SPOED
Omdat we vandaag oude senior Lucky zijn verloren willen wij vragen om Senior Samy te delen, omdat tijd beperkt is en hoe mooi is het om die tijd weer als huishond te ervaren❤️
Vandaag ook eerder gedeeld en een paar weken terug maar toch nog een keer de vraag...

Kijk in die prachtige kijkers..en je ziet niks anders dan liefde❤️

Hij was wel geliefd maar zijn baasje in Roemenië kon niet meer...

Lees zijn verhaal en geef hem een kans❤️

Delen graag..........💔
13 jaar....Roemenië ....oud mannetje in overvolle opvang nadat zijn baasje niet meer de kracht had om voor hem te zorgen....wilde familie van haar hem afstaan aan de shelter of op straat dumpen en voor dood achterlaten.

Lees zijn verhaal want de tijd tikt door😢
Deze lieve oudere vriend van ongeveer 13 jaar heeft heel zijn leven een baasje gehad en leefde in huis in Roemenië.
Zijn vrouwtje (baasje) werd ziek en kan niet meer voor hem zorgen.
Lichamelijk geen optie meer....
Wat dan....want hij zit in Roemenië 😢😢

De familie lieten hem in de tuin.

Oud en jaren in huis geleefd en dan ineens snachts alleen in de tuin....
Maar dat was niet alles...ze wilde hem uiteindelijk op straat zetten of naar de shelter te brengen💔💔💔

Beide zou het zijn dood worden....😢😢

Mirela heeft samen met Natalie gezorgd dat hij bij Natalie kan, hij mag daar in huis maar zoveel honden en katten, wij allemaal gunnen hem een rustige oude dag.

En deze lieverd verdiend een eigen plek met rust om zich heen.

Hij is rond de 40 cm
Reu
Hij gaat naar de dierenarts toe voor een uitgebreide check met bloedtesten en wordt gevaccineerd.
Hij is gecastreerd

Mocht je hem nog een paar mooie jaren willen geven, stuur dan een mail naar [email protected]

It can be all too easy to look at a behaviour, particularly one that we find problematic, as an isolated thing that just occurs, or is put down to false and outdated ideas like 'dominance' or 'stubbornness'.

Think of behaviour as a symptom - underlying that behaviour there is an emotion driving that behaviour. Behaviours don't happen just 'because', there is always a reason for them and so it's up to us to learn how to understand what they are trying to tell us so we can work out what that emotion is.

And at the root of it all there will be a need. Something that is causing the dog to feel that particular emotion and so lead them to show the behaviour that we are seeing. Once we have discovered the emotion the dog is feeling, we can work out what the dog needs and help them to get whatever that may be.

The three pictures here give an example:

Behaviour: the dog is barking at something. If you look at their posture and body language the body is leaning back, away from what they are barking at. The ears are back, whiskers flared, and eyes fixed on something. The front paw is slightly lifted and there is a back paw in the air, and the back end of the dog may be lowered towards the ground a little.

Emotion: what the overall picture of the body language is telling us is that the dog is scared of the thing they are barking at, so the emotion they are feeling is fear.

Need: What this dog needs is immediate space from the thing that is bothering them, so they can feel relief from that fear and feel safer again. What they need going on is an increased feeling of safety and security, more trust in us to help them if they need it or get them out of a situation if it's too much for them.

When we can understand the need and emotion driving the behaviour we can understand our dogs far better and see where they need our help.

🔥🐾 Too Hot to Walk Your Dog? Think Again! 🐶☀️

Keep your four-legged friend safe this summer by knowing when it’s too hot for walkies! 🥵🐕

🌡️ 20–24°C
⚠️ Be cautious! Keep walks short, stick to shady spots 🌳, and make sure your pup stays well hydrated 💧.

🌡️ 25–29°C
❗ Risky temperatures! Only venture out for a quick stroll in the shade—only if absolutely necessary! 🐾

🌡️30°C+
🚫 Far too hot for walkies! Stay indoors or let your dog relax in a cool, shaded area 🛋️🌬️.

📌 Important to remember:

🔹 Pavement test! If it’s too hot for your hand, it’s too hot for their paws. Tarmac can reach 51°C even when it’s just 21–26°C outside! 🥵🔥
🔹 Humidity counts! High humidity can make the heat feel even worse 🌫️
🔹 Breed & health: Puppies, older dogs, short-nosed breeds (like Pugs & Bulldogs), and dogs with health issues are at higher risk 🐕❤️

Let’s keep tails wagging safely this summer! 🐾💛

🐶🌞💦

Connection is absolutely central to being the best people for our dogs we can be. Understanding and empathy help us to see what they need and how we can meet those needs in any situation, and when we have both of those things between us, we have connection.

That connection can make training so much easier. Because we understand each other much better and are truly listening to each other, we can move in harmony as we go through the world.

In potentially scary or tricky situations, having a strong connection means that our dogs will trust us to help them and keep them safe. They will feel more able to listen to us and do what we ask of them to navigate the sitaution with a minimum of stress and difficulty.

How then do we go about making that connection?

We respect their choices as much as possible (in a dangerous situation we may have to manage their choices more for safety, but should try to make sure choices are respected outside of these situations).

We make sure their needs are met.

We help them to feel safe and secure.

Most important of all, we listen to them.

The importance of learning about canine communication and body language is often mentioned, and with very good reason. It is the central pillar of understanding our dogs, and so forging that connection.

Make the central focus of life with our dogs about connection, honouring them as the individuals they are and ensuring we give them agency and choice. While we need to be able to have our dogs under control when in public places, this is very different to controlling their lives. We have control over so much of their lives in this very human world, and so it is important to give them control of their own lives as much as possible.

