<b>How big is the problem in Australia?</b></div>
<div class="Standard">
Approximately 7 cats /1000 human residents enter shelters and
pounds around Australia annually based on 2012-13 data, and the death rate
varies between states from 3 to 7 cats/1000 residents (Chua and Rand,
unpublished data). This compares with a dog intake of 10 dogs/1000 residents
and deaths of 2 dogs/1000 residents. Approximately 170,000 cats enter shelters
and pounds annually in Australia, with 27% found new homes (compared with 19% of
dogs), 6% transferred (compared with 7% of dogs), but only 4.5% are reclaimed
by the owner, compared to 48% of dogs, resulting in an average euthanasia rate across
Australian shelters and pounds of 56% for cats compared to 21% for dogs. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is estimated that the cost to the community
is approximately $250 million a year to manage unwanted cats and dogs in
shelters and council pounds (Albertson <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">et
al,</i> 2013). </div>
<div class="Standard">
<br /></div>
<div class="Standard">
There is also a human cost, with 50% of workers directly
involved with euthanasia developing post-traumatic stress, which is associated
with depression, substance abuse, high blood pressure, sleeplessness and
suicide (Reeve <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">et al,</i> 2005, Baran <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">et al</i>, 2009, Frommer <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">et al</i>, 1999, Rohlf<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"> et al</i>, 2005). Staff turnover rate is proportional to euthanasia
rate in shelters. (Rogelberg <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">et al., </i>2007)</div>
<div class="Standard">
<br /></div>
<div class="Standard">
<span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;">Being
unwanted kills pets more than disease<b>. </b>As a community, h</span><span style="color: black;">ow can we best respond to a situation that is responsible for
the death of so many cats annually? Reducing shelter intake is the most
effective way of reducing euthanasia, and 9 strategies are proposed that would
save cat lives in shelters and pounds. </span></div>
<div class="Standard">
<br /></div>
<div class="Standard">
<b><span style="color: black; font-size: 14.0pt;">Strategy 1:
Transparency of shelter and pound performance</span></b></div>
<div class="Standard">
<b><span style="color: black;">Facts supporting the strategy</span></b></div>
<div class="Standard">
The RSPCA has state and national data available on their
website, the Lost Dogs Home has data available in their annual report (on
website), and the Animal Welfare League (Qld) has data on website, but many
other welfare agencies do not have data readily available to the public.
Publically available data for individual council pound performance is only available
in Victoria, and are listed on each council website under their Dog and Cat
Management Plan. NSW has combined data for the whole state available through
the Department of Premier and Cabinet, but individual council data are not
available. The SA Dog and Cat Management Board publishes on their website
combined data for councils in their annual report, but this does not include
numbers euthanased. They also have combined data for councils and animal
welfare agencies, but this is not on the website, and confidentiality
agreements prevent release of individual agency data. There is no other states
currently with data available publically. Double counting of intake occurs in
most states, and occurs when councils have contracts with animal welfare
agencies and both report the same animals as intake (Chua and Rand, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">unpublished data)</i>. </div>
<div class="Standard">
<br /></div>
<div class="Standard">
<b>Why would transparency make a difference?</b></div>
<div class="Standard">
Transparency is important for two reasons. Firstly, how do
you know where you want to be, if you do not know where you currently are, or
where you were? And how do you estimate resources needed, and where they need
to be directed, if, as a community, you do not know where performance is
optimal, and where it is suboptimal and costing lives?</div>
<div class="Standard">
<br /></div>
<div class="Standard">
Secondly, there are numerous examples where public knowledge
of the poor outcome for impounded animals has resulted in public pressure and
involvement in the community, resulting in the shelter or pound embracing
practices which save lives. The power of people to initiate change is well
recognised, and transparency together with community edutcation has the
potential to save more lives than most other strategies.</div>

</span></span></span>In all states and territories, a government-mandated
cat (and dog) management plan is publically available on every council website
which includes key data such as intake, reclaim, re-home, transfers,
euthanased, and foster/in care. This is similar to the Victorian model, but
includes more reporting categories for outcome. It should also indicate what
pound functions are outsourced and to whom.</div>

provided to the RSPCA for owner-surrendered cats indicated that 87% of adult

shelters are kittens. Of cats entering RSPCA shelters nationally between
2006-2010, 47% were adult and 53% were kittens (Alberthson <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">et al</i>, 2013, and Alberthson, 2014). <span style="mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Of adults, </span>47% were owned, and

<div class="Standard">
<span style="color: black;">In USA, approximately 68% of
litters are unplanned (New <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">et al., </i>2000),
and reasons given included prohibitive cost of desexing or the inconvenience,
cat had undetected heat, owner thought kitten was too young, or the owner
believed a litter was good for the cat or kids. When owners were asked the
question, was a cat better off if she has one litter before being 'fixed', 57%
did not know the correct answer (Scarlett, 2008) .</span></div>

<div class="Standard">
<span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;">Although
a high percentage of owned cats are desexed in Australia ( > </span><span style="color: black;">90%), 30-70% are not sterilized before 6 to 12 months, </span><span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">and 12-20% in

example, in a Western Australian study of cats presented for discounted microchipping
in 2012 and 2013, only 49% and 28% of cats respectively, under 2 years old were
desexed, whereas 93% and 97% of cats aged at least 2 years were desexed
(Johnson <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">et al,</i> 2014). This consistent
with the finding that while most owned cats in Australia are eventually
desexed, for many cats, it is performed too late to prevent at least one litter
of kittens being produced.<span style="color: black;"></span></div>
<div class="Standard">
<br /></div>
<div class="Standard">
<span style="color: black;">Strategies are needed to reduce
this 'spey delay' in owned queens, with the message that having a litter is not
good for the cat, not good for the kids, the kitten is not too young by 8 weeks

<div class="Standard">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: black;">Facts supported mandated desexing</span></b><span style="color: black;"></span></div>
<div class="Standard">
<span style="color: black;">ACT has mandated desexing of all
dogs and cats by 6 months of age. However, when national RSPCA data were
analysed, ACT had the lowest prevalence of desexing of kittens (< 6 months
of age) admitted to shelters of all states (3%), but had the second highest
percentage of desexed adult cat admissions, although this represented only 61% of
all adult admissions (stray and owned), and 81% owned-surrendered<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>adults.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>This suggests owners eventually comply, but it is too late to prevent a
litter.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If desexing is mandated, for two
reasons, it would likely be most effective if it was by 4 months of age.
Firstly, kittens can reach puberty by 16 weeks of age, and secondly, it encourages
veterinarians to include desexing in the initial health program for cats - <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>vaccinate, vaccinate and “book in for spey 2
weeks later”, rather than “call us in 2 months”, which may result in cat owners
not getting around to desexing before the cat is pregnant.</span></div>
<div class="Standard">
<br /></div>
<div class="Standard">
<span style="color: black;">However, there are several challenges.
Currently, most veterinarians are not trained in early-aged desexing (8-16
weeks of age), only a small minority of veterinary staff in universities
teaching desexing advocate it for client-owned cats (Jupe <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">et al</i>, unpublished data), and it typically requires an additional
week of student training in surgery to gain skills in early-age desexing, which
is very costly, at a time most veterinary schools in Australia have budget deficits.
Animal welfare agencies need to partner with veterinary schools to provide
training in early-age desexing to undergraduate veterinary students so they
graduate with competency in early-age desexing.</span></div>
<div class="Standard">
<br /></div>
<div class="Standard">
<span style="color: black;">Mandated licensing of cat breeders
and mandated desexing of cats from breeders is unlikely to be cost-effective in
reducing shelter intake and euthanasia, given that pure-bred cats represent
only minority of owned cats (Headey, 2006), and only 5% of cat admissions and
3% of cats euthanased in RSPCA shelters nationally are purebred (Alberthson <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">et al</i>, 2013, and Alberthson, 2014), </span></div>

