Ever wondered how the bond between children and animals can transform communities?
Join us as we explore the intersection of animal and child welfare with Funda Nenja.
In Funda Nenja's approach, the connection between animal and child welfare is profound. By providing practical dog training classes for children, they're not only teaching valuable skills but also nurturing empathy, kindness, and respect.
This is crucial because if children are not receiving love and compassion at home, it becomes challenging for them to reciprocate these feelings towards animals.
When children experience love, care, and empathy through their interactions with dogs, it sets a foundation for them to show compassion not just to animals but also to fellow humans. Funda Nenja's programs go beyond just training dogs; they're shaping future leaders who understand the importance of responsible ownership and caring for others.
Discover how Funda Nenja is shaping compassionate leaders through practical dog training classes for children.

These classes help children develop an affectionate bond with their dogs, changing their attitudes and emotional responses toward animals.
By investing in the future and not just applying a "band-aid" approach to animal welfare, they aim to create responsible, caring dog owners who will become agents of change and role models in their communities.

If your dog is showing signs of heat stroke, it's crucial to act quickly. Here are steps to take:
1. Move to a cooler area: Bring your dog indoors or into the shade immediately.
2. Provide cool water: Offer your dog small amounts of water to drink. Don't force them to drink, but make sure water is available.
3. Cool the body: Wet your dog's fur with cool water. You can use a hose, wet towels, or immerse them in a shallow, cool bath. Don't wrap them in a towel.
4. Use fans: Use fans or air conditioning to help lower your dog's body temperature.
5. Monitor temperature: Check your dog's rectal temperature frequently. Stop cooling efforts when their temperature reaches around 39.4°C.
6. Seek veterinary care: Even if your dog seems to recover, it's essential to seek veterinary attention immediately. Heat stroke can cause internal damage that may not be immediately apparent.
Why ice is not recommended:
Using ice or ice-cold water to cool down a dog suffering from heat stroke can actually be harmful. Extreme cold can constrict blood vessels and slow down the cooling process.
It can also cause shivering, which generates heat and may increase the dog's body temperature. Additionally, rapid cooling with ice can lead to shock. It's best to use cool, not cold, water and monitor the dog's temperature closely.

Heat Stroke Risks are Real!
Walking pets in the heat at midday can expose them to the risk of heat stroke due to several factors.
Firstly, the pavement or asphalt can become extremely hot under the sun, leading to burns on their paws.
Additionally, pets exert themselves during walks, which can increase their body temperature, especially when combined with high ambient temperatures.
This combination of hot surfaces and exertion can quickly lead to heat stroke, a serious and potentially fatal condition in pets.
It's best to walk pets in the early morning or late evening when temperatures are cooler to prevent these risks.
Have you tried the pavement test before?

Let's share? Why that isn't a good idea with cats!
Sharing custody with cats may seem appealing on the surface, but it's not always appropriate due to the unique nature and needs of feline companions.
Cats are creatures of habit and thrive on consistency and stability in their environment. Constantly moving between homes can cause stress and anxiety, leading to behavioral issues such as aggression, inappropriate urination, and excessive hiding.
Additionally, cats can form strong attachments to their primary caregiver and may struggle to adjust to multiple households.
Ensuring the well-being of our feline friends means prioritizing their comfort and minimizing disruptions to their routine, which may not be achievable in a shared custody arrangement.
