11.01.2022 A reminder for the coming summer months

10.01.2022 JUST A DOG From time to time, people tell me, "lighten up, it's just a dog," or "that's a lot of money for just a dog." They don't understand the distance traveled, the time spent, or the costs involved for "just a dog." Some of my proudest moments have come about with... "just a dog." Many hours have passed and my only company was "just a dog," but I did not once feel slighted. Some of my saddest moments have been brought about by "just a dog," and in those days of darkness, the gentle touch of "just a dog" gave me comfort and reason to overcome the day. If you, too, think it's "just a dog," then you will probably understand phrases like "just a friend," "just a sunrise," or "just a promise." "Just a dog" brings into my life the very essence of friendship, trust, and pure and unbridled joy. "Just a dog" brings out the compassion and patience that makes me a better person. Because of "just a dog," I will rise early, take long rides and look longingly to the future. So for me and folks like me, it's not "just a dog" but an embodiment of all the hopes and dreams of the future, the fond memories of the past, and the pure joy of the moment. I hope that someday they can understand that it's not "just a dog," but the thing that gives me humanity and keeps me from being "just a man." So the next time you hear the phrase "just a dog," just smile--because they "just don't understand." - Author Unknown

09.01.2022 Networking .. do we really understand how it works or is it just the dogs way

09.01.2022 Anything is possible

09.01.2022 The lessons our dogs teach us about ourselves help us be better version of ourselves on a daily basis.

07.01.2022 This ridiculous and dangerous dogma of "perceived harm" is yet another nail in the coffin of dog ownership, mark my words. Fascism at its finest.

07.01.2022 I am sure we have all heard of these sayings at different times ....

05.01.2022 Food for thought for people that are house bound & you have just brought home your new puppy

04.01.2022 Whether becoming a dog trainer or teaching your own dog, you can't rush things and expect the same quality as those who are patient and understand the importance of time.

03.01.2022 My own knees have told me that it's getting colder as well as me being a bit slack in the last week with my supplements! If ...your dog has started to find it a little harder to get up and down or a bit slower on walks, they may also be feeling the colder weather. Here's my tips and tricks for dealing with cold weather owies: - i.e. not kibble, if you'd like to learn more about feeding a whole foods diet, head to our supportive mostly Australian group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/rawandfresh/ Diet matters, if you feed your dog a highly processed diet that promotes inflammation then it's reasonable to expect years i.e. 5-10 years down the track, you're going to potentially see that inflammation show up in the form of disease including joint disease. So whilst you might think your kibble fed dog is healthy right now, it's not a healthy food - if it were in a supermarket isle as human food, you certainly wouldn't find it in the health food isle. - a superhero version of omega-3, low in purines and heavy metals, a full spectrum omega-3 which works synergistically, there is nothing on the market like it. I keep my dogs on it all year long as it also acts as a preventative, improves coat condition, can help skin conditions, improve train-ability in puppies and the list goes on - you see what I mean about being a superhero. If your Vet doesn't stock it, shoot me a direct message and I'll shoot you an online supplier with free shipping. - a great supplement for pain, inflammation, ligaments and muscles. I buy Opti MSM which is the best in the world, you can get it here: https://www.blants.com.au/ 1-10 kilos of body weight: 1/4 teaspoon 10 - 20 kilos of body weight: 1/2 teaspoon 20 40 kilos of body weight: 3/4 teaspoon over 40 kilos: 1 teaspoon and then 1/4 teaspoon for every 10 kilos over that These doses can be doubled when there are joint disease issues. Add Vitamin C to increase absorption of MSM. Use a ratio of 4 parts MSM to 1 part Vitamin C. Ester C is much gentler on the tummy that standard Vitamin C and comes in a powder. - pop it in the microwave for 45 seconds, check temperature for skin safety (it should feel luke warm) and then apply to painful joints for 10 minutes 1-2 times daily. () - Apply to joint and lightly massage in for 1-2 minutes as many times a day as you like. In sensitive skin dogs, apply water to the area first. I use Amazing Oils - Organic Magnesium Products - always read ingredients panels to ensure ingredients are safe for dogs. - walk your arthritic dog, even if it's to the letter box and back, movement is incredibly important, as soon as you stop moving older/compromised dogs they start their downward decline. - Massage, heat therapy, laser therapy, ultrasound therapy, adjustments, acupuncture - there are so many beneficial therapies for older dogs. - swimming and underwater treadmill sessions are great for such dogs - they must be at a treatment centre which maintains water at a therapeutic temperature. Stop ball throwing, biking, jogging and dog sports with these dogs, they are no longer appropriate and if you continue, you will wear the joints down faster which will be reflected in a lower quality of life later on. Do not avoid pain killers if your dog actually needs them simply because you don't want to put chemicals into your dog - I hear this rational often and you don't have the right to withhold medication from your dog when you don't feel the pain they feel. Dogs are hard wired not to show pain and when they eventually show it, they've been feeling it for a long time. If your dog limps then your dog is in pain.

02.01.2022 How old is your dog actually? If you own a dog, you've heard this rule: 1 year for Fido equals 7 years for you. Turns out, the math isn't that simple. Dogs mature more quickly than we do early on. So the first year of your fuzzy friend’s life is equal to about 15 human years. Size and breed also play a role. Smaller dogs tend to live longer than larger ones, but they may mature more quickly in the first few years of life. A huge pup might age more slowly at first, but be ne...aring middle age at 5. Tiny and toy breeds don't become "seniors" until around age 10. Medium-sized pooches are somewhere in the middle on both counts. If you’ve adopted a puppy or dog but don't know her/his history, you may not know how old she/he is. Even if you don’t know the birth date, you can still guess her/his age. Her/His teeth should give you a rough idea of her/his age. These guidelines will vary from dog to dog, and they also depend on the kind of dental care (if any) she/he had before you got her/him. By 8 weeks: All baby teeth are in. By 7 months: All permanent teeth are in and are white and clean. By 1-2 years: Teeth are duller and the back teeth may have some yellowing. By 3-5 years: All teeth may have tartar buildup and some tooth wear. By 5-10 years: Teeth show more wear and signs of disease. By 10-15 years: Teeth are worn, and heavy tartar buildup is likely. Some teeth may be missing. Your vet can also guess her/his age based on a complete physical exam or tests that look at bones, joints, muscles, and internal organs. Senior dogs might show some specific signs of aging. Cloudy eyes Gray hair. It starts around the muzzle then spreads to other areas of the face, head, and body.
