  • Australian Silky Terrier - a True Blue Aussie
    Petcare Hints Australian Silky Terrier - a true blue Aussie This versatile little dog is another Australian made product which has won acclaim, not only in its own country, but throughout the world. It is a one family dog, very loyal with a great sense of humour, affectionate and gentle. As a house dog he is easily trained and clean. The smallest of the Australian breeds, he is none the less very courageous and an excellent watch dog. It is believed that this breed developed along the same lines as the Australian Terrier, being descended from Broken Coated Terriers, and early records show that a Broken Coated Terrier bitch of a blue sheen colour was taken from Tasmania to England in the 1820¹s and bred to a Dandie Dinmont Terrier. A Mr Macarthur Little purchased some puppies from these litters and was so impressed that he proceeded to establish a similar type of terrier with a soft coat. Later he migrated to Australia and brought some of his dogs with him. He settled near Sydney and continued to experiment in breeding these little dogs. Several were sold to Charles Hincliffe, who moved to the goldfields near Ballarat in Victoria and the little silky coated dogs soon became well known around the district. By 1908 the breed had become well established. It came in two sizes - over 6 pounds and under 12 pounds. A trophy was offered at the Sydney Royal Show for an owner who won Best of Breed three years in succession and the award was a small gold brick on a chain, known as "The Prince of Wales Trophy".

  • Portosystemic Shunt (PSS)
    VP Client Information Sheets By VIN Community Contributors Portosystemic Shunt (PSS) Authored by: Becky Lundgren, DVM A portosystemic shunt (PSS, portasystemic shunt, portocaval shunt, portacaval shunt, liver shunt, hepatic shunt, or porto-systemic vascular anomaly) happens when a pet’s venous blood from the stomach, intestines, pancreas, and spleen bypasses the liver. The pet can be born with the shunt (congenital) or can get it later (acquired). About 80% of the cases are congenital, although sometimes a pet can have both types. About 25-33% of the congenital shunts are within the liver. Approximately 0.18% of all dogs have congenital shunting. During pregnancy, the portal blood vessel in the fetus bypasses the liver (the mother’s liver filters out toxins for the fetus). Normally this shunt closes within three days after birth. In affected animals, the shunt doesn't close and the blood continues to bypass the liver. Because the liver filters toxins, if it is bypassed the toxins build up in the body. This results in the puppy or kitten having slow or nonexistent growth (failure to thrive). If left untreated, puppies and kittens are not likely to survive. Congenital shunts seem to happen more in purebreds than in mixed breeds. Breeds with increased risk of PSS include Yorkshire terrier, Maltese terrier, Silky terrier, miniature schnauzer, miniature and toy poodles, Lhasa apso, Bichon Frise, shih tzu, Havanese, Dandie Dinmont terrier, Pekingese, German shepherd dog, golden retriever, Doberman pinscher, Labrador retriever, Irish setter, Samoyed, Old English sheepdog, Irish wolfhound, Australian shepherd, Australian cattle dog, Himalayan, and Persian. No sex predisposition has been documented.

Intervertebral disc disease Generally, the level of evidence available was low with no controlled studies and only case series avail- Neurological able. In the meta-analysis, there was a clear trend to a greater proportion of dogs recovering and returning Spinal faster to ambulation for dogs treated with hemilaminectomy than for conservatively treated dogs. The mean proportions that recovered for neurological grades 3, 4 and 5 were 93, 93 and 61% for those treated with hemilaminectomy, and 79, 62 and 10% for those treated conservatively (Grade 3 – non-ambulatory paraparetic dogs; grade 4 – paraplegic dogs with intact deep pain perception; grade 5 – paraplegic dogs without intact deep pain perception).
