game is no fun, because the dog got into trouble BY GETTING CAUGHT. Remember to think like your dog, not like a human. Make Coming to you a game and your dog will want to play with you everyday. By rewarding the dog EVERY TIME it is near you, the dog will soon learn that it is more fun to be with you than anywhere else.

Dog aggression is any behavior meant to intimidate or harm a person or another animal. Growling, baring teeth, snarling, snapping and biting are all aggressive behaviors. Although aggressive behaviors are normal for dogs, they are generally unacceptable to humans. From a dog's perspective, there's always a reason for aggressive behavior. Because humans and dogs have different communication systems, misunderstandings can occur between the two species. A person may intend to be friendly, but a dog may perceive that person's behavior as threatening or intimidating. Dogs aren't schizophrenic, psychotic, crazy, or necessarily "vicious," when displaying aggressive behavior. Any dog who is not trained, that is, does not understand his subordinate position to you, will try to become "top dog". One example of this is when a dog repeatedly jumps up on you. An out of control dog is like a belligerent teenager, always pushing to test the boundaries. This behavior can be a prelude to aggressive behavior.
Because aggression is so complex, and because the potential consequences are so serious, we recommend that you get professional help from an animal behavior specialist if your dog is displaying aggressive behavior.The body language or signs of defensive aggression displayed by a puppy are: a prolonged direct stare, raised hackles, growling, showing his teeth, arching his body, and curling his tail between his legs.
If any of these signs are present during the following circumstances, you should be concerned and need to get professional help:
If your puppy or dog shows signs of aggression when people try to enter or leave your house or yard, you should be concerned and seek the help of professional behaviorist or a dog trainer with experience in dealing with aggressive behavior.BEGINNING SIGNS OF AGGRESSION
Young puppies up to the age of six months will sometimes act aggressively and even snap at or bite someone. These beginning signs of aggression are usually easy to correct because of the pup's age, size, and lack of maturity.Young dogs, six to ten months old, represent a different quality and degree of aggression but are still considered manageable and, through reconditioning, can be corrected.
A dog older than eighteen months, who is acting aggressively and has bitten someone, is much more difficult to recondition, and the aggressive behavior can sometimes not be changed.
No matter what solution one tries, there is no guarantee that a mature dog that has already bitten someone will never bite again. You have a potentially very dangerous situation on your hands!
Types Of Aggression
Dominance aggression is motivated by a challenge to a dog's social status or to his control of a social interaction. Dogs are social animals and view their human families as their social group or "pack". Based on the outcomes of social challenges among group members, a dominance hierarchy or "pecking order" is established.If your dog perceives his own ranking in the hierarchy to be higher than your rank, it is likely that he'll challenge you in certain situations. Because people don't always understand canine communication, you may inadvertently challenge your dog's social position. A dominantly aggressive dog may growl if he is disturbed when resting or sleeping, or if he is asked to give up a favorite spot, such as the couch or the bed. Physical restraint, even when done in a friendly manner, like hugging, may also cause your dog to respond aggressively. He could, also interpret reaching for your dog's collar, or reaching out over his head to pet him, as a challenge for dominance. Dominantly aggressive dogs are often described as "Jekyll and Hyde" because they can be very friendly when not challenged. Dominance aggression may be directed at people or at other animals. The most common reason for dogs in the same family to fight with each other is instability in the dominance hierarchy.
Fear-Motivated Aggression: Fear-motivated aggression is a defensive reaction and occurs when a dog believes he is in danger of being harmed. Remember that it's your dog's perception of the situation, not your actual intent, which determines your dog's response. For example, you may raise your arm to throw a ball, but your dog, perceiving this to be a threat, may bite you because he believes he is protecting himself from being hit. A dog may also be fearfully aggressive when approached by other dogs.
Protective, Territorial And Possessive Aggression: Protective, territorial and possessive aggression are all very similar, and involve the defense of valuable resources. Territorial aggression is usually associated with defense of property. However, your dog's sense of territory may extend well past the boundaries of "his" yard. For example, if you walk your dog regularly around the neighborhood and allow him to urine-mark, to him, his territory may be the entire block!
Protective Aggression: usually refers to aggression directed toward people or animals that a dog perceives as threats to his family, or pack. Dogs become possessively aggressive when defending their food, toys or other valued objects, such as Kleenex stolen from the trash!
Redirected Aggression: This type of aggression is relatively common, but is a behavior that pet owners may not always understand. If a dog is aroused into an aggressive response by a person or animal that he is prevented from attacking, he may redirect this aggression onto someone else. A common example occurs when two family dogs become excited, bark and growl in response to another dog passing through the front yard. The two dogs, confined behind a fence, may turn and attack each other because they can't attack the intruder.
Predation is usually considered to be a unique kind of aggressive behavior, because it's motivated by the intent to obtain food, and not primarily by the intent to harm or intimidate.
Individual Variation Dogs differ in their likelihood to show aggressive behavior in any particular situation. Some dogs tend to respond aggressively with very little stimulation. Others may be subjected to all kinds of threatening stimuli and events, and never attempt to bite. The difference in this threshold at which a dog displays aggressive behavior is influenced by both environmental and genetic factors. If this threshold is low, a dog will be more likely to bite. Raising the threshold makes a dog less likely to respond aggressively. This threshold can be raised using behavior modification techniques. How easily the threshold can be changed is influenced by the dog's gender, age, breed, general temperament, and by whether the appropriate behavior modification techniques are chosen and correctly implemented. Working with aggressive dogs can be potentially dangerous, and should be done only by, or under the guidance of, an experienced animal behavior professional that understands animal learning theory and behavior.
What You Can Do
What Not To Do
Not all aggression problems can be solved! Sometimes the kindest thing to do is have the dog euthanised to protect yourself, your family and the general public. The older the dog is before the aggression problems are addressed,the less chance you have of ever changing the behavior. If a dog older than 18 months has bitten someone once, the chances are 50% higher EACH TIME that the dog will bite again.
Assert your dominance! Get your dog trained! Teach him to respect you and others near and dear to you. If you are concerned about your dog's aggressiveness, seek the guidance of a professional dog trainer. In the meantime, confine or muzzle your dog whenever people are present.

