Canine parvovirus and distemper are endemic, year-round viral infections in dogs in the Philippines. These are preventable diseases through vaccination and proper care/hygiene. However, some pet owners are not aware or neglecting the vaccination needs of their pets hence resulting to these infections. They usually post treatments to social media and ask “public opinion” in various online groups rather than bringing their pets to the clinic for proper treatment and diagnosis of a licensed veterinarian.

Here are the common home remedies that dog owners used to treat parvoviral enteritis and canine distemper:

𝐌𝐲𝐭𝐡 𝟏: Antibiotics (such as SMP500 and doxycycline) can treat parvoviral enteritis and canine distemper.
𝐅𝐚𝐜𝐭: Both parvoviral enteritis and canine distemper are viral infections. Antibiotics do not inhibit the reproduction of virus in the dog’s body. Therefore, it is not used specifically to treat these viral diseases. However, it may help to prevent secondary bacterial infections at proper dosage and appropriate use. Do not buy and give antibiotics to your dogs without prescription of a veterinarian. That is irresponsible action and an illegal practice [1,2].

𝐌𝐲𝐭𝐡 𝟐: Turmeric should be given in vomiting and diarrheic dogs and cats.
𝐅𝐚𝐜𝐭: Curcumin in turmeric has anti-inflammatory property but it has no established anti-emetic (anti-vomiting) and anti-diarrheal action [3]. Aside from gastric ulcerations, vomiting is induced by various stimuli from the emetic center of the brain. Hence, treatment/management of the underlying problem is key in managing the vomiting and diarrhea in dogs. There are other safer and more effective drugs for diarrhea and vomiting that can be prescribed by your trusted veterinarian.

𝐌𝐲𝐭𝐡 𝟑: Eggyolk will alleviate the signs of viral diseases.
𝐅𝐚𝐜𝐭: Eggyolk contains IgY immunoglobulin and a source of protein. Only one study (14 years ago) reported the protective effects of CPV2-IgY (they infected a chick embryo and harvested the immunoglobulins) in dog experimentally infected with canine parvovirus [4]. However, its efficacy in clinically ill dog has not been proven. In addition, fresh eggyolk may contain Salmonella that could further worsen the diarrhea and vomiting.

𝐌𝐲𝐭𝐡 𝟒: Colloidal silver is the cure for all.
𝐅𝐚𝐜𝐭: Colloidal silver is not FDA approved. If the drug/medicine/supplement claims that it is a cure-all solution (bacterial, viral, fungal and immune system problem, etc), it should have been proven by science and must be in medical textbooks. If something seems too good to be true, it probably is.
There was one study reported the used of silver nanoparticles containing 6% metallic silver (1.8mg/ml or 1800PPM) as an effective treatment in dogs with non-neurological sign of distemper (meaning there is no tremors or seizure). Less than that concentration was found not to be effective. The same study said “...at higher concentrations, there is a risk of nanoparticles accumulation in different organs and tissues that could negatively influence the animal health.” [5]. However, it is worthy to mention that they only used 6% metallic silver but the products circulating online on various dog groups are claiming to contain 99% pure silver and usually at 0.2mg/ml or 20PPM, which is below the dose used in the said study. Again, there are safer options.

Supportive care and therapy are the only treatment options for these viral diseases. Though there are products such as hyperimmune serum, the standard medical care includes nutritional support, correcting electrolyte imbalance and dehydration, and symptomatic treatments (for pain, diarrhea and vomiting).

Sa mga may alagang a*o at pusa diyan, essential po sa knila ang bakuna, lalo na kung pinapalabas ng bahay ang mga furbabies natin para patakbuhin at igala.

DISCLAIMER: Hindi po ako eksperto ah. Based po ito sa mga experiences ko as "Furrent".

(DEWORMER) Sa mga tuta, in their 2nd week, puwede na sila deworm (depende sa bigat nila ang dosage na ipapainom). 4-5x na deworming (oral suspension) na may 2-week interval. Kapag natapos nila yan, tsaka pa lang sila magstart ng every 3 months na deworming na tablet.