are provided some care, usually food, by people who do not perceive they own

33% of phone respondents said they owned a cat, but 22% fed a cat that was not

Similar statistics were found in South Australia and USA where 27% and 25% of
households respectively, feed a cat they do not perceive they own. In Ireland, the
practice was equally as common as owning a cat (11% of population). The population
of ‘semi-owned” cats is estimated to be equal to 2/3rds of the owned cat
population. However, in contrast to owned cats, only 20% of these semi-owned
cats were desexed (</span><span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-font-kerning: 0pt;">Toukhsati,

appear to be very effective (Alberthson 2014), and given that any legislative
change is costly (it may exceed $1million), this may not be the most
cost-effective strategy. Responsible owners have their cats desexed without
legislation, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">laisse faire</i> owners do
not, however, they also may not comply with legislation, and mandatory desexing
legislation is not effective for people who do not perceive themselves as cat
owners, although they are providing some care for a cat. Targeted desexing for
cats has been shown to be effective, and without more evidence, the
recommendation is to put resources into targeted desexing. Any combination of
low-cost desexing clinics run by animal welfare agencies, desexing through
participating veterinary clinics (subsidized by government and animal welfare
agencies), and mobile vans run by animal welfare agencies are likely to be
effective. If existing surgery facilities do not exist in the animal welfare
agency, coopting existing veterinary clinics may the most cost-effective,
because the building and surgery suites already exist, and cat owners develop a
relationship with the veterinarian for ongoing health issues.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Blacktown council’s experience was that $100

of low- cost community microchipping locations, which also make it easy to
check and update owner details, would be a more effective strategy for
increasing accuracy of microchip data, rather than legislation that requires
database information be changed at the point of sale or give-away. However, if the
cost of changing the legislation was minimal, implementation of both strategies
would likely be better than either one alone. Social marketing messages about
how to check for the presence of a microchip and how to update contact details,
could also be trialled to determine the cost-effectiveness. Microchip database
companies should also be encouraged to send regular reminders to clients to
update details, for example using text messages or emails providing a reminder
and a link to update details. There are also opportunity for Australia Post and
energy companies to provide a community service by asking people when they move
and get electricity connected, if they would like their contact details to be

<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: "Comic Sans MS";">Some council pounds in Australia kill 80 to 90% cats, and
others 7%. There are many examples from USA and some from Australia (eg RSPCA
at Wacol, AWL Gold Coast), where introducing a range of strategies to reduce
intake and increase live release has had marked impact in reducing euthanasia.
For example, Jacksonville Animal Control received 34,000 animals and killed
23,000, but 10 years later, after a name change to Jacksonville Animal Care and
Protection, and introducing a range of strategies aimed at reducing intake and
increasing adoptions, only 2,000 animals were euthanased. However, many shelter
and pound managers are unware of strategies that can markedly reduce
euthanasia. </span></div>
<div class="Standard">
<br /></div>
<div class="Standard">
<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: "Comic Sans MS";">For example, many council pounds have little or no
foster programs, which could be organised with the assistance of the community.
Similarly, transferring to rescue groups and animal welfare agencies could be
better utilized by most councils with poor outcome data. Although council
pounds have a requirement to take in animals, they could engage surrendering
owners to help find a solution for their pet, such as finding a new home or
participating in behavioural training classes for their cat. Similarly, assisting
people to find a solution for a semi-owned cat would decrease intake, which has
a powerful effect on decreasing euthanasia. At Jacksonsville, asking people if
they would hold the animal until a place became available, and in the meantime
consider keeping it or finding a home for it, resulted in approximately 30% of
people taking their animal home again (<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">per
comm </i>Rick DuCharme, FCNMHP). For animal welfare agencies which are not
required to take in all animals, limiting intake to only the number that can be
cared for dramatically reduces euthanasia, for example, RSPCA Qld Wacol. Erie
SPCA put all people surrendering stray cats on a wait list, which dramatically
decreased intake because with counselling, 14% of people decided to keep the
cat and 45% found a new home for it, resulting in no treatable stray cats being
euthanased. Other strategies aimed at keeping animals in their home can be
utilized such as a food bank for those who cannot afford pet food, behavior
counseling, general counseling on solutions for their pet, assistance finding
affordable pet-friendly housing, and assistance with affordable health care.</span></div>

for location and time of year, and with cost limited to less than $20 if the

the number of cats in the shelter, which assists in reducing the number of cats

<span style="mso-bidi-font-family: "Comic Sans MS";">For people
wanting to surrender a cat, provide the outcome of a quick adoptability test on
entry, and use it to inform the surrenderer of the realistic chance of rehoming
of their pet, based on assessment of its behaviour, health, and cuteness.
Because more than half the stray cats entering RSPCA shelters are fed for 1
month or more by the surrenderer (Zito <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">et
al., </i>unpublished), many of these people have an attachment to the cat, and
if informed of the high likelihood of euthanasia, they may be more engaged to
find an alternative solution for the cat. </span></div>
<div class="Standard">
<br /></div>
<div class="Standard">
<span style="mso-bidi-font-family: "Comic Sans MS";">Fast tracking
the most adoptable cats will save lives - as quickly as possible put the most
adoptable cats into the adoption pool, because this is proven to increase total
number adopted and decrease the number euthanased - even for cats that are
difficult to rehome. Increasing rehoming opportunities increases the number of
animals adopted, for example, through petshops, and special adoption events,
potentially held in conjunction with other community events that attract animal
lovers such as agricultural or horse shows, polo events etc. In addition,
special promotions of reduced price adoptions are associated with increased
adoptions, without increased risk of subsequent surrender (Zito <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">et al,</i> 2015).</span></div>

<div class="Standard">
<span style="mso-bidi-font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;">Stray adult cats are a h</span><span style="mso-bidi-font-family: "Comic Sans MS";">eterogeneous
population, and have the worst live release statistics in shelters and pounds.
They comprise lost but owned cats, semi-owned cats, and feral cats. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The following findings should be considered
when considering strategies for l<span style="mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;">ost, <span style="mso-bidi-font-style: italic;">owned adult cats. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>C</span>ats are<b> </b></span>3 times more
likely to “disappear” from household than dogs, and only approximately 4% of cats
are reclaimed from shelters and pounds across Australia (Chua unpublished,
Alberthson <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">et al., </i>2013, 2014).<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>In a US study, 66% of lost cats were found
because they returned home and only 7% of lost cats were found via a call or
visit to shelter. Cats are at least 13 times more likely to return home by
non-shelter means than by shelter means. Most owned cats that have strayed are
within 5 houses of their owner. </span></div>
<div class="Standard">
<br /></div>
<div class="Standard">
<span style="mso-bidi-font-family: "Comic Sans MS";">Free-living
cats are no less healthy than pet cats, and have ideal body condition (not obese)
(Scott <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">et al., </i>2002). Less than 1% of
100,000 free-living stray and feral cats trapped in trap-neuter and return
programs were deemed too unhealthy to be returned to the field, and were
euthanased as a result of debilitating conditions, trauma or infectious disease
(Wallace <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">et al</i>, 2006, Million Cat
Challenge). </span></div>

