If we could talk to dogs, I imagine the conversations would be fascinating and reveal a lot about their perspectives on the world. They’d likely communicate their desires, like when they’re hungry, uncomfortable, or excited. They might tell us what they enjoy or dislike about their environment and routines. They could even share how they interpret our emotions, as dogs are incredibly perceptive of human moods.

Dogs might have simpler, direct communication, driven by instinct and emotion, and could ask for more walks, playtime, or just more attention. Imagine the loyalty and affection they already express physically, turned into words. They could also describe the things they notice with their heightened senses—smells, sounds, and movements we aren’t aware of.

What would you ask a dog if you could?

DID YOU KNOW⁉️

Most plastic dog toys do not intentionally contain pesticides. However, some can release harmful chemicals, such as phthalates, BPA (bisphenol A), and other potentially toxic compounds, which are used in plastic manufacturing. These chemicals could be ingested if your dog chews on the toy, particularly if the toy is made of low-quality materials.

There have been concerns about dog toys made from plastic or vinyl that might contain toxic substances, but regulation in this area can vary widely depending on where the toys are manufactured. Always look for dog toys labeled as non-toxic, BPA-free, and made with food-grade materials to reduce the risk of exposure to harmful substances.

If you’re concerned, consider choosing toys made from natural rubber, organic materials, or those specifically tested for safety.

🔸DOBERMANNS AUSTRALIA TICK PREVENTION PLAN🔸

Preventing ticks in your garden involves several steps to reduce their population and limit your exposure to them. Here are some effective methods:
________________

Maintain Your Lawn

Mow the lawn regularly:
Ticks thrive in tall grass and overgrown areas. Keeping your lawn trimmed reduces their preferred habitat.

Clear brush and weeds:

Removing leaf litter, tall grass, and weeds around your yard perimeter can minimize areas where ticks hide.
_________________

Create a Tick Barrier

Use wood chips or gravel:

Create a 3-foot-wide barrier of wood chips or gravel between wooded areas and your lawn to prevent ticks from moving into your yard.

Keep play areas and patios away from
bushes and woods:

Ticks are most likely to be in areas of dense vegetation, so keeping high-traffic areas of your yard away from these places helps.
___________________

Control Wildlife Access

Deer and rodents:

Ticks often travel on deer, mice, and other wildlife. To deter these animals, use deer fencing or repellents, and clear rodent habitats by sealing up possible nesting sites like woodpiles.

Install bird feeders away from your home:Birds can carry ticks, so keeping feeders away from your home and places you frequent can reduce tick encounters.
_____________________

Use Tick-Repelling Plants

Plant tick-repellent species:

Lavender, sage, rosemary, and marigolds can help deter ticks, as they dislike the strong smells these plants produce.
_______________________
Apply Tick Control Products

Use pesticides:

You can apply eco-friendly acaricides to areas where ticks are likely to gather, such as the perimeter of your yard or under trees.
Nematodes: These microscopic organisms can be applied to your soil to kill tick larvae and nymphs.
____________

6. Manage Pets

Tick prevention for pets:

Regularly check pets for ticks and use veterinary-approved tick preventatives to reduce the risk of bringing ticks into your yard.

By combining these methods, you can significantly reduce tick populations in your garden and protect yourself and your family from tick-borne diseases.

Breeders sell pups with the typical statement of “Our original German bloodlines that we’ve bred from and with for 20 plus years, are genetically tested and good to go!….

So why are Dobermanns dying at such a young / average age of 8+ years of DCM 1/2 and cancers!?

What’s going wrong and what should/ could change!?

If this happened with your pup, share your story here!?

Ensuring the health of a Doberman puppy is crucial, as it lays the foundation for the dog's long-term well-being. Here are key aspects to focus on for a puppy Doberman’s health:

Nutrition.
________
Proper diet is essential for growth and development. Doberman puppies need a balanced diet rich in high-quality proteins, fats, vitamins, and minerals to support their rapid growth and energy needs. Be mindful of portion sizes and avoid overfeeding to prevent obesity and joint issues.

Vaccinations.
___________
Like all puppies, Dobermans need a strict vaccination schedule to protect them from common diseases like distemper, parvovirus, and rabies. This is essential for building a strong immune system.

Deworming.
__________
Regular deworming is necessary for controlling parasites like roundworms and hookworms, which can harm a puppy’s digestive system and overall health.