Connection, not control.

We all know how important it is to keep our dogs and cats cool on warm days, but may not realise that it's just as important for small animals too ⛅

Small pets like rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, gerbils, and rats should be kept cool and hydrated during warm weather to prevent them from developing life-threatening heatstroke.

Signs of heatstroke in small pets:
- Drooling.
- Quick breaths.
- Struggling to breathe.
- Acting very sleepy or lethargic.
- Collapsing.
- Seizures.

It's also a good idea to keep on top of cleaning their enclosures to prevent flystrike or a build up of wet bedding and mouldy food 🐰🐰

[Visual description: An infographic titled: "Keeping small pets cool." It features tips such as: Keeping pets in the shade, offering safe watery fruits and vegetables (in moderation), swapping out plastic houses for something cooler like cardboard boxes, freezing a water bottle and wrapping it in a towel before placing it next to your pets' enclosure, placing a fan in their room but not pointed directly at them (making sure they can't nibble any wires), grooming long-haired or fluffy pets, refreshing their water every day, and putting a cool tile or empty ceramic bowl/tea cup in their enclosure for them to sit on/in.]

🐶🐾🐶🐾Most of us love a trip to the beach with our furry friends and it can be a wonderful place to go for a splash around etc, but we need to ensure that they remain safe whilst there.

There are a few things that we should be wary of when out and about at the seaside.
• Make sure that your trip is not during the hottest part of the day.
• Be careful of playing fetch in the sea as the dogs may ingest too much seawater which can make them ill or even be fatal. The signs of severe ingestion include weakness, diarrhoea, muscle tremors, and seizures
• If they are digging the sand, or grabbing their toy they make take in too much sand which can cause a blockage which will need urgent veterinary attention. The signs of this include vomiting, dehydration and abdominal pain.
• Watch them carefully to minimise the opportunity of them picking up things such as dead fish, fishing hooks, palm oil, jelly fish etc as all of them are dangerous and potentially fatal in some cases.
• Strong tides are very dangerous, so do keep an eye on your dog and the sea too.
• Be mindful of sunburn on your dog, along with overexertion and the temperature of the sand or stones you are walking on.

The beach is a wonderful place, but please do be careful.

For years, I’ve wanted to raise awareness about the simple but powerful act of leaving fresh water out for wildlife—ever since I read a heartfelt plea from a hedgehog rescuer urging people to help their prickly pals stay hydrated. It can save lives!

So, here it is—the result of my little obsession: a fun & helpful cartoon and downloadable mini poster available on my blog: https://shop.redandhowling.com/blogs/cartoons/make-s-splash-why-water-matter-to-our-furry-and-feathered-friends

Pentru Yoko si Yumi s-au deschis niste brate iubitoare, care le-au primit in foster in Olanda ❤️
Au invatat sa isi faca nevoile afara, invata sa mearga frumos in lesa, sunt cuminti, blande si bune.
Daca stiti pe cineva care locuieste in Olanda si ar dori sa adopte, dati un semn 🙏🌟

For Yoko and Yumi the world changed when they have been offered a lovely foster home in The Netherlands ❤️
They learned so many things in this short time: house trained, learning how to walk nicely on the leash, how to play and be a puppy - thing that is taken away from pups while in a shelter as there is no space to run, to be goofy, to explore...
They are beautiful and gentle and good pups.

If you know someone willing to adopt, you can contact us or Angelique Oort or Wiranda De Boer - they will guide you through the process of adoption.

And if you cannot adopt, please share them ❤️

☀️Pas op! Voor je het weet is het voor dieren te heet. ☀️

Deze dagen worden we getrakteerd op zomerse temperaturen. Dieren kunnen hun warmte moeilijker kwijt dan mensen. Daarnaast zijn ze afhankelijk van de (natuurlijke) omstandigheden waarin ze leven. Houd daarom een extra oogje op de dieren, en help ze waar nodig.

Zorg dat er altijd voldoende water aanwezig is en geef de mogelijkheid om beschutting op te zoeken.

De uiterlijke symptomen waaraan je kunt zien dat een dier het té warm heeft (hittestress):
- Hijgen / Verhoogde ademhaling
- Zweten of juist stoppen met zweten
- Trillen
- Kwijlen of schuimbekken
- Braken
- Apathisch of juist onrustig gedrag
- Donker kleuren van de slijmvliezen in de bek en tong
- Coördinatieverlies tot bewusteloosheid

💡 Vanaf 27 °C en bij een hoge luchtvochtigheid kan de NVWA het 'Nationaal Plan voor veetransport' in werking laten treden.
Meer informatie over hittestress en veetransport:https://www.nvwa.nl/onderwerpen/hittestress-en-koudestress-bij-dieren-voorkomen

☎️Dier in levensgevaar? Alarmeer direct de eigenaar of bel 1-1-2. Bel voor je eigen dier direct je dierenarts!
🚑Voor klein wild en/of huisdieren (eigenaar onbekend) in nood? Bel de dierenambulance of bel 144 en toets 3.

📞Overige meldingen en vragen? Bel 144 (toets 2) of check de www.politie.nl/144

Dogs tied outside shops face multiple risks.

Firstly, they are vulnerable to theft, as they can be easily taken by someone with malicious intent.

Secondly, there's a risk of aggression, either from or towards other dogs and people, which can lead to stressful or dangerous encounters.

Thirdly, dogs might suffer from environmental stressors, including loud noises or extreme temperatures, without the ability to seek shelter.

Additionally, the dog could become entangled in their leash, leading to potential injury or strangulation.

Finally, the isolation and uncertainty of being left alone in a public place can cause anxiety and distress, affecting the dog's mental well-being.