Pat Miller has been working with dogs for over 40 years.
Pat was the one who taught the family dog to sit, lie down, and jump over broomsticks in the living room when she was a kid. Her career has always involved animals, first as a horse trainer in Wisconsin, then as a Humane Officer at the Marin Humane Society in California for 20 years, and most recently as a Certified Professional Dog Trainer and Behavior Consultant. After five years assisting nationally acclaimed obedience instructor Judie Howard of Arydith Obedience, she launched her own dog training company on the West Coast in 1996 and relocated the Peaceable Paws Dog and Puppy Training Center to Chattanooga, Tennessee in the year 2000, then to its current 80-acre campus in Fairplay, Maryland, in April 2004. Pat earned her CPDT-KA certification as a professional dog trainer from the Certification Council for Professional Dog Trainers in September 2001, making her one of only 136 trainers in the world to do so, and her CBCC-KA certification a few years later.
Pat is also a freelance writer and author who contributes articles on dog behavior and training to The Whole Dog Journal on a regular basis. She also serves as the Training Editor for The Whole Dog Journal. Her first dog training book, The Power of Positive Dog Training, was published in August 2001 by Howell Book House and has been on Amazon.com’s «Best Selling Dog Training Books» list since January 2002. Positive Perspectives, Positive Perspectives 2, Play With Your Dog, Do-Over Dogs, How to Foster Dogs, and Beware of the Dog: Positive Solutions for Canine Aggression are her other books.
Pat began her long dog-training career using «old-fashioned» methods that relied on force-based tools and methods – jerks on the choke chain, harsh verbal corrections – and successfully earned numerous obedience titles with a variety of dogs, including a Rough Collie, a Bull Terrier, an Australian Kelpie, a Pomeranian, and Josie, her wonderful Terrier mix. Josie persuaded her to abandon force-free methods, and she is now fully committed to science-based, positive reinforcement training.
Pat lives in Fairplay with her husband Paul, two dogs (Sunny and Kaizen), three cats (Viva, Blue, and Monkey), four horses (Rafiki, Levi, Mikey, and Olivia), four chickens (Snap, Crackle, Pop, and Kellogg), and one pot-bellied pig (Snap, Crackle, Pop, and Kellogg) (Dexter). They also run Peaceable Pastures, a horse boarding facility.

