President’s Message

“A

t the time of writing this we are on the cusp of June so nearly at the halfway mark of 2020. Whichever way you look at it, it has been an extraordinary year. I don’t think anyone last year could have predicted the challenges internationally, nationally, and here in Queensland and in our dog world that we have faced. I think we are so lucky to be the biggest island island in the world and to share our geographical isolation with New Zealand. I know the financial and isolation impacts have been difficult for many of our members but we should all take heart in the fact that we seem to be heading in the right direction.

Let’s continue to remember to stay in touch with friends and loved ones by email, text, phone calls and visits. It is also important that we do not become complacent and that we continue to comply with government guidelines.

On the dog event front it is great that we can look at a start-up of dog training sessions currently limited to 20 persons with social distancing etc but timetabled to increase soon. PLEASE NOTE: The number of people allowed is for the WHOLE PROPERTY! At Durack, until stage 3 kicks in hopefully on 10 July, there can only be a total of 20 people. There cannot be groups of 20 people dotted around the 52 acres. And this applies to all sports grounds with dog training events. I think there has been some misunderstanding on this point.

Further to the previous email provided to Clubs, the advice is now updated below in regards to COVID Safe App and includes Meetings indoors.

Dogs Queensland has been in contact with the Queensland Government regarding the roadmap to easing Queensland’s restrictions and what category our not-for-profit organisation fits into.

The following link details the roadmap to easing restrictions for sporting clubs and organisations provided by the State Government: www.covid19. qld.gov.au/government-actions/roadmap-toeasing-queenslands-restrictions

Sporting clubs and organisations In summary: Stage 1, 15 May 2020: 10 people permitted at any one time Stage 2, 1 June 2020: 20 people permitted at any one time Stage 3, 10 July 2020: 100 people permitted at any one time Dogs Queensland would like to invite Clubs to submit proposals to conduct outdoor Canine Training Activities under the current State guidelines. Proposals should include but not be limited to the following;

• • • •

Physical distancing Hand hygiene Respiratory hygiene Frequent environmental cleaning and disinfection • Participants Details (Name, Address, Phone Number, Email) being recorded and provided to Dogs Queensland after every session • Promote and encourage all participants, volunteers and workers to sign up to the COVID Safe App • Displaying of the attached roadmap • Written Agreement provided to Dogs Queensland to undertake all of the above conditions in line with current State guidelines Similarly, in line with the home confinement, movement and gathering direction – in non-residences you can not allow a gathering.

A gathering is defined as more than 20 persons in a single undivided indoor space at the same time. Following this direction Clubs are therefore

DOG WORLD June 2020

permitted to hold Meetings with a maximum of 20 people however, and as above, at all times public health rules are to be maintained. Once again, written agreement should be provided to Dogs Queensland to undertake all of the conditions listed above.

Dr Sara Pitts BVSc. (Hons I), Dr Courtney Fuller BVSc. and Marnie Scheiwe BAppsc at Rosewood Vet Service are now offering Canine Reproduction services including:

Clubs wishing to book a Room at the Dogs Queensland Sports Grounds, can book the Function Room (max 10 people) or Meeting Room 1 (max 5 people but with Teleconferencing Facilities).

Food can also be ordered from onsite caterers, Wagz CafĂŠ via pre order only.

Due to the changing nature of the COVID-19 situation, we recommend you regularly check the provided link for updates.

If you require more information, you can phone 13 HEALTH (13 43 25). This service is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week or visit the Queensland Government website (www.health.qld.gov.au).

I know that many of us have young dogs that we wish to socialise. There is nothing stopping the allowed number of members getting together and arranging a puppy training and socialisation session at Durack. It is a matter of contacting the office and booking a ring and time and arranging payment. We have experienced people willing to run such sessions in our ranks.

Our Durack grounds have been looking the best that I can remember. Trees have been trimmed, garden beds enhanced and our second bore recommissioned to great effect. The rings are looking great and will be in fabulous order when our dog events start up. A big thanks to Director Duncan McAllister and his team, Rob Harrison, Rion, Travis and all our grounds people for the great work. A particular thank you to Craig who has been working tirelessly on our Lure Coursing field.

