  • Wolf Hybrids
    Wolf Hybrids By Claudine Wilkins and Jessica Rock, Founders of Animal Law Source™ DEFINITION By definition, the wolf-dog hybrid is a cross between a domestic dog (Canis familiaris) and a wild Wolf (Canis Lupus). Wolves are the evolutionary ancestor of dogs. Dogs evolved from wolves through thousands of years of adaptation, living and being selectively bred and domesticated by humans. Because dogs and wolves are evolutionarily connected, dogs and wolves can breed together. Although this cross breeding can occur naturally, it is a rare occurrence in the wild due to the territorial and aggressive nature of wolves. Recently, the breeding of a dog with a wolf has become an accepted new phenomenon because wolf-hybrids are considered to be exotic and prestigious to own. To circumvent the prohibition against keeping wolves as pets, enterprising people have gone underground and are breeding and selling wolf-dog hybrids in their backyards. Consequently, an increase in the number of hybrids are being possessed without the minimum public safeguards required for the common domestic dog. TRAITS OF DOGS AND WOLVES Since wolf hybrids are a genetic mixture of wolves and dogs, they can seem to be similar on the surface. However, even though both may appear to be physically similar, there are many behavioral differences between wolves and dogs. Wolves raised in the wild appear to fear humans and will avoid contact whenever possible. Wolves raised in captivity are not as fearful of humans. This suggests that such fear may be learned rather than inherited. Dogs, on the other hand, socialize quite readily with humans, often preferring human company to that of other dogs.

  • (HSVMA) Veterinary Report on Puppy Mills May 2013
    Humane Society Veterinary Medical Association (HSVMA) Veterinary Report on Puppy Mills May 2013 Puppy mills are large-scale canine commercial breeding establishments (CBEs) where puppies are produced in large numbers and dogs are kept in inhumane conditions for commercial sale. That is, the dog breeding facility keeps so many dogs that the needs of the breeding dogs and puppies are not met sufficiently to provide a reasonably decent quality of life for all of the animals. Although the conditions in CBEs vary widely in quality, puppy mills are typically operated with an emphasis on profits over animal welfare and the dogs often live in substandard conditions, housed for their entire reproductive lives in cages or runs, provided little to no positive human interaction or other forms of environmental enrichment, and minimal to no veterinary care. This report reviews the following: • What Makes a Breeding Facility a “Puppy Mill”? • How are Puppies from Puppy Mills Sold? • How Many Puppies Come from Puppy Mills? • Mill Environment Impact on Dog Health • Common Ailments of Puppies from Puppy Mills • Impact of Resale Process on Puppy Health • How Puppy Buyers are Affected • Impact on Animal Shelters and Other Organizations • Conclusion • References What Makes a Breeding Facility a “Puppy Mill”? Emphasis on Quantity not Quality Puppy mills focus on quantity rather than quality. That is, they concentrate on producing as many puppies as possible to maximize profits, impacting the quality of the puppies that are produced. This leads to extreme overcrowding, with some CBEs housing 1,000+ dogs (often referred to as “mega mills”). When dogs live in overcrowded conditions, diseases spread easily.

  • Heartworm Prevention
    THE WHOLE STORY ABOUT HEARTWORM (much of which you may not be told otherwise) Notes by Lee Cullens, March 2008 (revised 08/24/08) In memory of Daisy 1997-2007 a beloved companion that suffered because of my ignorance, and blind acceptance of advice from those regarded as knowledgeable. The crucial quality of life decisions are yours alone, and should be based on as much balanced information as can be acquired. Your companion animal can’t speak for itself, it relies on your sense of responsibility for protection. This paper was compiled, in part, because of commercial interest fear tactics, misinformation, and the susceptibility of many to not see beyond such. I suspected there was more to the issue, and believed a more balanced understanding might help other companion animals. This paper is not intended as medical advice, and should not be taken as such. It is simply a compilation of notes from my research to better maintain the health of my own dogs, and is shared for informational purposes only. The idea is to be much better prepared when one does consult with a veterinarian :-) Nor am I asking that you “believe” everything I put forth, but I do hope, for the sake of your companion animals, that you read and understand the contents of this paper. You should not believe anything unless you have satisfied yourself with further thorough unbiased research. Big industry has only one real objective, and that is profits. One needs to be able to distinguish between reality, and product promotion with its inherent underground current of misinformation and manipulation.