Sadly, millions of potentially great dogs are euthanized at animal shelters in the united states every year, simply because no one took the time to train them, but you can make sure this doesn’t happen to your dog. Great dogs don’t happen by accident. When you see an owner playing in the park with a dog who is playful and exuberant yet at the same time attentive, responsive and obedient, you can be sure that the owner has spent lots of quality time with his dog. When you train your dog, you establish a powerful bond that helps to cement the relationship. This bond is the critical difference between an unfortunate dog who ends up at a shelter because her owner is moving and can’t keep her and a dog whose owner would live in his car or on the street before he would consider giving up his faithful, four-legged friend.
Every dog has the power to be great. Will yours it’s up to you. Both you and your dog bring the power to succeed in the training adventure you bring the power to teach. Your dog brings the power and eagerness to learn what you teach few couples get married intending to divorce later on. By the same token, no one adopts a dog with the intention of getting rid of her several weeks months or years down the road.
When you adopt a dog, you enter into a social contract, whether you buy one from a breeder, find a stray on the street rescue a puppy from a cardboard box in front of the supermarket or select a homeless hound from the local shelter. You agree to provide for your dog’s needs for the rest of her life in exchange for her companionship and unconditional love, given that unconditional love is pretty hard to come by in this world you’re getting the better end of this bargain. By far, if you want to uphold your part of the contract, you must teach your dog the social skills necessary for her to adapt to the human world. You need to teach her good manners. Training takes a commitment of time and energy, but it’s easier and more fun than you might think.
So why don’t more people train their dogs? Surely everyone wants a well-mannered, canine companion and a new dog owner’s intentions are usually good. Many dog owners make a genuine effort to train their dogs only to give up because they find that training is more work or harder than they had expected. Training, however, can be fun learning how to communicate with your dog can be a joyful and awe-inspiring experience of mutual empowerment. It doesn’t have to feel like work, especially now that a whole new generation of dog trainers are teaching with positive reinforcement methods.
Positive reinforcement, training opens the door to your dog’s mind. It gives you and your dog the keys to understanding each other’s alien cultures by receiving rewards for desired behaviors. Your dog learns how to choose to do the right thing, rather than just how to avoid doing the wrong thing. She learns how to think. As you train your dog, you create a relationship based on trust and understanding.
You will also be thrilled and amazed by your dog’s, unlimited learning, potential and positive attitude. She can learn at the speed of light and, if you choose to teach her, you will realize that she is capable of performing incredibly complex behaviors. If you want to use positive methods to train your dog for the precision of obedience, ring competition, high speed, agility or canine freestyle competitions, you can do that too. Both of you will have loads of fun in the process. Once upon a time, i trained dogs using traditional jerk and pull choke chain methods, and i was good at it.
My dogs won competitions, achieving scores in the upper 190s out of a possible perfect 200 points. My teachers insisted that a little pain was necessary and a small price for my dogs to pay in order to ensure that they would be well behaved. Good, canine citizens. I believed them, then i learned about positive training methods. I discovered that i don’t have to hurt my dogs to teach them.
I crossed over to the positive side of training whether you have never trained a dog before, or you too are thinking about becoming a crossover trainer. You are about to embark on an amazing journey open your eyes, your mind.

How regular grooming for dogs can improve your pet’s quality of life
In addition to making your dog look nice, grooming them is essential for maintaining their well-being and health. Dog Grooming regularly offers many advantages, far beyond their aesthetic value. The benefits of maintaining your dog’s cleanliness, grooming, and overall health are explored in this article.
1. Skin and Coat Health
Grooming regularly is important for the skin and coat of your pet. Brushing your dog’s fur will help remove any loose hairs, dirt or debris. You will keep your home more clean and reduce the chances of matting.
2. Allergy Reduction
Regular grooming can help reduce allergens in your home. If you bathe and brush your dog you will be removing loose hair, dander and possible irritants. The benefits are especially useful if anyone in your household suffers from allergies.
3. Early detection of problems
You can check on your dog’s wellbeing during a grooming appointment. By regularly checking your dog’s coat, ears, nose, and teeth you will be able to detect any issues. By examining your dog regularly, you can spot lumps and bumps as well rashes.
4. Improved Comfort
A regular trim of the nails is vital to grooming. An overgrown nail may be painful for your dog and cause it to have a bad gait. When your dog has properly trimmed nails, he can run and walk with comfort.
5. Dental Health
Too often, dental health is overlooked when it comes to your dog’s wellbeing. Brushing the teeth of your dog regularly will help to prevent problems such as dental decay, gum disease, and other issues. Dentists can charge you a lot of money for dental work and painful problems if they neglect your pet’s teeth.
6. Emotional Well-being
Both you and your canine companion will enjoy the experience of grooming. It is also a chance for positive interactions, building trust and strengthening your bond. Grooming your dog can be an enjoyable and relaxing experience.

