  • Selecting a Livestock Guardian Dog Puppy
    University of California Cooperative Extension Livestock Protection Tools Fact Sheets Number 5 Selecting a Livestock Guardian Dog Puppy By Dan Macon, Livestock and Natural Resources Advisor (Placer-Nevada-Sutter-Yuba) and Carolyn Whitesell, Human- Wildlife Interactions Advisor (San Mateo-San Francisco) Adapted from “How to Select an LGD Puppy” by Bill Constanzo, Livestock Guardian Dog Research Specialist, Texas A&M AgriLife Center Overview Puppy selection is often the critical first step towards successfully using livestock guardian dogs (LGDs) in a production setting. While appropriate bonding during the first 12-18 months of a dog’s life is important, pups with an inherent genetic predisposition for guarding livestock are more likely to become successful adult LGDs. Furthermore, physical traits (like hair coat, color, mature size, etc.) are preset by a pup’s genetics. Keep in mind that LGD behaviors are greatly influenced by how they are treated during the first year of their life. This fact sheet will help you select an LGD pup that will most likely fit your particular needs. Buy a Pup from Reputable Genetics: Purchasing a pup from working parents will increase the likelihood of success. A knowledgeable breeder (who may also be a livestock producer) will know the pedigree of his or her pups, as well as the individual behaviors of the parents. While observation over time is generally more reliable than puppy aptitude testing, you should still try to observe the pups, as well as the parents, in their working setting. Were the pups whelped where they could hear and smell livestock before their eyes were open? What kind of production system (e.g., open range, farm flock, extensive pasture system, etc.) do the parents work in? If you cannot observe the pups in person before purchasing, ask the breeder for photos and/or videos, and ask them about the behavioral traits discussed below.

Each farm and ranch should strive to source the right kind of genetics for their situation.

  • Interspecies Affection and Military Aims Was There a Totalitarian Dog?
    Interspecies Affection and Military Aims Was There a Totalitarian Dog? XENIA CHERKAEV Academy for International and Area Studies, Harvard University, USA ELENA TIPIKINA Borey Art Center, St. Petersburg, Russia Abstract The image of totalitarianism is central to liberal ideology as the nefarious antithe- sis of free market exchange: the inevitable outcome of planned economies, which control their subjects’ lives down to the most intimate detail. Against this image of complete state control, the multispecies ethnography of early Soviet institutions gives us a fortuitous edge to ask how centrally planned economies structure the lives of those actors whose biosocial demands can be neither stamped out nor befuddled by propaganda. In this article we exam- ine the institutions of the Stalinist state that could have created the totalitarian service dog: institutions that planned the distribution, raising, and breeding of family dogs for military service. Our narrative begins with a recently discovered genealogical document, issued to a German Shepherd bred by plan and born during the World War II Leningrad Blockade. Read- ing this document together with service-dog manuals, Soviet physiological studies, archival military documents, and autobiographical narratives, we unravel the history of Leningrad’s early Soviet military-service dog husbandry program. This program, we argue, relied on a particular distinction of public and private: at once stimulating affectionate interspecies bonds between dogs and their handlers and sequestering those relationships from the image of rational, scientifically objective interspecies communication. This reduction of human-dog relations to those criteria that could be scientifically studied and centrally planned yielded tangible results: it allowed the State’s dog husbandry program to create apparently unified groups of dogs and dog handlers and to successfully mobilize these groups for new military tasks, like mine detection, during World War II.

Life stages are defined by both age and breed characteristics for practical purposes. Each patient visit should use an individualized approach to patient handling, preventive care, and early disease detection. Environment, behav- ior, nutrition, parasite control, vaccinations, dental care, zoonotic disease control, safety, and reproductive health should be addressed. (J Am Anim Hosp Assoc 2012; 48:1–11.

By opening up your home to foster pets, you’re not only helping to save lives, you’re providing the individual attention and care these puppies desperately need. Puppies are some of the most at-risk pets in shelters because they require intensive around-the-clock care, and many shelters don’t have the resources or staff to provide that level of care. That’s why the focus of our puppy foster program is to rescue puppies up to eight weeks of age from our shelter. Not only does fostering help puppies find forever families, it saves their lives and greatly decreases the number of dogs and puppies who are euthanized. Foster homes are asked to provide care for the puppies and provide transportation to and from veterinary appointments as needed.
