New Heartworm Treatment – Does it Work?
Heartworm is again on the rise, according to statistics from the America Heartworm Associations (Heartworm Incidence Maps – American Heartworm Society). Heartworms can be deadly. Unfortunately, traditional heartworm treatment is expensive, painful and difficult. In recent years some veterinarians have elected to use an off-label treatment that appears to be safe and effective while also less painful, less expensive and less difficult. Now a new study confirms that this treatment is up to 90% effective in naturally infected dogs.

Closet Confidential – WKC… Who Wore What?

We know what is important!

Chernobyl Dogs – How They Adapted To The Ultimate Inhospitable Environment
As we know, the foundational strains of our breeds originally developed in response to prevailing conditions. Specialized selection, which added the finishing touches, came much later. Modern breed development built on the natural groundwork of the dog’s genetic plasticity. Blistering hot, arid, frigid or wet, adaptation truly became the canine key to survival. Where other species merely thrived or failed in response to changing conditions, dogs systematically tailored their physiology to conquer their environmental demands. That has resulted in everything from hairless dogs impervious to heat to Nordic breeds ideally adapted to arctic zones. It also explains the globally pervasive presence of domestic dogs.