April 26th 2016
Very minor success was had today when my friend responded to me and asked just how he might be able to help me get out of this rut I’ve been in. Unfortunately for me I fumbled it and missed his message, not only was this rude but it cost me time as well. Still, it could be worse…
I plan on telling him that I’ve had trouble sticking to a schedule recently and would like him to help me adhering to it, as well as helping my set out a list of goals that he can help me out with until I can fulfill them under my own steam, certainly my main vice at the moment. He could say no, which of course would knock me back a step but it’s not completely out of my reach to ask for the help of a life coach, that might even be a better option.
I’d still rather my friend help though.
Within the realm of reality though I think it would be prudent to try to make things work with my mate first, no need to go planning ‘that’ far ahead, I mean he’s already agreed to help, so I’ll talk to him tomorrow and make sure that he’s on the same page as me on this whole matter.
In other news I’ve got a new pet project, quite literally. Recently I’ve seen a new cat in my street, it seems to have become friends with the cat that’s adopted and, to say the least, this cat looks like its seen better days. After inspection of the feline I’m quite happy to call it a stray, he/she has no collar and is in poor fettle. I just can’t in good conscience allow it to remain like that…
I don’t have any expendable income at the moment, but I’m not going to let that stop me, there’s no excuse for me not to work harder and try to find a source of income when the welfare of an animal is at stake.
The workup goes as follows:
- De flea and worm said cat (should any be present)
- Tidy him/her up, make sure that it’s coat is well kept
- Make sure I check that they’re chipped, and if not, get them chipped.
- Given the state of the cat, file for ownership or simply adopt it.
Until all of these are done, I’m not content to call the cat mine, but in equal measure, I’m not content to have the cat suffer through the wind and rain of the sping-summer transition, so they’ll just have to get used to the cat bed in the kitchen for now- I don’t need fleas in my living room.
That cat deserves as good a life as the cat that’s adopted me has and I hope to give it that.
Sue me, I’ve got a soft spot for animals.

This handsome gift volume brings together a miscellany of anecdotes, facts, quotable quotes, and interesting stories that celebrate the beloved cat in all its guises.

Lives of cats and men intertwined long ago. People worshiped cats like gods, full of superstition they were afraid of feline luminous eyes in the dark, asked for their help in protecting houses from rodents and adored them as their best friends, while painters and sculptors could not help admiring cat's grace which they considered perfect.

The history of domestic cat may stretch back even further, as 8,000 year-old bone of humans and cats were found buried together on the island of Cyprus. Cats are social, extroverted cats that love human companionship and like being part of whatever's going on. They often attach strongly to one person, demanding constant attention from that person.

Feline influenza is an infectious disease that affects the upper respiratory tract and clinical signs usually appear within 1 to 3 days. Feline influenza virus (influenza type A) is the virus under the family Orthomyxoviridae (a group of RNA viruses). Influenza virus A infects humans, other mammals, and birds, and causes all flu pandemics. Its ability to cross the species barrier without prior adaptation and to infect many mammal species including cat, has raised concerns about a new influenza pandemic. Influenza type A has been long absent from the list of infectious diseases considered as possibilities in dogs and cats. With the discovery that avian influenza H5N1 can infect cats and dogs, small animal veterinarians have an important role to play in detection of influenza virus strains that may become zoonotic. In cats, the clinical signs...

It all started when Tim Petersen and his two sons, wanted to feed their own pets something decent. Not the typical pet food with added fillers and emulsifiers – things that could actually compromise the health of pets.
The formulation of our diets took years, but we figure it was worth the wait, because…well, we love our pets. And dogs and cats love meat. So our line of canned dog and cat food is 96% meat. That’s a lot of meat. For good measure, we threw in some vitamins and minerals dogs and cats need. Zinc, copper and iron. Yep. We were pretty proud.
But even we were surprised when we introduced our new Wild Calling canned dog and cat food. We didn’t expect re-orders so fast. We didn’t expect distributors to be calling us. But that’s what happened. It was like a stampede. Maybe we hit a nerve. Maybe we found a niche in the industry. Maybe we’re the wildest pet food company out there.