Who would have thought that 2020 would turn out to be a good year for effecting these major works but it has been. A big thank you to our office staff who are working so well during this period.

Looking forward to a return to our wonderful dog events as the year progresses.

LABRADOR RETRIEVER

DOG WORLD June 2020

I AM THE LABRADOR RETRIEVER IN AUSTRALIA In the first 50 years the breed was in Australia from 1929 there were at least 150 imports of Labrador Retrievers and many thousands of descendants and representatives of the breed which has proven to be remarkably popular and versatile. The Labrador Retriever has been used as a Shooter’s dog, a Guide Dog for the Blind, a Drug Detection Dog, a Mine Detection Dog for Armed Services, and as a Companion and Pet, for Show, Field Trial, Retrieving Trial, Obedience Trials and Dog Sports and more recently as an Assistance Dog. The breed has shown itself capable of fulfilling any or all of these roles with remarkable success – a tribute to the foresight of the early breeders and importers, many from Queensland.

The fact that the Labrador Retriever is a plain, short coated, hardy, medium sized dog , with high intelligence, pleasant temperament, excellent scenting ability, great swimming and retrieving abilities as well as being easily maintained and usually a “good do-er” could account for its amazing rise in popularity. The Labrador Retriever is also a dog which can be kennelled with others with little fear of arguments. He is also very adaptable – being content to be either an inside or outside dog.

The Labrador Retriever comes in three colours – Black, Chocolate (sometimes called Liver) and Yellow. He is a well-mannered, sociable dog who enjoys good health and with a short harsh outer coat and dense weather resistant undercoat, has been able to easily adapt to a wide range of climatic and environmental conditions.

The docility of the Labrador Retriever has perhaps been over emphasised with the result that it has sometimes been expected to lie down quietly day and night – an impossibly boring existence.

This is an active intelligent dog formerly bred for retrieving work who when left to its own devices usually finds ways to amuse itself – not always to the liking or amusement of its owners.

The Labrador Retriever is a patient, long suffering, tolerant animal who can co-exist well within a family and with young children. Being ‘good with children’ was never meant to imply stupidity or

tolerance of indignities to which no animal should be subjected. It is wise to ponder the thought that it is not Labrador Retrievers that are privileged to live with us, but we who are privileged to live with them.

CONFORMATION SHOWS Labrador Retrievers would be one of the easiest dogs to show. Firstly, they are ‘wash and wear’ dogs and require little preparation and secondly because they are so willing to please and love to show off. The biggest problem is getting them to stand still!!

Baby puppies wriggle when being examined and if the judge speaks to them – it gets worse. Don’t ever make it a ‘chore’ for a baby puppy trotting along wagging its tail is the ideal. In fact, anything from that to a “death roll” is acceptable.

As your Labrador Retriever gets older it will learn its trade and show itself to the best. It is important to understand that the Labrador Retriever is not a showy, flashy fast-moving dog and there is no flowing coat. What you see is all there is – they are an open book. Don’t race around the ring with a Labrador Retriever. They are bred to be a hunting companion and as such, to work all day so a good steady trot is his best pace.

Whilst winning is great, good sportsmanship is even greater and the enjoyment of a day out with your canine companion and your friends far outweighs a ‘Blue Ribbon’. Enjoy the show ring and do not let it become an obsession.

BORN TO RETRIEVE The Labrador Retriever – the name itself leaves no doubt as to the life purpose of this dog. Whilst it makes a perfect family pet, it was born to retrieve.

Retrieving competitions (‘Retrieving Trials’) have been held around Australia for over 50 years and whilst they are open to all Gundog breeds, the Labrador excels in this field. In Queensland, three clubs currently run Retrieving Trials and Retrieving Ability Tests for Gundogs (RATG), from February to September.

Whilst the Labrador Retriever has a built-in instinct to retrieve, modern training methods can be employed to get the best results for competition.

Basic training can commence from 8 weeks of age.

Generally speaking, the higher-level training is best left until around six months of age after the puppy has their adult teeth and is ready for more rigorous training. Older dogs can certainly begin their retrieving training in the same way as you begin with a pup.

