5 Tests To Check To See If Your Pet Is Sick From The Dr. Oz Show

admin — Tue, 11 May 2010 18:06:43 +0000

Dr. Oz and his dog Rosie were with the Vet on Dr. Oz today to give us the 5 tests to check our pets ourselves.

1. Flip the lips — gums should be bubble gum pink.
2. Flip the ears — look in the ear canal, feel for heat, if you see black with little white thing moving around, they are mites.
3. Rub the ribs — feel along the ribs starting at the base of the neck and work your way all the way down the spine, if your pet whimpers or flinches, or tries to bite that shows you have a problem with the spinal cord.
4. Feel the fur — rub the fur for lumps, bumps, and ticks. Rub the fur backwards and if the pets fur falls right back down it means they are well hydrated. If you lift it up and it sinks down like molasses it means they need some kind of coat or skin supplement.
5. Take their temperature — You don’t need to stick a thermometer up the butt, use a
Pet-Temp Instant Ear Thermometer and pop it into their ear and the dog’s temperature should be 102 degree’s.

Canine Influenza: Virus Established In About 30 States

admin — Wed, 05 May 2010 18:58:09 +0000

DVM Newsmagazine recently spoke with Patti Cynthia Crawford, DVM, PhD, clinical assistant professor of shelter medicine for Maddie’s Shelter Medicine Program at the University of Florida College of Veterinary Medicine, about the attention focused on canine influenza. Crawford states that we have not recognized previously that dogs were susceptible to infection by influenza viruses. This virus was first reported in dogs and associated with the occurrence of respiratory infections in 2004. So just five years ago, it was first reported, and I would say that it is now a recently recognized viral infection of dogs as opposed to newly emerging virus. Canine influenza is a community-acquired infection. It occurs in facilities where dogs are housed together and there is a high frequency of movement in and out of the facility. Dogs that are in shelters, boarding or training facilities, day-care centers, veterinary clinics, pet stores and grooming parlors are at the highest risk for exposure to canine influenza virus, especially if the facilities are in communities where the virus is prevalent. Like influenza viruses in other species, canine influenza virus causes an acute respiratory infection in dogs. The clinical signs are very similar to respiratory disease caused by other viruses and bacteria known to cause kennel cough. The term kennel cough is well recognized by dog owners and used by veterinarians to describe a cough that a dog develops while boarding, visiting the grooming parlor or after purchase from a pet store. The illness is very flu-like and similar to what humans experience when they are infected with an influenza virus. They experience a cough, which is the primary sign, sneezing and a runny nose. The cough can persist for tow to three weeks. Most dogs recover from the illness however, some progress to pneumonia, usually due to secondary bacterial infections. In which case will require intensive care in a hospital setting under veterinary supervision. Crawford suggests that when an outbreak occurs, the first step is diagnosis. It is very hard to know how to manage an outbreak of respiratory disease if you don’t know what is causing it. Crawford believes that the threat of an outbreak is more serious now because it can be spread between dogs. It is highly contagious, just like influenza viruses are generally. There is lab confirmation of infected dogs now in 30 states and the District of Columbia. Five years ago the virus was only detected in Florida. But as we began looking at more and more dogs across the country, the numbers increased to thousands and many more states. (DVM Magazine, August 2009)

Testimonials

“I am the happy owner of a Pet-Temp Pet Thermometer. I am a volunteer for an animal rescue group. I deal with the cats and just dread taking rectal temperatures. I am sure the cats dread this, also. Using the Pet-Temp is much more convenient, and more pleasant, than trying to use a rectal thermometer on a scared cat. I can honestly say that the Pet-Temp is much less stressful on these rescued cats and kittens. I hope I never have to be without one.”