The Complete Koi CBD Dog Treats Review
Cannabidiol (CBD) and other cannabinoids affect the endocannabinoid system (ECS). Intriguingly, this system is not just present and important in humans, but in other animals, too. This explains why there is a growing market for CBD products for pets, such as these soft chew from Koi CBD.
You may be wondering why you cannot just give any CBD product to your dog. While the CBD is the same in products for humans and pets, the other ingredients found in a pet product are veterinarian-formulated. This ensures that they are safe for consumption by your furry friend.
The biological systems in dogs are different and more sensitive to those in humans. By giving them products made specifically for pets, you’re just acting in their best interests.
Ingredients used in Koi CBD Soft Chews
These chews have a chicken and natural bacon flavor, which has been made entirely with natural ingredients. This product is created with organically-grown hemp, and is non-GMO.
True Spectrum CBD, without THC
The hemp extract used in these Koi CBD Soft Chews is True spectrum, and therefore contains all the beneficial properties found in hemp. This means that as well as getting a dose of CBD, your dog may also get some extra help from cannabinoids such as cannabidivarin (CBDV). CBDV is noted for its anti-seizure and anti-nausea qualities.
However, despite having full-spectrum qualities, there is no THC whatsoever in these chews. Some pet products for humans have trace amounts of THC (up to 0.3% in hemp products). But THC is a potent cannabinoid with brain-altering effects. We have much less research on how dogs respond to THC, even in very small doses. That’s why it’s best not to expose them to any THC at all.
Why Soft Chews are the best way to give CBD to your dog
Giving CBD to your dog doesn’t have to be a time-consuming and frustrating experience. Most pet owners will know about the difficulties of getting their cat or dog to keep still and take their medication.
With Koi CBD Soft Chews, this problem is taken care of. These pet treats have been designed with only the best ingredients. The chicken and bacon dominates the flavor, and totally covers up the hempy CBD oil. Either add a treat or two in with your pet’s meal, or just give them out separately.
How CBD products can improve your pet’s health
You can give Koi CBD soft chews to your pet as a treat or dietary supplement, and also as a natural, plant-based treatment for ailments and illnesses that they may be suffering with.
Before we get into the details, please remember that these statements have not been evaluated by the FDA. This article is purely informational, and not intended to help diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any medical conditions. If your pet is ill, please get medical assistance.
CBD dog treats for anxiety
Many dogs endure periods of anxiety at various points in their life. Short bouts of anxiety tend to be due to loud, frightening or unfamiliar noises. Fireworks are notorious with pet owners, and some dogs can get nervous around new people. More serious anxiety can be caused by separation from an owner, or relocating.
Signs of pet distress can manifest themselves in a few ways. Excessive barking and aggression is often indicative of anxiety, particularly in dogs who do not usually exhibit such behavior. An anxious dog may be found pacing around or panting more than normal. However, if your dog is simply not behaving like their natural self, this could signify a problem.
Koi CBD Soft Chews help to calm a dog down by resetting the chemistry in their brain. This has the effect of stopping overfiring in the brain, which can cause anxiety. For short-term anxiety, the occasional chew should suffice. However, for long-term benefits, a more regular treatment plan may be needed.
CBD for dog seizures
Lots of research on CBD’s anti-epileptic and anti-seizure effects has been carried out in humans. It seems that dogs may also benefit from these properties. It is estimated that as many in one and 20 dogs experience seizures. Hence, there is great demand among pet owners for an anti-seizure treatment, and one with few side effects.
CBD fits the bill. However, it’s important that if you are going to use CBD for such a delicate matter, that you use an authentic product. With Koi CBD’s transparent approach to business, they are a brand that you can put your faith in.
CBD benefits for dogs in pain
Many of the conditions that affect humans also affect dogs, with pain one of the most common symptoms experienced. Prolonged pain can have devastating effects on mood and energy levels. Appetite may also decline, and other factors all make for a poorer quality of life.
CBD is an effective pain-reliever in dogs, making them less sensitive to discomfort. This dampening effect comes from the influence of the ECS in the central nervous system. In addition to general pain, CBD can also help to ease inflammatory conditions in dogs, such as arthritis.
Finding the right CBD dosage for dogs
When giving CBD to your dog, exercise the same caution that you did when taking it yourself for the first time. Each chew has 2.5mg of CBD, which is a good dose for a smaller dog. With bigger dogs, you can increase the dosage somewhat, but don’t go overboard. As they are much smaller than humans, dogs don’t need as much CBD to get the therapeutic effects.
As CBD use becomes more widespread among humans, we can expect the same to happen with our pets. Demand for natural alternatives to pharmaceutical meds is on the increase. And with CBD products like Koi CBD Soft Chews, pet owners have a safe, plant-based solution.

