Daisy After Surgery

Mon, 15 Aug 2011 13:46:08 +0000

For those of you wondering what happened: Our dog Daisy was hit by a car in January of this year. Both her legs were severely damaged. One was completely dislocated from the hip and the other had a HUGE laceration on her knee so deep her muscle and bone were exposed. It ran from the bottom of her leg all the way to her thigh. She needed two surgeries to correct the situation. But unfortunately during her recovery, she stretched her once lacerated leg too far when trying to jump to the front seat of our car, and her leg ripped open right next to the staples. Her skin was already stretched a little tight so that didn’t help. Dr. Toledo had to do ANOTHER surgery and was so accommodating and helpful :] For all those that have been with us since this happened, thank you. Here is Daisy a week after surgery when I was able to pick her up from the vet She is doing soo much better now! I will definitely be posting an update video. I am thankful to Affordable Animal Hospital of Anaheim, Dr. Toledo, and his staff, for being so kind and compassionate towards Daisy. They did a GREAT job putting her back together into the happy excitable doggy that she is! Daisy loves going to this hospital for a visit and gets excited whenever she sees Dr. Toledo. He truly is an amazing Doctor–I recommend all animal lovers and pet owners go see him if they are in the Orange County area needing to find a vet!

Pet Owners. What do you think of the first ever Pet Airlines? Details inside->?

Question by Scooter_5 days_: Pet Owners. What do you think of the first ever Pet Airlines? Details inside->?
Paws up: All-pet airline hits skies

NEW YORK – One trip for their Jack Russell terrier in a plane’s cargo hold was enough to convince Alysa Binder and Dan Wiesel that owners needed a better option to get their pets from one city to another.

On Tuesday, the first flight for the husband-and-wife team’s Pet Airways, the first-ever all-pet airline, took off from Republic Airport in Farmingdale, N.Y.

All commercial airlines allow a limited number of small pets to fly in the cabin. Others must travel as checked bags or in the cargo hold — a dark and sometimes dangerous place where temperatures can vary wildly.

Binder and Wiesel used their consulting backgrounds and business savvy to start Pet Airways in 2005. The last four years have been spent designing their fleet of five planes according to new four-legged requirements, dealing with FAA regulations and setting up airport schedules.

The two say they’re overwhelmed with the response. Flights on Pet Airways are already booked up for the next two months.

Pet Airways will fly a pet between five major cities — New York, Washington, Chicago, Denver, and Los Angeles. The $ 250 one-way fare is comparable to pet fees at the largest U.S. airlines.

For owners the big difference is service. Dogs and cats will fly in the main cabin of a Suburban Air Freight plane, retooled and lined with carriers in place of seats. Pets (about 50 on each flight) will be escorted to the plane by attendants that will check on the animals every 15 minutes during flight. The pets are also given pre-boarding walks and bathroom breaks. And at each of the five airports it serves, the company has created a “Pet Lounge” for future fliers to wait and sniff before flights.

The company will operate out of smaller, regional airports in the five launch cities, which will mean an extra trip for most owners dropping off their pets if they are flying too. Stops in cities along the way means the pets will take longer to reach a destination than their owners.

A trip from New York to Los Angeles, for example, will take about 24 hours. On that route, pets will stop in Chicago, have a bathroom break, play time, dinner, and bunk for the night before finishing the trip the next day.

Rescues, reputable breeders, animal controll officers, and responsible pet owerns. I need your input.?

Thu, 09 Jun 2011 06:47:18 +0000

by The Library of Virginia

Question by al l: Rescues, reputable breeders, animal controll officers, and responsible pet owerns. I need your input.?
I’ve been working on a proposal for my county council to help improve the conditions around the area I live and I would like input from others who work responsibly with animals. Constructive criticism only.

I am very concerned about the number of stray dogs and cats as well as the large number of neglectful pet owners in this region. I understand that the animal control program is low on funds and man power. I would like to change that. I humbly ask for your support in implementing new policies that will strengthen the current animal control program, encourage responsible pet ownership, and ensure more efficient safety and security for pets and the general public.

