That can only mean one thing: summer is almost upon us.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you would like to join the exodus without traveling far, escape the heat by camping on Mount Lemmon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Start your Mount Lemmon journey on the Catalina Highway in the foothills of the Catalina Mountains just north of Tucson. The scenic drive passes many varied and beautiful campsites located within the Coronado National Forest.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Temperatures drop as you climb the 9,000-foot mountain, and the terrain changes from desert to pine forest. The elevation levels provide many choices for camping experiences, and Mount Lemmon has more than 1,100 miles of trails to explore.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wherever your Mount Lemmon adventure leaves you, the campsites provide space for cars, tents and recreational vehicles. All of the campgrounds have restrooms.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Coronado National Forest is bear and mountain lion territory, so campers should take care to secure their food.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Rose Canyon is the first major campsite you’ll pass during your drive. The campground has a seven-acre lake nearby and takes reservations if you want to secure a spot.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The next campground along the route is Spencer Canyon. It is a little more secluded, so does not take reservations.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Both Rose Canyon and Spencer Canyon cost $18 per night for up to 10 people in two vehicles. No fire permit is necessary at either site.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Other Mount Lemmon campgrounds cost $10 per night for up to 10 people in two vehicles.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Get out of the heat and don’t think about school… it’s summer time. Relax during your camping trip on Mount Lemmon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;FYI&lt;br /&gt;Mount Lemmon campsites&lt;br /&gt;Web site: www.recreation.gov&lt;br /&gt;Phone: 576-1477&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://aztecpress.blogspot.com/2009/05/escape-heat-at-mount-lemmon-campgrounds.html"&gt;http://aztecpress.blogspot.com/2009/05/escape-heat-at-mount-lemmon-campgrounds.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6108325904141774416-944828574173118762?l=arizonawildlife.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://arizonawildlife.blogspot.com/feeds/944828574173118762/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6108325904141774416&amp;postID=944828574173118762' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6108325904141774416/posts/default/944828574173118762'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6108325904141774416/posts/default/944828574173118762'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://arizonawildlife.blogspot.com/2009/05/escape-heat-at-mount-lemmon-campgrounds.html' title='Escape the heat at Mount Lemmon campgrounds'/><author><name>The Team at Tucson Websites</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11456606306371861309</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='18' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_38U6vDRmzEQ/SMgC71sfu2I/AAAAAAAAAAo/ABBNfRoc25c/S220/111904-23ss.jpg'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6108325904141774416.post-3140732782580716459</id><published>2008-10-26T12:09:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-10-26T12:13:48.761-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Greyhound Racing'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Law'/><title type='text'>Greyhound Racing - Prop 401</title><content type='html'>&lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255); font-family: arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Here is a blog I found while surfing.. hardly a non-biased opinion on their part, but it's worth reprinting IMO&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255); font-family: arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Make up your own mind, but for the dog's sake, take a few minutes to research this one before you vote..&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255); font-family: arial;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.endtucsongreyhoundracing.com/blog/2008/10/25/tucson-dog-protection-vote-yes-401/"&gt;---------------------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255); font-family: arial;"&gt;As the election draws near, the good people of South Tucson will have to decide whether to vote YES on proposition 401 or the alternative.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255); font-family: arial;"&gt;So far the &lt;em&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.tucsoncitizen.com/ss/opinion/98645.php"&gt;Tucson Citizen&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt;, the &lt;em&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.azstarnet.com/allheadlines/262937.php"&gt;Arizona Daily Star&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt;, and the &lt;a target="_blank" href="http://www.tucsonweekly.com/gbase/Currents/Content?oid=116378"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Tucson Weekly&lt;/em&gt; &lt;/a&gt;have all endorsed a YES vote.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255); font-family: arial;"&gt;The dog track has said that they will have to close but I find that hard to believe.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255); font-family: arial;"&gt;The measures in Prop. 401 are modest and humane and will not break the bank especially when the South Tucson dog park made $4.9 MILLION.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255); font-family: arial;"&gt;If anything, &lt;strong&gt;the solution would be to ADD some new part-time jobs &lt;/strong&gt;to cook the meat instead of feeding raw diseased meat; to separate the dogs by gender instead of dosing the females with anabolic steroids.