(5-IN-1/ 6-IN-1/ 7-IN-1 vaccine) Essential ito sa mga furbabies natin especially laganap ang sakit na parvo at distemper, kadalasang namamatay ang mga tuta kapag nadapuan sila nito at hindi naagapan. Sintomas ng parvo ay pagdurumi na may kasamang dugo na sobrang lansa, pagsusuka, kawalan ng gana kumain, at panghihina. Late stage na kapag dumumi ng purong dugo ang furbaby, kahit i-dextrose pa sila. Maaaring bigyan na ang mga tuta ng 5-in-1 vaccine kapag tumuntong na sila ng dalawang buwan (2mos.old). Four (4) series of shots ito na may 2-week interval, gaya ng dewormer. Kapag nakumpleto nila 'to, tsaka pa lang sila magstart ng annual shot ng 5-in-1 vaccine.

(ANTI-RABIES VACCINE) Essential din ito sa kanila. Kapag naexpose sila sa rabid animal na walang bakuna at nakagat kayo, awit na lang sa'yo par. Maaaring pabakunahan ang mga tuta kapag tumuntong na sila ng 14 weeks old or 3-4months. Next shot after one year na, basta taon-taon dapat pabakunahan sila ng booster.

(HEARTWORM PREVENTATIVE) Isa pa 'to sa mga essentials ng ating mga furbabies. Kagagawan 'to ng mga lamok na may dala-dalang larvae ng mammal-dwelling parasites na galing sa nakagat nilang heartworm positive na dog. Search niyo itsura niya sa Google, nakakadiri. Siyempre ayaw natin magkaroon ang mga furbabies natin ng mga worms sa puso nila, kaya prevent natin. Every month 'to binibigay sa mga dogs. Chewable siya na hugis rectangle. Annually, dapat pinapatest dn natin dugo ng mga furbabies natin for heartworm check. ❤️

(KENNEL COUGH, LEPTOSPIROSIS VACC, at kung anik-anik) Optional na po 'yan, pero mas maganda kung mabigyan din sila ng mga 'yan.

Actually, may mga dogs na kahit walang bakuna or whatsoever ay malalakas at magagana kumain. 'Yon ay dahil nakapagbuild sila ng immunity nung mga tuta pa sila, naexpose sa germs at kung anik-anik, parang tao lang. Kasi may a*o kami na 20 years old na ngayon at buhay pa siya (Praise God!) na once lang nabakunahan ng anti-rabies, hindi siya nadeworm at heartworm preventives, pero masigla siya. Na-share ko lang naman. So, nasa sa inyo po 'yan especially dun sa mga gusto talaga mag-alaga ka*o walang pampavet. Ang akin lang, hindi natin masasabi kung kailan dadapuan mga furbabies natin ng sakit so pabakunahan na lang natin para iwas stress din sa atin kapag nagkasakit sila. And, masakit mamatayan ng a*o. Nagspend na rin lang tayo ng oras para alagaan sila at pakainin, lubusin na natin. ❤️❤️❤️

P.S.Wala po magcocomment ng negative dito ah, block ko talaga kayo. Char lamang. 😂

P.P.S. Huwag din po tayo magbigay ng kung anu-ano sa mga furbabies natin kapag may sakit sila. Dami ko nababasa sa mga furowners/furparents group pages na bigyan ng ganito ganyan kapag nagsusuka or nagtatae na may dugo. Please lang po, pa-check niyo sa vet. Maaaring tumalab sa furbaby niyo, pero maaari ding makasama sa ibang furbabies. Magkakaiba po sila ng mekanismo sa katawan.

'Yun lamang po. Kung may kulang akong nasabi, pacomment na lang po sa baba para matulungan natin ibang furparents dito.

PRICE:
DEWORMER (Oral Suspension for Puppies) ₱350-₱450

DEWORMER (Tablet for Adult Dogs) ₱150-₱200 for dogs below 10kilograms. So if 30kilograms weight ng dog nyo, 3 tablets un so ₱450-₱600 (every 3mos, basta matapos ung 1st 4 series of deworming na may 2-week interval)

HEARTGARD ₱160 for dogs below 10kilograms. ₱200 for dogs above 20kilograms. (Every month)

5in1 VACCINE ₱400 (annually, basta matapos ung 1st 4 series of shots na 2-week interval)

Anti-Tick/Anti-Flea (Bravecto brand) ₱1,250 good for 3mos. na proteksyon sa mga kuto. Oral medication 'yan. Optional po 'to.