A lot of things seem to find their way into the drain, but you wouldn’t expect to find three kittens in there! A feral mother and her six kittens were discovered when someone heard meowing coming from the drainpipe.
Rescuer Alison Gambles, who works for Cats Protection said: “We had a report from a local resident who could hear meowing coming from the drain in the ground, beneath the guttering and under the grate. I went to have a look and found three of the kittens with their mother hiding under the flowerbeds.
“A while later, there was still the sound of meowing and after a lot of rummaging around, we found three more inside the drainpipe, one of which was almost wedged inside the U-bend. As the kittens had just reached the age when they could crawl, we can only guess that they had been born under the surrounding shrubbery and had fallen into the drain.
“The mother had been a feral stray and was only aged around six months herself. She was clearly a devoted mother and although she couldn’t reach into the drain to get her kittens out, she hadn’t left them.
“She had done a terrific job raising six kittens, as they were in remarkably good condition. They all needed flea treatment and lots of socialising to get them used to people, but now they are all happy, healthy kittens.
“It is very lucky there had not been significant rainfall, as the water from the guttering could easily have drowned them. And it was fortunate that a local resident had heard them, as they would have soon become dehydrated and would not have survived if left much longer.”
Three kittens have already found forever homes and mum, Amy, has since been neutered and has found a new owner, but three kittens are still looking for homes. The three black and white kittens – Joseph, Noah and Magdalena – are now eight-weeks-old and currently at Cat’s Protection’s Cat Rescue Adoption Centre, in Chelwood Gate. Cats Protection helps to create a better future for feral cats like Amy by neutering them.
Luckily her kittens were found whilst they were young enough to be socialised and can now be rehomed. Many feral and stray cats have very bleak and unhappy lives, and the work that Cats Protection does is vital to their wellbeing.
If you wanted to find out more about adopting Joseph, Noah or Magdalena, you can email [email protected] or visit the centre in Chelwood Gate, on the A275 between Wych Cross and Danehill. To find out more, visit Mid Sussex Times to read the full story.
In the meantime, if you have any issues with your drains, you can give the experts at Drain Doctor a call – especially if you can hear any meowing!

