KEEN VISION ON YOUR PET

golden-retriever-puppiesWhen this happens your work begins then, bring a large bloating paper or a old newspaper sheet and just place it on top of the pee and allow it to soak for a couple of minutes. Then remove this paper and place it in a location where you think the pup can do the job. Place the paper there and keep some stones on top of it so it remains in that place. You have to supervise the pup with great care and make sure the pup does not relieve again inside the house. Clean place where the pup peed earlier thoroughly with vinegar which can remove odour. Now once in two hour you physically carry the pup and put him down near the soaked paper and mostly he will relieve himself. Once he does that praise him nicely like saying ‘that’s a good boy’. Then pick him and take him inside the home. Apart from the two hours slot please remember to bring him to this area after every meal, after he gets up from sleep and also when you notice him vigorously smelling the floor.

SOLUTIONS FOR DOGGIE PROBLEMS

dogsSo many solutions for this problem naturally should start from the owners/handlers here is the solution for this toilet habits which can effectively followed for a young pup. Follow step by step this sure shot formula which we call “48 hours window” and enjoy the benefits for the life time of your dog. Prevention is better than cure -this is apt for many situations in this world and is perfect for our dogs too. We will try and prevent the dogs from using the areas which are not supposed to use for peeing and pooping. So this brings our focus to have a designated place where you think that the dog can do the job. Once this is identified and in place, our program of 48 hours window starts. The first 48 hours after the pup’s arrival is not crucial but it is the right time to set the boundaries. On arrival the pup tries to smell all surrounding areas in your home. There is a possibility of peeing when a pup is around.

DAY BY DAY

ist2_10581911-happy-cartoon-golden-retrieverThe new owners probably did not mind it then and cleaned it up with much less fuss. But as the day progressed this was becoming the major problem because the pup which was growing fast was still using the inside of the home for its toilet needs. Dogs grow up quite fast and in less than a year most attain full growth and become adult dogs. During this period the dog picks up plenty of habits good as well as bad. But you can relate every one of them to their human owners/handlers. Dog’s behaviors are direct reflections of what their human owners did with them or did not do with them.

SETTING THE TOILET HABIT

270793-main_FullThe general complaint is that my dog pees and poops whenever he wants inside the house, most of them will add to it by saying that they take their dogs for regular walks and while the dogs do not do their job outside but the moment they come in the house they mess up inside the house. This will include places like carpet, couch, bedroom and it is a long list. many a times the owners are frustrated with their dogs and some of them take out all the frustrated anger on their dogs. Let us take a few step try to understand this problem as how it started and developed this way. this takes us back to the first day of pup’s arrival. When the new pup arrived then everyone in the home was excited and i am sure that the pup was pampered. For the pup it was a new environment new people and in the process of settling down it must have started peeing and pooping whenever and where ever it wanted to inside the home.

HERBAL THERAPY

PD*27491525Both CHINESE and WESTERN herbal therapies can be useful in treating the atopic animal. It is necessary to try with different herbs or combinations in order to match the correct therapy to the dog. Most of them have had most experience with Chinese herbal formulas. Although we can cure dogs without herbs, some owners prefer herbal medicine and some cases require atrial with herbs if they do not respond to other therapies. several herbs that may be helpful include scutellaria, tribulus, anemarrhena, and capillaries. Because atopic dermatitis is a heritable condition, affected dogs should not be bred. Decreasing the gene pool for this condition will do a great deal in decreasing the number of allergic dogs produced in the future. Although there is no best treatment for atopic dermatitis in dogs, there are a number of options. But remember: what works well on one dog might not work on another one. Hopefully, by working with your doctor over time you can find what works the best for your pet . The goal of the treatment is to reduce itching and to do so with a minimum amount of medication. Realistically, however we will probably never completely eliminate this annoying condition.

HOMEOPATHY AND ACUPUNCTURE:

0405dogsHomeopathy involves the use of extremely diluted substance to heal the body through the release of vital energy. The rule in homeopathy is that “like treats like” so a thorough history, examination and laboratory testing are needed to properly choose the correct remedy. There are a number of remedies that can be tried in allergic dogs. Usually remedies of high potency are prescribed. the following remedies may prove helpful : sulphur, arsen alb, rhustox and hepar sulph. By stimulating specific acupuncture points, doctors can help stimulate the dogs immune system and reduce itching and inflammation associated with allergic dermatitis. The first case treated with acupuncture was a dog with atopic dermatitis that had failed to respond to other complementary therapies. the dog, a boxer responded after three treatments and was maintained over a year with treatment every three weeks before developing another problem which required additional treatments.

ANTIOXIDANTS AND DIET

tiger1mediumHigher doses of vitamin C, E and A offer relief for some atopic dogs. These vitamins function to detoxify histamines, optimize adrenal function, decrease skin-cell destruction and optimize function of immune system. Because antioxidants can alter blood levels of cortisol and thyroid hormones, a blood profile checking for adrenal and thyroid disease is important prior to administration. Although hypoallergenic diets can help dogs with food allergies they are not routinely prescribed for atopic animals. a trial dose using one of these diets might lower the itching in dogs with both food allergy and atopy; diets with fatty acid supplement might also help atopic dogs. Finally most doctors who work in complementary therapies would suggest a trail dose of homemade rather than processed food, or at least a “natural” processed food. The preservative-free diets can reduce itching in some cases. At some point in the treatment, before giving up and resigning the dogs to a life of corticosteriods, try a homemade diet using fresh ingredients. Some pets respond dramatically to just this simple step.

DECONTAMINATION AND FATTY ACIDS

A very important part of the therapy for atopic pets is external decontamination using various shampoos, conditioners and leave-on residual products. The main benign include ingredients such as aloe vera and colloidal oatmeal. More stubborn cases require the addition of pramoxine, antihistamines or corticosteriods. Frequent use, we have to use 2-3 times weekly, is essential to reduce antigen exposure thus reducing the need for systematic medications. Any program that does not emphasize topical decontamination in the severely itchy dog is doomed to failure. What once seemed bizarre or complementary is now taken under the part of conventional approach to treating atopic disease by most doctors. Still, being a nutritional product. Fatty-acids therapy could fit under the banner of complementary treatment. We still do not know what is the best fatty acid or even the best dose. I have been using omega-3 fatty acid at double to quadruple the label dose: Some experimentation with various products might be needed. In additional some newer diets with increased fatty acid is beneficial.

ALTERNATIVE THERAPIES

Due to the potential for serious side effects, many veterinarians believe it is best to choose a therapy that is safer for a long term use by these itchy pets. Complementary therapies are used to reduce preferably eliminate the need for chronic drug therapy, allowing resolution of the itching without the troubling side effects us often seen with conventional treatment. Following are several successful complementary therapies: ENZYMES -some dogs respond to health-blend formulas, enzyme preparation and barley grass supplement. these products in some unknown way minimize the body’s chemicals that cause itching and inflammation. Enzymes allow increased nutrients absorption; these nutrients then can alter the chemical responsible for the dogs itching.