<div class="Standard">
<span style="mso-bidi-font-family: "Comic Sans MS";">Trapping
to kill is not the solution to decrease numbers of unowned cats and kittens. It
is ineffective and costly. The cost of eradicating cats from Australia would
exceed $1.5 trillion and is greater than the Australian GDP, so is clearly
unaffordable and impractical. Money spent by councils trapping and killing is largely
ineffective, because only a small of the population (typically 2-5%) is killed,
whereas for effective population control this would have to increase to 50% or
more.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Importantly, low-level culling of
feral cats in Tasmania has been shown to increase cat numbers rather than
decrease them (Lazenby, 2014). A more effective strategy is to identify areas
of high value with endangered wildlife, and fence these off and remove all
introduced pest species. Removal of only cats may not be beneficial to the
environment if other introduced species are present such as rats, rabbits and
foxes. For example on Macquarie Island, where cats initially were removed, it had
a worse environmental effect, because of the marked increase of the rabbit
population (Bergstrom <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">et al., </i>2009). Similarly,
</span>in New Zealand, following eradication of cats from Little Barrier Island,
Pacific rat numbers increased, with a subsequent increase in predation of
seabirds by rats</div>

that shelter, neuter and return works</span></b></div>
<div class="Standard">
<span style="mso-bidi-font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;">In shelter-neuter and return programs for stray cats, </span><span style="mso-bidi-font-family: "Comic Sans MS";">only medically untreatable cats
are euthanased. Cats which are not adopted and would otherwise be euthanased,
are neutered, ear-tipped, ideally microchipped, and returned to within 300
meters of capture. Information to advise neighbours on the release program should
be distributed to houses in the vicinity, and contain information on how to
contact the shelter if there were concerns about the released cat. In the San
Jose animal shelter in USA, over the 4 years after shelter-neuter and release
was implemented, kitten and cat intake decreased 29% and euthanasia decreased
from 70% to 23%, with 96.6% of healthy stray/feral cats saved (10,080 cats). Euthanasia
in the shelter from upper respiratory disease declined 99%, and dead cat pick
up off streets declined 20%. During the same period there was no change in dog
intake or euthanasia statistics.</span></div>

<span style="mso-bidi-font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;">However, s</span><span style="mso-bidi-font-family: "Comic Sans MS";">helter-neuter
and return is illegal in Australia because unowned cats are considered pests,
and it is illegal to release a pest species, because they are perceived as having
an adverse effect on wildlife. Nevertheless, cats can have<span style="mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;"> negative, neutral or positive </span>effect

wildlife population. A Perth study investigated native mammal diversity across
3 bushland sites, which for >10 years had either banned cats, required cats to
be kept inside overnight and to wear a bell, and one site had no regulations
regarding cats. Numbers of the most abundant medium-sized mammals (brushtail
possums and southern brown bandicoots) were similar across all sites. A smaller
mardo <i>Antechinus flavipes,</i> which is highly susceptible to cat predation,
was most abundant at the unregulated cat site. The conclusions from this study
were that owned cats adjacent to bushland were not having a negative effect on
native mammals, and that density of vegetation was likely positive factor in
determining mammal density (Grayson, Calver & Lymbery, 2007).</span></div>

found with increasing housing density, and with increasing distance from

Importantly, trapping and killing unowned cats may lead to
an increased cat population, rather than decreased one i.e. the opposite effect
from that expected, This paradoxical effect on the target population has
occurred in other species (Lazenby, 2014). In a recent Tasmanian study, cat
numbers increased as much as three times (increased between 75% and 210%)<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>during the period cats were trapped and
killed, but stabilized to previous numbers once the program stopped (Lazenby,
2014). Therefore, the trapping and killing of community cats as performed by
most councils in Australia, may be counter-productive. Not only is it costly,
it may increase problem cat numbers, and therefore, represents poor use of
municipal funds. Although Australian law currently prevents TNR, if permission
was gained to conduct these programs in areas contributing to high intake of
stray cats into pounds, it would be a major advance in reducing euthanasia of
healthy cats in pounds and shelters in Australia, and potentially also benefit
native wildlife. This hypothesis should be tested by piloting such programs in
controlled areas.</div>

Winnie had been diagnosed with Addison disease, it seemed he was responding well to the treatment, but last week he developed terrible back pain. Winnie was such a beautiful dog with a big gentle soul. we tried very hard to find the source of the pain, but it was elusive. Even with High doses of methadone, and Tramol, Winnie was still in a lot of pain. Winnie was very Brave, but it was heart rendering to see him in visible pain from the back injury and Wednesday the hardest decision was made to let Winnie go and he was put to sleep. We are all very sad for the loss.<br />

Communication with world is vital to success of any mission and this is why I have chosen this company to work to get my mission achieved of helping people with their pets, particularly in the area of pet loss. I also did an interview today with the editor of "Companion" a magazine for small animal vets, about helping vets with their grieving clients.