The most basic, and yet most important, training to start with is having a good ‘Recall’. Secondly teach the dog as early as possible to ‘Sit’ on the sound of a whistle. This can be achieved quite well by incorporating it into your lead/heeling training.

All Labrador Retriever owners know that their dogs love to carry things around, so start with

10

DOG WORLD June 2020

this natural instinct and encourage it. Every time you see your dog with something in its mouth, praise it and encourage it to deliver that item to you. If you are interested in pursuing Retrieving, scolding a dog for carrying something (even if it is something they maybe should not have) is going to be detrimental to the desired end result. Your dog should be excited and happy to deliver to you after a retrieve. Equally, never instruct the dog to ‘drop’ the item as in competition the items need to be delivered to hand.

SCENT WORK Canine Scent Work is a new ANKC sport which is a fun and mentally stimulating sport that tests a dog’s ability to use their powerful and natural sense of smell to locate a specific ‘target’ odour against the backdrop of many other odours and distractions. A very small amount of the target odours (an essential oil) is placed on a cotton swab, the dog is rewarded for sniffing out and positively identifying the location of the target.

This is a great sport for dogs of all shapes, sizes and ages. Along with building confidence, it also burns mental and physical energy and is LOTS of FUN. In competition target odours may be hidden in boxes, bags, in enclosed rooms, around vehicles or around the outside of buildings. Real world scenarios are used and each trial will be different.

Labrador Retrievers have been used for over 30 years for jobs involving the scenting ability of the breed – Drug Detection, Organo-chlorine Detection (clearing old disused sheep and cattle dips), Border Security, Search and Rescue etc – isn’t this the dog of choice for this sport?

a well trained dog and by taking him/her to Obedience classes this will be achieved. There are many Obedience Clubs in Australia that will help you achieve your goals whether it is to have a loyal obedient companion and/or to compete in Obedience Competitions.

TRACKING

There five levels of competition in Obedience: CCD – Community Companion dog, CD – Companion Dog, CDX – Companion Dog Excellent, UD – Utility Dog and UDX – Utility Dog Excellent.

Tracking is a fun sport for Labrador Retrievers as they love to track using their nose to follow a particular scent – it comes naturally to most dogs.

Training involves fine tuning the natural tracking instinct that comes very naturally to Labrador Retrievers.

When tracking the dog wears a harness and is on a 10 metre lead following a track laid sometime earlier. The track layer will have left an article at the start peg for the dog to gain scent. Training involves short tracks to begin with and gradually increasing the distance: don’t leave the track too long in the initial stages – these are called ‘Hot Tracks’.

Tracking is done in open paddocks and Track and Search in parks and suburbs. Titles are awarded for both aspects. If Tracking appeals to you please contact one of the Tracking Clubs or LRCQ Inc.

OBEDIENCE There is nothing more rewarding than having

To start your dog off, firstly you must teach him to walk beside your left leg in the heel position.

When he is doing this teach him to sit as you stop by slowly pushing on his chest with your right hand and tell him to sit followed by praise when he does it.

To teach your dog to stand as you are stopping give him a command and hand signal to stand as you run your hand softly along his side and stopping at the flank. This will keep him standing and keep repeating the command ‘stand and praise’ as well.

The ‘down’ position is one of the hardest positions to teach a dog but can be done with patience and reward. To teach this position have a treat in your hand and as you tell the dog to ‘drop’ or ‘down’ (choose a command and stick to it) put the food in front and towards the front of the dog. Give the

A course in rally is a set of exercises done in sequence from start to finish and the size of the course can vary as to the number of exercises in each course. There are 30 stations or exercises to be performed in Novice with any one Novice course having between 10 – 15 stations (start and finish not included). The number of stations in each class will depend on the level of the class.

command to ‘down’ and then reward once the dog is in the ‘down’ position.

To teach the dog to ‘come’ leave him in a sit position, command ‘stay’ and then walk a few steps out in front and turn facing the dog. Give a hand signal and command to ‘come’ while running backwards a metre or so before stopping and asking the dog to sit in front of you.