Donaldson, D.V.M. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;    From January 1998 to January 2003, the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center (APCC) received 44 calls regarding paintball ingestion by dogs that subsequently developed clinical signs.&lt;br /&gt;    In some cases, the dogs may have ingested as many as 500 paintballs at one time. Paintball ingredients vary depending on the manufacturer...&lt;br /&gt;    In dogs, the most common clinical signs reported to the ASPCA APCC were vomiting (with or without paint) ataxia, diarrhea, and tremors. These signs occurred as early as one hour after ingestion.&lt;br /&gt;    In two cases, the dogs were euthanized because their central nervous system signs were unresponsive to treatment; no other deaths were reported.&lt;br /&gt;    The exact number of ingested paintballs required to cause clinical signs is unknown. In one case, a 90-lb (41-kg) Labrador retriever showed clinical signs after ingesting 15 paintballs. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;If you believe that your dog is a victim of Paintball Poisoning, please refer to - or direct your veterinarian to the following website: &lt;a href="http://www.aspca.org/site/DocServer/toxbrief1203.pdf?docID=1521"&gt;http://www.aspca.org/site/DocServer/toxbrief1203.pdf?docID=1521&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6108325904141774416-7004018106905446995?l=arizonawildlife.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://arizonawildlife.blogspot.com/feeds/7004018106905446995/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6108325904141774416&amp;postID=7004018106905446995' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6108325904141774416/posts/default/7004018106905446995'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6108325904141774416/posts/default/7004018106905446995'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://arizonawildlife.blogspot.com/2008/10/paintballs-are-toxic-to-dogs.html' title='Paintballs are Toxic to Dogs'/><author><name>The Team at Tucson Websites</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11456606306371861309</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='18' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_38U6vDRmzEQ/SMgC71sfu2I/AAAAAAAAAAo/ABBNfRoc25c/S220/111904-23ss.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6108325904141774416.post-2871566655780589303</id><published>2008-09-28T18:01:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2008-09-28T18:02:00.091-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Events'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Desert Museum'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Butterfly'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Insects'/><title type='text'>8th Annual Desert Museum Butterfly Festival: Sept 27-28, 2008</title><content type='html'>&lt;h2&gt;8th Annual Desert Museum Butterfly Festival &amp;amp; Plant Sale!&lt;br /&gt;September 27 &amp;amp; 28, 2008&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.desertmuseum.org/about/newsphotos/news123.jpg" alt="" style="padding: 5px;" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;p&gt; Delight in the Beauty of Butterflies at the Desert Museum Butterfly Festival and Plant Sale &lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p&gt; Come check out the Butterfly Festival!

I’d long seen bats flitting around at twilight in my neighborhood, and had wondered where it was they might sleep during the day. I definitely hadn’t been able to imagine any caves within the city, and I didn’t think they’d fly so far as to come from open desert…but under any of the bridges crossing the Rillito River? There was only one way to find out, and that was to attend &lt;a href="http://www.rillitoriverproject.org/bat-night.html"&gt;Bat Night&lt;/a&gt;!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6108325904141774416-2911508426065034503?l=arizonawildlife.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://arizonawildlife.blogspot.com/feeds/2911508426065034503/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6108325904141774416&amp;postID=2911508426065034503' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6108325904141774416/posts/default/2911508426065034503'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6108325904141774416/posts/default/2911508426065034503'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://arizonawildlife.blogspot.com/2008/09/bats-and-music-under-tucson-bridge.html' title='Bats and Music Under a Tucson Bridge'/><author><name>The Team at Tucson Websites</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11456606306371861309</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='18' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_38U6vDRmzEQ/SMgC71sfu2I/AAAAAAAAAAo/ABBNfRoc25c/S220/111904-23ss.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6108325904141774416.post-3185818084841572601</id><published>2008-09-18T15:50:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-09-18T15:51:47.128-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Bats'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Humingbird'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Video'/><title type='text'>Tucson's Hummingbird Feeder Bats Movie</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(51, 51, 255);"&gt;Some of the most unusual visitors to Tucson, Arizona hummingbird feeders are bats&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(51, 51, 255);"&gt;watch the video here:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(51, 51, 255);" href="http://fireflyforest.net/firefly/2008/09/18/tucsons-hummingbird-feeder-bats-movie/"&gt;http://fireflyforest.net/firefly/2008/09/18/tucsons-hummingbird-feeder-bats-movie/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6108325904141774416-3185818084841572601?l=arizonawildlife.