1.Never leave your plates, utensils, magazines, papers and other things on the coffee table or any low furniture as your puppy will try to get them and could chew on such things. These could cause them harm like choking or being able to swallow something harmful.
2.Trash should never be exposed to the puppies. They should be kept in a secure place for them not to have access to it.
3. When you have ashtrays at home, make sure that your puppies do not reach them as they could suffer from nicotine poisoned when they get to chew and swallow cigarette butts.

Camping would really be a great experience especially if you get to enjoy it and spend this wonderful activity with your dog. Your camping will even be more enjoyed when all the preparations and the right planning are done. It is important for you to make sure that you bring all the necessary things your and your dog are going to use throughout the camp.
Some supplies you should have packed for your dog include two leashes at least just in case one of them breaks or if it gets lost, plastic bags you can use to clean and pick up after your dog, and there should be plenty of fresh drinking water.

Taking Dog Vitals

1
Use a rectal thermometer to take your dog's temperature when you think he might be ill. Rub a little petroleum jelly on the tip and insert it 1 inch into his rectum. Leave it there for 1 minute. Hold the base of his tail firmly during this process to prevent him from sitting on the thermometer.

2
Read the temperature. A normal temperature for a healthy dog is between 101 degrees and 102 degrees. Some vets recommend calling their office when your dog's temperature reaches 103 degrees. A temperature of 100 degrees or lower in a female dog, close to giving birth, indicates labor is imminent.

Goodbye Dear Friend

We lost our best buddy yesterday after a long battle with cancer. He was a great dog and will be greatly missed. Below is a poem for all of us who have lost great friends 















"Rainbow Bridge There is a bridge connecting heaven and earth It is called Rainbow Bridge because of its many colours Just this side of the Rainbow Bridge there is a land of meadows, hills, valleys with lush green grass When a beloved pet dies, the pet goes to this special place There is always food and water and warm spring weather The old and frail are young again Those who are maimed are made whole again They play all day with each other There is only one thing missing They are not with their special person who loved them on Earth So each day they run and play until the day comes when one suddenly stops playing and looks up !
