Appeals court allows autism helper dog in class

September 2nd, 2010

An Illinois appeals court has agreed to allow a central Illinois student to keep his autism helper dog in school.

The Fourth District Appellate Court sided with the family of Kaleb Drew. They had argued that the boy’s yellow Labrador retriever is a service animal allowed in schools under state law.

The boy’s mother had testified that the dog prevents the boy from running away, helps him focus on his homework and calms him when he has a tantrum.

The appeals court upheld the November decision of a Douglas County judge. The court issued its opinion Tuesday.

The Villa Grove school district had opposed the dog’s presence and argued that it isn’t a true service animal. A telephone message for the school district’s attorney was not immediately returned.

Honda Element & your pooch

August 24th, 2010

From Andrew Clark, Globe & Mail

Stopped at a red light, I turn to my right and catch a glimpse of the occupants in the adjacent car. There are two of them. The driver is a middle-aged woman with a glazed expression on her face; her lips drawn into a taut grin, her teeth the colour of brushed concrete. A small dog sits on her lap peering through the steering wheel. It could be a terrier. It’s tough to tell.

Though outwardly content, there is a tangible unease simmering beneath the canine’s furry exterior. What had this dog done in its previous life to deserve such a fate? Investment banking? Tech support? Mass murder? Imagine being a mutt and finding yourself stuck in a co-dependent relationship that involves “helping” your “mommy” drive her car? Usually such creatures are forced to wear colourful hand-knitted vests. This one, at least, has been spared.

It’s time to pause and savour the stupidity. Here is a person so dim that she thinks it’s a good idea to place a live dog on her lap and go for a drive (a not-living dog would also be a distraction). She is an awe-inspiring monument epitomizing the many shades of dumb that will eventually lead our species to extinction. The light changes and off she goes.

“Adieu and safe journey my animal-loving friend,” I say in a whisper as she pulls away. “It’s people like you who make writing a column about driving worthwhile.”

It’s a special moment, to be sure, but hardly a rare one. Pet owners love bringing their furry friends everywhere and that means loading them into the car. So far, so okay. But what goes through the mind of a driver as he or she places a small animal on his or her groin? Even dogs know dogs don’t belong there. Driving a car with a dog (or cat) on your lap (or anywhere in your lap vicinity) is a very, very stupid thing to do. Are these folks so psychologically dependent on their pets that they cannot bear to be separated from them? Even the back seat is too far away? Do these animal lovers think, “Hey, I’m just about to drive an automobile, to navigate roads and highways at high speeds in a rolling hunk of steel; maybe if I put a small mammal on my lap that will help things out?”

Picture the exchange between man’s best friend and his emotionally crippled driver/owner.

Dog: “WTF? Why am I in the front seat? Does my owner not know dogs don’t belong in the front seat of an automobile?”

Driver: (mouthing the sounds) “A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K …”

Dog: “If I had opposable thumbs I would grab the wheel, put paw to pedal, and pull a Thelma and Louise right off a cliff.”

Driver: “L, M, N…N…N…N…”

Still, if basic common sense is not enough for you and you’re the kind of person who is instantly hypnotized by the words “statistics show,” “experts believe” or “survey says” a new study has been released that shows empirically pets should not roam free inside automobiles. The survey of 1,000 Yankee Doodle dog owners was conducted for the American Automobile Association (AAA) and the pet-restraint maker Kurgo. It revealed that pets are a frequent driving distraction. Two-thirds of those questioned copped to having their attention diverted by their dogs. Half said they had petted their dogs while driving with 20 per cent admitting they kept dogs lap-side when driving. Seven per cent claimed they fed their dogs while motoring and 5 per cent said they played with their dogs. Dog owners probably do a lot of other even more unseemly things but they weren’t asked about those.

If you think having a pet in the backseat is okay, think again. According to Beth Mosher, AAA director of public affairs, an “unrestrained 10-pound dog in a crash at 50 mph will exert roughly 500 pounds of pressure, while an unrestrained 80-pound dog in a crash at only 30 mph will exert 2,400 pounds of pressure. Imagine the devastation that can cause to your pet and anyone in the vehicle in its path.” The AAA suggests putting your animal in some kind of restraint. The doggie version of light bondage gear, I suppose. Some car companies offer built-in dog accessories. The Honda Element, for instance, comes with a “Dog-Friendly” package.