ANTIRABIES ₱200 (annually)

Ultra*ound ₱800 (for pregnant dogs)

THE DANGEROUS REALITY OF PET FOOD STORAGE CONTAINERS

Whether in a pet shop, box store, or online, pet food storage containers are being offered everywhere. Heck, at expos and trade shows they are given away to market a company’s brand name! However, these storage containers can be deadly if used incorrectly!

We all grew up in the age of Tupperware and storing our food in plastic containers. I mean, storage containers were designed to preserve foods, help organize our kitchens, and make our lives easier. Right?

Well, with the amount of information made available to us today, this thought process has changed quickly! With all the research that has been published on eating food out of plastic, that era of using plastic awesomeness has officially died!

Today, more and more families are throwing out their plastic food storage containers (recycle!) and switching to safer alternatives.

But what about our furry companions? Are they receiving the same consideration when it comes to food storage?

Not according to research, they aren’t!

Today, retail shelves are littered with storage containers for dry and wet pet foods; from products like snap & seals and air-tight stackables, to plastic storage carts on wheels.

WHAT IS THE BIG DEAL?

Let’s start with the obvious:

Research has shown that certain plastic containers leach an assortment of chemicals into our foods and, of course, pet foods! Chemicals in plastic like BPA have been shown to have hormone mimicking, estrogenic and cancer properties.

“Ok. No problem,” you may say, because as we know BPA has been taken out of some plastic storage containers and replaced with a different chemical called bisphenol-S (BPS).

But according to science, BPS appears to be just as toxic (if not more so) than BPA.

“In 2013, researchers at the University of Texas Medical Branch discovered that even minute concentrations—less than one part per trillion—of BPS can disrupt cellular functioning. Metabolic disorders like obesity, diabetes, and even cancer, are potential ramifications of such disruptions.” – Mercola https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2013/01/130122191412.htm

TO KEEP RAINING ON THE STORAGE CONTAINER PARADE -

Pet food containers have phthalates & estrogenic activity going on!

In the Environmental Health Perspectives study, they found that out of 500 plastic products they tested, plastics leached when stressed, and 90 percent of them leached even without stress. In fact, the Environmental Health Perspectives study found that some BPA-free products had even more estrogenic activity than BPA-containing products! - https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3222987/

Here’s some more rain - Lest we forget phthalates!

Phthalates, which are used as plasticizers in everything, and especially pet food storage containers, have shown to be super-destructive!

“These chemicals have disrupted the endocrine systems of wildlife, causing testicular cancer, ge***al deformations, low s***m counts, and infertility in polar bears, deer, whales, and otters, just to name a few.” - Dr. Karen Becker

OK, NOW FOR THE WHOPPER OF A PROBLEM!

Are you washing your pet food container daily??

When the fats and oils of kibble hit the walls of pet food containers, they begin to oxidize (especially in the plastic ones).

Once the reaction starts, it is self propagating and unstoppable. The oxidation reaction creates free radicals that oxidize fat molecules. The inevitable result is an avalanche of oxidation, and like nearly all-chemical reactions in nature, the warmer the conditions the faster it goes.

In layman terms: over time, the residual fats and oils that have settled along the walls and bottom of the storage container start to grow rancid and develop the invisible molds that will aid in the destruction of your pet’s health. That greasiness along the walls of your container is not so awesome!

According to Pet food formulator (maker) Steve Brown:

“As soon as a food is manufactured, it begins to undergo a variety of chemical and physical changes. It’s a basic law of the universe that everything degrades over time. This includes the proteins and vitamins in dog foods, but it’s the fats I worry about the most. Fats are among the most chemically fragile nutrients in dog food; they are the limiting factor to the shelf life of most dog foods. Fats that have degraded – gone “rancid” – can cause all sorts of health problems for dogs.”

WHY DO YOU NEED TO WASH PET FOOD STORAGE BINS DAILY?

Answer: Because plastic containers have tiny little microscopic pores!

