Hi all, just some clarification in regards to the Traumatic event that happened at Cabella’s. A customer (not a Dog Trainer U.S. client) brought their dog in and was talking to the HR Manager. The customer told the manager that her dog was friendly and she could pet it so she went to pet it and the dog bit her thru an artery. This was not a Dog Trainer U.S. trained dog but a random customer. The HR Manager was treated by paramedic’s & Firefighters and taken to the hospital. She will need to undergo extensive Occupational Therapy.

Unfortunately, the incident was very traumatic for the staff at Cabella’s and for many of them it may/will take some time for them to mentally and emotionally get to a state of being comfortable with having any dogs in the store. Therefore we are doing what we can to ensure that we do no exacerbate their journey of healing from this event.

As always we appreciate and thank you for your consideration as as we support and help them navigate through this traumatic event. Kristi

PLEASE TAKE NOTE:

HEALTH
Potentially fatal dog parasite found in part of Colorado River for first time, having spread from other states. This Parasite can cause swimmer's itch in humans.

A parasite that can potentially kill dogs has been discovered for the first time in the Colorado River in Southern California, according to a study from the University of California, Riverside.
The parasite is called "Heterobilharzia americana", which is a flatworm more commonly known as a liver fluke.
It had previously mainly been found in Texas and other Gulf states but has now spread west.

"Dogs can die from this infection, so we are hoping to raise public awareness that it’s there," UC Riverside nematology professor Adler Dillman told the UC Riverside News. "If you’re swimming in the Colorado River with them, your pets are in peril".

A parasite that can potentially kill dogs has been discovered for the first time in the Colorado River in Southern California, according to a study from the University of California, Riverside.

Researchers with the school headed to Blythe, California, on the border with Arizona, and collected and tested 2,000 snails on the banks of the Colorado River there after finding out several dogs infected by the parasite had all swum there. The study said the findings suggest "a wider distribution [of the parasite] than previously reported. Our findings have implications for public health, veterinary medicine, and biodiversity conservation, contributing to developing effective control strategies to prevent the spread of this emerging infectious disease."

"In our study, we successfully confirmed the presence of Heterobilharzia americana for the first time along the shores of the Colorado River, infecting two species of snails, Galba humilis and Galba cubensis," the study authors said. "This significant finding marks the westernmost record of this endemic North American schistosome in the U.S. The identification of the parasite in an area with a documented history of canine schistosomiasis emphasizes the persistence and potential expansion of this parasitic threat."
Heterobilharzia americana is endemic to the Gulf Coast and South Atlantic region of North America, but it has also been found in states such as Indiana, Tennessee, Oklahoma, Arkansas and, most recently, Utah.

Along with dogs, it can infect mammals such as raccoons, marsh rabbits, horses, nutria, bobcats, mountain lions and opossums, the study said.

Once inside the skin, the parasite migrates into the lungs where it can cause hemorrhaging.
"It gets into the veins of the intestinal lining, and that’s where it develops into an adult and mates," Dillman told the UC Riverside News. "The presence of the adults in the veins isn’t the problem. It’s the eggs that get into the lungs, spleen, liver and heart. The immune system tries to deal with it, and hard clusters of immune cells called granulomas form. Eventually, the organ tissues stop functioning." Eleven dogs in three counties have been confirmed to have the disease, and one has died, the UC Riverside News said, adding that symptoms, including "loss of appetite, and eventually include vomiting, diarrhea, profound weight loss, and signs of liver disease," can take months to show up.
"Treatment typically involves use of multiple medications and close monitoring of the dog by a veterinarian," Emily Beeler, a veterinarian with the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health, told the newspaper.

The parasite can cause swimmer’s itch in humans but not an infection.

Just for your information..... I do not know anything about the story other than what has been reported here. Please do not let your pups approach anyone that you do not know.

A Phoenix couple is heartbroken after they say a man shot and killed their dogs unprovoked at a park but the man says it was self-defense. For more Local N...

Dear friends, clients & colleagues, Kristi Smith here.

Apparently, my personal facebook was hacked or a spammer linked it to their instagram account and they were not following certain rules so FaceBook without notification suspended the account that I have had for 15+'years. So far we are not being auccessful in getting it reactivated and I am not certain that I will be able to get it reactivated 😞 So there goes 15+ years if memories, pictures & posts with all of you. They are saying that my drivers license does not prove that I am who I say I am and are not providing me with what I need to provide to prove it. If you need or want to reach me please email me at [email protected], at this point I am not certain that

I am going ro make a new account.

Thank you
