Download Canine Care Guide 10 Household Plants That Are Dangerous to Dogs and Cats • Over 700 indoor/outdoor plants contain toxic substances that may harm dogs and cats. • If these plants are ingested, signs of poisoning can be mild to severe, sometimes even causing death. • Most houseplants have multiple names, so it is important to confirm that the houseplants you currently own or may purchase are not toxic to your pet. Asparagus Fern Asparagus fern (also called emerald feather, emerald fern, sprengeri fern, plumosa fern, and lace fern) is toxic to dogs and cats. The toxic agent in this plant is sapogenin—a steroid found in a variety of plants. If a dog or cat ingests the berries of this plant, vomiting, diarrhea, and/or abdominal pain can occur. Allergic dermatitis (skin inflammation) can occur if an animal is repeatedly exposed to this plant. Corn Plant Corn plant (also known as cornstalk plant, dracaena, dragon tree, and ribbon plant) is toxic to dogs and cats. Saponin is the toxic chemical compound in this plant. If this plant is ingested, vomiting (with or without blood), appetite loss, depression, and/or increased salivation can occur. Affected cats may also have dilated pupils. Dieffenbachia Dieffenbachia (commonly known as dumb cane, tropic snow, and exotica) is toxic to dogs and cats. Dieffenbachia contains a chemical that is a poisonous deterrent to animals. If this plant is ingested, oral irritation can occur, especially on the tongue and lips. This irritation can lead to increased salivation, difficulty swallowing, and vomiting. Elephant Ear Elephant ear (also known as caladium, taro, pai, ape, cape, via, via sori, and malanga) contains a chemical similar to the one in dieffenbachia, so an animal’s toxic reaction to elephant ear is similar: oral irritation, increased salivation, difficulty swallowing, and vomiting. Lilies Many plants of the lily family are considered toxic to cats, and some are considered toxic to dogs. Cats are the only animals in which the Easter and stargazer lilies are known to be toxic. Generally, a cat’s first toxic reaction to this plant includes vomiting, lethargy, and a lack of appetite, but severe kidney failure, and even death, can quickly follow if a cat is untreated. The peace lily (also known as Mauna Loa) is toxic to dogs and cats. Ingestion of the peace lily or calla lily can cause irritation of the tongue and lips, increased salivation, difficulty swallowing, and vomiting. Cyclamen Cyclamen (also known as sowbread) is a pretty, flowering plant that is toxic to dogs and cats. If ingested, this plant can cause increased salivation, vomiting and diarrhea. If an animal ingests a large amount of the plant’s tubers—which are found at the root, generally below the soil—heart rhythm abnormalities, seizures, and even death can occur. Heartleaf Philodendron Heartleaf philodendron (also known as horsehead philodendron, cordatum, fiddle-leaf, panda plant, split-leaf philodendron, fruit salad plant, red emerald, red princess, and saddle leaf) is a common, easy-to-grow houseplant that is toxic to dogs and cats. This philodendron contains a chemical that can irritate the mouth, tongue, and lips of animals. An affected pet may also experience increased salivation, vomiting, and difficulty swallowing. Jade Plant Jade plant (also known as baby jade, dwarf rubber plant, jade tree, Chinese rubber plant, Japanese rubber plant, and friendship tree) is toxic to cats and dogs. The toxic property in this plant is unknown, but ingestion of it can cause vomiting, depression, ataxia (incoordination), and bradycardia (slow heart rate; this is rare). Aloe Plant Aloe plant (also known as medicine plant and Barbados aloe) is a common, succulent plant that is toxic to dogs and cats. Aloin is considered the toxic agent in this plant. This bitter, yellow substance is found in most aloe species and may cause vomiting and/or the urine to become reddish. Satin Pothos Satin pothos (also known as silk pothos) is toxic to dogs and cats. If ingested by a cat or dog, this plant may irritate the mouth, lips, and tongue. The pet may also experience an increase in salivation, vomiting, and/or difficulty swallowing.

