Help ALL animals, not just dogs - or Lhasa Apso
Please help ALL the animals, not just dogs or Lhasa Apso.
HOW?
Just check out one of the links below...
One link may appeal to you more than another - [anything anti-EU appeals to me] - so the second one is my favourite!
The links direct you to a website where you can join the virtual march to help make animal testing history. I'm sure you'll agree it's a very worthy cause... and it won't cost you a penny... or a cent!

Lhasa Apso pet health
Sorry to keep banging on about chocolate at Christmas - but do make sure your small pet doesn't become seriously ill by eating it.
Dogs can be terrible thieves, and so crafty with it... ours always know what is about, and then wait for just a moment of time when your attention isn't on every scrap of food in the house - then pounce!
As well as keeping all chocolate away from them also note that dried fruit shouldn't be consumed by dogs, don't ask me why - and definitely don't ask our dogs who have a passion for stealing fruit cakes!
Spend £30 and get a FREE I Love Chocolate Hamper (worth £25)...Just enter code XE9G at the checkout

Lhasa Apso safety
Yummy! Half Price Christmas Chocolate selection
But PLEASE DO remember that chocolates meant for humans are poisonous to dogs.
A Lhasa Apso is a small dog, so a small amount of chocolate can be potentially deadly!
Most dogs are 'tea leaves' [thieves] when left to their own devices... and Christmas presents, whether left under the tree or some other accessible place - or even chocolate decorations on the tree can present an irresistible temptation.

Lhasa Apso Puppy Training School
Taking your Lhasa Apso puppy [or any other breed of pup for that matter] to puppy training school should be good for their socialization skills if nothing else!
Do NOT expect too much else - as your pup will be very young - or you will be disappointed on this score.
Quite often too much is expected from the pups themselves, and/or from the schools. Do ask any dog owning friends, and/or the vets which you have decided upon, to recommend a good puppy training school. Some can be very disappointing even though their owners and/or the people running the school have all the requisite training qualifications.
If you are new to dog or puppy ownership then it is best to read up on the subject BEFORE you bring your new friend home. Get the help of a good book or course [better still... get, and study, both!]... and don't forget to have an animal health guide as part of your 'pet library'!
[You'll find links to the best ones in our right-hand margin - plus we have within this blog many useful posts/articles on various health topics, and also posts about the books and courses we recommend and use ourselves.]

Lhasa Apso training and safety
There are so many potential hazards for our dogs these days...
Illness
Attacks by other dogs
Actual dog napping [that's theft in my book, and both evil and cruel to the animal and the owner... despicable behaviour]
Breed health problems
Traffic
Poisons
I am just going to touch on the last item on this list in this post... be careful to keep foods which are safe for humans, but not for dogs, shut firmly out of your pets reach... also be careful which household cleaners you use [and also store them in a safe place]... and check both indoor plants and garden plants to see if they are safe for your pets.
The following two websites both give helpful lists and advice on the plants front...

Amusing? Or deadly serious? You tell me!
I received the 'Budget Alternative' via an extremely circuitous route!
[UK readers will know that Mr Darling is the Chancellor of the Exchequer in the Labour Government and that he has recently delivered his Budget for this year.]
Readers from other countries will probably find this just as pertinent to the way their governments are managing their finances...
This has NOTHING to do with the Lhasa Apso, or other dog breeds, so I am just leaving it up for the month of June - read and enjoy - we all need something to laugh [or cry] at in the current world financial crisis!
The 'Budget Alternative' follows within quotes...
"Subject: Fw: Budget Alternative
Dear Mr. Darling,
Please find below my suggestion for fixing Britain's
economy. Instead of giving billions of pounds to banks
that will squander the money on lavish parties and unearned
bonuses, use the following plan. You can call it the
Patriotic Retirement Plan:
There are about 20 million people over 50 in the work
force.. Pay them £1 million apiece severance for early
retirement with the following stipulations:
1) They MUST retire. Twenty million job openings -
Unemployment fixed.
2) They MUST buy a new British CAR. Twenty million cars
ordered - Automotive Industry fixed.
3) They MUST either buy a house or pay off their mortgage -
Housing Crisis fixed.
4) They must send their kids to school / college / university - Crime rate fixed
5) Buy £50 of alcohol / tobacco a week - there's your
money back in duty / tax etc
It can't get any easier than that!
P.S. If more money is needed, have all members of
parliament pay back there falsely claimed expenses and
second home allowances
If you think this would work, please forward to everyone
you know."

Lhasa Apso ear cleaning
The easiest way to do anything - from checking your pets feet and claws to examining his or her ears is to first get your pet used to being handled all over! Make a fuss of them and handle their ears, look into them, examine their mouths so that later you will be able to clean their teeth, handle their feet and examine them... then give them a treat for being calm whilst these procedures are being done.
Examine their ears weekly, more often in summer when they may get grass seeds into them, and then this can start off an infection. [Once an infection has started it is probably best to take your Lhasa Apso to your veterinarian.]
Pet-Supermarket stocks vet approved ear washes, or you can go directly to your vet and ask for a recommendation for a product to clean your pets ears. Do be careful to use only approved cleaners, as some cleaners can set up allergic reactions in your pet and their ears can swell up at a frightening rate - then you will have to rush to your vet for treatment.
Remember when cleaning your pets ears that you should use a cotton wool swab with the cleaner on it - under no circumstances should you try to clean where you cannot see. You could very easily damage the ear canal, your pet might move at the wrong time and be hurt. Cotton buds should only be used, if you particularly want to use them, for around the ear flaps... but a cotton wool swab is far safer.
After you have cleaned your pets ears, remember they will want to shake their heads and remove any residue - this can prove messy! Once this has been completed you could also add a drop of Otodex to their ears to keep mites away.
You can read about the various vet approved cleaners and treatments at
Pet-Supermarket which brings you the medications for less - with savings of up to 70% off compared to Vet prices
