Dogs Gone Good

“From paralysis to seizures, and from immune-mediated hemolytic anemia to injection-site fibrosarcomas, adverse reactions to vaccination are not uncommon in pets. Often attributable to annual vaccinations that some veterinarians consider totally unnecessary, vaccine reactions also may lead to allergies, skin problems, behavioral changes, and autoimmune diseases.”

“Reported changes following rabies vaccination may include those that mimic early symptoms of rabies itself such as increased aggression toward humans and other pets, loss of affectionate behaviors, excessive barking, and destructiveness. Such behavioral changes are often attributed to “Rabies Miasm,” a term used to describe an underlying disease process, in this case a condition akin to a mild form of “chronic rabies.””
(Rabies Miasm aka vaccine induced rabies)

“Given the current laws requiring annual or three-year repeat rabies vaccinations, and the routine veterinary practice of vaccinating pets annually, it may come as no surprise that we are seeing an increase of autoimmune disorders and autism-like behaviors in pets.”

As the incidence of autism spectrum disorders has risen in children over the last half century, there is evidence that similar behavioral disorders have been observed in pets

Life can be hard, and people can let you down...
Sometimes all you need is a dog.

Be realistic

Sometimes we expect dogs to be able to just manage or behave in a certain way in a determined situation without even giving much thought to it, we may see it as an every day thing. Just like humans dogs must be taught things before they can possibly master them or even know how to do these tasks, they must then master these individual task on different levels, Every dog is different and some will have better predisposition than others, that does not mean some dogs are disobedient or stubborn, they just need more training in that area.

Something as "simple" as sitting calmly at a café or restaurant is a behaviour we must train, try expecting the same from a 4 year old human...not going to happen! Dogs can get bored, impatient and frustrated, especially younger dogs, give them something to do, gradually work up the duration of behaviour, don't stay so long that they get frustrated, that's an unrealistic expectation, know your dogs capabilities and work on them.

So say we have a puppy, it's not a case of "we'll see how he turns out", I can't afford to gamble that, puppies don't do "bad" behaviour they do reinforcing behaviour so let the puppy know what to do, how to do it and when you expect it and make the appropriate behaviour more reinforcing that the undesirable one.

I can't swim well, if I trained enough i could probably become a strong swimmer but that would take hard work and dedication, before then I definitely wouldn't think of swimming too far "out of my depth". Know where you're at with your dogs behaviour and don't go out his depth expecting him to be able to handle the strong waves. Stay realistic and keep training!!

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 walks 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 woman." So the next time you hear the phrase "just a dog," just smile--because they "just don't understand."

A few weeks ago Skip and I were in a trial when it was in the high 80’s and humid. Very little breeze. In short, awful. Of course, I was worried about Skip, given his bad heart, and wouldn’t have run him if the course hadn’t been a short one. I got him in the […]
