  • Collaborative Research Investigating Public Health Challenges Related to Canines in Rural, Urban, and Remote Communities in Canada
    Epidemiology and One Health: Collaborative Research Investigating Public Health Challenges Related to Canines in Rural, Urban, and Remote Communities in Canada by Danielle Arlaine Julien A Thesis presented to The University of Guelph In partial fulfilment of requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Population Medicine Guelph, Ontario, Canada © Danielle Arlaine Julien, June 2020 ABSTRACT EPIDEMIOLOGY AND ONE HEALTH: COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH INVESTIGATING PUBLIC HEALTH CHALLENGES RELATED TO CANINES IN RURAL, URBAN, AND REMOTE COMMUNITIES IN CANADA Danielle Arlaine Julien Advisor(s): University of Guelph, 2020 Dr. Jan M. Sargeant Dr. Sherilee L. Harper (Co-Advisor) This thesis is an investigation of public health challenges related to dogs in rural and urban communities in southern Ontario, and in remote Iqaluit, Nunavut, Canada, using cross- sectional observational studies. First, we conducted a scoping review of canine zoonotic and vectorborne research in North American countries, categorized by the Inequality-adjusted Human Development Index (IHDI). Most research was conducted in “very high” and “high” IHDI countries. Second, the prevalence of Giardia spp. and Cryptosporidium spp. were investigated in dogs in Iqaluit, Nunavut. Using Ecohealth and One Health approaches, feces were collected from three dog populations (sled (n=79), shelter (n=111), and community dogs (n=104)). The fecal prevalence of at least one parasite when one sample was chosen at random for all dogs was 8.16% (95% CI: 5.52-11.92), and of Giardia spp., and Cryptosporidium spp. was 4.42% (95% CI: 2.58-7.49) and 6.12% (95% CI: 3.88-9.53), respectively. We identified Giardia intestinalis, zoonotic assemblage B (n=2), and species-specific D (n=3) and E (n=1); and 5 samples containing Cryptosporidium canis.

  • Public Health Ethics and a Status for Pets As Person-Things: Revisiting the Place of Animals in Urbanized Societies
    Postprint This is a pre-copyedited, author-produced PDF of an article accepted for publication in Journal of Bioethical Inquiry following peer review. The definitive publisher-authenticated version [Rock M, & Degeling C. Public Health Ethics and a Status for Pets as Person-Things: Revisiting the Place of Animals in Urbanized Societies. Journal of Bioethical Inquiry. (2013) 10(4):485-95.] is available online at http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11673-013-9478-z Public Health Ethics and a Status for Pets as Person-Things: Revisiting the Place of Animals in Urbanized Societies Melanie Rock, Chris Degeling, 2013 Abstract Within the field of medical ethics, discussions related to public health have mainly concentrated on issues that are closely tied to research and practice involving technologies and professional services, including vaccination, screening, and insurance coverage. Broader determinants of population health have received less attention, although this situation is rapidly changing. Against this backdrop, our specific contribution to the literature on ethics and law vis-à-vis promoting population health is to open up the ubiquitous presence of pets within cities and towns for further discussion. An expanding body of research suggests that pet animals are deeply relevant to people’s health (negatively and positively). Pet bylaws adopted by town and city councils have largely escaped notice, yet they are meaningful to consider in relation to everyday practices, social norms, and cultural values, and thus in relation to population health. Nevertheless, not least because they pivot on defining pets as private property belonging to individual people, pet bylaws raise emotionally charged ethical issues that have yet to be tackled in any of the health research on pet ownership.

SOCIAL DISTANCING AND SANITIZATION Protocols for operating Customers may not enter the business. No walk-in customers. Limit all business operations to appointment only.

  • Dogs and Grazing 1
    Dogs and grazing 1 GAP GAP Information leaflet Dogs and grazing 1. Potential issues related to uncontrolled dogs 1.1. Livestock worrying Worrying of livestock by dogs, and livestock chasing dogs (and perhaps their owners) is a major concern with those running livestock on farms and wildlife sites alike There are an estimated 20,000 sheep worried, and 5-10,000 killed (lambs especially) each year Farmers can abandon grazing if dog issues make land unviable, especially in marginal conditions 1.2. Disturbance effects on wildlife In addition to killing or injuring wildlife, uncontrolled dogs can also cause less obvious problems. Many species will react to a dog as a predator with impacts related to the species concerned; e.g. disturbance by dogs affects settlement and breeding success in ground-nesting birds Impacts are complex e.g. nightjar breeding success on heaths is thought to be reduced by dogs flushing adults from their nests, leaving nests vulnerable to predation by crows The dog breeds that have been bred for hunting (e.g. to put up birds for shooting) or to follow scent are likely to be the greatest source of disturbance, although all dogs have this capacity and tendency 1.3. Eutrophication Dog faeces and urine contribute to localised eutrophication on semi-natural vegetation leading to dominance by a few competitive species, typically around car parks and along paths and tracks 1.4. Zoonoses and animal diseases Dog borne zoonoses are not a significant problem in the UK, especially related to other hazards likely to be encountered in the countryside.
