Pets are therapeutic. ™

There is nothing like a pet to improve your mood, it does not matter if it is a dog, cat, horse, donkey, pig or elephant.

The fact is that animals give out love and warmth, and one always knows that the affection given out by a pet is not motivated by greed or for that matter lust, it is pure love and affection with no holds barred.

We lost our beautiful Border Collie Tarbra in 2007, and we will never really stop missing and loving her. In March 2009 we lost our old cat Brando and the house turned into feeling like an empty shell, and yet somehow in a strange way, both Tarbra and Brando are still with us and probably always will be.

I went out into our garden this morning to hang out our washing on the line, and within minutes our neighbours cat Sooty was there brushing up against my leg for a fuss, she does this every time I hang the washing out or go and sit in the garden for any reason, Sooty loves it when it is sunny and I sit out on my garden lounger, she jumps up and climbs all over me, and just loves having her back scratched gently, then she goes to sleep on top of me still purring away like mad.

I love watching Sooty when she plays in the long grass, springing around chasing insects which for some reason she never seems to catch, rolling all over the place ending up on her back brushing herself against my feet and legs waiting for me to rub her tummy giving out little mews of joy, and I do not think anyone could resist patting her, least of all me.

I have had all sorts of pets living in my home over the years, from my pony Ben who I Treated for Arthritis while living in my home, pet lambs, pigs, as well as Donkeys, rabbits, mice, birds, dogs and cats, we even had foul such as a very noisy cockerel called red that my hubby came home with out of the blue one day to prevent him from ending up in a cooking pot.

The funny thing is that although I have no animals of my own right now, I cannot even walk down the street without some-ones pet making a B-line for me, I do not even have to look at a dog for it to start dragging its poor owner towards me, like I was a long lost friend. One woman who had a rescued dog near and enough accused me of being the horrible owner who had initially dumped the dog, of course I was not but she took some convincing as apparently this dog would not go near anyone normally, but was all over me, as I pointed out to her I obviously had not ill treated her dog or for that matter any animal.

It was because animals can instinctively feel my love for them that many of them automatically came to me for a fuss. Donkeys are the funniest I can sit in a car by a field of Donkeys and without opening my mouth, in a matter of virtually no time at all the Donkeys make a straight line towards me making a heck of a racket, it is as if they think I am another Donkey in their mist. Do I love Donkeys, you bet yea, if I had the property and the funds to do so I would have a Donkey sanctuary in a flash!

Pets really are therapeutic, we now have a Border Collie Puppy called Foxie, because I cannot survive this life without having animals around me to love and be loved by.

Sometimes this particular vaccine is titled DHPPV, DA2PPV or DHPPV-C or some 貓狗食物過敏 other similar variation. This particular vaccine is commonly referred to as the "Distemper-Parvo" vaccine or the "5-in-one" or "seven-in-one". Although there are some differences between them, you can tell what's in the vaccine based on the letters.

The D in DHPPV stands for Distemper. This airborne disease is actually a virus and attacks the nervous system in dogs causing the dog to have seizures, cough, vomit, and sometimes foam at the mouth. This disease is incredibly contagious and all dogs should be vaccinated with DHPPV as a result. Although secondary infections can be treated, most cases of Distemper are incurable and untreatable. Since this is a neurological disease, all dogs should be vaccinated for Distemper regularly. Puppies should receive a series of DHPPV shots before they are five months of age.

The H in DHPPV stands for Hepatitis also known as canine adenovirus type 2 (therefore when "A2" appears as part of this vaccine abbreviation, it refers to the same disease as the "H"). This disease, like the hepatitis in humans, attacks the liver and is contracted through a healthy dog's exposure to the feces, urine, blood, saliva, and nasal discharge of a dog who has the disease. Dogs are especially susceptible to this disease simply because they use their nose to sniff and evaluate their surroundings. Although hepatitis will correct itself in healthy individuals, it does come with symptoms that need treatment. These symptoms include diarrhea and poor immune response. Puppies and weak dogs are especially at risk.

One P in DHPPV stands for Parainfluenza. This is a respiratory tract infection (upper respiratory infection) in dogs, much like a cough or cold in humans. Some symptoms of it include nasal or eye discharge, coughing, and labored breathing. This is different than "kennel cough" or Bordetella, which is a separate vaccine.

One P in DHPPV is for Parvovirus. This is an incredibly contagious, often deadly virus that lives in soil for up to seven to ten years (depending on the study). Infected individuals shed the virus for up to three weeks and it can take up to ten days to two weeks for an infected animal to begin showing signs or symptoms. If an owner believes his or her animal has been exposed to parvo, the dog should be tested (at a vet's office) and vaccinated if he or she has not yet received the proper doses of the DHPPV vaccine. Parvo is very, very contagious.

Infected animals, usually young dogs and puppies, usually stop eating and drinking, lay around with little energy, and eventually have severe, dark, bloody diarrhea. Although some of these symptoms are the same as hookworm infestations, immediate action is necessary to ensure the dog's survival. There is no cure for parvo. Dogs will die from the dehydration and intestinal trauma, not the virus. Young dogs and puppies sometimes die within days of the beginning of symptoms.

Overnight care and IV fluids are required to keep dogs hydrated and comfortable while the virus runs it's course. This treatment often takes a few days and is very expensive. Owners should keep their puppies away from strange, potentially contaminated soil (like parks, strange yards, and dog parks) until the puppy is fully vaccinated ("fully vaccinated" means a series of vaccines 2-3 weeks apart from one another while the animal is still young).

The V stands for "Virus". CPV, for example, is simply the term used for Canine Parvovirus and is the abbreviation for a vaccine that only covers Parvo.

The L in DHLPPV stands for Leptospirosis. This disease is spread through urine and dogs contract the disease by licking a contaminated surface. Basically, leptospirosis, or lepto, is common mostly in kennels where strange, unknown, potentially contaminated dogs might urinate. The disease affects the liver and causes yellow eyes, lethargy, and sometimes renal failure. Many veterinarians have ceased giving a leptospirosis vaccine due to low risk under most circumstances.

The C in DHPPV-C stands for Coronavirus. This disease is spread through contaminated feces and causes diarrhea and vomiting in the infected dog. Although this disease is easily treated, it does manifest symptoms within three days of contamination. Because of the high level of exposure, kennel dogs are usually vaccinated for this disease.

DHPPV should be given annually to dogs under five years of age. Puppies should be vaccinated with DHPPV every 2 to 3 weeks until they are four months of age.

Consult your veterinarian if you have any questions or concerns about your animal's vaccinations.
