Attention Planet Paws Clients! 🐾❄️

Brrr! It’s frigid out there this week! Due to the dangerously low temperatures, all dog walks will be changed to potty and play visits or rescheduled. Your pup’s safety is our top priority, and these extreme temps can be hard on even the toughest dogs.

Please remember to keep your pups’ outdoor time brief and bring them back in to avoid frostbite or hypothermia. We’ll make sure they still get some fun and attention during visits this week! Stay warm, everyone!

Sharing this from our friends at Angela's Treat Stash, LLC. I do not know much about diabetes in dogs, so this is great info to know.

🐾💙 Empower Your Pet's Health: 9 Essential Tips for Diabetes Management!💙🐾

Discover the keys to ensuring your fur baby's well-being amidst diabetes with these vital steps! From recognizing early signs to embracing a tailored approach, here's your guide to proactive pet care:

1. Know the Symptoms: Watch for excessive thirst, changes in appetite, lethargy, cloudy eyes, and sweet-smelling breath. Early detection is crucial!

2. Regular Veterinary Check-ups (IF needed): Schedule routine vet visits for blood tests and personalized care plans. Your vet is your ally in managing diabetes effectively.

3. Healthy Diet: Opt for a balanced, vet-recommended diet. Say no to sugary treats and maintain a consistent feeding schedule to regulate blood sugar levels.

4. Regular Exercise: Keep your pet active! Exercise helps in regulating blood sugar and maintaining a healthy weight. Consult your vet for an appropriate exercise routine.

5. Medication and Insulin: Administer prescribed medications, especially insulin, at the same time daily. Regular monitoring and an emergency kit are must-haves.

6. Home Monitoring: Learn to monitor blood glucose levels at home if advised by your vet. Keep meticulous records of glucose levels, food intake, and behavior.

7. Lifestyle Adjustments: Reduce stress and prioritize dental health. Diabetic pets are prone to dental issues, so regular dental care is essential.

8. Education and Support: Stay informed! Continuous learning about diabetes and its management is empowering. Connect with online support groups for shared experiences.

9. Emergency Awareness: Be aware of signs of hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) and keep glucose gel or syrup handy. Save your vet's and emergency vet's contact numbers for quick access.

With these steps, you're not just managing diabetes; you're enriching your pet's life with love, care, and knowledge. Together, we can ensure your pet lives a happy, healthy, and vibrant life! 🌟🐾🐶💙

PITBULL FACTS:

-Did you know that “Pit Bull” is actually a catchall term that refers to multiple breeds? This includes the American Pit Bull terrier, American bulldog, American Staffordshire terrier, Staffordshire bull terrier and the English bull terrier. Then there are mixed breed dogs with similar characteristics that are labeled as such.

-Both President Teddy Roosevelt and President Woodrow Wilson owned Pit Bull terriers.

-Just like with German Shepherds or Golden Retrievers, there are Pit Bulls that are lap dogs, therapy dogs (Helen Keller owned one), even bomb-sniffing dogs. They can be docile, child friendly, and easily trained.

-Pit Bulls have served as wartime soldiers and mascots, including Stubby, who went to war in France for 18 months during WWI. His service and acts of bravery — including saving his regiment from mustard gas attacks — earned him the rank of Sergeant, and he returned home to a hero’s parade.

-Famous Pit Bulls include the RCA dog named Nipper, the Buster Brown shoe mascot, and Petey, the canine companion of the adorable Little Rascals.

-Pit Bulls have an athletic build and are very agile, which allows many to climb fences with ease.

-Pit Bulls can be musically inclined. In fact, there was a Pit Bull grindcore band — named Caninus — which was fronted by two Pit Bull lead singers, who barked their lyrics.

-Many puppies that are identified as Pit Bulls begin life with a very wrinkled forehead, which they outgrow as they age.

-A test conducted by National Geographic in 2008 on three popular dog breeds showed that the bite force of Pit Bulls came in last, behind both German Shepherds and Rottweilers. Note: ( Pit Bulls have lock jaws) This is a myth that has been spread for years.

-According to the American Temperament Test Society, Pit Bulls pass their temperament test—conducted by a trained handler—87% of the time. That ranks them as 4th best of 122 breeds tested, meaning they are one of the most affectionate and least aggressive dogs.

-Michael Vick owned 51 Pit Bulls at the time of his arrest for dog fighting. Thirty of those dogs have been re-trained and are in loving homes, while four more have gone on to become therapy dogs.

-VetStreet.com has ranked the American Pit Bull terrier as one of the top three favorite dog breeds in 28 U.S.

-Pit Bulls are the most euthanized breed.

We hope that having read a bit more factual information about Pit Bulls, and now knowing that they can make very good pets, that your outlook has changed to a more favorable one. We certainly hope so!