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://arizonawildlife.blogspot.com/feeds/3185818084841572601/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6108325904141774416&amp;postID=3185818084841572601' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6108325904141774416/posts/default/3185818084841572601'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6108325904141774416/posts/default/3185818084841572601'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://arizonawildlife.blogspot.com/2008/09/tucsons-hummingbird-feeder-bats-movie.html' title='Tucson&apos;s Hummingbird Feeder Bats Movie'/><author><name>The Team at Tucson Websites</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11456606306371861309</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='18' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_38U6vDRmzEQ/SMgC71sfu2I/AAAAAAAAAAo/ABBNfRoc25c/S220/111904-23ss.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6108325904141774416.post-370134369403990434</id><published>2008-09-17T12:40:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-09-17T12:42:51.709-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Rescue'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Dogs'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Doberman'/><title type='text'>Doberman Rescue of Arizona</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;color:Black;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Doberman Rescue of Arizona  &lt;br /&gt; &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;color:Black;"&gt; Dorothy Lechuga, 2618 E.

He'll contact Doberman Rescue; if they don't want him, he'll be euthanized," Chairman of Selectmen Charles Evirs said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The board also ordered measures to ensure that Brandy, a second Doberman owned by the Browns that was not believed to be involved in the attack, would not be able to escape from the fenced in yard.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The hearing is the first time in recent years that a dog has been ordered out of town or destroyed. Recent vicious dog hearings involving dog attacks on other dogs include Fatboy, an English Bulldog who attacked a neighborhood dog who was being walked on a leash in January. Fatboy was ordered to wear a muzzle while off of his property and take obedience training, with the muzzle order to be reconsidered once the training had been completed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another dog, a Great Dane owned by Keith Boucher, of Laurel Street, has been before the selectmen twice in the past year for attacking other dogs. In December, the board ordered a fence adequate to contain the dog constructed around the property. Until the fence was built, the dog was to be on a run and muzzled any time she was out of the house.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In May, a second hearing was held to address another attack, and the board learned that Mr. Boucher had not fulfilled the terms of the previous order. At that time the board ordered the dog "permanently restrained," ordered Mr. Boucher to construct a 20 foot by 20 foot kennel six feet high to contain the dog, requiring that the dog be on a run or chain and muzzled until the kennel was constructed, and to and from the kennel once it was constructed. Mr. Boucher was alerted that, "if another incident occurs with your dog, the selectmen will order that the dog be removed from the town of Lakeville and you will be fined $100."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The euthanasia order was a result of an attack on a North Precinct Street neighbor's miniature schnauzer August 21. Thomas Furlong said he took his two small dogs for a walk around 6:45 a.m., but noticed the Brown's two Dobermans loose down the street. He turned to return to his house, but one of the Dobermans ran "about 100 yards" toward them and attacked the schnauzer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The schnauzer received eight bite wounds and had to undergo emergency surgery at Tufts Veterinary Hospital. Veterinary bills to date have totaled $4,597.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mr. Furlong said he went to see the Browns the night of the attack. The Browns expressed their concern and offered immediately to pay the veterinary bill.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"My husband made an honest mistake, he left the gate open, and the dogs were out on the morning of August 21," Ms. Costa-Brown said. "When I noticed the dogs were out of the yard, I called them and they came"¦I was not aware at this time that anything had happened"¦we do not know what happened. We do not know if this incident was unprovoked, we were not present. Did the dogs bark at each other? Was there some sort of aggression on the part of the dogs? We don't know. All my husband and I know is that two dogs were in a fight."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Within days the Browns began installing a six-foot high stockade fence around the front and side of the yard, which had previously had kennel fencing around it. Ms. Brown said they did this because Mr. Furlong expressed his fear of walking past the house after the attack on his dog. They also installed an auto-latching gate to prevent a similar incident from occurring again. The Browns have already paid the initial veterinary bill of $2879.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Browns adopted Drake from Doberman Rescue three years ago, when he was two. They also have a female, Brandy, who is three. There have not been any documented complaints about either of the dogs prior to this incident.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mr. Furlong said that he delivered letters to 48 homes in the neighborhood to tell neighbors about the attack, and then met with 27 families to ask support before the Board of Selectmen for the dog hearing Monday night. About a dozen emails and letters were sent to the board, expressing fear of another incident and requesting that the dog be put down.