Pitbulls BAN THE DEED NOT THE BREED BY Kidwell Productions
Before BSL takes our family pets away Before BSL breaks our family chains apart Before BSL causes or children to pray to God Why? Before they would take away my baby, son and bestfriend I will stand up for my innoncent one until the bitter end! (BY SHERRY KIDWELL) BSL is exactly what it sounds like...regulation of your right to own or, in many cases, not own a dog based solely on the breed or "type" of dog, not your responsibility as an owner. Dog problems are generally problems with owner responsibility and are not limited to breeds. When breeds are singled out as dangerous or vicious, responsibility is removed from the dog owner which is where it belongs. Irresponsible people are also less likely to follow the law - and as a result, everyone has to suffer. Help take action to ban the BSL aka Bull **** Law!!!

Just Great, My Dog Has Worms, Now What?
It can be a devastating and disgusting diagnosis when a Veterinarian tells you that your dog has Worms. Even worse, you may actually see the Worms coming out of your dog or in their stool, if they have Roundworms or Tapeworms. Trust me when I say that that can be a nearly traumatic experience. Also disturbing, some of these Worms can even be transmitted from your dog to you, which is called zoonosis. These include Roundworms and Hookworms, so you should take extra precautions and follow your veterinarians advice to the letter, if you dog has one of these parasites.
Each type of wormy parasite requires a different treatment or medication, and will display different symptoms. Every dog owner should at least have a working knowledge about the warning signs of a Worm infestation and the treatments involved. Here are the five types of Worms that may infect your dog.
Roundworms - There are two types of Roundworms and they are the most common Worm infestation in dogs. The symptoms of Roundworms include: pot-belly appearance, diarrhea, vomiting, dull coat and weight loss. You may even see this type of Worm in your dogs vomit or feces. They look like pieces of spaghetti up to 6 inches long or longer. This type of Worm is usually treated with oral medication, with follow-up fecal screenings. This is one of the types of Worms that can be transferred to humans, but good hygiene will usually eliminate this threat. Hookworms - Hookworms can not be seen with the naked eye, so they are usually diagnosed by your Vet with a test. The symptoms of Hookworms include: bloody stool, anemia, weight loss, pale gums, diarrhea and low energy level. This parasite is usually treated with oral medication, follow-up fecal screenings, and in the worst case, a blood transfusion. This is the other type of Worm that can be transmitted to humans. Good hygiene and cleaning up after your infected dog can prevent a human infection. Tapeworms - Common Tapeworm symptoms include abdominal pain, nervousness, severe itching around the anus, vomiting and weight loss. You may also see this Worm in your dogs feces. The broken sections, which may still be moving, will give the dogs stool a rice like appearance. Tapeworms must usually be treated with a prescription oral or injection dewormer medication. Over-the-counter dewormer medication is usually not strong enough to clear this kind of Worm infestation. Whipworms - This Worm can not be seen by the naked eye, and must be diagnosed through testing. Symptoms of a Whipworm infestation include anemia, weight loss, flatulence, diarrhea with blood or mucus in the stool and lack of energy. These Worms can be difficult to treat with over-the-counter medication, but there are very effective prescription treatments. Heartworms - Although easily preventable, untreated Heartworm infections are potential fatal. The symptoms usually do not show up until the last stage of the disease, and include pot-belly, coughing, lack of energy and dull coat. Because symptoms do not appear until its too late, it is best to use a over-the-counter preventative medication to stop these Worms before they endanger your pets health.
Having a Wormy dog can be an unpleasant experience, but in almost all cases there is an effective treatment available to help your favorite dog live a healthy and Worm free life.

All About Cognitive Dysfunction Or Doggy Alzheimer's
What is Cognitive Dysfunction or Dog Alzheimer?
Yes, the dreaded Alzheimer's Disease in humans can also affect dogs. Basically, that's what the term Cognitive Dysfunction Syndrome means. This is a disease that tends to affect older dogs. However, there are also cases of Cognitive Dysfunction in younger dogs. In a nutshell, Cognitive Dysfunction or Doggy Alzheimer catches all the behavioral changes that occur in animals as they grow older that cannot be traced back to any other illness or disorder. Alzheimer's disease in dogs can be traced back to brain nerves damages. The scientific cause os very much like the cause of Alzheimer's disease in humans.
How to know if your dog has Cognitive Dysfunction
Cognitive Dysfunction or Dog Alzheimer has a lot of symptoms. In humans, Alzheimer's disease is very much associated to memory loss. The same is true about Doggy Alzheimer. Memory loss is the top symptom of this syndrome. To detect memory loss, start looking for signs of your dog forgetting things. Your dog may suddenly forget the layout of your house. They may suddenly forget tricks that you've taught it, which it has known all its life. Sometimes, older dogs even forget that they have just eaten, so if your dog starts growing old and begins asking for food very frequently, you can take that as a sign. However, since memory loss can be part of the natural aging process, it is not usually a sure sign, unless it is accompanied by many other symptoms. Other symptoms include drastic personality and behavioral changes, as well as tendencies to become easily confused. Behavioral changes can affect the decrease in the dog's daily stamina and energy. If you suddenly find that your dog seemed to have made a sharp transition from being an energetic dog to an older dog that just wants to sleep the whole day, it may not be a normal aging characteristic, but may already be a sign of Cognitive Dysfunction. Also, if your dog suddenly develops various types of disorders at around 12 to 16 years old, chances are its recent separation anxiety, phobia, or aggression, is caused by Alzheimer's disease.
How to Treat Doggy Alzheimer
Doggy Alzheimer can be taken as your earliest cluse that your dog may be closer to the end of the rope. In most cases, complete treatment is not possible anymore. The only thing that can be done is to lessen the symptoms, and to try and make your dog live longer. Some known treatment options for Cognitive Dysfunction are quite effective in doing those things. However, most treatments, such as Anipryl, which is also used as a treatment for Parkinson's Disease in humans, may have negative side effects to dogs. If your dog has Cognitive Dysfunction, make sure to consult your veterinarian for the best treatment option that you can use. You should also be aware that it is practically impossible to stop all the symptoms completely. The next best thing that you can do is try to relieve your dog of the symptoms that are most bothersome, both for your pet and for you as well. Aside from medications, there are also several types of therapies available. These therapies are safer, and are known to be more effective than medications. When you consult to your veterinarian, make sure to ask about all the possible options available to you.