These are only suggestions and everyone that trains a dog has their own ideas how to teach these exercises.

Go to an Obedience Club, get an Obedience Rule book and read it. There are some exceptionally good books on training your dog which you can also read.

RALLY OBEDIENCE To train your dog for Rally Obedience start with training basic obedience and then build on the exercises. It would also be advantageous to get a copy of the Rally Obedience rule book so you know what is required in each level of Rally training.

There is Novice, Advanced, Excellent and Masters.

Starting with novice work your way up to masters and continue to Rally Obedience Champion.

Rally Obedience is a very rewarding sport and not as regimented as formal Obedience whereby the only time you can talk to your dog is to give a command or after the exercise finish is given by the judge. You can then praise and pat your dog whereas in rally you may pat and talk to your dog during the running of the course.

DOG WORLD June 2020

Some Obedience Clubs hold Rally Obedience training classes and it is a good idea to attend some of these classes as it will be beneficial to you and your dog. Most of all, whether you do Obedience or Rally Obedience – or both – with your dog, it is important to remember to enjoy the experience and time spent with your best friend – your dog.

THE LABRADOR RETRIEVER CLUB OF QUEENSLAND INC The Labrador Retriever Club of Queensland was formed in 1964 by a small band dedicated to the Labrador Retriever and was initially chaired by the late Mrs Norah Gilbert of ‘Jaywick’ Kennels who brought Australian Champion Clacton Gay Lady from the UK in 1954 and many other imports over the years.

The LRCQ Inc.is dedicated to the betterment of the breed and encourages members to take part in all aspects of our sport striving for excellence in their chosen fields. The LRCQ Inc. runs conformations shows, Retrieving Ability Tests for Gundogs, Retrieving Trials and soon to be introduced Scent Work. The club’s membership is open to anyone interested in this wonderful breed and is supported by an informative website and Facebook page.

Dog is ‘God’ spelt backwards!

DOG TALES Max

– THE

SIBERIAN HUSKY

Shaune Martin left her Augustine Heights home outside of Ipswich for a walk, by her side was her beloved Siberian Husky, Max. Not more than 200 metres later Shaune was struck by a car and thrown to the side of the road, she had terrible injuries.

Max sprinted back home and Shaune’s fiancée, David Symes, knew something was wrong, not only was Max distressed but he had blood on his feet and legs.

David tried Shaune’s mobile but there was no answer.

David grabbed Max’s lead and with him leading the way, all the while checking that David was following, led him to the prone figure of his love.

“He pulled me along the entire way to where I found her laying unconscious. I managed to wave down a police car on the other side of the road and they immediately called the paramedics.

“If Max hadn’t led me to her, she wouldn’t have been found as she couldn’t be seen from the road.”

Fifteen minutes later a specialist trauma team including a doctor arrived.

MAX – THE SIBERIAN HUSKY

The impact left Ms Martin with serious head and facial injuries, along with severe fractures to her arm, neck, pelvis and hip.

Ms Martin underwent an 11-hour facial surgery, spent the next 27 days in a coma before another 44 days in the brain injury rehabilitation unit of the Princess Alexandra Hospital.

But she simply would not be alive if it wasn’t for Max’s devotion, if even just another ten to fifteen minutes had passed before Shaune was found she would not have made it.

When Shaune was in the brain rehabilitation unit David brought Max into see her. In her absence Max had been withdrawn and anxious, now he ran to her and the tears flowed.

Max is much more content now that Shaune is home, but he is very wary of motor vehicles and refuses to go near the accident scene.

Shaune is home with a daily regimen of a strict long-term rehabilitation program and is making “wonderful progress and is in great spirits”.

For his efforts Max was awarded the Queensland RSPCA’s Animal Hero Award – and a large bone.

How can you not love them?

Max, also known as Ukeevea Invincible Max, was bred by one of our Dogs Queensland members Kylie Williams of Ukeevea Siberians.