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"My wife, Barbara, and I respectfully request that the Board of Selectmen, that you order humane euthanization soon, so that a child, an adult, or a family pet is not slaughtered, or maimed, or killed," Mr. Furlong said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Neighbors crowding the room argued that human error cannot be ruled out in the future, and that once a dog attacks, it will do so again. They expressed fear for their children's and pets' safety if the dog was allowed to remain in its home.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ms. Brown said she and her husband are responsible dog owners, and suggested that the additional measures they have taken would ensure the safety of the neighborhood. They do not feel that the dog is a danger.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"While I completely understand Mr. and Mrs. Furlong are frightened and upset"¦I don't think one honest mistake warrants death," Ms. Brown said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Due to potential conflict of interest from the Furlong's house being listed for sale with the real estate company Selectman Derek Maksy's wife works with, Mr. Maksy recused himself from the discussion, leaving Mr. Evirs and Ms. Yeatts to determine sentencing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ms. Yeatts was not comfortable sentencing the dog to death. She suggested finding a way to get the dog out of town, but Mr. Evirs did not want to give a problem dog to another town. After determining to send the dog to the rescue organization, which will have record of the attack and take that into consideration when adopting the animal out again, the two turned their attention to the remaining Doberman in the Brown's home.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mr. Furlong had explained that the second Doberman had not participated in the attack, but had held back toward its own property. Ms. Brown said the female dog was timid, which was a primary reason she believed the male to have been the one involved in the fight.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The board ordered that the automatically latching gate, which currently swings out of the yard, be changed so that it swings into the fenced area, to prevent the dog from being able to accidentally push the gate open if the latch were to fail. Selectmen also ordered the dog to either wear a muzzle, be on a run, or in a kennel inside of the fenced area, in order to have a "second layer of insurance" against another incident.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Browns surrendered Drake Monday night after the hearing, and waived the ten-day appeal period. Doberman Rescue was to have picked the dog up from the shelter yesterday.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When questioned about the apparent arbitrary manner if which dogs are sentenced, Ms. Yeatts agreed that there did not seem to be a standard the board uses to determine how to decide a case.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"I can't disagree — I find it really hard. I know we're the executive board, but now we also have to be experts on dog hearings, and what to do if there's a problem," she said. "Maybe this is the beginning of setting a standard. I think we have been way too lenient in the past."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Copyright © 1995-2008 South Coast Media Group&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.southcoasttoday.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080911/PUB04/809110452" target="_blank"&gt;http://www.southcoasttoday.com/apps/...UB04/809110452&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6108325904141774416-764461391973604397?l=arizonawildlife.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://arizonawildlife.blogspot.com/feeds/764461391973604397/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6108325904141774416&amp;postID=764461391973604397' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6108325904141774416/posts/default/764461391973604397'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6108325904141774416/posts/default/764461391973604397'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://arizonawildlife.blogspot.com/2008/09/selectmen-order-doberman-banished-or.html' title='Selectmen order doberman banished or euthanized'/><author><name>The Team at Tucson Websites</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11456606306371861309</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='18' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_38U6vDRmzEQ/SMgC71sfu2I/AAAAAAAAAAo/ABBNfRoc25c/S220/111904-23ss.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6108325904141774416.post-877744008736050201</id><published>2008-09-12T15:12:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-09-12T15:22:39.402-07:00</updated><title type='text'>We Started our Arizona Animal, Pet and Wildlife Blog</title><content type='html'>Welcome to our new Animal, Pet and Wildlife Blog for Arizona .. looks like most of the pictures stopped working in our first set of posts, we'll add them a different way next time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;More reviews, photos along with our thoughts on the way..&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6108325904141774416-877744008736050201?l=arizonawildlife.