When these fats get trapped in the pores, over time, they too will also grow rancid and contaminate each new batch of food poured into the containers. (Pet parents unknowingly keep pouring new bags of food in the containers, over and over, without washing out the rancid-formed fats and molds!)

Moral of the story:

Try to avoid using a plastic container to store kibble. However, if you already purchased the container, keep the food in its original bag and place that bag into the plastic container. This will help keep oxygen away from degrading the kibble, and saves you the giant disaster that could occur. (Remember to wash that container periodically.)

OR

A BETTER ROUTE TO TAKE: CHOOSE GLASS OVER PLASTIC

To avoid chemical toxins leaching into your pet food, choose glass over plastic when choosing a storage method. Glass pet food storage containers don’t leach unwanted, poisonous chemicals when in contact with pet food. Glass containers are non-porous and won’t absorb rancid oils. However, you should still wash these containers regularly.

OR

Just buy smaller bags of pet food so there is no need for these toxic containers in the first place. :)

Kulang ka sa Exercise?
Mag-a*o ka, marami kang exercise.

1. Voice.. Pag may a*o ka, mapapractice mo modulation.. Pati high notes ng boses mo sa pagbigkas ng iba't ibang levels ng "NO"..

2. Dancing.. Heto yung pag-ilag mo sa mga bombang nakakalat sa umaga bago ka puma*ok..

3. Running.. Heto yung paghabol mo ng humaharurot na a*ong nakalabas pag nakabukas ang gate mo..

4. Oral communication.. Introspective.. Walang dog lover na di kinakausap ang a*o kahit di naman sumasagot pabalik.. Exercise to ng iyong superpowers para tumalas ang pakikipag-usap sa mga manhid..

5. Diet.. Sa umaga at kumakain kang tinapay.. Mahirap makabuong kain ng pandesal lalo't may mga nagkikislapang puppy eyes sa mga nakaabang na a*o sa harap mo..

6. Exercise of restraint.. Pag may a*o ka, mahirap gumimik ng tipong wala nang bukas.. Maaalala mo palagi, may naghihintay sayo..

7. Exercise of frugality.. Dami kasing gastos pag may a*o ka at alam mo yun.. Kaya may exercise ang bulsa mo..

Marami pa yang exercise.. Tapos isipin mo na lang may background music ni Yoyoy.. Mag-exercise tayo tuwing umaga..Tuwing umaga..Tuwing umaga.. Awooo!

This is so wrong.

Benefits of Yakult for Dogs
(SABI NILA)

❗Yakult is a natural dewormer

No, that is not established. There are some studies shows probiotics from Lactobacillus strain (but not the one inside yakult) have some activities against hookworms, roundworms and whipworms but since few studies was established about this to claim yakult or other probiotics as DEWORMER is erratic. We cannot rely on this when we see our dogs having a tingling little worms popping out their a**s, never do it. Proper dewormer medicine is always the safest, proven and appropriate antiparasitic.

With that post, we are giving FALSE SENSE OF SECURITY towards furparents that when they give yakult, their dogs will be free from worms. Simply erratic and dangerous claim. Some worms infestation once mapabayaan maaring ikamatay at ikasama ng buhay ng inyong a*o at ng buong pamilya (yes nkakahawa ang bulate ng a*o sa ating mga tao)

❗Yakult is good when your puppy/dog has diarrhea

I partially approve on this. Pero bakit partial? Kasi ganito yan, there is this what we call COMPETITIVE EXCLUSION where good bacteria can overcome bad bacteria by numbers, somehow diarrheac dogs can be given certain probiotics but not the good bacteria inside yakult. WE USE DIFFERENT STRAINS OF GOOD BACTERIA.

But the thing also is this, with that post. Again baka magkaroon nanaman ng FALSE SENSE OF SECURITY sa mga furparents that when their dog has diarrhea, yakult lng oks na, mali yun kapatid. Bkit?

Here are some common causes ng diarrhea sa mga a*o.
1. Viral enteritis (Parvo, Corona, Rota Viruses)
2. Giardia and other kinds of Protozoa such as isospora etc.
3. Acute Hemorhagic Gastro-enteritis (Bacterial in nature: Salmonella, E.coli etc)
4. Food allergic reaction
5. Foreign Body ingestion
Many more.

