Biker Dogs

Get your motor runnin’
Head out on the highway
Lookin’ for adventure
And whatever comes our way
Yeah Darlin’ go make it happen
Take the world in a love embrace
Fire all of your guns at once
And explode into space

Like a true nature’s child
We were born, born to be wild
We can climb so high
I never wanna die

Born to be wild
Born to be wild

Can Dogs Detect Diseases?

Canines have an extraordinary sense of smell. Many scientists believe that sense of smell can predict illnesses. Below are some diseases that suggest that animal’s sense of smell is an early detection meter for these diseases.

Malaria

There is some evidence that a dog can detect Malaria by sniffing the socks of someone that has it. Researchers are doing trials with a Labrador retriever that may be detecting Malaria in children even if they are sowing no symptoms.

Breast cancer

Currently dogs are being tested to detect breast cancer by the smell of a person’s breath. If these tests prove to be conclusive early detection will be available and much safer for people over 50 years of age.

Prostate cancer

There was a test done in Germany in 2015. Two German Shepherds were trained to detect prostate cancer in the urine sample of men. In 90% of the cases the dogs were correct in determining prostate cancer.

Parkinson’s disease

Test are being run at Manchester University in training dog’s after a dog detected a change in his owner’s “smell” six years before an actual diagnosis.

Diabetes

Dogs have already with accuracy been able to detect high blood sugar levels. Dog’s smell can detect by the smell of the human’s breath and their sweat if they have an abnormally high sugar level.

You Won’t Believe This Is The Same Dog!

Dogs that have been abused, neglected, or abandoned are brought into animal shelters all to often. To often the dogs are so far gone a decision must be made if the dog can be rehabilitated or humanly euthanized.

Watch this heartwarming video of a dog that was on deaths door, and quite frankly if it wasn’t for the love and care of the people at this shelter this spirited dog should no longer be with us. He was thrown out like trash, but showed a spirit and will to live, and live to his fullest.

The Most Popular Dog Collars

What are the most popular and the best dog collars for your dog? Always consider comfort, safety and ease of use when considering a collar for your dog.

Flat Collar

Pretty much every pet parent is familiar with a flat collar—it’s the most common type of collar, and the gold standard.

Ideally, once your dog knows his boundaries and it trained, the most common and widely used flat collar is the preferred collar for your dog.

A dog that is well behaved and trained should be able to be walked with the common flat collar.

Flat Collar Tip: Do not pull or tug your dog when he is wearing a flat collar. It should just be a devise that knows you are connected with your dog.

Head Collar

A dog head collar is like a halter collar. It can make it easier to tug and get your dog’s attention as it connects over your dog’s snout and behind his ears. It makes your dog feel safe.

Dog Harness

There are two main types of harnesses: a front-clip harness, where the leash attaches at your dog’s chest, and a back-clip harness, where the leash attaches on your dog’s back. Many of today’s modern harnesses conveniently have both.

A front clip harness attaches the leash to the harness on your dog’s chest.

A back clip harness attached to the back of the harness on the dogs upper back.

The benefit of a harness is that there is no pressure on tugging on your dog’s neck. The only issue may be with aggressive dogs that pull to hard and may hurt their back.

Pinch (Prong) Collar

This is one of the more controversial collars—some claim if used properly, it’s the perfect training tool, while others claim the collar hurts dogs and is abusive.

This collar is very controversial. While many praise it as the perfect training collar is used correctly, many feel that it causes pain and improper use can be abusive. It is especially important that this type of collar be fitted properly. The prong collar should only be used for corrections.

Slip Collar

Easy to physically overpower a strong, untrained dog. You will see slip collars at shelters and vet offices in situations where for safety’s sake, untrained or extremely unhappy dogs must be controlled by their human caretaker, willing or not.

Summary

When you are deciding what kind of collar to use for your dog consider the type of dog your have and the collar that will best control your dog and his habits and personality. If you have a troublesome dog it is always advisable to get professional training.