If your cat is hiding or fleeing, then it has anxiety. If this is a sudden change in demeanor, there will be a fear-based explanation. If a cat is suddenly scared of everything, consider if anything in its life is different. Disruption to routine makes a cat skittish.
What Does It Mean When Your Cats Tail Vibrates or Shakes?
Your cat may have encountered a predator and no longer feels safe. Unexpected loud noises will make a cat fearful. Your cat could also be sick or injured.
Managing the needs of a scared cat requires a calm and relaxed owner. Owner anxiety will make the cat even more jittery. You must calm the cat down, but how you approach this depends on the source of the problem. Cats project an image of confidence and fearlessness. This is not always the case. Many cats are very nervous by nature. Your cat is skilled at hiding this fear and trepidation.
Cats do not like anybody to know that they are afraid. A previously brave cat can become nervous seemingly overnight. Potential explanations for this change in demeanor include:.
Trembling in Cats
If your cat has hurt itself, you may not know. Cats do all they can to disguise signs of physical injury. Your cat worries that injury is seen as a weakness. This could lead to the cat losing territory or dominant status.It is normal to see your cat quiver as he dreams while sleeping, and you may notice him shake his head from time to time.
However, involuntary seizure-like movements can be scary for both you and your cat. There are several conditions that could cause your cat to have involuntary, seizure-like movements:.
First, it is important to make sure that your cat has not been exposed to any poison that might be causing the tremors. If so, see a vet immediately. If your cat has not eaten for an extended period of time, her blood sugar can drop, resulting in hypoglycemia. However, this condition can occur even if your cat eats regularly, and can be a sign of feline diabetes and needs to be treated by your vet. If your cat eats properly yet still experiences trembling, see your vet.
Loss of kidney function over time can cause a buildup of protein and waste products in the bloodstream, which can cause appetite loss, general malaise and, if untreated, kidney failure. Kidney failure can cause your cat to experience seizures. Kittens, especially newborns, cannot maintain their own body temperatures. Cats with health issues may also experience hypothermia.
It is important to use a heated blanket or heating pad to encourage warmth while you contact your vet. Hyperthermia can be caused by some very serious issues: uncontrolled fever, poisoning, and epilepsy. Cats are considered to have a fever any time their body temperature rises above Often a virus or underlying infection is the cause of the high fever and should be treated by a vet. Your cat may be experiencing a phobia, social issues with another pet.
Anxiety and stress may also cause your cat to tremble.
An injury, tumors, and other internal illnesses may cause your cat to shake. A veterinarian should determine that there are no underlying issues that are causing your cat to tremble. Shock is a serious issue, but often is secondary to another illness, accident, or some other trauma.
If your cat is shaking and has pale gums, cold limbs and a rapid heart rate, see your vet immediately. Unfortunately, curious cats sometimes come in contact with toxic plants, chemicals, or other poisonous materials.
If you suspect your cat has ingested something, is trembling, and possibly vomiting, see your vet immediately. If you suspect that your cat may have low blood sugar hypoglycemia and the cat is unable to eat on her own, you may use a dropper to give her some honey or maple sugar; this will quickly cause her glucose to come back up. However, if you notice hypoglycemia occurring on a regular basis, you need to take your cat in for some blood tests. Hypothermia can be fatal in kittens or sickly adult cats.
Your vet will need to treat the underlying cause of the hypothermia.If you are a cat lover, you are probably tuned in to the way your cat acts and what is normal for her. If your cat seems off balance or staggers when he tries to walk, it is very alarming. There are many causes for such abnormal behavior and it sometimes helps to know some of the possibilities. Staggering or falling over can be called ataxia. The inability to maintain a normal upright posture is often a neurologic problem.
The imbalance can be accompanied by other signs that will help you and your veterinarian narrow down the cause. These things can be secondary to infectious processes or just a mishap in development.
An example of developmental disorder causing this type of symptom in cats can occur when a mother cat becomes infected with feline panleukopenia a very contagious virus that we routinely vaccinate for during her pregnancy. This virus stunts growth of the cerebellum in the gestating kittens and leads to a condition known as Cerebellar Hypoplasia. The signs are usually noticed in young kittens. Affected kittens may stagger and tremble, but are not otherwise ill and mild cases can live a normal life span as a protected pet.
Sometimes the process is just too severe for the kitten to lead any semblence of normal life and humane euthanasia is the only option. A vet can help advise you if your kitten suffers from Cerebellar Hypoplasia. Poisoning and toxic ingestion can also lead to staggering and ataxia.
Toxicity can come from external sources, like toxic plants or chemicals, but advanced metabolic disease can present like a toxicity because of the imbalance of chemicals inside the body. If there is any possibility that your cat could have been exposed to one of these toxins, take her to your veterinarian right away and explain the possibility of exposure. If you are certain that your cat could not have been exposed, see a veterinarian anyway to rule out metabolic toxicities.
Encephalitis inflammation of the brain can also occur in cats. Like any inflammation, it can be infectious, parasitic or auto-immune. If no one is able to figure out the exact etiology, it is called idiopathic. Cats suffering from encephalitis are very ill, often progressing from uncoordinated movements to seizures and unresponsiveness.
Cats that are stumbling, acting very sick with fever and seem to be worsening are an emergency. They should be rushed to a veterinarian immediately and if it is after-hours, go to the animal ER. Idiopathic Vestibular Disease is another condition in which the exact mechanism is not fully understood.If you think you have a scared cat, or a depressed or nervous cat then you could be right, cats can suffer from stress and anxiety just like the rest of us!
Most of us are aware of how fear and anxiety can impact on our own lives and physical health. Cats love routine, familiarity and the feeling of security, so when they perceive that things are not how they usually are then they can feel anxious or even depressed, just like we can. So to help your scared cat be happy again, try following the tips and advice on these pages.
Identify which simple changes you could make to prevent and alleviate their feline fears. After all, a worry-free kitty means a worry-free kitty owner! That way we can help our pet return to being a healthy and happy cat. Did you know that cats can also purr when stressed or when they are in pain which surprises a lot of people. It is believed that this is a natural mechanism that they will use to try to comfort themselves.
So it is not unusual for a scared cat to spend a lot of time purring when there is no apparent reason for it. Feliway is a well known product that mimics the natural pheromones in a cats scent helping them to feel safe and secure. Relaxing herbal supplement drops such as Calm Care are also available. Calm Care. Products such as these have been designed to help cats relax during periods of stress or change, allowing them to adjust to new situations and learning to calm down until things return to normal.
In most cases your cat will display symptoms of stress for a short period of time and with a little help from us, return to normal by themselves.
This is because it is important to be able to rule out any underlying medical conditions that may be causing the problem. Environmental Causes:. Emotional causes:.
Physical causes:. There can be many other causes, but this should be a long enough list to get you thinking about what might be creating your cats stress or anxiety, causing tham to be a nervous, depressed or scared cat. As cat owners we must take responsibility in making sure that we do not cause our cats stress and to minimize anything which could make your pet anxious.
Always follow the advice of your vet, or you could consult a specialist in cat behavior problems if your cat does not recover over time. They can often tell if we are sad, depressed, unwell or angry. If you are afraid during a thunderstorm or when fireworks are going off outside, your cat will pick up on the feelings of fear you are giving off. So try to act confident and as if everything is normal.
Distraction can be a much better option, for instance a game with a piece of string or feather can help to take the cats mind off of the cause of their fear. In extreme cases prescribed medication may be necessary and your vet is best placed to advise about this.