Bring your dog in for regular checkups so that your veterinarian can monitor your dog’s arthritis and make necessary adjustments to the treatment plan. 2. Getting or keeping your dog slim can help by decreasing the load on his or her joints. Feeding your dog the right amount of high-quality food should help with weight control. 3. Carefully monitored exercise on soft surfaces can help affected dogs. Ask your veterinarian for more details. 4. Because arthritis is aggravated by the cold and damp, keep your dog warm and dry. Padded dog beds can help. Warm compresses can soothe affected joints. 5. Massage therapy can increase your dog’s flexibility, circulation, and sense of well-being. Professional animal massage therapists are available. 6. Pain medication, including nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (commonly called NSAIDs), may help relieve signs of your dog’s arthritis. Disease-modifying osteoarthritis drugs (DMOADs) can also be an important part of managing osteoarthritis. Never give your dog a drug without your veterinarian’s recommendation. 7. Glucosamine and chondroitin supplements are considered DMOADs and can be used to help manage arthritis in dogs and other animals. 8. Acupuncture isn’t just for people. It’s painless and has shown some success in animals with arthritis. 9. Surgery may be a good choice in advanced cases of canine arthritis.Your veterinarian can tell you more. 10. A low-stress environment, plenty of affection, and supportive care can help improve your dog’s quality of life. Many pain relievers that help dogs and people are poisonous to cats. At-Home Aids for Arthritic Dogs • Slip-free flooring • Soft bedding • Ramps (instead of steps) • A warm, dry environment • Help with grooming A Pet Owner's Guide to Flea Control • Adult fleas are only part of the problem. Immature fleas (eggs and larvae) contribute to flea infestation, too. • Your pet does not have to go outside to get fleas. • Your veterinarian is a reliable source of information on safe and effective flea control products for your pet and home. What Are Fleas? Fleas are blood-feeding parasites that can infest many species of birds and mammals. Although fleas on dogs and cats don’t infest people, fleas may bite people if an area is heavily infested. Flea infestation is one of the most common medical problems veterinarians see, and pets suffer greatly from this condition. Flea bites can trigger severe allergic reactions in some pets. The intense itching caused by flea infestation causes pets to scratch and bite themselves. This can lead to skin wounds, skin infections, and general misery for your pet. Even if your pet is not allergic to flea bites, fleas can transmit serious diseases, such as bartonellosis (the bacteria that causes “cat scratch disease” in people), and other parasites, like tapeworms. How Do Animals Become Infested With Fleas? Fleas are very successful parasites. Temperature and humidity extremes can kill them, but they can survive for long periods of time under a surprising range of conditions. Developing fleas can even become dormant for many months if there are no hosts available. If your pet spends time outside, in kennels, or around other animals, the risk of picking up fleas increases. However, even a completely indoor pet can become infested with fleas. Because the temperature and humidity conditions inside your home are fairly stable, fleas can live there with relative ease. In this way, fleas can live in colder regions of the country, surviving climate conditions that would otherwise be intolerable. Once they have entered a house, fleas can multiply very well under favorable year-round conditions, adding to the challenge of controlling them in a home environment. You can bring fleas into your home on your clothing, and any people or animals that come into your home can also bring fleas with them. Once fleas find a host, they begin to feed almost immediately. They lay large numbers of eggs, which eventually mature into new fleas that continue the infestation. Adult fleas may remain on an animal, but the eggs and larvae fall off the animal and remain in the environment. Flea larvae are mobile, and they can hide in places such as carpeting, bedding, furniture, and baseboards. Once they mature, they take the first opportunity to jump onto an animal or person and begin to feed, continuing their life cycle. How Can I Tell If My Pet Has Fleas? Fleas may not be easily visible on your pet. If an infestation is heavy, you may see fleas on the animal’s skin, or you may find them by combing your pet with a flea comb. Adult fleas are the easiest stage of the parasite to find, but they account for less than 5% of an infestation. The other stages (eggs, larvae, and pupae), which make up the other 95%, are smaller and more difficult to find. You may also find small black/brown specks on your pet’s skin or bedding. These specks look like tiny coffee grounds and are commonly called “flea dirt.” Flea dirt is the feces of adult fleas and is actually the digested blood of the host. When the dark particles get wet, the red color returns, which may help with identification.

    New Adopter Tutorial _____________________________________________________________________________ When you think that you have forgotten everything ________________________ told you, read this. ================================================================================================== ● C.A.R.E.’s Law #1: Don’t panic if your new dog doesn’t eat for the first day or two – he (or she) is under a lot of stress and not eating is one response. ● C.A.R.E.’s Law #2: Don’t panic if your new dog has diarrhea – this is the other common response to stress. If it seems severe, try feeding him or her some cooked white rice. You can mix in a little boiled chicken if you want. If it doesn’t get better in a day or so, call C.A.R.E. or your vet. ● Make sure you call Trupanion within 24 hours of the adoption to take advantage of the free 30 days of pet insurance! It does not include any obligation to continue the insurance and you don't need to give them a credit card number. ● Let your new dog get comfortable with the family before bringing strangers into the house – this particularly applies to children. If your dog still seems uncertain of him (her) self and you are expecting company, you may want to crate or confine your dog when company arrives. ● Supervise children (your own and guests) when they are with the dog. Do not let your dog feel trapped by a group of children. Show children how to be gentle with an animal. See “Information For Adopters With Children”. ● Read up on how to use a dog crate.

