If I get a certificate of good health for my dog to travel will I be able to travel the next day?

We weren’t going to take our dog with us to Mexico but we decided last minute that she’s going too.

She has her appointment tomorrow morning to get her certificate and we leave Friday Morning.

Is that possible? Or do we have to wait a while?

Ok I live in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada and I think I may have contracted rabies, this is a long question i warn you, so please help me if you don’t mind reading…

Ok so first read this: http://www.ccohs.ca/oshanswers/diseases/…

Alright now I will tell you my story about rabies i think i may have gotten;

So yesterday my friend invited me over to see his new dog, it is 4 months old and absolutely adorable. He is a german shepard and border Collie mixed. Anyways when i saw him he was in the backyard and since i am in canada it was cold and snowy, and it was a record breaking 7 degrees , hence, everything melting. So anyways this gog was all muddy from the mud, when he saw us (my friend and i) he jumped on us so happy and playful, the dog however licked an open cut on me, scratched me and got the doggieness all over me(all my accident of course) i had to go home and i ate something without washing my hands quickly, i was in a rush to get somewhere. So i got freaked. Today i was in the kitchen and accidentally broke a glass and poked my finger, what if rabies got in my blood because a)the possible rabies from the slobber and dirty paws got all over my kitchen from me transfering them, hence later getting into my cut 1 day later and b) because the dogness of the dog got on my coat and clothes and i put my coat on my begd with the germs side on it, i slep in it and put my fingers touching my eyes to rid of the discharge in the morning and that is a open mucus membrane.

my friend said his pupy kept throwing up all the time, i aske dif she was rabid(as a joke yet i was half serious!) and he said if he was he(my friend) would be dead, he said he was up to date on his shots.

So am i being paranoid?I asked my mother is i could have gotten rabies and she said”pfft” not as a house pet.

soo..what do you think i should do?

like the dog wasnt rabid looking but i thought if it had rabies too early to experience symptoms, hence, spreading the disease to others..

Doberman Dog Health Problem, Lymphoma, Infection, Unknown. Please Help?

Hi,

My 9 month old Doberman who until two weeks ago has been totally healthy, he developed a swollen lymph node under the left side of his neck. I took him the day I noticed the swelling to the local canine emergency hospital and was told that he had a high fever and that the swelling was likely due to an infection. The doctor prescribed Cephalexin 500mgs 1.5 tablets every 12hrs ( used to treat bacteria ). After 4 days the medication had no effect, the swelling had worsen and at this point the right lymph node has mildly swollen. I then took him to my local veterinarian who has been a doctor for over 30years. He conducted various tests; temperature, lymph node cell sample (taken by empty needle, observed under a microscope), blood work, urine test. Once the tests were complete he then prescribed for Giovanni (my dog) Prednisone 50mg (used to reduce swelling) and Amoxi-Clav 375mg ( used to treat bacteria). The next day I received a call from the doctor saying he reviewed all the samples and that Giovanni and an infection likely due to eating sticks, I was instructed to continue with the medications and have a follow up with him in a week. Three days later the dog was practically back to normal, the swelling had decreased dramatically and was only present in the left lymph node. When I returned for the check up appointment this is what the vet had to say: A)The swelling in down dramatically. B) His fever is gone. C) He appears totally healthy. Then he noticed that a lymph node on the back of his left leg had mildly swollen, this started to worry me into thinking it was lymphoma. The doctor told me that it is very likely to be lymphoma and that I would need to start chemotherapy if it is. I was told that the Prednisone might be masking the cancer by reducing the swelling while the cells are still rapidly multiplying. The vet instructed me to stop giving him the Prednisone and once again prescribed Amoxi-Clav. It has now been over 5 days, I’m starting to get really worried about my best friend, the worse thing in life is watching the one thing you love and the one thing that loves you the most suffer right in front of your eyes. The lymph nodes under his neck are now swollen to the point where there prohibiting him to bark or breath properly. Every doctor he has seen has something different to say and something different to prescribe, I just want an answer as to what is wrong with him. A biopsy will be done on Giovanni hopefully within the next few days to finally determine the truth.

The reason why created this post is to gain some insight and hear advice from anyone who has experienced this before, my vet is away on vacation for another 2 days until then I have to watch my dog suffer with no explanation has to what he has.

If anyone has experienced this same matter could you please let know what to expect for the future… Keep in mind I already know that without a biopsy there is no certainty has to what my dog has.

Thanks in advance!!!

Besides regular dog food what else can I feed by 4 month old dogs so they grow strong and healthy?

I have a male pit bull and female labrador. They are both 4 months old. I want to feed them human food that will make them strong and healthy.

I have fed them chicken soup and dry corn flake cereal already.

