Large &
Giant Breed Puppy
This formula is designed for those puppies
that will reach 50 pounds or more as an
adult. Its triple meat protein source builds
good solid muscle, providing optimum calcium
and phosphorus. In addition, there are
slightly fewer calories so that puppies
dont gain too much weight before their
bodies are ready to support it.

THIS is why you do not walk your dogs on asphalt or concrete
in the summer. If you see someone walking their dogs on
asphalt or concrete, PLEASE educated them and get the pet to
cooler ground. Original post was from Pet Ambulance Victoria
This should be sent to all the veterinarians including the specialists!
DOG PARK ALERT
We have received two notices.
(1) Nails wrapped in cheese at dog parks in Chicago and
Massachusetts (see pic). (2) from some friends that in
Augusta Maine dog park, antifreeze is being found in doggie
water bowls. Please beware and be careful and PLEASE SHARE
and spread the word
Ever wonder where puppy mill dogs come from? Here's an
example. Many get cooked alive in the sun and freeze to
death in the winter. If you purchase your dog from a pet
store, I can guarantee your "AKC" certified dog came from a
place like this. This one is even better than the ones
I saw in Iowa and Missouri!
Do you recognize she is a Yorkie?
Please do not purchase your pet from a Pet shop, Backyard
breeder or Commercial Puppy Mill.

dog must complete what the breeder began..." Max v. Stephanitz; Father of

BLOAT
Click chart to view larger version |
This is a real
combination of symptoms that spells out EMERGENCY. These are the classic
symptoms of a condition referred to as "bloat" - a dog that is pacing,
restless and has unproductive attempts to vomit.
This is a common problem in large breed
deep-chested dogs but can also occur in smaller dogs.
Basically what happens is this - the
stomach twists causing the blood supply to the stomach to be compromised
then leads to tissue death. As tissues are damaged, toxins are released
and a sequence of events occurs that if left untreated, leads to death.
If you ever notice these symptoms in
your dog, call your local veterinarian or emergency clinic as soon as
possible.
This is a condition that is fairly
common and often occurs in the evening or nighttime hours. It is also a
very expensive condition to treat.

Dealing with Excessive Barking
The first step to stopping barking is to understand why it is
happening. Dogs bark for all kinds of reasons, including
anxiety, boredom and/or loneliness. Sometimes they bark just
because it feels good. Luckily, most dogs will respond to
one or other intervention to curtail their barking. Whether you
simply bring an outdoor dog inside or take the time to apply
behavior-modification techniques, you can cause a dog to be less
of a nuisance and to be more socially acceptable. |
Removing Skunk Odor
|
|
No need for the tomato juice. Use a mixture of 10 parts hydrogen
peroxide to 1 part baking soda. Add a dash of degreasing
dishwashing soap and pour into a spray bottle. Spray liberally
over dry coat and allow to air dry. Avoid eyes. Works on other
objects, too! |

Devoting 43 years to the German Shepherd Breed &
loving every minute of it |

Dyan Merkel of vom Haus Merkel has over
43 years breeding, exhibiting
and Importing experience. Breeding American German Shepherds under the
kennel name of Merkel's German Shepherds up until 1995
when she changed to the West German Imports
(Germany requires breeders to meet a higher standard than the U.S./AKC
breeders
This results in healthier, more structurally sound and
clear minded dogs)
hence
the new kennel name of vom Haus Merkel. Our
objectives are to further advance the interests of the breed; to protect &
promote the German Shepherd Dog through ethical and responsible breeding.
Dyan
has bred the highest scoring Champion at
the 98 and 99 German Shepherd National Specialty Show. She also has produced over
35 AKC/CKC/UKC Champions, (most with obedience/working degrees as well), including the
1982
United States Grand Victrix Merkel's Vendetta
OFA, ROM
(who was
also 2 times Select Champion, Futurity Victrix, Maturity Victrix, ROM). Her bloodlines
still stand strong behind 2 recent U.S. Grand Victors; one of which has the distinction of
becoming only the second dog in the history of German Shepherds in America to win this
title twice. Dyan added the Schutzhund discipline and bred the only full American
bloodline female in the history of U.S. German
Shepherds to become an AKC Champion with a Schutzhund title
Ch
Merkel's Opium CD, SchH1.
Other dual titled dogs include
Ch Merkel's Essence CDX, Ch
Merkel's Sangria UDT, Ch Merkel's Regatta
UDT, Ch Merkel's Ricochet CD, Am-Can Ch Merkel's Cut-Up
of Timmee UDT, TDX,
NA, NAJ, HIC, TT,
Can CD
just to name a few.

Dyan's breeding program has produced working dogs for the
blind as well as their breeding programs. working with
such
groups as The Seeing-Eye, Inc., International Guiding Eyes and
Leader Dogs for the Blind.
In 1976 she rescued 2 German Shepherds who were
scheduled to die in the City Shelter in Iowa City,
Iowa rehabilitated them then donated them to
International Guiding Eyes in California.
These 2 girls were trained at the school in
California and graduated tops in their class. |
Dyan has also worked with many other groups
including Search and Rescue, Therapy dogs and Handicap Assistant Dogs.
Dyan has written articles on the breed and her dogs are pictured in
many breed books today. Rescue Dogs/Cats are her passion;
she donates time, art work and money to support many rescue groups in
the Dallas and Santa Rosa areas.

Having judged matches on a regular basis, she
was nominated as a judge by the G.S.D.C. of America Inc., for the National
Futurity show in 1999. She believes there is no truer statement about the
breed as stated by the man who created the German Shepherd Breed...
"Remarkable in his unswerving loyalty to his master, irrepressible in his
high spirits, never idle, always in motion, good-natured but not a
flatterer, a constant pleasure to the eye..."Max von Stephanitz.
