The project, as carried in the 4-H program, serves two purposes. First, it helps boys and girls develop a better understanding and/or apprecia- tion for animals; second, it serves as a tool to develop the personal qualities of young people. 4-H is a program of youth develop- ment and education. Experiences provided should be based on the needs and interests of the youth. 4-H encourages the participation of all youth regardless of race, color, sex, or national origin. Be sure you have a copy of Organizing a 4-H Club (4-H 0242L) and Planning a 4-H Club Program (4-H 0240L). They contain valuable information on 4-H, leadership, how clubs function, and planning a club program. There is an entire section devoted to working with boys and girls. Archival Copy.

  • Diploma in Dog Grooming
    Diploma in Dog Grooming Module 1: Introduction to Grooming In this module you’ll discover the fascinating origins of dog grooming and the historical methods used in the past. You’ll learn how grooming is important for canine health and hygiene, what makes a grooming business stand out above the others, and why grooming makes a paws-ome career choice. What you'll learn in this module 1.1 History and evolution of dog grooming 1.2 Origins of dog grooming 1.3 Bark the loudest! 1.4 A profession of the future 1.1 History and evolution of dog grooming It's clear from literature and especially paintings that, for centuries, dogs have consistently shared in peoples’ domestic lives. Many renaissance works show dogs which we're probably a status symbol, especially particular breeds. They were well presented and sometimes dressed or adorned which indicates that grooming practices existed even then. Paintings from the Victorian era in Britain also show the inclusion of well-groomed dogs in society. It was during the Belle Époque era of the late 19th and early 20th century in Paris that the profession of dog grooming flourished. Owners brought their dogs to the banks of the river Seine where dog groomers bathed them in the river and used tools to comb and beautify them. Dogs also became part of the revolution in fashions and attitudes of that time as they were groomed in certain styles that reflected current trends. In 1933, the first dog grooming salon opened in Paris, owned by Madame Andras. Over the next 30 years, she trained numerous professionals.

  • Grooming: a New Horizon in Health Management of Dogs
    Vol.1 Issue-8, APRIL 2021 (e-ISSN: 2582-8223) Grooming: A New Horizon in Health Management of Dogs Sonam Bhatt1, Vivek Kumar Singh2 ,⃰ Pallav Shekhar1, Anil Kumar2 1 Assistant Professor , Department of Veterinary Medicine, Bihar Veterinary College, Patna. Assistant Professor2, Department of Veterinary Clinical Complex, Bihar Veterinary College, Patna. ARTICLE ID: 026 Introduction: Earlier the veterinary clinics were known to be the place where sick dogs were treated and cured of the diseases. Now an emerging concept of grooming has been added. In a good veterinary clinic, grooming facilities must be available. There is a close relationship between grooming and health management.This article will be helpful in understanding the true meaning of grooming and its importance in health management. Grooming: Canine grooming refers to the hygienic care and cleaning of a dog, as well as a process by which a dog's physical appearance is enhanced for showing or other types of competition. A dog should be groomed twice daily for 30 minutes before feeding regularly. Regular grooming provides the handler an opportunity to become friendly with his dog and at the same time, to find out any wounds, injuries, external parasites or any skin infections of the dog in his care. Due to the busy schedule of the dog owners, it is not possible for them to groom their dog on regular basis, therefore, the dogs must be groomed under the supervision of a vet at regular intervals. Grooming under the supervision of a vet gives an opportunity to observe any abnormality present on the body of the dog.

  • Wanted: Huge Hearts and Spines of Steel
    Autumn 2019 Upcoming Events Nov. 28 – Thanksgiving Meal on (sponsored by Pauly Construction Focus – proceeds to CDHS) Feb. 13 – Giving Hearts Day all Mar. 21 – Bene-Pet Fours A publication for friends of the Central Dakota Humane Society WANTED: HUGE HEARTS AND SPINES OF STEEL By Annette Tait CDHS Foster Program Coordinator It’s a tough job that CDHS fosters willingly take on again… and again… and again. The joy and satisfaction of seeing “our kids” grow and thrive dims the memories of lost sleep, juggled schedules, and frequent worries that come hand-in-paw with caring for our most vulnerable critters. CDHS fosters have met that challenge head-on this year by caring for more than a third of the 65 kittens – most without mamas -- that have come through our doors since early summer. “I didn’t realize there was even such a thing as being foster parents for kittens until we heard about it through the shelter, and thought it would be kind of fun,” said CDHS foster volunteer Karrie Bauman. Bauman is caring for her first litter of orphan kittens with husband Scott, daughter Taya, and son JJ. Karrie and Taya – who also volunteer in the cat building – began their foster experience with eyes wide open. They knew there would be plenty of work to go along with the fun of having kittens in the house. “The first week was the hardest, when they were just on formula,” Karrie said. “If you just go into it knowing each stage is a short stage, you think ‘I can get through this.’” The tiniest orphans need to be bottle fed every two hours and stimulated to go potty (something their mothers would normally do).