  • Devocalization Fact Sheet
    Humane Society Veterinary Medical Association Devocalization Fact Sheet Views of humane treatment of animals in both the veterinary profession and our society as a whole are evolving. Many practicing clinicians are refusing to perform non‐therapeutic surgeries such as devocalization, declawing, ear cropping and tail docking of dogs and cats because these procedures provide no medical benefit to the animals and are done purely for the convenience or cosmetic preferences of the caregiver. At this point, devocalization procedures are not widely included in veterinary medical school curricula. What is partial devocalization? What is total devocalization? The veterinary medical term for the devocalization procedure is ventriculocordectomy. When the surgery is performed for the non‐therapeutic purpose of pet owner convenience, the goal is to muffle or eliminate dog barking or cat meowing. Ventriculocordectomy refers to the surgical removal of the vocal cords. They are composed of ligament and muscle, covered with mucosal tissue. Partial devocalization refers to removal of only a portion of the vocal cords. Total devocalization refers to removal of a major portion of the vocal cords. How are these procedures performed? Vocal cord removal is not a minor surgery by any means. It is an invasive procedure with the inherent risks of anesthesia, infection, blood loss and other serious complications. Furthermore, it does not appear to have a high efficacy rate since many patients have the procedure performed more than once, either to try to obtain more definitive vocal results or to correct unintentional consequences of their previous surgeries. Often only the volume and/or pitch of animals’ voices are changed by these procedures.

It begins by examining some of the general discussions surrounding the use of animals in research. The historical views on the moral status of animals, the debate surrounding their use in animals, as well as the current 3R paradigm and its application in Canadian research are explored. The thesis then moves on to expound the moral system of utilitarianism as put forth by Jeremy Bentham and John Stuart Mill, as well as contemporary additions to the system. It also looks at the basics of Buddhist ethics well distinguishing the Mahayana from the Therevada. Three case studies in animal research are used to explore how both systems can be applied to animal research. It then offers a comparison as to how both ethical systems function within the field of animal research and explores the implications in their application on its practice.

  • 50 Things You May Not Know About the Ottawa Humane Society 1
    50 Things You May Not Know about the Ottawa Humane Society 1. The Ottawa Humane Society is a very old organization. The OHS was founded in 1888, as the Women's Humane Society. Last year was our 125th Anniversary. 2. We are the parent of the Children's Aid Society. The OHS was founded to protect the welfare of animals and children. The Children's Aid Society branched off from the OHS several years later. 3. The Ottawa Humane Society is a not-for-profit and a registered charity. We are governed by a board of 14. 4. The OHS may be bigger than you think. Last year, our regular staff compliment was 102 full- and part-time staff. (Though almost half are part-time.) Our budget is $6.2 million. Nearly two-thirds of this comes from donors and supporters. 5. The OHS is now located at 245 West Hunt Club Many people still don't know that we relocated in June 2011. 6. West Hunt Club is the OHS's fourth shelter. The first was built on Mann Avenue in 1933. 7. The new OHS West Hunt Club shelter is more than three times the size of the old Champagne Ave. Shelter. Despite its size, one month after it opened in June 2011, the new shelter was full. 8. The OHS cares for over 10,000 animals every year. Last year, 6,181 were cats; 2,111 were dogs; 1,279 were wildlife; 411 were small animals 9. Despite the fact that Ottawa is growing, the number of homeless animals is not.