Comments Have your say about what you just read!In part I of this articlewe discussed the common complaints of vomiting, diarrhea and limping, and when you should panic—or, more often, not—when you note these signs in your pet.
Pets may shiver or shake for many reasons—pain, fear, anxiety, nerves, or simply being too cold. We often see dogs shiver and shake during thunderstorms or July 4th fireworks. The difficulty here is trying to determine whether or not the degree of pain, or the source of pain, should be of concern enough to panic and take your pooch or kitty straight to your veterinarian or to an emergency facility. Often this is a judgment call, but here are a few guidelines.
If the shivering and shaking is accompanied by excessive panting, this is usually a sign of stress, and more intense pain or discomfort. If the subtle pain symptoms persist, see your veterinarian for some more specific diagnostics or for more aggressive treatment.
This is often one of the more challenging symptoms because the presentation is often very subtle, and can mean so many different things.
A normal temperature for your dog or cat is somewhere between If his or her temperature is over We also see pets act a bit too mellow because of psychological issues a change in their routines or schedules, changes in your routine or schedule, the loss of another family pet, etc. Dogs and cats can actually exhibit signs of depression, and it often manifests as lethargy.

This instinctive behavior stems from their wild ancestors, when any sign of weakness could mean the difference between life and death.
By the time a cat shows unmistakable signs of mouth pain, such as drooling or teeth chattering, dental problems usually are well advanced. If you notice your cat avoiding his dry cat food, chewing on only one side of his mouth, dropping food from his mouth while eating also called quiddingor vomiting unchewed food, you might be seeing signs of a cat in pain.Cats are so funny you will die laughing - Funny cat compilation
Drooling while eating can signal oral problems in cats. Drooling can be caused by gingivitis in cats as well as cervical line lesions, or any other sources of dental pain. Chattering is when the jaw shakes or quivers. This painful condition causes cavity-like holes in the teeth, eats teeth away or turns tooth roots to bone. Chattering typically happens when a cat eats, washes his face or grooms.
It is caused by shooting pain from the tooth root and can be loud enough to hear with your ears. Usually seen with acute pain, a cat may try to get the pain out of his mouth by pawing at the mouth. While head shaking or head tilts commonly are associated with ear problems, a cat in pain from dental disease may also shake his head excessively or tilt his head to the side of the mouth where the problem exists.
If head shaking happens in conjunction with drooling or another sign on this list, dental problems are the prime suspects.
Resorptive lesions and gingivitis can be so painful that a cat who normally enjoys being pet on the head or scratched on the chin can become head shy or aggressive when touched. For example, if your normally sweet-tempered Maine Coon unexpectedly bites you when you go to rub his face, that abnormal aggressive behavior might be a reaction to pain.
Your feline friend will benefit greatly from regular preventive cat dental care at home.

Just a quick glance at your cat's tail -- whether it's quivering, vibrating or aggressively thrashing -- can tell you a lot about her emotions. If your cat's tail is quivering so rapidly that it appears to be vibrating, that often means annoyance, especially if you notice her doing this quickly and out of the blue.
This quick shaking can also mean that your cat is feeling especially on edge and nervous about something. When a cat's tail seems to be whipping and shaking in a more aggressive and exaggerated manner, that can be a sign that she's angry about something. A really rapidly moving tail usually signifies an especially upset feline. The movement could also mean that she's feeling unsettled and confused -- and she really isn't happy about it.
Exercise caution and your wisest judgment around your cat when she's feeling this way. She might be feeling defensive against perceived -- or even real -- predators. If you shock her or go near her quickly, you could risk coming into close contact with her claws or even her mouth -- Yikes. Leave your angry cat alone and allow her some time and space to cool off. Although a tail in motion isn't usually a positive sign, exceptions do exist.
For instance, if your fluffball's tail is shooting straight up into the air while it's vibrating and shaking, she is probably feeling giddy about something. If your cat reacts this way upon seeing you, take it as a huge compliment.
After all, cats never lie about their emotions -- one of the greatest things about them. If you observe just the upper portion of your pet's tail shaking, that could mean she's frustrated, restless or impatient about something. Maybe she's stressed out that you closed the blinds and she can't watch the chirping birds outside all day, for example. Perhaps she's waiting for you to play "catch the catnip-stuffed ball" with her and you're taking longer than usual to get ready.

I just got back from World Fantasy (I had a very good time, but like many people, I want to help call attention to the issue of disability and accessibility at ALL cons-read this post from Mari Ness if you haven’t.)
At any rate, I thought I would offer up a cartoon I drew almost exactly 7 years ago, when we had cats instead of kids. The problem with cats is they want to sleep and they want to make you sleep. Writers should really have dogs. I’m told dogs make you get up and go on walks in the morning. Cats make you take naps in the afternoon. You can see why I like cats.
Despite their sleep-making tendencies, I do miss that cat, who was a good cat and lived a good, full cat life. I also miss those pj pants. We still have that futon, though. I think I am currently wearing that shirt.