MAX, SHAUNA, DAVID AND THE POLICE OFFICERS WHO WERE FIRST ON THE SCENE

SEPARATION ANXIETY – Craig A Murray Whilst it is a very desirable feeling for some of us to know that our dogs can’t live without us, it’s not a healthy state of mind for our dogs to be so dependent upon us that they go into stress the moment we walk out of sight.

When we look at how we raise our children, we teach them to be their independent best but we teach our dogs to be so very dependent on us and in some ways, that fulfils our emotional needs.

There’s no denying how much most pet owners love their dogs, but when you look at things in a common sense and practical way, to have an animal under enormous stress when you leave it should be considered a form of abuse.

It’s true that not all dogs are the same and so there are some individuals that are needier than others.

We also must take into consideration the amount of time we spend with our dogs. We want to ensure our dogs have great environmental enrichment and quality of life, but we also want to ensure that they can cope on their own and are comfortable in their own skin.

14

DOG WORLD June 2020

Due to the number of dogs we own and the amount of times we must travel for work, we need to drop our dogs to boarding kennels at times. It’s great to see that when we leave our dogs, they are happy to go with whoever is holding the lead to take them to their accommodation. There is always that little twinge when we have to leave our dogs as we would much prefer to have them with us and in our care, but it’s nice to know they are well adjusted and settled dogs that won’t suffer too much due to our change of circumstance. Naturally a change of environment is always going to have some element of stress but we want to keep it to a minimum. It shows we are trying to do best practice for our dog’s emotional needs.

We see the oncoming of separation anxiety well before it happens in a lot of our client’s dogs. They will mention the dog starting to display anxious tendencies when they are preparing to leave for work or to go out without the dog. If we can identify an upcoming problem at this stage, the owner’s behaviour can be easily adjusted to make the dog more comfortable with knowing the owner is leaving. It’s always best to give your dog time

away from you when you are home for different periods of time to monitor their level of anxiety.

Best to do things slowly and in small increments of time at first. You can make this process easier by placing an old towel or item of your clothing with your odour on it into the area with you dog.

Once this practice has been replicated a few times you will notice the dog is not so anxious about its separation from you and in fact not triggering to things in the environment that could have previously caused an element of stress (as they had become part of the leaving ritual).

Once you know the dog is comfortable away from you when you are home, start small amounts of time out of the house and away from the dog. Don’t make a big deal of leaving by significantly having a ritual with the dog before walking out the door – just gather your belongings and leave, showing the dog it’s no big deal. By you showing confidence and relaxation with this process, it will transfer across to your dog. All too often the owner’s guilt at having to leave the dog will make the transition to leaving even more difficult for both parties.

If you have a dog with a well-established, long term separation anxiety issue, give the dog very short amounts of time away from you at the start until you can increase the amount of time and know the dog can handle the separation. If this small start to change the dog’s behaviour increases the stress for the dog to the point that it may injure itself or do damage to the environment, then that would be an indicator that you really do need veterinary intervention with a closely monitored drug program put into place.

This would allow the dog to then undergo training with a clear and more stable mind to be able to handle the changes to its situation, the relationship with the owner and of course changes in the environment. Always be directed by your veterinarian as to which drug is best for your individual situation, and of course ask the relevant questions as to how long the dog will need to be on the medication and the dosage rates.

Also, it is best to work with a trainer that has experience dealing with more in-depth behaviour issues to ensure the dog’s welfare is a priority.

First Aid:

Choking Joanne Bibby – Fursafe®

Definition A dog unable to breathe due to an airway blockage or obstruction.

Cause

Why? Because they use their mouths to learn, investigate, play with and decide if the tempting item tastes good.

Hazards to be aware of, but not limited to:

A foreign object gets stuck in a dog’s throat or has an object wrapped around the neck of a dog.

• Dog treats which can break into large pieces

Safety precautions

• Feeding small dog’s large pieces of food

As dog owners, we must learn what hazards exist, and then isolate the dog from those hazards.

This can be achieved by not leaving the hazard around, don’t allow our dogs to continue chewing something hazardous and teaching them to ‘leave it’ or ‘drop it’.

