Rough Mountain spotted fever is a standout amongst the most generally known tick-borne sicknesses to influence pooches. It has a place with a class of illnesses known as Rickettsia; bar molded microorganisms that take after microbes, yet which act like infections, duplicating just inside living cells.

Prairie dogs have been blamed for a slew of unfounded ills and punished for them. On one occasion, the FDA and CDC euthanized thousands of rodents because of a monkey pox scare. Watson’s work and life reveals the humanity of this keystone species. Prairie dogs have a distinct language that has been mapped by scientists, with calls able to differentiate breeds of dogs and humans. They are one of the few

Writer and best-selling author, Richard Preston, in his non-fiction thriller, The Hot Zone: A Terrifying True Story, tells about the origins and incidents involving major filoviruses, such as Ebola and Marburg. Preston highlights multiple cases of the people who dealt and came with close contact to the viruses, from the possible contraction of Marburg by Monet, to Nurse Mayinga’s case of Ebola Zaire, to the biohazard operation at the Ebola-infested monkey house in Reston. Through this, he influences the public’s view on the viruses with an informative, but dramatized tone. Although the depictions strike convincing fear into many hearts, there are inaccuracies that blur the true reality of Ebola, especially with its symptoms and method of transmission.
, Mand most importantly, they never get love and affection. Some of them do not even know what love is and how it feels to have a owner that would do anything for their dog.

Some of these include, epilepsy, heart disease, kidney disease, musculoskeletal disorders, endocrine disorders, blood disorders, deafness, eye problems, and respiratory disorders.

Many of these puppies have behavioral problems such as fear and lack of socialization with humans and other animals. “Puppies born in puppy mills are typically
The first isolated case of Hendra Virus Disease was noted in Hendra, a suburb in Brisbane Australia. It was brought to researcher’s attention when an outbreak of respiratory and neurological diseases connected by humans and horses was recorded in 1994. Researchers soon found the natural reservoir, the long term host for the virus, in “flying foxes”. More commonly known as bats, these viral hosts are bats of the genus Pteropus. Transmission of this disease includes exposure and contact of bodily tissues, fluids or excretions from horses infected with the virus.
Pet’s actions could be a sing of rabies or other disease, but it is more likely it was not the first dog’s visit to
Introduction It has long been said, even in biblical references (Luke 16:19-31) that dogs have somewhat of ‘special powers’ with regards to their healing abilities. (Patching, 2008) In some areas of the world dog saliva would be used as an antibacterial because it contains some similar properties to that of disinfectants, which would theoretically be able to kill harmful bacteria in wounds and aid in the process of the healing. If a dog has an open wound, the dog is likely to lick the wound in order to ensure that their saliva has direct contact with the open sore to prevent growth of bacteria that could lead to infection.
Like the Spanish Flu, Covid-19 is a highly contagious virus that led to a global crisis, becoming a pandemic. Both pandemics have claimed millions of lives worldwide, causing widespread devastation. However, advancements in medical science have allowed for rapid vaccine development, providing a significant remedy against Covid-19. Vaccination efforts have played a crucial role in gaining immunity and controlling the spread of the
It's you. You’re the market for these sick, suffering dogs. Instead of going to a shelter or to an animal rescue group and adopting a dog for $300 (with all vetting included) because they are “old”,“ugly” or “used”. You go into a puppy store and buy a perfect pure puppy. The market for these dogs is so high therefore the problem will never stop.
Introduction: The purpose for vaccines is to simulate the effects of natural immunization without the risk posed by contracting the virus. For over 50 years, it has been the custom for people to give their pets yearly vaccinations. To what extent does over-vaccination detrimentally affect the health and well-being of dogs?

Human monkeypox is a viral zoonotic disease caused by the monkeypox virus (MPXV), a member of the genus Orthopoxvirus (family Poxviridae, subfamily Chordopoxvirinae), that occurs mostly in the rain forests of central and western Africa. People living in or near the forested areas may have indirect or low-level exposure, possibly leading to subclinical infection. However, the disease recently emerged in the United States in imported wild rodents from Africa. Monkeypox has a clinical presentation very similar to that of ordinary forms of smallpox, including flulike symptoms, fever, malaise, back pain, headache, and characteristic rash. Given this clinical spectrum, differential diagnosis to rule out smallpox is very important.
A big part of the problem lies with the lack of government funds for the animal shelters in Puerto Rico. The government only provides $1.5 million in seed funding to create animal services for all 78 municipalities. All the while these animal shelters are filled to capacity, which means the death rate goes up for these “rescued” dogs so only a handful more can be picked up off the streets. There are about two hundred thousand dogs roaming the streets and neighborhoods along the island. In Puerto Rico, there are at least 500 dogs euthanized each day, while in the United States there are 1.2 million dogs each year.