Importanteng maipaintindi sa isang tao na maraming maaring maging sanhi ang pagtatae ng isang hayop at hindi sapat na bgyan lng ito ng yakult.

Again, PROPER DIAGNOSIS = PROPER TREATMENT

❗ Yakult brings good bacteria into dogs digestive system especially when they took anti-biotics and medicines

(ANTI) ok ulitin ko, "ANTI- BIOTICS". It kills bacteria, GOOD OR BAD. When a patient is taking ANTIBIOTICS, it is not advisable na ipgsabay ito sa PROBIOTICS.

Papatayin lng ng ANTIBIOTIC ang PROBIOTICS kapag pinagsabay.

Geez. Gets po?

❗ Yakult fights bad breath causing bacteria

Bad breathe due to what?

Baka naman po matindi na ang dental condition ng inyong mga a*o, look for PLAQUE BUILDUPS. If your dogs oral health is compromised, kahit palaklakin niyo po ng sandamak mak na probiotics ang a*o natin, hindi yan maaayos.

In case n malinis naman ang ipin pero mabaho padin, there is this named HELICOBACTER PILORI, A bacteria sa stomach causing bad breathe sa mga a*o or even to us humans. Regular consumption of probiotics through COMPETITIVE EXCLUSION can somehow help.

But then, let us be clear, we dont want any form of FALSE SENSE OF SECURITY SA MGA OWNERS, so let us be clear with the condition always.

❗Yakult is good for their digestive system which helps maintain a healthy balance of intestinal flora which is important for good digestion

Ito na, ano ba ang laman ng yakult? Himayin natin.

1. Lactobacillus casei shirota strain
2. Glucose/sucrose
3. Skimmed milk (that contains LACTOSE)

Yakult is for Human consumption.

Ano naman ang common good bacteria sa tyan ng mga a*o o pusa?

1. Lactobacillus acidophilus.
2. Enterococcus faecium.
3. Bifidobacterium lactis.
4. Bifidobacterium breve.

Pansin mo ba na iba ang flora sa tyan ng a*o right?
That is the rea*on why we are recommending ng mga VETERINARY PREPARED AND APPROPRIATE PROBIOTICS SA MGA A*O.

Simply because the gut flora ng tao ay iba sa mga a*o.

It also contains LACTOSE, see most of the milk prepared for dogs and cats na mabibili sa mga pet stores and even clincs are lactose free dba? It is because most of dogs cannot tolerate LACTOSE. Kaya bgo p man sila mag tae ofcourse dpt ingatan n ntn. Kahit sabihin nio pa na sa a*o ko safe naman hndi naman nagtae, e paano yung iba? Bahala na sila, kasi ok samin e?

No, we dont do that. We always care for our patients in general. So as precaution, we do not recommend any product containing LACTOSE.

❗Yakult improves function of the immune system to help fight infection

This entirely acceptable naman. I agree to this lalo if gut health ng TAO ang pinaguusapan. Pero for dogs and cats, ALWAYS USE VETERINARY PREPARED PROBIOTICS.

Mas appropriate.

❗Yakult can help stops our furbabies to eat p**p

Coprophagy ang tawag dito.

It is either due to the ff. Rea*ons
1. Boredome
2. Vice or Bisyo
3. Nutritional deficiency.