I have and will always stay away from the basics such as sea food, sugar and cow milk.

What do you recommend I feed them? Thanks for you help!

My Brittany Spaniel has a eye infection, white stuff is covering part of the eye and around the inside looks somewhat swollen and red. I’ve been cleaning it out with my contact lense soultion and Q-Tips, is this going to do any good for it? or should i take her to the vet? because i fear going to the vet for nothing because last time my hamster had an eye infection the vet just prescribed saline solution….. should i just keep doing what im doing for her eye by cleaning it out 2 times a day?

I took my kitten to the vet and she was put on clavomax. Now my dog is showing symptoms of a cold with sneezing, runny nose, ect… did the cat get him sick or is it just a coincedence?

is there a really a different between the kibble found @ the grocery store?

and the higher end kibble, that you can purchase at global pet foods and other pet speciality stores? everyone will tell you that there is no comparison of a kibble diet and raw meat diet – and that the raw food diet is HEAPS better. but what about the different types of kibble? if you’re feeding your dog orijen, evo, go! natural, acana, california natural, or wellness over kibbles n bits, purina, caesars, alpo, pedigree, IS THERE REALLY THAT BIG OF A DIFFERENCE? WILL YOUR DOG REALLY BE THAT MUCH HEALTHIER?

What is the significance of being vegetarian in spirituality? Does our body suits to eat non vegetarian food?

A fair look at the evidence shows that humans are optimized for eating exclusively plant foods, and not meat.

Human anatomy: We’re most similar to other herbivores, and drastically different from carnivores.

Longevity & health: The more meat we eat, the sicker we get. Meat is poison to us. It’s the primary reason we get heart disease, cancer, diabetes, osteoporosis, and every other major degenerative disease. If eating meat were natural, it wouldn’t destroy our health.

Physical performance: People have much better endurance when they don’t eat meat — whether they’re professional athletes or not.

There are three types of animals

Meat Eaters
Plant Eaters
Fruit Eaters

Meat eaters have sharp teeth (Canine teeth) to pierce tough hide and to spear and tear flesh
Plant and Fruit Eaters have Molars (flat, back teeth) for grinding their food.

Humans have more Molar teeth however also have 4 sharp teeth’s.
Hence god has given us the flexibility to have non vegetarian, however our body is designed to eat plants and fruits only.

Human characteristics are in every way like the fruit eaters, very similar to the grass- eater, and very unlike the meat eaters.

The human digestive system, tooth and jaw structure, and bodily functions are completely different from carnivorous animals.

As in the case of the anthropoid ape, the human digestive system is twelve times the length of the body; our skin has millions of tiny pores to evaporate water and cool the body by sweating; we drink water by suction like all other vegetarian animals; our tooth and jaw structure is vegetarian; and our saliva is alkaline and contains ptyalin for predigestion of grains. Human beings clearly are not carnivores by physiology — our anatomy and digestive system show that we must have evolved for millions of years living on fruits, nuts, grains, and vegetables.
Furthermore, it is obvious that our natural instincts are non-carnivorous. Most people have other people kill their meat for them and would be sickened if they had to do the killing themselves. Instead of eating raw meat as all flesh-eating animals do, humans boil, bake, or fry it and disguise it with all kinds of sauces and spices so that it bears no resemblance to its raw state. One scientist explains it this way: “A cat will salivate with hungry desire at the smell of a piece of raw flesh but not at all at the smell of fruit. If man could delight in pouncing upon a bird, tear its still-living limbs apart with his teeth, and suck the warm blood, one might conclude that nature provided him with meat-eating instinct. On the other hand, a bunch of luscious grapes makes his mouth water, and even in the absence of hunger he will eat fruit because it tastes so good.”
Scientists and naturalists, including the great Charles Darwin who gave the theory of evolution, agree that early humans were fruit and vegetable eaters and that throughout history our anatomy has not changed. The great Swedish scientist von Linné states: “Man’s structure, external and internal, compared with that of the other animals, shows that fruit and succulent vegetables constitute his natural food.”

It is human nature to want to feel that what we’re doing is right, proper, and logical. When we’re confronted with something that suggests that our current practices are not the best ones, it’s uncomfortable. We can either consider that our choices may not have been the best ones, which is extremely disturbing, or we can reject that premise without truly considering it, so that we don’t have to feel bad about our actions. That’s the more comfortable approach.
And we do this by searching our minds for any arguments we can for why the challenge must be wrong, to justify our current behavior.

Conclusion:
I am not saying you should not eat non vegetarian food; however it is recommended to consume less to have better health.

In spirituality, it is recommended to not to have non vegetarian food, as it disturbs your digestive system and in turn spoils your spiritual activities like prayers, meditation etc.