Who Is That Ugly Little Brown Dog?
When the Border Terrier first made its appearance in the A.K.C. show ring, onlookers were often heard to ask "What breed is that ugly little brown dog?" The Border Terrier does appear to be rather plain, a simple and straight forward looking, unassuming brown dog.
Personality wise however he packs a lot of punch. Developed to "run with the hounds" and worry the fox , the Border Terrier is courageous and exploratory in nature. As an addition to a household, he can get himself into a lot of trouble! His inquisitive forays into the neighborhood mandates that his owners have a securely enclosed area, especially since he is not a large dog and he can wiggle his way out of a lot of enclosures.
The Border Terrier has boundless energy. He is playful and a bit scrappy in nature. However he should not posses the typical aggression associated with most terrier types, since he must blend well into the fox hound pack. The history of his usefulness as an "assistant" to the hounds demands that he get along well with other dogs. He was bred to worry the fox when the hounds caught up, thus his nature should be one of dauntless courage and tenacity.
The standard calls for a small dog of stocky proportions. He should have a broad, otter-like skull with folded ears set close to his head, and a broad and sturdy body which is not actually very representative of most breeds who are within the Terrier group. The height is about 13 centimeters at the withers. The chest should not be "barrel" and his coat should be straight and lie close to the body. Colors range from dull red to wheaten to black and tan or blue and tan, a small amount of white on the chest is permissible but not common. Teeth should have a scissors bite and be strong. Shoulders should be well laid back so that he can negotiate rough country when running with the hounds.
The Border Terrier has proved himself useful as a therapy dog. His small size and gentle nature work well in this pursuit, plus his coat is not a difficult care coat so that he is easy to keep clean for his visits to hospitals and homes for the elderly. He has also become a favorite dog for the agility ring as he has speed and a genuine love of the chase. He is tractable and easy to train, being highly intelligent. The border terrier is equally at home in a small apartment or as a country dog. Assistance dogs generally are larger than this little dog, but in the areas of assistance dogs for the deaf or as a "seizure dog" the Border terrier has made himself quite useful. And of course, in the show ring, he is gaining steadily in popularity.
The Border Terrier seems to be very stable in matters of health. He presently is not considered a "problem dog" but care must be taken with responsible breeding or surely problems of health will develop, as this has often occurred in the history of breeding dogs. Especially when a dog is of a smaller stature or becomes popular, puppy millers tend to breed indiscriminately to meet the demands of the market, and this can lead to health related problems which were not present early on. If responsible breeders continue to maintain a tight control over the sale of un-neutered animals then the future will be secured with good health remaining one of the attributes of this "ugly little brown dog".

Beagle
The Beagle is a breed of small to medium-sized dog. A member of the Hound Group, it is similar in appearance to the Foxhound but smaller, with shorter legs and longer, softer ears. Beagles are scent hounds, developed primarily for tracking hare, rabbit, and other game. They have a keen sense of smell and tracking instinct that sees them employed as detection dogs for prohibited agricultural imports and foodstuffs in quarantine around the world. They are popular as pets because of their size, even temper, and lack of inherited health problems. These characteristics also make them the dog of choice for animal testing.Although beagle-type dogs have existed for over 2000 years, the modern breed was developed in Britain around the 1830s from several breeds, including the Talbot Hound, the North Country Beagle, the Southern Hound, and possibly the Harrier.Beagles have been depicted in popular culture since Elizabethan times in literature and paintings, and latterly in film, television and comic books. Snoopy of the comic strip Peanuts has been promoted as "the world's most famous beagle".The Beagle has an even temper and gentle disposition. Described in several breed standards as "merry", they are amiable and generally neither aggressive nor timid. They enjoy company, and although they may initially be standoffish with strangers, they are easily won over. They make poor guard dogs for this reason, although their tendency to bark or howl when confronted with the unfamiliar makes ...