WALANG KINALAMAN SI YAKULT SA TATLONG YAN
😂
~~~~

Hindi naman masamang uminom ng yakult.
Nagiging masama lang ito to the ff. Rea*ons:
1. If your dog is LACTOSE INTOLERANT. Magtatae at lalambot tlga ang knilang mga pupu.
2. If we solely rely on the said benefits na sinabi sa post n nasa pic. FALSE SENSE OF SECURITY. Magrerely kasi ang mga tao sa benefits n nabasa nila in the end hndi nila mapapatingnan ng maayos ang kanilang mga alaga. Kawawa na naman si furbaby.

Mag guide tayo ng tama.

14/12/2020

Bakit ayaw ng mga Breeder na binabarat yung puppies nila or hihingiin na lang. Ito ang mga main rea*on:
Complete Vaccination : 3,000php.
Complete Deworm : 700php.
Anti-Rabies : 500php.
Vitamins per month : 1000php.
Dog Food per month : 3000php.
PLUS YUNG BAYAD PA SA:
*PAPERS NG PUPPIES 1-3K+ sa isang litter na yun, depende kung gaano kadami ang puppy.
*STUD FEE NG SIRE 10K-50K
*VITAMINS PA NANG DAM HABANG BUNTIS NA AABUTIN DIN NG 1-3K

Pagod pa sa pag aalaga ng dam at pagpa-whelp pa ng puppies hanggang pwede na sila makakain ng dogfood, isipin nyo for 1 month every 2 hours kailangan mo ipadede yung puppies sa dam nila. Kadalasan wala nang tulog ang mga Breeders. Minsan nga sa loob na lang ng cage natutulog ang mga breeder para lang mabantayan ng maayos ang mga puppies. Sa pagod at pagpupuyat pa lang di na kaya tumbasan ng price na gusto nyo para sa puppy.

Bakit sa ibang breeder tig-7000-15,000PHP lang yung puppy tapos sa iba naman is worth 50,000-100,00+PHP eh same breed lang naman sila. OO SAME BREED LANG SILA PERO MAY PAGKAKAIBA TALAGA SILA SA PRICE ALAM MO KUNG BAKIT? KADALASAN MAHAL TALAGA YUNG MGA A*O NA MAY PAPERS AT MGA CHAMPION LINE, WORKING LINE, RARE COLOR OR MGA IMPORT LINE. TAKE NOTE DO SOME RESEARCH MUNA ABOUT THE BREED NA GUSTO MONG BILHIN IF BAGAY SYA SA LIFESTYLE MO.

WHY BUY A PUPPY FROM A RESPONSIBLE BREEDER? SIMPLE LANG SIGURADONG MASASATISFY KA SA A*O NA MAKUKUHA MO!
SABI NGA NILA "PAY TO PLAY" 😁💰
BECAUSE IF YOU CHOOSE TO GET A DOG FROM AN UNETHICAL PUPPY PRODUCER
BECAUSE IT'S CHEAPER, OR MORE CONVENIENT DO NOT BE SURPRISED IF THE DOG ENDS UP WITH BEHAVIORAL ISSUES OR SERIOUS HEALTH PROBLEMS.
IT MIGHT TAKE A LITTLE MORE TIME, EFFORT, OR MONEY TO GET A DOG FROM A RESPONSIBLE BREEDER. BUT THE TRUTH IS YOU PAY NOW OR YOU PAY LATER. AT PAG MAY SAKIT YUNG A*O NA NAKUHA MO SA BREEDER NA WALANG PAKIALAM SA HEALTH NG A*O GAGASTOS KA LANG NG DOBLE SA GAMOT NYA. KAYA MAKE SURE IF BIBILI NANG A*O NAKARESEARCH KAYO ABOUT SA BREED NA GUSTO MO BILHIN PARA BAGO KA BUMILI MAY IDEA KA NA SA BACKGROUND NYA AT SA RESPONSIBLE BREEDER NG A*O KAYO KUMUHA PARA DI KAYO MAGSISI SA HULI.
AT MAS MABUTI NA RIN MAGKENNEL VISIT PARA MA KITA MO PERSONALLY YUNG PUPPY IF NASA GOOD CONDTION SIYA AT MAKITA MO DIN PERSONALLY YUNG DAM AND SIRE. JAN MO MALALAMAN IF LEGIT YUNG PAGKUKUNAN MO. KAPAG AYAW PUMAYAG MAGPAKENNEL VISIT I-CANCEL MO NA TRANSACTION MO SA KANYA😁

JUST SHARING MY OPINION, GOOD DAY TO YOU ALL😁🙏🏼

As typhoon Rolly hits Luzon PLEASE. 🙏:

➡️ Bring all your pets in and provide them with a safe shelter that will not flood ((preferably with you is best))

➡️ Put Collars with tags on all pets, write your phone number ..

➡️ DO NOT leave chained animals chained, Cut your animals loose if you do not plan to bring them in or you cannot bring them in and provide safe shelter.

They will have a bigger chance to survive on their own than on a chain...don't deprive them of a chance to save themselves🥺

➡️ If you see a lost, disoriented, or wandering pet please bring in if you can and give shelter.

➡️ DO NOT CRATE / CAGE, your left behind PETS THEY WILL DROWN IN THEIR CRATES / CAGES IF YOUR HOUSE FLOODS.

Taking your pets with you is best!

➡️ If you do have to leave and you do not take your house pets make sure they can escape a flooding house. Open an upstairs window..or any window they can get thru when or if water gets high.

🙏Praying for everyone's safety. Let's weather the storm together. No pets left behind.

WHY DOGS LIVE LESS THAN HUMAN

Here's the surprising answer of a 6 year old child.