  • 2019 Biennial Compensation and Benefits Survey EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Information Submitted on Or Before May 7, 2020
    2019 Biennial Compensation and Benefits Survey EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Information Submitted on or before May 7, 2020 I N T R O D U C T I O N A N D I N S I G H T S Organizations in the field of animal welfare employ a unique workforce with distinctive expertise in leadership, organizational governance, animal protection, animal cruelty investigation, behavior rehabilitation, veterinary care, adoption, fundraising, advocacy, human resources, finance, community education and collaboration. Although compensation and benefits surveys exist for many industries, no salary study is compatible with the knowledge and skills needed for mastery of animal welfare. For that reason, The Association for Animal Welfare Advancement (The Association) leadership were compelled to begin collecting data in 2003 (based on FY 2002 data). Since 2003, animal welfare services have evolved: adoption is no longer the main activity at animal care facilities as the numbers of homeless dogs and cats have declined in many regions; community needs have altered; collaborations and mergers have increased; and, animal focused legislation has fluctuated. In response, animal care facilities models continue to adapt to community and animal needs. Consequently The Association volunteer leadership continually reviews the compensation and benefits survey adding or altering job descriptions and accessing needs for additional decision making data. For instance, the effect on salary of those achieving Certified Animal Welfare Administrator (CAWA) status; or, being a male/female in the same role are now studied. In 2019 the first “digital” survey was launched, based on FY 2018 data, allowing participants to instantly compare their data with other regions and budget size over a variety of key performance indicators.

  • Prehistoric Dogs of Bc Wolves in Sheeps' Clothing?
    PREHISTORIC DOGS OF B.C. WOLVES IN SHEEPS’ CLOTHING? By GRANT KEDDIE [* This Article was originally published in: The Midden. Publication of the Archaeological Society of British Columbia, 25 (1):3-5, February 1993] Throughout the history of North American we see many varieties of native dogs. In British Colombia we find the Bear Dog of the Northern Interior and parts of the northern Coast used for hunting and packing, and a coyote-resembling dog of the southern Interior and Coast used mostly for hunting. On the southern Coast we also find what has become known as the Salish Wool Dog, kept mainly for the production of wool from its thick soft inner coat. With the use of their hair to make of blankets and capes high in trade value, these dogs made an important contribution to the status of their owners. The origin of the dog is particularly interesting. Where did they come from, and how long ago? Figure 1. These dogs seen in 1873 at the Village of Quasela in Smiths Inlet closely resemble the descriptions of Wool Dogs. They also, however, strongly resemble the Papillion breed, which was popular in Spain in the 18th century and were probably traded to B.C. natives by the Spaniards. The Papillon, possibly like the Wool Dog, is a mixture of a northern spitz and a southern variety of dog. (Blow up of RBCM PN10074 by Richard Maynard) In many parts of the world dogs have undoubtedly played a key role in the development of human hunting strategy and technology over the last 12,000 years.

  • “Bark! Bark! Bark!” Used with Permission from Denver Dumb Friends League and Humane Society of the United States
    “Bark! Bark! Bark!” Used with permission from Denver Dumb Friends League and Humane Society of the United States. Some canine behavior problems, such as house soiling, affect only a dog’s owners. However, problems such as escaping and excessive barking can result in neighborhood disputes and violations of animal control ordinances. Therefore, barking dogs can become “people problems.” If your dog’s barking has created neighborhood tension, it might be a good idea to discuss the problem with your neighbors. It’s perfectly normal and reasonable for dogs to bark from time to time, just as children make noise when they play outside. However, continual barking for long periods of time is a sign that your dog has a problem that needs to be addressed. The first thing you need to do is determine when and for how long your dog barks, and what’s causing him to bark. You may need to do some detective work to obtain this information, especially if the barking occurs when you’re not home. Ask your neighbors, drive or walk around the block and watch and listen for a while, or start a tape recorder or video camera when you leave for work. Hopefully, you’ll be able to discover which of the common problems discussed below is the cause of your dog’s barking. Social Isolation/Frustration/Attention-Seeking Your dog may be barking because he’s bored and lonely if: He’s left alone for long periods of time without opportunities for interaction with you. His environment is relatively barren, without playmates or toys.