I know how she hates thunder storms. Later in the afternoon the vet nurses told me Rebecca had rung to say that Ruff Ruff was missing. Rebecca had come home to see if Ruff Ruff was okay, but she found that Ruff Ruff was already gone. Rebecca went looking for Ruff Ruff but Ruff ruff could not be found. About 4.00pm I recieved a phone call from BCC to say that someone had found Ruff Ruff in Wood ridge about 20km away! That sounded incredible, how could Ruff Ruff gone so Far. They gave me a ladies number to ring. She said that she had found Ruff Ruff running around outside her unit and had no idea how Ruff Ruff would have got there. But then we got talking and found that she had been working at a house across the street from where we live. Looking closey at Ruff Ruff there was several grease mark and some skin abrasions. Ruff Ruff was defineatly not inside the car as this lady drove home. so the only reasonable conclusion we can see is that Ruff Ruff Climbed under the bonnet of this car to escape the thunderstorm and stayed there as this lady drove over 20km home. We are very lucky to have Ruff Ruff back alive.people and petshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08983977087115115997noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4154871703580448676.post-47478357540787252602010-08-19T04:16:00.000-07:002010-08-19T04:16:34.711-07:00Diagnosed a Heartworm postive dog today.This afternoon I did a heartworm test on a 8 year old staffy. He had missed 3 years of heartworm treatment when his owners where battiling cancer. He was a healthy dog except for some tartar and plaque on his teeth. I do so many heartworm test and so many come back negative. Even when I was working at the pound, testing abandoned dogs, heartworm was rare. So I was quite suprised to come back to my heartworm test and find a positive reading. I also had a look at the blood under the microscope and found some microfliara, I have not seem any of those for a long time. The lady owner was quite upset but is keen to treat the dog, and she booked him on Monday for further tests.<iframe align="left" frameborder="0" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" scrolling="no" src="http://rcm.amazon.com/e/cm?t=petsandpeop0a-20.&o=1&p=8&l=bpl&asins=B00061MX6W&fc1=000000&IS2=1&lt1=_blank&m=amazon&lc1=0000FF&bc1=000000&bg1=FFFFFF&f=ifr" style="height: 245px; padding-right: 10px; padding-top: 5px; width: 131px;"></iframe>people and petshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08983977087115115997noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4154871703580448676.post-88760094846827618682010-07-28T05:59:00.000-07:002010-07-28T06:01:09.313-07:00Stupid Goverment Decision To Kill Amstaffs but set Pit bull Free!<div class="MsoNormal"><b><span lang="EN-AU"><iframe align="left" frameborder="0" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" scrolling="no" src="http://rcm.amazon.com/e/cm?t=petsandpeop0a-20.&o=1&p=8&l=bpl&asins=B0015WNJ7I&fc1=000000&IS2=1&lt1=_blank&m=amazon&lc1=0000FF&bc1=000000&bg1=FFFFFF&f=ifr" style="height: 245px; padding-right: 10px; padding-top: 5px; width: 131px;"></iframe>Gold Coast City Council and the Hon Minister Desley Boyle set to Kill all American Staffordshire terriers and set Pit bull terriers free.</span></b><span lang="EN-AU"></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-AU">Are the American Staffordshire terrier and the American Pit Bull terrier one breed or are they two different breeds of dog?</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-AU">It is generally accepted that the Amstaff and Pit bull came from a common blood line or stock, descending from the Staffordshire bull terrier originally.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-AU">The split happened when the UKC, United Kennel Club, preferred their Pit bull stock to be bred for gameness or performance and other dog groups wanted to move towards conformation and show qualities.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-AU">The American Staffordshire terrier was then line bred with the best of what was available within their registries to only other registered American Staffordshire terriers for the next 90 years, keeping this breed pure to the original blood line.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-AU">What I found out here in Australia, at least, because there is no national registry for the American Pit Bull terrier and as this breed is not recognised by the Australian National Kennel Club or groups like the CCCQ ect, owners and breeders had an open hand at what they were allowed to do in regards to improving or enhancing the look of their particular dogs.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-AU">When looking at individual breeders and their dogs, one will boast at how larger their blood lines head is or another will claim that theirs are the biggest most muscular Pit bulls in Australia, now looking nothing in anyway like the original American Pit Bull terrier from the USA, or in fact nothing like the original imported dogs to Australia.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-AU">With the introduction of the BITSA DNA dog breed identification test, many American Pit Bull terrier owners were horrified that their secret cross breeding program would come to light exposing how their dogs came to be so individual and distinct from the original imported blood stock to Australia.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-AU">After completing now over 30 DNA tests and working with the DNA lab in Victoria it had become indisputably clear that many of the once known American Pit Bull terriers are now showing to be nothing but lookalike cross breed dogs, holding any number of breeds unlike the original cross breed combination which was the American Pit Bull terrier.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-AU">The American Pit Bull terriers breeders are not totally to blame for altering their breed or dilution of their blood line, as the prohibition on importing blood stock and the banning and destruction of good breeding stock by the Qld Governments BSL law 17A forced many if not all dogs to go underground. What choice did dog owners have? The blame rests still with this Qld Government who must hold part of the blame for <u>all</u> the consequences of this badly thought-out law.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-AU">With the American Staffordshire terrier, the BITSA DNA identification test shows very clearly, scientifically and without any doubt that a suspected dog either is a pure breed American Staffordshire terrier or an American Staffordshire terrier cross breed dog, showing what it was cross bred with, or just a lookalike cross breed, showing what dogs made up the lookalike combination.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-AU">With the court case run on the 29<sup>th</sup> of March, 2010, BRISBANE SUPREME Court. CHIVERS Vs Gold Coast City Council. Ms Chivers went to trial to fulfil a magistrate order asking her to prove her dog was an American Staffordshire terrier so she may be allowed to return her dog to her home on the Gold Coast.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-AU">I was not only successful in proving this point uncontested, I also was able to prove that the method of identification used by councils in South East Qld in identification of suspected Pit bull terriers was knowingly false, and that the Qld Government staff, (Animal Control Officers for respective Councils) held no formal or academic qualifications clearly showing they could and would never be considered an expert, in any field in dog breed identification or experts in general under the rule of law. </span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-AU">However in a final twist, at the end of the trial, the GCCC Barrister entered a new submission, which was never presented to my Barrister until the very end of the trial, changing their whole point of view, stating they had admitted over the past 7 years they had got things wrong and now seen the light and found the truth.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-AU">Despite presenting expert evidence in some 15 to 20 trials, (Dino Da Fre Vs Logan City Council..ect) that the American Staffordshire terrier and the American Pit Bull terrier were two separate breeds and that with the training of their expert Debora Pomeroy and the 22 point checklist they could without any reservation prove that the dogs were two separate breeds, they now contend that they are the same breed of dog.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-AU">As this was submitted at the end of the trial, My Barrister without prior notification had 10 minutes to come up with a reply, thus leaving it to the judge to base his decision on what was before him, the court ruled that an American Staffordshire terrier and the American Pit Bull terrier were the same breed.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-AU">My Barrister was clearly blindsided, the rules or principles of natural justice, also known as procedural fairness, were developed to ensure that decision-making is fair and reasonable. Put simply, natural justice involves decision-makers informing people of the case against them or their interests, giving them a right to be heard (the ‘hearing’ rule), not having a personal interest in the outcome (the rule against ‘bias’), and acting only on the basis of logically probative evidence (the ‘no evidence’ rule).” And in a way the judge showed he knew this by his comments and not awarding any costs a clear indication that one side did not follow the rules.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-AU">How does this affect dog owners?<span style="color: #444444;"> </span>As the Gold Coast City Council so cleverly tricked a Supreme Court Judge in giving a false ruling, by disobeying the rules or principles of natural justice, their win has given all Pit bull terrier owners a free get out of jail card. I will explain.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><b><span lang="EN-AU">The GCCC’s win that American Staffordshire terriers and American Pit bull terriers are one and the same.</span></b><span lang="EN-AU"></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><b><i><span lang="EN-AU">Here's the Kicker</span></i></b><span lang="EN-AU">, there is a DNA test for the Amstaff, 100% accurate, the same test that all the American Staffordshire terrier clubs use to check the validity of a suspected members true breed, the same test the ANKC and the CCCQ use, that is the BITSA Dog Breed Identification DNA test.<br />
<br />
Therefore there is a DNA test for Pit bulls...the Amstaff DNA test, so <b><u>any</u></b> other dog that does not conform to the Pit bull DNA test (Amstaff DNA test) must <b><u>not</u></b> be a Pit bull terrier.<br />
<br />
<b><i>With me so far....</i></b></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-AU">Kill all the Amstaffs, a group of the dog community that have never caused any problems just so a dog called Tango could not be returned to the Gold Coast and win at all costs, has in effect made the GCCC set the Pit bulls free to breed/grow in number and really become a problem as the Pit bull terrier will never pass the Amstaff test.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-AU">Just think, when the Restricted dog owners (Gold Coast and South East Qld) find out that all they have to do is send a DNA test to the lab and should the results come back their dog is not an <b>American Staffordshire terrier, </b>they then, don’t have an American Pit bull terrier, no need to put the signs on their gates, no extra fees, compensation for the harassment /desexing their dogs, then the need for an explanation to why the GCCC falsely identified their pet wrongly in the first place?<br />
<br />
<b><i>Wow, Gold Coast City Council how smart do you feel now!</i></b></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-AU">The QLD Government’s Honourable Desley Boyle, Minister for Local Government and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Partnerships who has had two terms as Minister for Local Government over the past 7 years, and Mr Logan Timms, Senior Policy Officer of the Department of Infrastructure and Planning, have been placed in this situation by the GCCC. They are in a stalemate situation; it’s finally up to the dog owners in QLD to write to the Minister demanding that she fix this problem immediately, sack the GCCC or resign enabling hopefully another Minister to come up with a competent solution to fix this problem.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-AU">There is currently a case on the GCCC "Whereo" and "Mo" who were both placed under a destruction order by the Gold Coast City Council, Animal Management (Cats and Dog) Act 2008, section 127, Destruction Order.2010/01, Both dogs have been tested for Breed identification, known as BITSA which you are familiar with, and the results are:</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-AU">Mo: Boston Terrier/ Golden Retriever<br />
Whereo: Staffordshire Bull terrier/ Boxer<br />
<br />
Both do not hold the cross breeding to be American Pit bull terriers (or American Staffordshire terriers either, same thing) so how is it that they were identified as American Pit bull terriers or restricted dogs or how have they broken the law?</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-AU">The first of many back cases to come forward.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-AU">The Gold Coast City Council's way of fixing a problem is to make the whole thing much, much, worse, <u>just out of spite</u>. The Gold Coast City Council, head of Animal Control Geoff Irwin, has over stepped his authority (Abuse of Power). (Putting out fires with petrol)<br />
<br />
<b>This Supreme Court decision has in effect, with the introduction of BITSA DNA testing, made the BSL section of the Animal Management (Cats and Dog) Act 2008, unworkable, therefore powerless and Ineffectual.</b></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-AU">Just to show you, that not only do we know that the DNA test works here in Australia, but even in the USA their are other affected dog owners who have problems with councils trying to falsely identify their pets as Pit bulls.<br />
<br />
Bad luck the whole world uses the internet and asked for help.<br />
<br />
Open this and play from half way through, 3:25, Logan Timms, I think you will get the point.<br />

