Oh, you know I love the woo-woo's! Who needs Kota to sing for them??

Who needs Koda in their life?! In Oklahoma, Koda is Approx 2yrs old and 94lbs (a husky maybe malamute mix??). He was purchased with the hopes to train him as a service dog, but his former owner lived in an apartment with a medical condition and did not understand the needs of this breed. Now living in a home with other dogs and a cat, Koda seems to get along well with others. A typical young, smart dog, Koda needs an active home with people who know and love the breed! He is housebroken and crate trained and would make a great mountain dog. Please share and, if interested in meeting Koda, apply to adopt at mountainpetrescue.org

Ever wonder how dogs know what time it is? 🤔

I NOSE WHAT TIME IT IS!

Dogs just seem to know when it’s time for food, time for a walk or even what time we’re expected to come home, sometimes down to the exact minute!

Yes, they may simply know this from daily routines that create predictable patterns or certain cues that predict certain events, but there is far more to this ability to tell time than the obvious reasons.

One theory is that time has a particular smell. Different times of the day smell differently. Morning smells differently to afternoon or evening.

As air heats up over the course of the day, air currents change and move around, carrying molecules of different odours with it.

These changes become predictable and a dog’s incredible sense of smell enables these odours to become their “clock”.

One example is when you leave the house to go to work, leaving a strong scent behind you. As time passes, your scent becomes weaker.

Dogs predict that when your scent becomes weakened to a certain level, it’s time for you to come home.

The level of your scent predicts the time. As dogs can detect both strong and weak scents and all of the levels in between, it means that they are actually interpreting events across an interval of time.

Another way dogs may tell time is through circadian rhythms. Just like us, dogs have fluctuations in systems like hormone levels, neural activity or body temperature and these rhythms may help them to understand the approximate time of day - just like when our stomach starts growling when it’s nearly time for dinner or we feel tired when it's time for bed.

Dogs are not the only species that can interpret time. Animals that migrate or hibernate follow seasonal cues from nature in the form of daylight and temperature to know when the time is right.

Having hundreds of millions more scent receptors than us, a dog’s amazing ability to smell is likely the reason that dogs just "nose" what time it is.

From the book “On Talking Terms with Dogs” by Turid Rugas

“If you want your dog to respect you, you must also respect your dog. A good relationship is based on two-way communication, and living together in a well-balanced togetherness. Leadership does not solve anything; it only creates problems, in our lives as well as in the dogs’ lives.”

Many people turn to antibiotics for a wide range of reasons. This is great info!

Antimicrobial resistance can affect the health of both people and animals. Here are some ways pet owners can help use antibiotics responsibly:
▪ Ask your veterinarian about preventing common infections with good hygiene, nutrition, vaccinations, and proper pet care.
▪ Use antibiotics only when needed, and follow your veterinarian’s directions.
▪ Store antibiotics safely in your home, so that children and pets do not accidentally take medicine not meant for them.
▪ Talk with your veterinarian about using antibiotics responsibly to keep people and pets healthy.

Don't use anything like this without talking to your vet first!

As of September, the Food and Drug Administration had received 14 reports involving 20 dogs that had been accidentally exposed to topical 5-fluorouracil, all ending in death of the dogs. In response, the agency asked manufacturers to add a warning to the medicine containers.

Fabulous article in Psychology today.