Personally, I find it tough to imagine cooking up a canine safe word and “restraining” a dog in the backseat. It seems evil. A dog in the backseat, its head out the window, jowls flapping in the breeze, slobber staining the glass, is a happy dog. Even someone as awful as I am can’t imagine taking away that kind of pure joy. And, after all, what’s endangering yourself and others when a dog’s happiness is at stake?

Woof.

Caring for pets shaped human evolution

August 18th, 2010

Dogs, cats, cows and other domesticated animals may have been vital to human evolution, a new theory suggests.

The uniquely human habit of taking in and employing animals — even competitors like wolves — spurred on human tool-making and language, which have both driven humanity’s success, paleoanthropologist Pat Shipman of Penn State University, says.

“Wherever you go in the world, whatever ecosystem, whatever culture, people live with animals,” Discovery News quoted Shipman as saying.

For early humans, taking in and caring for animals would seem like a poor strategy for survival.
“On the face of it, you are wasting your resources. So this is a very weird behavior,” Shipman said.

But it’s not so weird in the context something else humans were doing about 2.6 million years ago: switching from a mostly vegetarian diet to one rich in meat. This happened because humans invented stone hunting tools that enabled them to compete with other top predators. Quite a rapid and bizarre switch for any animal, Shipman said.

“We shortcut the evolutionary process,” said Shipman. “We don’t have the equipment to be carnivores.”

So we invented the equipment, learned how to track and kill, and eventually took in animals who also knew how to hunt — like wolves and other canines. Others, like goats, cows and horses, provided milk, hair and, finally, hides and meat.

Managing all of these animals — or just tracking them — requires technology, knowledge and ways to preserves and convey information. So languages had to develop and evolve to meet the challenges.

Tracking game has even been argued to be the origin of scientific inquiry, said Peter Richerson, professor emeritus in the Department of Environmental Science and Policy at the University of California, Davis.

One of the signs that this happened is in petroglyphs and other rock art left by ancient peoples. At first they were abstract, geometric patterns that are impossible to decipher. Then they converge on one subject: animals.

“Think what isn’t there: people, landscapes, fruit and edible plants,” said Shipman. This implies that animals and information about animals was of great importance.

There have also been genetic changes in both humans and our animals, Shipman argues.

For the animals those changes developed because human bred them for specific traits, like a cow that gives more milk or a hen that lays more eggs.

But this evolutionary influence works both ways. Dogs, for instance, might have have been selectively taken in by humans who shared genes for more compassion. Those humans then prospered — a.k.a. reproduced — with the dogs’ help in hunting and securing their homes.

The theory has been published in the latest issue of Current Anthropology.

Why city folks treat dogs as their kids

August 18th, 2010

A researcher at Indiana University South Bend found that city people tend to treat animals as their children, especially if the animal is a dog.

“If you have kids, you have less time to spend with your pets. That’s part of it, but not the whole story. People who think of their pets as their children often re-evaluate this thought when they have human children of their own,” said David Blouin.

Blouin’s study found that 93 percent of dog owners and 77 percent of cat owners took their pets to the veterinarian at least one time a year.

Some admitted that they spent significant sums of money on their pet’s health, addressing routine care, such as vaccinations, as well more serious conditions such as skin allergies, Crohn’s disease and diabetes.

The frequency of interactions owners had with their pets, as well as how often they took them to the veterinarian, were closely tied to how owners viewed their pets — whether as a child, a companion, or just another, albeit, useful animal, said Blouin.

Stem cells for doggies?

August 5th, 2010

Super-expensive pet medical treatments revealed

Stem cell transplants, state-of-the-art image-guided radiation, sophisticated diagnostic procedures to pinpoint everything from cancer to lung disease. New and improved health care for the uninsured or underinsured? Nope. Medical treatment for the nation’s pets, some of whom have a better shot at being healed than people living in the same state.

Last year, Americans spent $12 billion to pay their vet bills, according to The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. That’s twice what pet owners spent just 10 years ago.