Choking Hazards

• Dogs eating too fast on large pieces of food • Plastic, rubber, fabric • Bones which can break and splinter or where the ball joint breaks off a lamb leg etc • Tennis balls which can compress in the dog’s mouth and become stuck • Small tennis balls designed for small dogs becoming lodged in a larger dog’s throat

A woman, while out on a walk ages ago, asked me if my Silky chewed tea towels, bedding and shoes like her Silky did. I responded smugly that ‘Oh no, my Silky doesn’t do anything like that!!’ Then out of the blue Izzy began chewing plastic! From cellophane to plastic bags to ice cream containers and storage containers – all things which could have ended in disaster. That smug look on my face was wiped off, that’s for sure!

• Children’s toys which have small parts

The fact is that all dogs are at risk of choking.

• Dog appears agitated or distressed, pacing

16

DOG WORLD June 2020

• Batteries • Clothing like socks, underwear, bikinis • The squeaky thing in the squeaky toy • Long leash, fishing wire or rope wrapped around dog’s neck

Signs and Symptoms

back and forth

d. Check circulation – start CPR if no pulse.

• Pawing at the mouth

e. Get to Vet.

• Has difficulty breathing or begins gasping for breath

Do not pull on hooks (e.g. fish hooks) or pull on the tiny neck bones located in the back of a dog’s throat.

• Legs splayed with head down as though dog is trying to draw breath • Gums, lips, tongue turns blue or grey • Neck stretched out, if sitting • Drooling uncontrollably • Collapse • Experiences respiratory failure • Cardiac arrest

Action 1. Undertake Primary Assessment DRSABC a.

Check for dangers – a danger may be that the dog has become aggressive (warning: never put a muzzle on a dog who has breathing difficulties).

3. If you cannot reach the object or see it, administer the Heimlich Manoeuvre. a. Small Dog: Lift dog upside down with hips/back legs.

Put dog’s back against your stomach, head facing down, place your hands or closed fist on the dog’s belly just under the rib cage and push in the direction of your stomach sharply, 5 times to expel object. b. Large Dog: Bend over behind dog and lift dog’s hips/ back legs. Wrap your arms around dog’s belly close to hips (push air out of lungs); thrust your arms/hands up and toward their lower rib cage, sharply 5 times to expel object.

b. Is your dog responding to your voice or your c. touch? If not, your dog may be unconscious.

c. Send for help – if there is someone else in

the house get them to do things like get the

first aid kit, help carry dog into house,

prepare the car and call the Vet. They may

also be able to help you restrain your dog. d. d. Check the airway for vomit in the mouth, or foreign object and remove if there is.

2. Removing foreign object a. Open dog’s mouth, pull tongue forward. b. If the object is visible, use your forceps or tweezers to remove the object. If it breaks into pieces, remove all if possible.

You can try to remove an object using a finger sweep (move finger from one side of mouth to the other). Be careful not to push object deeper into throat.

DOG Agility Possibly the best way to give an overview of the sport of Agility is to copy the Introduction from the ANKC Agility Rules: 1.1 Agility is a dog competition open to all dogs.

The aim of this competition is for a Handler to direct his dog around a course of different obstacles to assess and enhance the ability of the dog and Handler to work as a team. It is an educational and sporting activity intended to improve the dog’s integration into society. The sport requires a good rapport between dog and Handler, which results in perfect teamwork. Whilst speed of the dog is to be desired, steadiness of work is essential to a faultless performance of the course.

1.2 The overall objectives of Agility Trials are: a. To encourage a graded progression through the sport. b. To encourage new participants and new ideas and the continuance of Agility as a unique canine discipline. c. To encourage an increased level of fitness for dog and Handler. d. To encourage safe and pleasant competition for all.

18

DOG WORLD June 2020

The Sport encompasses the classes Agility, Jumping and Games and it is one of, if not the, fastest growing dog sport in the world. It is open to all dogs whether they be registered and pedigreed, rescues or the dog you already have in your back yard. Big dogs, small dogs, medium sized dogs, all breeds from the largest Great Danes to the smallest Chihuahuas, you can see them competing somewhere all over Australia on any given weekend.