Make sure the sound is on.<br />

I have heard of stories where dog know when their owners are coming home, it certainly something you could not teach a dog. There was something special about this dog, The owner could not teach him to play fetch, but Hatchi knew when his owner was coming home and would always wait. I love dogs for their sense of loyalty, a sense of loyalty in dogs is often greater than it is in Humans and that is why we love them so much.

<br />
Obviously each of us love our pooch dearly, and want to create the most loving home environment, yet lately, what experts are calling ‘petocracies’ are becoming more and more prevalent in Australian households. A Petocracy is a pet-democracy…where your furry friend has equal (or sometimes more) say in the way the household is run than its human inhabitants. To find out if your home is a petocracy, take our fun, easy quiz and discover whether you’ve been usurped as ruler of your roost!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
It’s bedtime. You:<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
a) Put your dog outside for the night<br />
<br />
b) Send him to bed in his dog-bed in the laundry<br />
<br />
c) Let him curl up at the foot of your bed…he’s a good foot warmer!<br />
<br />
d) Plump up the pillow in your bed that he likes to sleep on and make sure he has most of the blankets.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Your dog’s diet consists of:<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
a) Dry food only<br />
<br />
b) Mostly dry food, with chicken necks, bones and other morsels as occasional treats<br />
<br />
c) A mixture of dry and wet food, with daily treats and a specially-designed eating plan to keep him interested and fit.<br />
<br />
d) It depends on the day of the week. He likes steak on Mondays, liver on Tuesdays, and I bake him little foie gras biscuits on Wednesday….<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
How often do you walk your dog?<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
a) Two or three times a week<br />
<br />
b) Once a day, with a bit of a run in the dog park.<br />
<br />
c) Twice a day, being sure to change up the locations so he stays interested.<br />
<br />
d) However often he feels like it. When he is too tired to walk I carry him in my doggy backpack so he can still experience the scenery.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The rules you have for your dog are:<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
a) Very strict—dogs need discipline otherwise they get carried away.<br />
<br />
b) Fairly strict—he knows who is boss but sometimes gets away with things for being so cute!<br />
<br />
c) Quite lax—he knows how to get what he wants by using his puppy charm.<br />
<br />
d) No watching Law and Order (the theme song bothers him), no staying out past 9pm (he gets lonely) and no chocolate in the house (it’s dangerous for dogs)….Oh, you meant what rules do I have for the dog….<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Now for the tally…<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Mostly As:<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
You’re from the old school, and believe that dogs need to firmly know their place and respect their masters. You’re diligent in setting up boundaries for your pet and value obedience, loyalty and good behaviour. This is a perfectly acceptable attitude towards dog ownership, just remember to let your hair down and have some fun with your pooch…after all, it’s what they’re best at!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Mostly Bs:<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
While discipline is important to you, you recognise the importance of a pooch needing to fit in with the family’s lifestyle, not the other way around. You can’t help but indulge your furry friend every once in a while and you like to be organised in your approach to having a pet.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Mostly Cs:<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Your dog is an important member of your family and you consider its needs as a high priority. You work hard to ensure your pooch’s happiness and probably sacrifice a lot of time to its care…which is worth it for you because of the love and affection you get back in return.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Mostly Ds:<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Oh, Mostly Ds, what are we going to do with you? You’ve given complete control over to your canine commander–whoops, sorry—companion, but we’ll forgive you because, well, we love dogs too! Just make sure you try to set some boundaries, as dogs do respect leadership and need to know what behaviour is acceptable.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Don’t Forget!<br />

Best comment winsThis is a quiz from Bayer about what kind of pet house hold you live in. Read the article below and leave a comment on the Bayer website.<br />
<br />
I would have to say that I would mostly be a B cat owner, my cat lives in the garage, as he does not like our Jack Russell. We love Aussie our cat, but he has to fit into our busy household with 3 children, and two dogs. Aussie now mostly lives in our front garden and comes in of a night time to the garage. The best thing about this is Aussie often greets me first when I drive home, I open the car door and he jumps in for a pat and a head rub.<iframe align="left" frameborder="0" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" scrolling="no" src="http://rcm.amazon.com/e/cm?t=petsandpeop0a-20.&o=1&p=8&l=bpl&asins=B000P0J07Y&fc1=000000&IS2=1&lt1=_blank&m=amazon&lc1=0000FF&bc1=000000&bg1=FFFFFF&f=ifr" style="align: left; height: 245px; padding-right: 10px; padding-top: 5px; width: 131px;"></iframe><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Last night he actually came inside and sat on my lap as I watched TV. Ruff Ruff was hiding in my bedroom, so Aussie felt comfortable in the house, it was great to have a purring creature on my lap, for change than a panting one.<br />

