Your Dog’s Second Brain: The Gut The enteric nervous system’s network of nerves, neurons, and neurotransmitters extends along the entire digestive tract – from the esophagus, through the stomach and intestines, and down to the anus. Because the enteric nervous system relies on the same type of neurons and neurotransmitters that are found in the central nervous system, some people call it our “second brain.” It is estimated there are equal numbers of bacteria in our GI tract as cells in the human body. These microorganisms have evolved with humans and animals over the centuries.

Dysbiosis (or alterations in the GI bacterial flora) is strongly associated with several mood disorders and other chronic inflammatory diseases in people. Although serotonin is well known as a brain neurotransmitter (promotes a positive feeling), it is estimated that 90 percent of the body’s serotonin is actually made in the digestive tract. Therefore, it would seem prudent to foster a healthy microbiome as growing evi-

dence reveals the link between intestinal dysbiosis and several chronic diseases including those of the brain. As technology advances it has become easier to sequence the gut microbiome and the differences between healthy individuals and those with chronic diseases are becoming more obvious. Microorganisms in the gut also help regulate the body’s immune response. In an ideal circumstance the host’s immune system has symbiotic relationship with the microbes to form an alliance against outside pathogens.

If this relationship is disturbed pathogens are more likely to infect the host through the GI tract. While what measures need to be taken to obtain the healthiest microbiome are still up for much debate the importance of it pertaining to neurologic and chronic illnesses is clearer than ever.

EMANCIPET

Low Cost. Big Heart.

For almost 20 years, Emancipet, a non-profit founded in central Texas, has served more than a half a million pets. A growing organization, Emancipet is building a national low cost veterinary care system, and in February of 2017, Northeast Philadelphia became home to an Emancipet low-cost pet clinic. This clinic is the newest in Emancipet’s system, and its first location outside Texas, where it operates in four cities.

NEW! Full service state-of-the-art veterinary hospital for dogs, cats, birds, small mammals and reptiles.

Open House: Details Coming 966 N. 2nd Street, Philadelphia PA

At Emancipet, a team of licensed, trained veterinarians and veterinary professionals offer spay/ neuter surgeries, vaccinations, microchips, monthly flea and heartworm prevention, puppy and kitten de-worming, and treatment for common conditions, such as skin and ear infections.

While surgeries require appointments, all other services are available on a walk-in basis.

In it’s first year, Emancipet’s Philadelphia branch performed over 1,600 spay and neuter surgeries and more than 2,500 walk-in visits.

Because Emancipet believes that veterinary care should be affordable and accessible to all pet owners, the organization advocates for public policy that improves the lives of pets in underserved communities.

Through grassroots efforts, including door-todoor outreach, establishing relationships, and a caring presence in the community, Emancipet is fast becoming a trusted resource for pet owners in Philadelphia’s northeast neighborhood.

Life is short; let the Caddy handle the dirty work!

The POOP Caddy™ story began in early 2013, when I was unexpectedly laid-off from my fulltime job. This life change allowed me plenty of free time to do what I love…to walk our (3) dogs – Harley, Sammy, and Bob. What I quickly discovered is that Sammy enjoyed the walks even more than the other dogs.

Not only would he stop at almost every house to smell all the new scents and mark every tree, but he also enjoyed “doo-ing his business” shortly into our walk. Therefore, I would have to carry his ‘full poop bag’ with us for the remainder of our walk, which was usually another 30-45 minutes…UGH!

CUBBY’S CASTLE

Daycare Grooming Training Boarding “Psst, this place is so awesome, why aren’t you here yet?” — Wilson

The inconvenience of carrying a “full bag”, not to mention the SMELL of the dog waste, was enough for me to start thinking of ways to solve this problem. Several drawings and mock-ups later, *Voila!* The POOP Caddy™ was created.

Now, my walks with Sammy and all of our dogs, is just as enjoyable for me as it is for the dogs.

Dog Training: How to make it fun!

When speaking with dog owners about training, one common reason I hear for why owners aren’t training their dogs is that it’s no fun. If I wasn’t having fun while I was training my dog, I wouldn’t spend as much time training as I do either!

Here are some tips to make training fun for both human AND canine. Many times if people only do a basic obedience class they get stuck in the rut of practicing the few behaviors they learned like sit, down and stay. The things you can teach your dog are limitless: spin in a circle, sit up and beg, crawl, hug, bow, shake, weave through your legs, etc. It’s just a matter of getting ideas.

The AKC has a new trick dog title that can be a great source. Even if you don’t want to take the test, going through the list can give you some fun ideas. The list of tricks is available here: www.akc.org/trick-Dog/trick-dog-applications.