Competitors themselves vary in age from juniors to people in their 70’s and 80’s and there are some disabled who compete in wheelchairs. It is definitely a sport for everyone.

It is very exciting for both the dog and handler and it is a great spectator sport too. To see a dog on course is to watch something magical happen between the dog and handler as the dog reads the signals given by the handler’s body, as it is guided around the course. Some signals are so slight that a mere twitch of the handler’s shoulder or placement of a foot can determine which obstacle the dog attempts next and can be the difference between a clear round and fault.

As mentioned before, this is a world-wide sport and the top Australian handlers compete overseas in the various World Agility Games. These

competitors compete with borrowed dogs, so they have to be overseas sometimes weeks before the competitions to become familiar with their dogs.

It is a great testament to their abilities that they regularly come away with top awards.

Agility is all consuming to those of us involved in the sport. Yes, there are many, many hours of training of both dog and handler before the team is ready to compete at a trial, but the rapport and ultimate trust that is developed during this time between the dog and handler is very special.

Training continues throughout the years to keep the team fit and healthy for each competition.

Image: Steve Uebel

Agility is the ultimate way in which to enjoy our very special four-legged friends. Whatever the outcome, the look of pure enjoyment on the dog’s face will assure you of just how much fun they are having.

If you think that Agility might be the sport for you, contact your local Dog Agility or Obedience Club and speak with them. If it is easier, telephone Dogs Queensland on 3252 2661 or email info@ dogsqueensland.org.au and they will point you in the right direction. They can let you know when there will be an Agility Trial near you so you can check it out. Also, visit Facebook.

Tips for

Puppy Socialisation

During COVID-19 Restrictions – Dr Fiona Patterson BVSc MARS Pet Care Australia If you’ve welcomed a new puppy into your family, positive socialisation practices are critical in the development of your dog’s future character.

That’s because the experiences encountered during puppyhood, negative or positive, can have profound effects on the behaviour of a dog later in life.

Positive socialisation practices are critical for your puppy Dogs that are under socialised may become shy, fearful and sometimes even aggressive. They may not develop the appropriate canine body language necessary to interact well with other dogs or know how to behave appropriately around people.

In contrast, puppies that have been well socialised generally grow into happy, confident dogs.

The socialisation period Puppies go through various developmental stages on their way to adulthood. The ‘socialisation period’ lasts from around 3 to 12 weeks of age, and during this time, puppies are more sensitive to socialisation.

While the socialisation period is a critical developmental stage for your puppy, socialisation should also continue throughout your dog’s life.

Positive socialisation Socialising your puppy involves introducing them to a whole range of new experiences including meeting different types of people, dogs, other animals, places, smells and noises. It’s important that these interactions are a positive experience for your puppy. Introduce them to new situations

20

DOG WORLD June 2020

gently and reward them for calm behaviour.

But what about restrictions associated with COVID-19?

During this unprecedented time, it’s important that you stay home, keep safe and follow national and state guidelines. But you have a new puppy, so how do you socialise them at this crucial time in their development? Here are some tips, but remember not to overload your puppy as short, positive sessions are the best.

Basic training You can’t enrol in a local Puppy Pre-School class at the moment, so try some of these basic training techniques: • Teach your puppy to walk on a leash. Try different areas inside the house and out in the yard.

• Teach ‘sit’ and ‘stay’ commands.

• Teach ‘drop’ – try it on different surfaces and in different areas in the house and yard.

• Crate train your puppy which is a great way of getting them used to spending time alone. Put them in their crate and give a treat when they are quiet and calm. Try short periods of time in the crate, gradually extending the time.

• Provided your puppy has completed their puppy vaccinations, take them for a walk around the neighbourhood (social distancing of course).

• Teach your puppy to ride in the car. You don’t even need to drive the car, just turn on the engine.

• Practice handling your puppy in a different area of their body each day, for example:

* feel between their toes * open their mouth and check their teeth * look inside their ears * rub their tummy * bath and blow dry (cool setting) your puppy * trim your puppy’s nails

Strange noises There are a range of different noises that you can expose your puppy to around the home. Some examples include:

strange noises (e.g. thunderstorms, fireworks etc).

