HOW TO REMOVE A TICK FROM YOUR DOG

Ticks are creepy insects that carry and spread diseases to both humans and animals, including Lyme disease, tick fever, Q fever, and more. In order to reduce or prevent disease, you must properly remove a tick as soon as it is discovered and dispose of it appropriately.

Here is how to remove a tick correctly:

The proper way to dislodge the tick is it with tweezers. Go at the tick more from the side than the top. Try to get the tweezers between the skin and the tick's jaws, and gently pull, by moving the tweezer a little with a side-to-side motion. A steady pull over a few minutes time, will usually tire out the tick enough to release its grip. Be gentle, yet firm. otherwise tick may leave its mouth part in your dog's body and that will be a serious problem. You should pick the mouth parts out like a splinter. if you are not sure enough, take the help of your vet to ease the dog.

CORNEAL ULCERS

corneal ulcer - Recurrent ulcers and refractory ones that do not heal properly occur more commonly in middle-aged and older dogs.
Clinical Signs - The cornea lacks the presence of blood vessels, it is well equipped with nerves to detect pain. Even the slightest injury will provoke considerable discomfort. Other signs of corneal ulcer include blepharospasm, epiphora, purulent ocular discharge, and photophobia.
Symptoms - Common symptoms of corneal ulcer include pain, squinting or blinking the affected eye, pawing or rubbing at the eye, excessive tearing or discharge, pus, redness, and behavioral changes such as hiding or avoiding light.
Description - The cornea, or front of the eye, has three very important functions. It acts as a supportive barrier to keep the internal structures in place within the eye. The cornea allows light to pass into the eye and thus through the lens to the retina at the back of the eye. It also bends the incoming light rays to aid the lens in focusing the incoming light. The cornea is composed of five microscopically identifiable layers. When the cornea is injured, the extent to which these layers are involved will determine the severity of the injury, the treatment required and the prognosis for saving the eyesight in the injured eye. Recurrences are common and complications are highly likely. Significant corneal disease and ulceration associated with herpesvirus infections in cats are unpredictable in their response to treatment.

GUINEA PIG FOOD

Guinea pigs are extremely cute animals and they also pretty smart. Veterinarians recommend that guinea pig treats should only equal out to 20% of the overall diet. This means that most of the time the guinea pig should only receive the pellets as food. Treats should only be given on special occasions around 2 to 3 times a week.
Carrots are known to be one of the guinea pigs favorite treats. They should be cut in very small sections because of the risk of the animal choking on them. Only place a few of the pieces in the cage at a time and wait for the guinea pig to eat all of them before you give them more. They also love green, leafy vegetables. You can tear them into small pieces and feed them to the guinea pig. Always remember to wash all the vegetables thoroughly before you feed them to the animal.
Any kind of fruit can be given as guinea pig treats. Apples, cherries, blueberries and grapes are some of the most commonly liked favorites and they are also healthy for the guinea pig.

YOUR DOG AND CHOCOLATES

chocolates are toxic to dogs and can almost kill them. Many people think that culprit is caffeine. It is not rather, it is the theobromine in chocolate that is the potential dog killer. How much chocolate will kill a dog? It depends on the age and health of your pet. If your dog is twelve years old and did not have a healthy life; a smaller amount of chocolate might be lethal . Whereas active two years old dog may tolerate it well.
White chocolate will make your dog sick because of the fat content long before the toxic levels of theobromine are reached.
Symptoms of chocolate poisoning - vomiting or diarrhea, trembling, over-excited, or actually start to have seizures. It may fall into a coma and ultimately die. The best thing to do for your pet is to get it to your veterinarian within two hours of the ingestion.