Exercise.
___________
While Dobermans are an active breed, it’s important not to over-exercise them while they’re growing. Their joints and bones are still developing, so short, gentle play sessions are ideal to avoid injury.

Training and Socialization.
______________________
Mental stimulation and socialization are important for a puppy's overall health. Early training helps prevent behavioral issues later, while socialization reduces anxiety and aggression.

Dental Health.
____________
Regular dental care from an early age helps prevent gum disease and tooth loss. Offer chew toys and, if possible, start brushing their teeth to promote good oral hygiene.

Veterinary Checkups.
__________________
Regular vet visits ensure that your Doberman puppy is growing properly and allows for early detection of potential health issues, such as hip dysplasia or cardiac conditions, which can affect Dobermans.

By providing proper care and attention during their EARLY months, you can help ensure your Doberman grows into a healthy and well-adjusted adult dog.

All of this can be complete and on going support is provided specifically with Sydney Animal Hospitals and RSPCA NSW

Please understand this‼️

Veterinarians that DO scan microchips but do NOT immediately check main registries prior to conducting any type of service upon visitation to prove ownership of the animal bought in on the day, several negative consequences can arise if the animal bought in is stolen or listed as lost…..

Delayed Reunification.
___________________
The primary purpose of microchips is to reunite lost pets with their owners. If a vet doesn’t scan for a microchip, the dog may not be identified quickly, leading to delays in reuniting the dog with its rightful owner.

Increased Burden on Shelters.
_________________________
Without scanning for microchips, dogs found by good Samaritans or authorities may end up in shelters. This places additional pressure on already overcrowded shelters, as the dogs will remain there longer than necessary.

Facilitation of Pet Theft.
____________________
If stolen pets are not scanned for microchips during routine veterinary visits, it allows the thief to claim ownership of the pet. This enables the continued unlawful possession of the stolen dog without detection.

Owner Distress.
_________________
For pet owners, losing a dog can be an emotional ordeal. If veterinarians fail to check microchips, owners may lose hope of ever being reunited with their pet, leading to emotional and psychological distress.

Legal Implications.
________________
Many regions have laws requiring that vets check for microchips, especially if they suspect a pet may be lost or stolen. Not scanning a dog could potentially breach legal obligations and raise liability issues.

Missed Opportunity for Responsible Ownership.
_________________________________________
Scanning for microchips also ensures that pets receive proper medical care, as records tied to the chip can provide a history of treatments or conditions that vets should be aware of when treating the animal.

In summary, failing to scan microchips and check the main registries can massively impede the return of lost pets, perpetuate pet theft, and have broader consequences for animal welfare.

Change needs to happen, an it’s started here!

Topic : NSW lost dog correct procedure.

In New South Wales (NSW), Australia, if you find a lost dog, it's important to follow proper legal procedures.

Handing the dog back to someone who claims to be the owner without verifying their identity or ownership could cause major issues, however the law DOES outline specific steps that MUST be taken to ensure the dog's safety and proper return.

Here are the legal guidelines‼️

•Notify authorities•
________________

In NSW, you're legally required to notify your local council, a local vet, or an animal welfare organization (such as the RSPCA) within 72 hours of finding a lost dog. They can help identify the dog's owner using the dog's microchip information or other identification methods.

•Microchip scan•
_______________
Most pets in NSW are required to be microchipped. A vet or animal shelter can scan the dog for a microchip to verify the owner’s identity.

•Avoid disputes•
______________

Handing the dog back to someone without verifying their ownership could lead to disputes if the person is not the actual owner. By reporting the dog to authorities, you protect both yourself and the dog by ensuring it is returned to its rightful owner.

While it's not illegal to return a dog directly to someone claiming to be the owner, it's highly advisable to follow these steps to avoid legal or ethical complications.

Australian Animal Protection Society

A plan for Victoria’s new animal care and protection laws has been released for public feedback.

The new laws would recognise animal sentience and set minimum care requirements for animals in Victorian law for the first time. The compliance and enforcement toolkit would be expanded, and a new offence introduced for the most serious types of cruelty to animals.

Feedback on the plan will inform the development of draft legislation for a new Act to replace the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act 1986.
Read the plan, complete the survey or make a submission by midnight Sunday 16 October.
