5 Things To Know About Parvo |
 |
Some people may be surprised to know that parvo is still around. Unfortunately, puppies and unvaccinated dogs still die from this disease.
Canine Parvovirus is thought to be a mutation from the feline Parvovirus, also known as Feline Distemper virus. The canine version of this disease is commonly referred to as Parvo. The virus first appeared clinically in 1978, and there was a widespread epidemic in dogs of all ages because it was a new virus and no dogs had been exposed to it before. A vaccine was created. The incidence of this disease in adult vaccinated dogs is now thankfully extremely rare. But parvo still kills puppies and non-vaccinated dogs....Read Full Post |

Help - My Dog Bit Someone! |
|
 Most domesticated dogs generally get along well with people. After all, they are pets that have evolved with humans for hundreds of years or more. This may be part of the reason many owners underestimate their dogs. When it comes down to it, dogs are animals with sharp teeth that can truly injure another person. A dog may bite a person for a variety of reasons. She might sense a threat and feel the need to protect the home and/or family. She may be frightened by something and become defensive. Perhaps she has a behavior problem. She could even be in pain and/or injured. Regardless of the reason, a dog bite is a serious situation that can be overwhelming for all parties involved.

Ask Amy: Why Do Cats Drool When Petted |
|
I loved this Ask Amy article because my long-ago white cat, Arthur drooled like crazy while shedding white hair all over me when I held her in my lap. It was a family joke that loving on Arthur was akin to being tarred and feathered. Sally has the same problem with her kitty, Tuxedo. She wrote:"Whenever I pet him and he starts purring, he drools all over the place. He can't seem to swallow and purr at the same time. Neither of the other cats do this, but I have known other cats who do this. Why does this happen? Did his mum forgot to teach him how to purr and swallow or are his facial muscles so relaxed that they are unable to work? Why is this unique to some cats and not to others? I just try and put a towel under him when we are petting on him."Amy's reply was logical, warmly delivered, with just a touch of humor. If you have a cat with a "leaky faucet," be sure to read this Ask Amy Q&A.

Protecting tenants who report harassment |
|
Q I'm feeling increasingly uncomfortable about the dynamics I'm witnessing at my apartment community. The manager is constantly hitting on my neighbor in public settings (like the pool), even to the point of insisting that she accept his "back rubs." She hates it and has tried to stop it, but she's afraid to complain to the owner (the manager is the owner's son). If I complain to the owner, can he evict me?