Safety is the biggest issue not only for the animals but for people. When I first moved to South Carolina I was shocked at the number of strays roaming about. Not only do these strays carry contagious disease that can be spread from animal to animal but they also carry zoonotic disease that can
be spread to humans such as leptospirosis. I experience first hand how easily leptospirosis can be spread from an outbreak in San Antonio, Texas three years ago. The rapid spread of any disease is devastating for the entire population. Another safety issue I am concerned with is territorial behavior. This can come from strays or owners letting their dogs run at large. Simply walking down the street someone can encounter a dog that is territorial and not restrained. I personally have scars from a small dog that ran into my yard while I was getting my mail. The dogs themselves are at risk as well. A neighbor’s puppy who I took twice to the SPCA ended up dead on the side or the road. By the next week they already had another dog that I also had to take to the SPCA by direction of animal control. The other day that same dog was running down the street with a second dog that the people adopted.

Owners need to take responsibility for their actions as well as their dogs actions.
Increase leash law violation penalties
Start a breeder licensing program and charge a fee for each litter
Implement a three strikes policy which prevents a person from owning a dog or cat after three reported offenses. These people will be charged a surrender fee to include vaccinations, deworming, and spay and neutering.
Prevent persons convicted of violent offenses such as assault, abuse, or lynching from owning animals. Also prevent those convicted of drug charges from owning pets used as an alert system for at least a probationary period.
Start a state licensing program to track the number of dogs a person owns and limit the number allowed.
Hold dog owners responsible for dog bites.
Operate a communication program that would allow animal control to release animals to specific rescue groups prior to euthanizing.

I understand this would be a big change and would take some time to take effect but something needs to be done to make our community a safer and better
place for human and animals alike. Please support my efforts to make Sumter safer and more secure, create more responsible pet owners, and strengthen our animal control policies.
The part about lynching is in regards to people who have been accused of violent acts. Since there is a lot of gang related activity around this area lynching is a big problem and I don’t think that anyone who is violent towards other people should be allowed to have an animal in their possesion to potentially abuse or use against others for that matter.

That is a well written letter. I hope you can get through to them, because I understand your concern, and it makes perfect sense to keep strays off the streets. I myself as a kid would go out and catch everyones stray and take them to the shelter, but its ridiculous how many people out there have animals that dont take care of them. And to think your neighbor went out and got more dogs when their other one died is just stupid!!! I hate people like that and its up to people like you to help speak for those animals who dont have a voice. I applaud you for your passionate effort and I hope you get through to the county council!

Some cool Pet Safety images:

Tiger finds a good use for the boxes that haven’t yet been unpacked. For the most part, the cats and my parents’ dog, Pixie, have been getting along fine. Owen has swiped at her once or twice, and Pixie has barked at the cats (from the safety of my mom or dad’s lap) when food was involved. But mostly the cats have ignored Pixie.

The human population is growing, & along with it the pet population. Doesn’t this hurt our natural resources?

Wed, 06 Apr 2011 02:49:03 +0000

Question by Amy L: The human population is growing, & along with it the pet population. Doesn’t this hurt our natural resources?
A lot of resources are involved in supplying the pet industry. Are there ways we can mitigate the impacts? Do we need to regulate the number of pets to ensure human needs are met worldwide?

Or should we simply see this as a matter of economics, that this is a multi-billion dollar industry and a healthy environment takes a back seat to profit.

Answer by Daisyduker
Good point. Good pet owners have their pets spayed or neutered. Bad owners just dump the kittens or puppies along with the mother alongside a dirt road.

Safety Features on GPS Trackers for Pets

Sun, 20 Mar 2011 02:48:16 +0000

by Elif Ayiter/Alpha Auer/…./

GPS Pet Trackers have been gaining in popularity for a while now. Pet owners the country over have realized the efficacy of these devices in tracking and locating missing animals and demand for the same has multiplied.

GPS dog collars use the latest in satellite technology to monitor a pet’s movements around the clock. Safety and security leaders such as Securus have entered this market with products like the SpotLight GPS Pet Locator and its value priced counterpart – the SpotLITE. Thanks to these GPS-enabled devices, decreasing the number of missing pets can soon become a reality.