Another source is Kyra Sundance’s book 101 Dog Tricks.

Another way to keep training fun is to combine play time and training. Playing tug with your dog can be a great reward for a job well done in training. Playing fetch? Instead of just tossing the ball, have your dog do some work between tosses. Incorporating play will make the training sessions more fun for both you and your dog.

These few easy changes can really up the fun factor.

Finding the perfect pet-friendly rental may not always be easy, but with nearly half of all rent- HERITAGE CRYSTAL SPRINGS ers owning a dog or cat, pet owners are starting Countryside Apartment Living 200 N Church St, Parkesburg PA to find more and more welcome mats.

Plan Ahead: Moving-related issues are among the most common reasons pet owners are forced to give up their pets. In a recent American Humane Association survey, “moving” was the most common reason and “my landlord won’t allow pets” was the fourth most-common reason by pet owners for relinquishing their pets.

Pet owners are understandably heartbroken at the thought of giving up a family member, but it doesn’t have to be that way. With just a little planning, you can find the perfect pet-friendly place!

Know the Policy: Most landlords provide their pet policies up front but if an apartment’s pet friendliness is not immediately clear, it’s best to ask right away. Pet policies can vary from one rental community to another. Be sure to contact the rental office directly to get a clear understanding of their pet policy before signing the lease.

Our favorite “hello” and hardest “goodbye” For many of us, a pet is not “just a dog” or “just a cat,” but rather a beloved member of our family, bringing companionship, fun, and joy to our lives. A pet can add structure to your day, keep you active and social, help you to overcome setbacks and challenges in life, and even provide a sense of meaning or purpose. A pet doesn’t judge you, just loves unconditionally. This is why, when a beloved pet dies, it’s normal to feel a painful sense of grief and loss.

Often, the best way to deal with the grief is to celebrate what your cat or dog meant to you.

If you take time to prepare for this painful process, it can provide you with an even greater reason to enjoy each day you have left with them.

By capturing photos of your time together, you are collecting memories that allow your pets to live on in you. Embracing these memories, both happy and sad, can provide comfort in knowing the time spent together was significant.

“Our 11 year old pit bull Sunny was suddenly diagnosed with a terminal illness and we were told we wouldn’t have much longer. When I called Willow Street Pictures and reviewed our urgency to have memorable photos taken, they were more than happy to accommodate...

Willow Street Pictures was nothing short of amazing, both in their compassion for our situation, and their professionalism. They are truly gifted artists that captured the very essence of Sunny.”

Secret Language of Dogs Have you ever wished your dog could talk could talk to you? Well, he does; just not with words.

Research shows that dogs have their own way of communicating with their owners, as well as with other dogs.

Paw slap: This is like a human coming up and slapping you on the back. This gesture puts the dog at an awkward angle, so it’s also a sign that the dog trusts the dog it is playing with.

Rearing hind legs: When dogs rear up on their hind legs, it’s a sign of affection. It often looks Face: Dogs will wrinkle or straighten their fore- like dancing when dogs do this together when they’re playing. heads to show confusion or determination.

Lips, teeth and tongue: If your dog is happy or wants to play, he may pull his lips back and show his teeth in what appears to be a smile.

This is a gesture that is reserved only for human/dog communication; a dog will not do this with other dogs.

Barking Dogs Just like their human owners, dogs like to talk.

However, unlike body signals, barking can represent different things to different dogs. The pitch or volume of the bark will increase with the dog’s level of emotion.

And it could be that artificial intelligence is better at distinguishing dog barks than humans Ears: If a dog’s ears are raised, he is relaxed or are.

Introducing the Philadelphia No-Kill Coalition The Philadelphia No-Kill Coalition is a collective of animal welfare agencies working together to end the killing of savable pets in shelters.

We will achieve our goal by helping struggling owners keep their pets and increasing rescue, adoption, and foster placements for pets with nowhere else to go.

The mission of the Philadelphia No-Kill Coalition is to use collaborative public and private partnerships to end the killing of healthy and treatable cats and dogs in the City of Philadelphia and to promote humane alternatives for community cats, ultimately attaining 100% safe placement of healthy and treatable pets.

on record, is now poised to become one of the largest no-kill communities in the U.S. The city’s three leading animal welfare agencies – ACCT Philly, the Pennsylvania SPCA, and PAWS – formed the Philadelphia No-Kill Coalition. We then invited fellow rescues, shelters and animal service providers to join us.

Today, the Coalition consists of 18 member organizations committed to work together to achieve our shared goal.

With support from Mayor Jim Kenney, we announced the establishment of the Philadelphia No-Kill Coalition on January 10, 2018.

Together, we will make Philadelphia a no-kill city where no savable pets die in shelters.