For many people, investing in an ailing pet’s life “improves the quality of a human life immeasurably more than, say, buying a luxury car,” Dr. Patty Khuly, a vet at Miami’s Sunset Animal Clinic, told the AP.

These days, vets are using increasingly sophisticated medical techniques on the 77 million dogs, 90 million cats, and all the other pets that live in the U.S. The treatments are neck in neck with what humans can expect if they fall ill. The reason for all the high-tech pet care? “The changing role of the pet in our society,” Khuly told the AP.

The Animal Medical Center in Manhattan is home to a half-million-dollar, cutting-edge 3-D imaging scanner that was a present from a client whose pet was saved there. The AMC, which is a not-for-profit research and teaching facility, has 81 vets. No fewer than 27 have certification in fields like endoscopy, neurology, oncology, radiology and cardiology.

The center treats pets like Alpha, a Bernese mountain dog with terrible back pain, who gets electrical neuromuscular stimulation via a light laser. He also exercises on an underwater treadmill and lies beneath a heat pack to help his lumbo-sacral disease.

Painful arthritis in a pet now can be healed with a $4,000 stem cell transplant not approved for humans, according to the AMC. And a surgical procedure to repair dogs’ torn knee ligaments at the University of Wisconsin-Madison School of Veterinary Medicine is proving to be so successful it is now used to treat NFL players, according to the AP. Also pioneered at this school is an image-guided radiation technique that targets pet tumors and leaves surrounding tissue unharmed. Called TomoTherapy, it’s also used on people – several hundred machines are used globally on human cancers.

The AMC sees 40,000 patients a year and not all are cats and dogs. They’ve also treated lambs, iguanas and even a ring-tailed lemur- a primate that hails from Madagascar.

Who’s paying for all this care? Some people have pet insurance, some have interest-free credit cards for vet bills, and hospitals offer payment plans. And for those who can’t afford treatment for pets with illnesses that could prove fatal, the AMC raises funds.

Summer park patrols to focus on dog control

July 29th, 2010

Pooches in Burnaby parks will have to be on their best behaviour now that city parks staff are patrolling parks as part of a new dog education program approved by the parks commission recently.

Previously, the B.C. SPCA has patrolled parks in the summer—on weekends in May and June and on a rotating five-day schedule July through Labour Day—augmented by a part-time city parks staff person. Internal staffing changes mean the SPCA is no longer able to do the seasonal work.

In response, the Burnaby parks department has developed its own program this year with patrols expanded to five days a week from April 30 to Sept. 20, according to a city staff report.

The parks staff aim to take a proactive approach in parks where the majority of complaints are received—Ron McLean, David Gray, Deer Lake, Robert Burnaby, Barnet Beach and Burnaby Heights parks, as well as parks near and on the route to these locations.

The complaints mainly involve dogs being off leash, owners not picking up after their dogs, dogs on sports fields and trails and loud, noisy dogs at dog parks.

Parks staff will hand out information pamphlets to dog owners, inform them of parks bylaws, gather feedback and look at possible improvements to written material, signage and maintenance issues.

“A longer term goal of the program would be to have responsible dog owners provide assistance to new dog owners in proper etiquette on park sites,” the report said.

In the first nine days of the program, the patrols spoke to 167 dog owners and a number of park users without dogs.

“Immediate compliance regarding dogs off leash has been possible on all but nine occasions where patrons did not have a leash with them.”

Program teaches troubled youths to teach dogs

July 28th, 2010

Canine companionship is helping some local kids turn around their troubled pasts at the Macomb County Juvenile Justice Center.

A program called Teacher’s Pet has them train dogs taken in by animal control, helping them develop responsibility, empathy and self-esteem — and, eventually, finding homes for the strays.

“The dogs can be frustrating to work with sometimes, but it’s good to have someone to talk to when things aren’t going right,” said Lindsay, 15, who has been in the program for a couple of months. “I like knowing that I helped these dogs find a good home.”

The program was started about 14 months ago with youths and six dogs in hourlong sessions held twice a week for about six weeks.

Since then, the center has expanded it to 20 youths and 14 dogs in sessions held Tuesday through Friday, said Berry Treadwell, the program’s coordinator. The sessions for girls and boys are held separately.