Being a veterinarian, I had been called to examine a ten-year-old Irish Wolfhound named Belker. The dog’s owners, Ron, his wife Lisa, and their little boy Shane, were all very attached to Belker, and they were hoping for a miracle.

I examined Belker and found he was dying of cancer. I told the family we couldn’t do anything for Belker, and offered to perform the euthanasia procedure for the old dog in their home.

As we made arrangements, Ron and Lisa told me they thought it would be good for six-year-old Shane to observe the procedure. They felt as though Shane might learn something from the experience.

The next day, I felt the familiar catch in my throat as Belker‘s family surrounded him. Shane seemed so calm, petting the old dog for the last time, that I wondered if he understood what was going on. Within a few minutes, Belker slipped peacefully away.

The little boy seemed to accept Belker’s transition without any difficulty or confusion. We sat together for a while after Belker’s Death, wondering aloud about the sad fact that dogs' lives are shorter than human lives. Shane, who had been listening quietly, piped up, ”I know why.”

Startled, we all turned to him. What came out of his mouth next stunned me. I’d never heard a more comforting explanation. It has changed the way I try and live.

He said, ”People are born so that they can learn how to live a good life — like loving everybody all the time and being nice, right?” The six-year-old continued,

”Well, dogs already know how to do that, so they don’t have to stay for as long as we do.”

Live simply.
Love generously.
Care deeply.
Speak kindly.

Remember, if a dog was the teacher you would learn things like:

• When your loved ones come home, always run to greet them.
• Never pass up the opportunity to go for a joyride.
• Allow the experience of fresh air and the wind in your face to be pure Ecstasy.
• Take naps.
• Stretch before rising.
• Run, romp, and play daily.
• Thrive on attention and let people touch you.
• Avoid biting when a simple growl will do.
• On warm days, stop to lie on your back on the grass.
• On hot days, drink lots of water and lie under a shady tree.
• When you’re happy, dance around and wag your entire body.
• Delight in the simple joy of a long walk.
• Be faithful.
• Never pretend to be something you’re not.
• If what you want lies buried, dig until you find it.
• When someone is having a bad day, be silent, sit close by, and nuzzle them gently.

That's the secret of happiness that we can learn from a good dog.

Is Your Dog A Picky Eater?

Stick to either pure dog food or go pure raw feeding. A dog, especially before he turns a year old, will test your authority and will not eat his food. If you give him another food, he just won the dominance game and is now trying to become your master. Check first if the dog has no physiologic problem. If the dog is 100% healthy, practice tough love. Put dogfood at a fixed hour everyday to establish routine and consistency. For example, feed only at 7am and 6pm. When you put food at 7am let it stay for 15min. If he didnt eat during that 15min, remove the food. Do the same at 6pm. If still he didnt eat, do the same the next day. This way, you are teaching your dog that you are in command and if he doesnt eat in that 15min window time, he will starve. I always say this, A HEALTHY DOG WILL NEVER STARVE ITSELF TO DEATH. Kakain at kakain yan ng kahit anong nasa harap nya pag nagutom cya. It is normal for dogs to fast for a day or two. Hindi nila ikamamatay yun basta cgurado kayo na wala cyang kahit anong sakit ha.

Also, make sure that your dog's energy is being burned everyday. That is why walking and exercise is needed everyday. It burns energy and makes them hungry. It also somehow mimics hunting for food in the wild.

Do not spoil your dogs. Let them be dogs and they love it that way. Madaming may attitude and feeding problem na chows because they are being spoiled and because of their cuteness, people let the dogs doninate their human. They are stubborn by nature. They need a firm and strong handler/owner.