<br />
a) He knows where his bowl is, and it is always full<br />
<br />
b) You change his water regularly to keep it fresh<br />
<br />
c) After each drink you tip out the bowl, clean it, and refill it with purified water<br />
<br />
d) He doesn’t like his bowl so you strategically place cups around the house and leave the bathroom tap dripping…that’s his favourite.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The rules you have for your cat are:<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
a) Very strict—animals need discipline otherwise they get carried away.<br />
<br />
b) Fairly strict—he knows who is boss but sometimes gets away with things for being so cute!<br />
<br />
c) Quite lax—he knows how to get what he wants by using his kitten charm.<br />
<br />
d) No watching Law and Order (the theme song bothers him), no staying out past 9pm (he gets lonely) and no dogs in the house (naturally)….Oh, you meant what rules do I have for the cat….<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Now for the tally…<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Mostly As:<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
You’re from the old school, and believe that cats need to firmly know their place and respect their masters. You’re diligent in setting up boundaries for your pet and value obedience, loyalty and good behaviour. This is a perfectly acceptable attitude towards cat ownership, just remember to let your hair down and have some fun with your moggie…after all, it’s what they’re best at!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Mostly Bs:<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
While discipline is important to you, you recognise the importance of a pet needing to fit in with the family’s lifestyle, not the other way around. You can’t help but indulge your furry friend every once in a while and you like to be organised in your approach to having a pet.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Mostly Cs:<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Your cat is an important member of your family and you consider its needs as a high priority. You work hard to ensure your pet’s happiness and probably sacrifice a lot of time to its care…which is worth it for you because of the love and affection you get back in return.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Mostly Ds:<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Oh, Mostly Ds, what are we going to do with you? You’ve given complete control over to your kitty commander–whoops, sorry—companion, but we’ll forgive you because, well, we love cats too! Just make sure you try to set some boundaries, as pets do respect leadership and need to know what behaviour is acceptable.<br />

It is beautiful story about a family losing their pet dog "Charlie" and how as a family they dealt with the issues and the memory of a beloved family pet. The book is beautifully illustrated by Philippa Morton. The launch was a significant gathering of people who are concerned about pet loss. I met Dr David Foote, who is a vet that also does pet loss counselling, and I met Dr Tim Vivian another vet concerned about pet loss. He recalled a story where a upon the euthanasia of the pet, the child asked whether he would see the dog in heaven and before he could think of an answer the mother spoke up to say that they where Catholic and we don't believe that dogs go to heaven. I think this was a terrible thing for the mother to say to the child, the child's one comforting thought was denied by the mother. As a catholic I certainly believe there is room for belief in a heaven that contains our pets. There is a great book written by Jack Wintz " Will I see my dog in heaven"<iframe align="left" frameborder="0" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" scrolling="no" src="http://rcm.amazon.com/e/cm?t=petsandpeop0a-20.&o=1&p=8&l=bpl&asins=1557255687&fc1=000000&IS2=1&lt1=_blank&m=amazon&lc1=0000FF&bc1=000000&bg1=FFFFFF&f=ifr" style="height: 245px; padding-right: 10px; padding-top: 5px; width: 131px;"></iframe> that outlines these beliefs. There was also a small speech by Dr Paula Barrett, A professor of educational Psychology, who explained that pet loss can be a very significant part of child's life and if handled correctly it provides transformational experience. I think Memory flowers would help children and parents do this.<br />
<br />
The launch was a great celebration of two women working together to produce a great resource. The location was the <a href="http://www.rawspace.org/about_us_contacts.php">Raw Gallery</a> a great little inner city spot to have a few nibbles with a glass of wine. I wish the book great success.

It seems like she is doing great things for the Black Rhino. This a great educational travel trip she has organized, I know several people who are going this year. I would love to be going sometime.<br />
<br />
See details below<br />
<br />
AUSTRALIAN VETERINARY WILDLIFE STUDY TOUR OF ZIMBABWE AND BOTSWANA<br />
<br />
<br />
Facilitated for Edutravel by the SAVE FOUNDATION of Australia <br />
<br />
Sunday 5 September – Sunday 19 September<br />
<br />
(with additional options in Botswana and South Africa until Sunday 26 September)<br />
<br />
This educational study tour will be led by Dr Helen Jones and Dr Ian Fairnie, both of whom are former National Presidents of the Australian Veterinary Association. Participants will meet with veterinarians in Zimbabwe as well as officers from the Parks and Wildlife department, and staff working for not-for-profit organisations active in wildlife conservation.<br />
<br />
The program in Zimbabwe will be facilitated by the President of the SAVE FOUNDATION of Australia, Mr Nicholas Duncan, who has dedicated his life to saving the Black Rhino in Zimbabwe. He has visited Zimbabwe 53 times. The SAVE FOUNDATION of Australia has raised over $3.2 million donating the amount to buy field equipment, including eleven 4-wheel drive vehicles, 15 motor bikes, 15 outboard motors, 10 reconditioned engines and gearboxes, numerous sets of radios and spare parts for all of the above, that greatly increase anti-poaching efforts, and in the process saving not only rhinoceros, but also lions, leopards, hyenas, the African Painted Dog and elephants. Unlike many other non-profit making organisations, it is a totally voluntary foundation, with all its expenses - secretarial, communications, and travel - sponsored by a private company. It is one of the NGO’s with the lowest overheads in the world (less than 3%). On 18 June 2009, the Zimbabwe Council for Tourism (ZCT) awarded the SAVE FOUNDATION of Australia its Green Globe 21 Trophy for contribution to or action on the environment.<br />
<br />
HIGHLIGHTS: At each safari location, qualified guides and wildlife officers will take participants out to see and photograph giraffe, lion, elephants, baboon, buffalo, and possibly leopard, plus countless birds including carrion feeders. <br />
<br />
During the 6 days in Hwange National Park, participants will meet staff involved in anti-poaching and other conservation activities such as the tracking of lion and the African Painted Dog, and perhaps participate in the implanting of tracking devices.<br />
<br />
The final option sees the program finish in Cape Town for three nights and includes a visit to Robben Island where Nelson Mandela was held for 20 of the 27 years he spent as a prisoner. <br />
<br />
At all locations, where possible, meetings are planned with local private and government veterinarians, as well as wildlife conservation officers. <br />
<br />
ACCOMMODATIONS: After the first two nights in a Harare hotel, there will be two nights at Imire Safari Ranch and 5 nights in Hwange National Park in Zimbabwe with excellent accommodations with all meals and drinks provided. There will be two nights at the splendid and luxurious Victoria Falls Hotel where the program includes a helicopter ride above the falls, an elephant ride, and visits to lion and rhino conservation projects, as well as the morning markets. One night will be spent enjoying a Boma dinner – if you are “game”, after a sunset river cruise and open bar. The main program finishes with two nights at the Chobe Marina Lodge and for those continuing on the program in Botswana, there will be three nights at Xakanaxa Camp with all meals and drinks provided unless otherwise stated. <br />
<br />
COSTS: The program in Zimbabwe and an overnight visit to Chobe (Botswana) is estimated to cost $6995 of which approximately $2000 is international airfares from Australia to South Africa. An additional week in Botswana at Chobe National Park and the Okavanga Delta, and a 4-night visit to Cape Town in South Africa is estimated to cost an additional $3995<br />