As with all socialisation practice – move at a pace your puppy can easily handle and reward them for displaying calm behaviour.

Strange people With limits on the number of visitors to your home, it can be difficult to expose your puppy to a wide range of people. When you walk around the neighbourhood, reward your puppy each time they calmly encounter a strange person or another dog.

• Leaf blower

You can also get creative! Dress up in different clothes and walk around the house, put on a bike helmet or a hat. You can even wear a garbage bag!

My fearless Staffy isn’t really scared of anything – but he does a double take at a plastic bag blowing in the wind, so we’re still working on being calm in that situation!

• Power tools

Strange items

• Garbage bins

Place an item your puppy hasn’t seen before in a new place. For example, put a pot plant in a new

• Vaccum cleaner • Hair dryer • TV/Video • Lawn mower

There are also great videos available on-line with

DOG WORLD June 2020

21

spot or a suitcase in the hallway. Consider opening and closing an umbrella as these can seem quite peculiar objects to some puppies!

Strange surfaces It’s important that your puppy gets used to different surfaces beneath their feet. Expose them to surfaces such as: • Grass • Cement • Tiles • Artificial grass • Lino • Carpet • Cardboard • Rocks • Cushions • Plastic • Pavers Positive socialisation practices will help your puppy grow into a happy and confident dog. Keep your training sessions short and fun and remember

to only reward your puppy for showing the desired behaviour. That way you don’t inadvertently reward them for undesirable behaviour.

Enjoy this amazing time, as like all babies, they just grow up too quickly!

KEEPING YOUR DOG WARM IN WINTER

As winter approaches and there’s a bit of a nip in the air, it’s a good time to think about how best to prepare our canine friends for the cold weather.

Dr Sara Pitts Rosewood Veterinary Service The normal range of temperatures that animals are able to maintain their body temperature without using energy is called the thermoneutral zone. In dogs, it ranges from 20-30°C. Outside of this range, dogs need to use energy to warm up or cool down.

Short coated and small breeds of dogs (such as Chihuahuas and English Toy Terriers) are more susceptible to low temperatures compared to long, thick coated and large breeds of dogs (such as Alaskan Malamutes and German Shepherd Dogs).

However, while your dog may have a long coat, their ears, noses and feet are still exposed to the cold. It is important to provide a warm coat to dogs that are small or have a short coat, particularly

24

DOG WORLD June 2020

when they are outside or are on a walk in cold temperatures. Also make sure that they are still able to move freely, that the coat or jumper isn’t causing them pain or discomfort if it doesn’t fit correctly and that they are not overheating if the coat is left on when they go inside or are performing vigorous activity.

While warm, soft cozy bedding seems like an obvious thing to provide to your pet, it’s important to ensure that their bedding is adequate for them in winter. Older and larger dogs especially need the correct thickness of bedding (approximately 15-20cm) so that it doesn’t collapse under their weight and cause them discomfort. Their bed should be in a draft free area and ideally be raised off the ground (but not so high that they have difficulty getting in or

APRIL 2020

out of the bed, particularly if they are arthritic).

FEBRUARY 2020

HEADING HEADING Text p8

Heating mats and discs can be used to warm the bed, but care must be taken that they aren’t going to be chewed or eaten, or be so hot as to burn them. Heaters and fireplaces must be used with caution as dogs can burn themselves on them, or accidentally start a house fire.

Senior dogs are also more susceptible to the cold, as well as being more likely to have arthritis. It is important to monitor our older pets comfort levels in the colder months. If you notice that they are quite stiff and sore in the morning or that they are having difficulty moving around, you can contact your local veterinary clinic to get advice on the best way to help them.

There are many nutritional supplements that can be used, such as 4cyte, Paws Osteosupport, Hill’s Joint Care and Royal Canin Mobility C2P+.

These diets and supplements generally work to support cartilage in the joints. If the pain from the arthritis is more severe, arthritis injections (generally containing glucosamine or pentosan for cartilage support) or anti-inflammatories and pain relief medications may be prescribed. It is best to discuss these options with your veterinarian first as there can be side effects associated with different treatments.