Apart from tracking down a pet when he goes missing, GPS dog collars are also effective tools in keeping your pet safe and secure. These products offer a preventive facet along with a proactive one if an animal actually goes missing. For example, the SpotLight GPS Pet Locator allows you to specify certain areas and zones as “SafeSpots”. These safe spots or zones are areas that are considered safe and familiar for your dog to roam within and could include your home, or the local park. What the SpotLight then does is notify you by email, text or via the Internet if your pet has moved out of any of these areas. Since this is done in real time, you will be able to take the necessary steps to prevent your dog from getting lost as soon as possible. By taking these precautions, you are in fact preventing your dog from going missing and keeping him safe without intruding on his daily routine.

When choosing a GPS dog collar, look out for models with extra safety features such as reflective surfaces or LED lights. The SpotLight has a powerful LED beacon that will make your dog visible in the dark. An added advantage is that this beacon can be activated from your home computer or even from your phone.

Keeping your pet safe in the dark is another worry for most pet owners and in this way a GPS Pet Collar can help matters. Also included is a Rescue button. In case your dog still manages to slip away and is found by someone else, all they have to do is press the Rescue button and you will be informed of your pet’s location and how to get there.

Securus has teamed up with the American Kennel Club’s Companion Animal Recovery (AKC CAR) to provide pet owners access to a 24/7 helpline and recovery service. Along with this is a unique AKC CAR ID and tag that adds to your pet’s safety and wellbeing. The product website – SpotlightGPS.com is developing into the definitive site for pet owners. Thanks to its alliance with PetWave, the site provides a vast library of information about pet safety and health. For a holistic approach to pet security and safety check out the site that has contributions from nutritionists, breeders, vets and pet specialists from all over the country.

How to Protect Your Pet in the Event of a Flood

Mon, 14 Mar 2011 02:43:28 +0000

by Dog Tag Art

The devastating floods in Iowa are a reminder that pets and their owners may be forced to evacuate on short notice.

Yet studies on disaster evacuation show that only 40% of pet owners are prepared to evacuate their pets with the rest of the family. The remaining 60% evacuate without their pets and then risk their own lives by returning home prematurely to rescue their animals. To safeguard your pet during a flood, be prepared before the flooding occurs. Take action now, our companion animals depend on us for their survival.

Pet Carriers – The most common reason for non-evacuation of pets is a lack of suitable carriers particularly for cats. In households with multiple pets it’s common to have a single carrier for veterinary visits. But in an evacuation, a carrier is required for each pet. Make sure you have enough carriers constructed of wire mesh or plastic. Cardboard carriers will disintegrate in a flood.

Have a Pet Safety Kit ready and a second kit in the car.

Evacuation Tips for Pets – Keep in mind that animals react differently under stress. Keep dogs secure. Transport cats in carriers. Don’t leave animals unattended. Even the most trustworthy pets may panic, hide, try to escape, or even bite or scratch. And, when you return home, give your pets time to settle back into their routines.

During Heavy Rains – Listen to the radio for warnings and directions issued by emergency management personnel.

· Evacuate to higher ground.

· If you see any possibility of a flash flood occurring, move immediately to high ground. Do not wait for instructions to move.

· Walking or driving through floodwaters is the most dangerous thing you can do.

· Police barricades are there for your protection. Do not drive around them!

During a Flood – Be sure everyone is safe from the fast flowing floodwaters. Flowing water that an adult can walk through may sweep children and pets away.

1. Cooperate fully with local officials. Keep informed of local conditions. Obey all health regulations for protection against epidemics.

2. Do not walk through moving water. Flood waters only one foot deep can sweep you off your feet. Look for areas where the water is not moving. What might seem like a small amount of moving water can easily knock you down.

3. Do not drive into flooded areas. If your vehicle becomes surrounded by rising water, get out quickly and move to higher ground.

4. Stay away from downed power lines to avoid the risk of electrocution.

5. Wait until officials assure you that the flood danger is over before reentering any area.