We took him straight through to the consultation room and had a look at the eye. Apparently the dog had been running madly around the yard when he hit a stick that went straight into the dogs eye and he said all the white fluid came out. On examination all I could see was a Major defect in the cornea of the eye and blood filled chamber. I recommend they go straight to the eye specialist but he said they had very little money. Well the dog had probably already lost sight in the eye and we could do was to try and save the structure, we gave him pain relief and antibiotics drops. The owners where very upset and the young lad wanted to keep going outside to be sick. Our eyes are so precious and it is always very upsetting to lose an eye.<iframe align="left" frameborder="0" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" scrolling="no" src="http://rcm.amazon.com/e/cm?t=petsandpeop0a-20.&o=1&p=8&l=bpl&asins=B0026ZBF9M&fc1=000000&IS2=1&lt1=_blank&m=amazon&lc1=0000FF&bc1=000000&bg1=FFFFFF&f=ifr" style="height: 245px; padding-right: 10px; padding-top: 5px; width: 131px;"></iframe> The eye might fibrous or might become infected and have to be removed.people and petshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08983977087115115997noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4154871703580448676.post-82470248013129024992010-05-31T03:57:00.000-07:002010-06-02T22:22:18.609-07:00I Found a dog lying in the middle of the road just been hit by a car.I was on my way home tonight and came over the hill to find a dog lying in the middle of the road. It was still breathing, I pulled over to the side, the car behind me swerved quickly to miss the dog, the next car drove straight over the top of the dog. I ran out into the middle of the road and picked up the dog just before the next car came. I put the dog on the side of the road to have a look at him. He was still breathing and conscious, he had at least one fractured limb and I don't think he could feel his back legs. Two other people came running up to me. One guy had seen the dog being hit, it made the car swerve and he almost hit that car. The car that hit the dog did not stop. That guy knocked on the first door and people came out and they recognised the dog as belonging to a friend of theirs. They where not sure where the owner would be. They sent someone looking. Another person then said she probably would not have a car to take the dog to the emergency center or the money to fix it. So was there any point waiting for the owner, someone needed to take the dog to the emergency center. Their friends where just going off to work, I had to go and pick up my children from cubs. Someone rang RSPCA ambulance and they said they would come and pick up the dog. I asked one of the neighbours to get a blanket , I then wrapped the dog in the blanket and left the dog with the neighbours. I went and picked up my children from cubs, on the way home we stopped by and the ambulance was just leaving with the dog. I was a bit frustrated with how little I could do for the dog, but really the best thing to do was have the RSPCA take the dog.<a href="http://www.amazon.com/First-Aid-Dogs-Emergencies-Happen/dp/0140255419?ie=UTF8&tag=petsandpeop0a-20.&link_code=btl&camp=213689&creative=392969" target="_blank">First Aid for Dogs: What to do When Emergencies Happen</a><img alt="" border="0" height="1" src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=petsandpeop0a-20.&l=btl&camp=213689&creative=392969&o=1&a=0140255419" style="border: medium none ! important; margin: 0px ! important; padding: 0px ! important;" width="1" /><a href="http://www.amazon.com/First-Aid-Dogs-Emergencies-Happen/dp/0140255419?ie=UTF8&tag=petsandpeop0a-20.&link_code=bil&camp=213689&creative=392969" imageanchor="1" target="_blank"><img alt="First Aid for Dogs: What to do When Emergencies Happen" src="http://ws.amazon.com/widgets/q?MarketPlace=US&ServiceVersion=20070822&ID=AsinImage&WS=1&Format=_SL160_&ASIN=0140255419&tag=petsandpeop0a-20." /></a><img alt="" border="0" height="1" src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=petsandpeop0a-20.&l=bil&camp=213689&creative=392969&o=1&a=0140255419" style="border: medium none ! important; margin: 0px ! important; padding: 0px ! important;" width="1" />people and petshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08983977087115115997noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4154871703580448676.post-64623567775577402152010-05-10T03:19:00.000-07:002010-07-09T20:06:28.689-07:00Scoff StopperWe bought Rainbow, our Labrador a new dinner plate, the idea is to help our labrador eat slowly, and I think it is working very well. Normally she eats her food in about 10 seconds, now it takes her about 3 minutes. I think it only adds to her enjoyment of food. As a Labrador eating food is one of her greatest joys, and being able to extend it out makes a big difference. for more information <a href="http://www.scoffstopper.com.au/">http://www.scoffstopper.com.au/</a><br />

The neighbours looking after the dog had noticed the depression but they where unsure if it was there before. I told him to bring it down to have a look. When I looked I could see that there was a large depression, it was all from muscle waste, I open the dogs mouth to find a putrid smell, and I could just see a necrotic area at the back of the jaw, the jaw itself was also quite swollen. It could either be a foreign body or a tumour. So we had to admit the dog for further investigation, Under a general anaesthetic I could open the mouth wide open a see a large necrotic area in the corner of the jaw, we took an xray a could see a large area of enlargement around the jaw bone, it confirmed what I suspected that it was a bony cancer. I told the owner and he was very upset, and decieded to have the dog euthanasied, but he did not want to stay, he went and gave the dog a last hug and left. The dog (that had been sitting quietly all day) began to howl after the owner left. We then had to euthanize the dog. A very sad story.<br />

Now he was asking my advice did he have to <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">euthanise</span> the dog? Legally I do not think you have to, but you know you have dangerous dog on your hands and you could never be sure that it would never happen again. He <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">decided</span> to bring the dog down straight away for euthanasia. He was very upset and I can totally understand why, that would be the hardest things to do to let your beloved dog go because he bite someone. The dog was <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">staffy</span> cross and was happy and relaxed in the consultation room. The man could not decide <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">whether</span> to be present at the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6">euthansia</span> but eventually he decided to be with dog. First time we tried to hold the dog he went to bite me, which made everybody more nervous so we had to put a muzzle on the dog. We then <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7">euthanised</span> the dog, checked the heart had stopped and then we helped him carry the dog out to the car, the owner was still very upset.

