Wolf domesticated dog’s ancestor!

imagesI just read this from somewhere that although most domesticated dogs are not much like wolves in appearance and bark instead of howling, it is generally believe that some kind of wolf was their ancestor. Wolves line in the northern half of the world, in places that vary from the hot plains of India to the barren grounds of the arctic. The gray, or timber, wolf (Canis lupus) was once found throughout much of the region but is now found only in the wildest parts.

Wolves are intelligent animals. They live in family groups or packs of up to two dozen or more. Many stories are told the ferocity with which wolves may attack man. But these tales are greatly exaggerated. Wolves are not dangerous animals. They only attack people when they are threatened or if they are extremely hungry.

Studies on wolves have shown them to have an extremely interesting social behavior. They make use of a number of calls, facial expressions, and body postures as well as the use of scent marking of their territory.

Thank God is not serious dog illness

I love to cuddle my dogs every time so I always notice if something is wrong with them. One morning while cuddle the two dogs, I notice my shihzu terrier prince red eyes and I just ignore it because he always experience red eyes because of the tick bites on his eyelids but when I still notice that his left eye is still reddish. I examine it and I was really shock what happen to my prince eye. It swollen and I was really worried that his eyeballs might removed his eyes because of the swollen. I immediately went to the vet to know what the cause of the swelling is. Thank God, I have same money save that time and the swelling is not a serious illness. The cause of it is too much pressure in barking.
The vet advice me to refrain my dog from barking too much because it create pressure on his eye that is the cause of swelling and if prince will continue with the barking, there is a possibility that the left eye will be remove, how sad is that! The vet even asks me if I use choker chain for prince, why would I use a choker for my little shitzu terrier. Eventually, the swollen is starting to vanish, the drops the vet gave me really helps with the reddish and swollen.

A Disappointing News

I was really expecting that my bebe princess will soon have little puppies but since she got sick last month and there’s that possibility that the pregnancy will not push through and will terminated immediately because of the medication. I am still hoping that will not happen because I really want my bebe princess and prince to have puppies this year, but there is nothing wrong if I hope that the medicine will not affect the future puppies, wont I?

The vet ask me that if I want princess to get well I have to forget having a puppies this year because the medication that my dog needs will affect the future puppies (if princess is pregnant) to be. The vet is right, anyways I still have next year for princess to get pregnant, I just have to take extra care with my pet dogs this time. Take same extra precaution and give them vaccine that they needed to ensure that my pet dogs would be safe from bacteria and viruses.