In the 14 months since the program has existed at the center, 46 youths and 73 dogs have gone through it. All but one dog has been adopted, he said.

“It builds self-esteem and self-worth and teaches the kids empathy,” Treadwell said. “And the better you feel about yourself, the better you treat other people.”

For Lindsay, who has been at the center for 3 1/2 months, the program has meant a lot. She said it’s taught her patience and understanding as well as the value of friendship.

“They help you cope,” she said. “They teach you that it’s OK to make mistakes and not know everything.”

Under Teacher’s Pet, the youths at the Juvenile Justice Center teach the strays basic obedience skills and care for them. After the six weeks is over, the dogs “graduate” and are put up for adoption at the county’s animal shelter.

“The dogs that come in with the most problems always leave the best-trained dogs,” said Lisa Rabine, program facilitator and dog trainer with Teacher’s Pet. “The kids here just do a wonderful job.”

Treadwell said Teacher’s Pet has zero recidivism, meaning those who have gone through it have stayed out of trouble.

Funding for the program comes primarily from donations, but the county contributes a nominal amount of money to help cover the cost of supplies for the dogs and the trainers’ time, Treadwell said.

The program is the brainchild of a nonprofit agency with the same name that started in Waterford Township about six years ago.

It works with dogs and kids at the Kingsley Montgomery School in Waterford, Crossroads for Youth in Oxford and Oakland County’s Children’s Village in addition to the Macomb Juvenile Justice Center. The Macomb program, however, is the largest, said Rabine.

“(In the program), they’re helping the animals, but they’re also helping themselves,” said Charles Seidelman, the Juvenile Justice Center’s director.

“They’re learning to be responsible; to give something away when it’s usually been all about them.”

Give a dog a drink, and don’t let it overheat

July 21st, 2010

If you exercise outside, you know how miserably hot it is. Imagine doing so without having enough water, or being heat-acclimated, or being able to go indoors when you want. Now you have an idea of what your pet might deal with.

“They can overheat so quickly,” says Maura Davies, senior director of communications for the SPCA of Texas. “We had a sad situation recently where someone had taken a dog running in the heat of the day. The dog got heat exhaustion and passed away. It was awful. It broke that person’s heart, and it broke ours.”

Davies and Tricia Bracksieck, a 22-year vet technician and hospital manager for VCA Pet Doctor in Richardson, offer these tips for keeping pets safe:

Watch for symptoms of heat illness. Excessive panting, listless eyes and gasping for air are all telltale signs, Bracksieck says. “Like humans, it comes on when they’re not fully hydrated and don’t have enough shade,” she says. Bring your pet indoors and offer water. If the symptoms continue, call your vet.

“Even with water, dogs can overheat,” Davies says. “Their bodies don’t cool off as efficiently as ours.” If your pet passes out, take it to the vet immediately.

Acclimate your dog. If you exercise outdoors, you know the importance of gradually building up so you’ll adjust to the heat. Your dog needs that, too, Davies says. Also, limit strenuous walks or runs to before the sun rises or after it sets. Check with your vet to make sure your dog is up to the exercise. Bracksieck suggests carrying a foldable water bowl and offering water from the bottle you’re no doubt carrying for yourself.

Know which dogs are especially prone to heat illness. Those being treated for heartworm or those who have fleas tend to be more at risk, Bracksieck says. So do old and young dogs, as well as those with snub noses such as boxers, pugs, Pekingese and some spaniels, Davies adds. “Their throats and breathing passages are smaller and more flattened. That can tend to decrease the ability to get air in and out of the upper airways. It can lead to serious issues, especially if you’re talking about running with a dog who’s trying to pant to cool off.”

Don’t leave your dog in the car while you run, or ever. “Even if you have the windows rolled down a little and the temperature is in the 80s, it can reach well over 100 in a matter of minutes,” Davies says. “If you see an animal in a car, you can contact local authorities.”

Paint Thinner Alert for New West

July 9th, 2010

New West vet issues warning after cats ‘tortured’ with paint thinner

A New Westminster family is horrified after their cat was allegedly dipped in paint thinner last week.