I normally walk them down to behind the houses on a lead, then when I check there is no one around I let them off for a run. I think it is the best thing to see them running free. Normally we never see anyone down there, but yesterday Ruff ruff ran ahead of me around the corner, then suddenly I heard a man yelling and our dogs running back towards me. The man yelled at me that Ruff ruff had bitten his dog ( a fluffy white dog) The evidence was clear Ruff ruff had fur in her mouth. I was very sorry for the guy and annoyed at Ruff ruff. It is awful to have your own dog attacked by another. Thankfully there was no damage and the guy calmed down. I am not sure why Ruff Ruff attacks other dogs, I think it is out of fear. I suppose I must be much more careful where I let them off the lead. <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">Officially</span> the only place you can do this is at a dog park, but Ruff ruff does not do well at all at Dog parks. I am unwilling to always have them on a lead as watching the dogs run, and knowing that they will always follow you is one of the great joys of owning a dog.people and petshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08983977087115115997noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4154871703580448676.post-25064337030364909572010-02-23T02:55:00.000-08:002010-02-25T03:46:24.814-08:00Death of a family pet.Last Saturday my auntie to rang to tell me that their dog had been admitted to hospital, with a swollen painful abdomen. The Vet was now advising them to transfer to an after hours center for intensive care over the weekend, the bill could have been in thousands of dollars. What should they do? This is always a difficult question, but harder when it is about a family pet that I could not see.<br />I rang the vet hospital where the dog was staying and spoke at length with the vet on duty about the case. There was no way they where going to spend thousands of dollars at an after hours center, but there was the possibility the dog might get better by just staying on a fluid line. I suggest The dog stay at the hospital without supervision. It was against the policy of that vet hospital, but as long as the owners understood that it would be okay. On Sunday the dog seemed brighter and was able to go for a walk. They where very hopeful that he might go home the next day. But Monday came and the dog was a lot worse and they decided to euthanize. I felt sad for them and so much more involved as I knew that dog. It also made me wish I had my own vet hospital so that I could have helped treat the dog.people and petshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08983977087115115997noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4154871703580448676.post-679331328844990102010-02-17T19:30:00.001-08:002010-02-17T19:35:04.253-08:00Value of pet loss sympathy cardI was looking at Parkridge Animal Hospital on the web, and I noticed they had a review<br /><br /><div><span class="pp-sub-title" dir="ltr"><a href="http://maps.google.com.au/local_url?q=http://www.truelocal.com.au/business/park-ridge-animal-hospital/park-ridge&dq=parkridge+animal+hospital&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-a&ie=UTF-8&fb=1&gl=au&hq=parkridge+animal+hospital&hnear=Brisbane+QLD&cid=6536309049451795009&dtab=2&ei=nbJ8S4q4G42ssQPQ6eSoCg&ved=0CDUQ8wQwAA&sa=X&provider=XML:truelocal-lec&geocode=FY1-Wf4dqR4fCQ&sig2=HRPhexSDanmUntMbchc6Pg&s=ANYYN7lypYj9oki00FjPzcA6Wxeo1Zo6Hg" target="_blank">Park Ridge Animal Hospital is a fantastic...</a></span></div><div><img alt="Rated 4.5 out of 5.0" src="http://maps.gstatic.com/intl/en_au/mapfiles/transparent.png" style="background: transparent url(http://maps.gstatic.com/mapfiles/red_stars.png) no-repeat scroll -32px -3px; height: 9px; width: 10px; -moz-background-clip: border; -moz-background-origin: padding; -moz-background-inline-policy: continuous;" /><img alt="" src="http://maps.gstatic.com/intl/en_au/mapfiles/transparent.png" style="background: transparent url(http://maps.gstatic.com/mapfiles/red_stars.png) no-repeat scroll -32px -3px; height: 9px; width: 10px; -moz-background-clip: border; -moz-background-origin: padding; -moz-background-inline-policy: continuous;" /><img alt="" src="http://maps.gstatic.com/intl/en_au/mapfiles/transparent.png" style="background: transparent url(http://maps.gstatic.com/mapfiles/red_stars.png) no-repeat scroll -32px -3px; height: 9px; width: 10px; -moz-background-clip: border; -moz-background-origin: padding; -moz-background-inline-policy: continuous;" /><img alt="" src="http://maps.gstatic.com/intl/en_au/mapfiles/transparent.png" style="background: transparent url(http://maps.gstatic.com/mapfiles/red_stars.png) no-repeat scroll -32px -3px; height: 9px; width: 10px; -moz-background-clip: border; -moz-background-origin: padding; -moz-background-inline-policy: continuous;" /><img alt="" src="http://maps.gstatic.com/intl/en_au/mapfiles/transparent.png" style="background: transparent url(http://maps.gstatic.com/mapfiles/red_stars.png) no-repeat scroll -43px -3px; height: 9px; width: 10px; -moz-background-clip: border; -moz-background-origin: padding; -moz-background-inline-policy: continuous;" /> <span class="author">By carpet</span><span class="author"> - </span><span class="date"><span dir="ltr">22 Aug 2008</span></span></div><table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tbody><tr><td class="snippet"><span dir="ltr"> place to take your pets.

I think we all believe our dogs are smart, it is great when there are studies that demonstrate that.<br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(192, 192, 192);font-family:Verdana;font-size:100%;" ><div><div><b>Dogs Think Similarly to Young Children and Can Learn Words, Counting Skills and More</b></div><div><b><br /></b></div> <p class="MsoNormal"><span><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Dogs have an intellectual capacity similar to that of a two-year-old human child</span><span>, researcher and author Stanley Coren said at a presentation to the 117th annual convention of the American Psychological Association.</span></span><span><br /><br /><span>"One of the most recent breakthroughs is that people began to use tests which were originally designed for young humans -- for pre-linguistic or limited-linguistic humans -- to see whether dogs had certain capacities," Coren said. "And that allows you then to do a whole bunch of things, not only to determine whether a dog has a certain thinking skill but to place him in terms of where would you be in terms of human beings, as well as in terms of other animals."</span><br /><br /><span>According to Coren, who has written more than a dozen books on understanding dogs, recent studies have confirmed that the animals have a higher cognitive capacity than scientists had thought. They are able to learn the meaning an average of 165 words, including hand signals; the record for most words learned tops 200. Coren said that dogs are also capable of performing basic arithmetic that involves counting up to four or five, and that they have been shown to intentionally deceive humans or other dogs.</span><br /><br /><span>Coren also reported on studies comparing the intelligence of different breeds of dogs. He noted that there are three different kinds of dog intelligence: instinctive intelligence, which is highly breed-dependent; adaptive intelligence, which involves problem-solving and learning from the environment; and working and obedience, which involves trainability.</span><br /><br /><span>According to measures of working and obedience intelligence only, the top seven "smartest" dogs are border collies, poodles, German shepherds, golden retrievers, dobermans, Shetland sheep dogs and Labrador retrievers. The hounds have the lowest degree of obedience intelligence.</span><br /><br /><span>"We all want insight into how our furry companions think, and we want to understand the silly, quirky and apparently irrational behaviors [that] Lassie or Rover demonstrate," Coren said. "Their stunning flashes of brilliance and creativity are reminders that they may not be Einsteins but are sure closer to humans than we thought."</span><br /></span></p></div><p class="MsoNormal"><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal"><b>Note</b><span>: I taught my son to read at 8 months.

Researchers weighed dogs and cats and their owners at a veterinary clinic. There was a strong link between the dogs' weight and the body mass indexes of their owners: fat dogs were more likely to have large owners. In contrast, the cats' weights weren't related to their owners', the study in Public Health Nutrition showed. Does this reflect cats' independence?</p><p><em>Public Health Nutr</em></p><p>2010;13:102-106</p><p>(Nijland M, et al)</p><p>This finding does not suprise me much at all. There is so much more need to control dogs eating and exercise habits. Dog owners can much more easily control how much food they give out and how much walking they do. In contrast it is very diifiuclt to exercise a cat or even refuse a demanding cat food. In saying this vets also need tobe very sensitive when talking about overweight dogs<br /></p>people and petshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08983977087115115997noreply@blogger.com0
