Dogs News and Curiosities

If you ever doubted whether to take special care of your dog’s mouth or not the article that I just read will take the doubt off of your mind and you’ll run to the nearest pet store and purchase the necessary elements to start cleaning your pup’s mouth… at least I know we will.

We weren’t really sure if this was needed or was just part of this entire trend about treating dogs like they are persons, but now after reading this piece we are truly convinced that dental care for dogs is absolutely necessary. There mouths are every were, they not only use them to eat, but to play and lick every thing that gets in their way so I guess is in their best interest to keep those mouths clean, don’t you think?

It is well known that chocolate and dogs don’t go well together, especially for our four legged friends, since it is highly poisonous for them to ingest cocoa. There are also several factors that can poison your dogs, and many of them aren’t even suspected to be that bad for them.

I found this list of dangers and thought it could help us all to keep our pup away from them.

There is also a really informative post in a blog that I find very interesting. Check it out

When we just got Dali we were all about bathing him and dressing him up and making him look his best and this and that. So one day after having bathed him I was kissing and hugging him and I noticed a not so pleasant smell coming from one of his ears and it caught my attention because I’ve read somewhere out there that dogs’ ears should not smell at all and boy was a right, we took him to the vet and sure enough he had an ear infection caused by water that got stuck in his ears, thank God with some medicine the infection was gone and now every time we give him a bath (as you can see in one of our video posts) we apply the solution the good vet recommended and the problem has been gone ever since. From then on we still are all about making him look good, smell and dress his best but now we do it consciously and think of his health and wellness before all.