Jennifer Szoke said Harley, her two-year-old orange cat, is suffering from a burnt tongue and throat after trying to groom the toxic substance out of his fur.

“I’m just so upset,” Szoke said. “It looks like it was deliberate because he was only soaked waist down.”

Szoke’s eight-year-old son, Nate Milanov, has taken to hugging a stuffed toy that is the same colour as Harley, who is currently under a veterinarian’s care.

“He keeps on saying he wants his cat to come home, but I just don’t know how to tell him his cat has been poisoned,” she said.

Szoke said the incident happened last Friday when Harley and another cat, Linden, were both “tortured.”

“I saw my cat running down the street and she was completely drenched,” said Linden’s owner, Corrine, who didn’t want to to give her last name. “I picked her up and she just reeked of paint thinner.”

She was able to wash Linden, who is recovering well despite being lethargic.

Corrine also saw Harley but he unfortunately ran off and was not found until two hours later. By then, the cat had attempted to groom himself clean and swallowed the chemical in the process.

“I just can’t imagine what kind of sick person can be so cruel to do this to an innocent cat,” said Tammy McEvoy, Szoke’s former roommate said.

She and Szoke have been forced to take out a loan to cover Harley’s medical costs.

Dr. Trevor Enberg at the Canada West Veterinary Hospital said Harley’s chances of a full recovery are good.

“He is actually in better condition than we expected, although he is not able to breathe by himself and needs a feeding tube,” Enberg said.

Sukh Deepak of New Westminster Animal Services is warning pet owners to be extra vigilant. He has also informed New Westminster police, who are now investigating the crime.

Meanwhile, the cat, nicknamed “Mr. Davidson,” for his loud Harley Davidson-like purr, remains affectionate to his doctors and owners.

Harley’s treatment costs range from $5,000 to $15,000 depending on how his condition worsens, but Szoke is determined to raise the money she can ill-afford.

“He’s just part of the family and we won’t give up until he gives up fighting,” said a teary Szoke.

McEvoy and Szoke also approached Trev Deeley Motorcycles, located near the vet hospital, for a partnership to raise money.

“His voice is almost gone, so hopefully we can get his roaring meow back,” McEvoy said.

To donate money for Harley’s care, please visit here. A drop box will also be set up at the Deeley motorcycle dealership at 1875 Boundary Rd.

United Pet Group Expands Food Recall

July 7th, 2010

To Include Cat and Dog Products as well

Due to salmonella concerns, United Pet Group of Cincinnati has expanded its recent recall of its Pro-Pet Adult Daily Vitamin tablets for dogs to include additional branded and private label pet care products. The expanded recall, issued July 2, includes more Pro-Pet products as well as various Excel-branded and private label pet supplements and clean-up products for cats and dogs.

Laboratory testing has revealed that some lots of these products may be contaminated with salmonella, according to the company. The company said it is recalling additional products out of “an abundance of caution.”

The affected products are in tablet and powdered form and were sold nationally at various retailers, including Petco and Doctors Foster and Smith, United Pet Group reported.

The affected products carry expiration dates from “01/2013” through “06/2013.” Products with expirations dates before “01/2013” or after “06/2013” are not included in the recall.

The company had issued a voluntary recall in late June of all unexpired lots of its Pro-Pet Adult Daily Vitamin tablets for dogs. At that time, the company reported that one lot of the vitamin product was contaminated with salmonella.

Pets with salmonella infections may be lethargic and have diarrhea or bloody diarrhea, fever, and vomiting. Some pets may have decreased appetite, fever and abdominal pain. Infected but otherwise healthy pets can be carriers and infect other animals or humans, according to the company. Pet owners are urged to contact their veterinarian if their pet has consumed the recalled product and is exhibiting these symptoms.

Humans can also become infected, especially if they have not thoroughly washed their hands after having contact with the raw pet food or surfaces exposed to the recalled product, according to the company. Symptoms in humans may include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, fever and headache. Children, the elderly and people with compromised immune systems are particularly susceptible to infection, according to the company.

Consumers who have purchased the affected products are urged to contact United Pet Group or the place of purchase for further direction. Consumers may contact United Pet Group at 1-877-399-5226, Monday through Friday, from 8:30 am to 5:00 pm EST.