The tasks ahead may seem overwhelming, but the payoffs will be years of unconditional love and friendship. The first few months of your puppy’s life are very formative. Your puppy needs to be socialized, he needs to learn where to eliminate appropriately and he needs to learn to inhibit his bite.

Young puppies have very sharp teeth After you say “ouch” you should get you are frustrated, keep in mind that as I am sure you have found out by up and step away from you puppy your puppy has only been on the now.

  • Housebreaking and Crate Training
    Housebreaking and Crate Training There are several ways to housebreak your new puppy, but the method that seems to work the fastest is crate training. In crate training your puppy is placed in his crate any time he cannot be watched when you are away, when you are sleeping, when you are cooking and eating, or whenever your attention is otherwise occupied. Because most puppies and dogs do not like to soil the area where they sleep, your pup learns to hold it while he’s in the crate, and to wait for you to come to take him out before he eliminates. Crate training method works best because you are teaching your dog an absolute rule: you NEVER go in the house; you ALWAYS go outside. With paper or puppy pad training you’re teaching your dog this rule: you can go inside on this paper, but not there on that paper, and only when we’re gone because when we’re here you’re supposed to hold it and let us know that you need to go outside. Got it? I didn’t think so! Because with crate training your dog learns to hold it and the absolute rule, he will have less confusion, learn faster, and have fewer accidents as he gets older. Some people think that crates are cruel, and resist the idea of putting their puppy in a cage. But dogs are den animals and they like to cuddle up in confined spaces under beds, behind couches, in closets or boxes. If introduced and used properly, a crate becomes a puppy’s den or personal room.

  • THOU SHALT MAKE SURE FIDO IS in GOOD HEALTH Commandment #2
    Commandment #1: THOU SHALT MAKE SURE FIDO IS IN GOOD HEALTH Before starting a housebreaking program, please be sure Fido has a clean bill of health. A veterinary exam including a fecal exam (stool sample) will allow you to be sure that none of Fido's housebreaking issues are caused by a medical problem. This is important for all dogs, but especially for new puppies, senior dogs, or dogs who have symptoms of digestive problems or other health issues. If Fido has digestive issues caused by parasites, allergies or other medical problems, he may have a hard time controlling his bowels, which will make it hard for him to get to the right place every time he needs to go. Some symptoms to watch for: Excessive gas Bloated tummy Tender tummy Diarrhea Soft stools Straining to go Mucus in stools Blood in stools Worms in stool (may look like moving pieces of white rice or like long pieces of spaghetti) NOTE: Fido may have worms even if they're not visible in his stools. Sometimes the only evidence that your dog has a parasite infestation is the presence of microscopic worm eggs in the stool, which can only be detected by having your vet test a stool sample. Urinary problems caused by bladder or urinary tract issues can make housebreaking nearly impossible. Some symptoms to watch for: Frequent urination Sudden increase in urination Housebroken dog that suddenly starts having urine accidents Blood in urine Dog attempts to urinate but nothing comes out Dog attempts to urinate then jumps up in pain Fido's housebreaking can also be adversely affected by other medical issues, including arthritis, hip dysplasia or any other kind of painful condition.

Led by pacesetters such as Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, Kris Kristofferson, and Bobby Bare, artists in Nashville and Austin demanded the creative freedom to make their own country music, different from the pop-oriented sound that prevailed at the time. This exhibition also examines the cultures of Nashville and fiercely independent Austin, and the complicated, surprising relationships between the two. Artwork by Sam Yeates, Rising from the Ashes, Willie Takes Flight for Austin (2017) 3-6 Introduction 3 This interdisciplinary lesson guide allows classrooms to explore the exhibition Outlaws and Armadillos: Country’s Roaring ‘70s on view at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum® from May 25, 2018 – February 14, 2021. Students will examine the causes and effects of the Outlaw movement through analysis of art, music, video, and nonfiction texts. In doing so, students will gain an understanding of the culture of this movement; who and what influenced it; and how these changes diversified country music’s audience during this time.