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://arizonawildlife.blogspot.com/feeds/877744008736050201/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6108325904141774416&amp;postID=877744008736050201' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6108325904141774416/posts/default/877744008736050201'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6108325904141774416/posts/default/877744008736050201'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://arizonawildlife.blogspot.com/2008/09/we-started-our-arizona-animal-pet-and.html' title='We Started our Arizona Animal, Pet and Wildlife Blog'/><author><name>The Team at Tucson Websites</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11456606306371861309</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='18' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_38U6vDRmzEQ/SMgC71sfu2I/AAAAAAAAAAo/ABBNfRoc25c/S220/111904-23ss.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6108325904141774416.post-6730853988115789768</id><published>2008-09-10T13:12:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2008-09-16T01:26:39.633-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Dogs'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Pets'/><title type='text'>the Labrador Retriever</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class="genfont"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;a href="http://arizonapets.net/Articles.php?action=detail&amp;amp;g=content1216008565" target="_parent" class="a16 blue"&gt;the Labrador Retriever&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="http://arizonapets.net/Articles.php?action=detail&amp;amp;g=content1216008565" target="_parent" class="blue"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;                                     &lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span class="genfont"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Posted By: &lt;a href="http://aboveandbeyondpools.com/" target="_blank"&gt;Above and Beyond Pools&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;             Posted: Sun Jul 13 2008&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;   The Labrador may be the most popular breed of dog in the world.

They are gentle, intelligent, energetic and good natured. Labrador Retrievers are widely used by police for their detection and working abilities. Labradors can be large, with males typically weighing between 65–80 lbs and females 55–70 lbs. There are three colors for Labs, black, yellow (cream to gold), and chocolate. Show-bred Labs are heavier, shorter, and have a thicker coat and tail. Field Labs are generally longer legged, lighter, and more light in build. Approximately 60–70% of all guide dogs in the United States are Labradors. The first Labradors were born in England after 1850: they were black. The Labrador retriever descends from Newfoundland where they were the helpers of fisherman, recovering nets and fish." src="http://www.tucsonpictures.com/pics/2008-07/0-7-08-0086.jpg" width="500" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span class=""&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6108325904141774416-6730853988115789768?l=arizonawildlife.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://arizonawildlife.blogspot.com/feeds/6730853988115789768/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6108325904141774416&amp;postID=6730853988115789768' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6108325904141774416/posts/default/6730853988115789768'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6108325904141774416/posts/default/6730853988115789768'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://arizonawildlife.blogspot.com/2008/09/labrador-retriever.html' title='the Labrador Retriever'/><author><name>The Team at Tucson Websites</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11456606306371861309</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='18' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_38U6vDRmzEQ/SMgC71sfu2I/AAAAAAAAAAo/ABBNfRoc25c/S220/111904-23ss.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6108325904141774416.post-5843957540286804887</id><published>2008-09-10T13:11:00.002-07:00</published><updated>2008-09-16T01:27:05.740-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Parks'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Dogs'/><title type='text'>Dog Drinking Fountain</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class="genfont"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;a href="http://arizonapets.net/Articles.php?action=detail&amp;amp;g=content1208154597" target="_parent" class="a16 blue"&gt;Dog Drinking Fountain&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="http://arizonapets.net/Articles.php?action=detail&amp;amp;g=content1208154597" target="_parent" class="blue"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;                                     &lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span class="genfont"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Posted By: &lt;a href="http://www.az13.com/" target="_blank"&gt;Bubba&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;             Posted: Mon Apr 14 2008&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;   We took a few pictures of a dog drinking fountain at a Tucson Park.

Just exposing them to a different diet for a small amount of time or for a few generations will not change their genetic needs. The Doberman’s diet should contain nutrient sources which are similar to those found in the native environment of the breed’s ancestors and the proper balance of protein, carbohydrates, fatty acids, vitamins and minerals which match the breed’s specific nutritional requirements. One breed can require ten times what a different breed requires per pound of weight but this amount may simply be toxic to the next breed of dog.   The Doberman was developed in the shadows of Germany’s beer breweries. When compared to other breeds, it requires higher amounts of certain amino acids so the proteins you provide should be high in Phenylalanine and Thyrosine. Since the bulk nutrients of the area where the Doberman developed were high in these essential amino acids, this breed requires the same protein make-up today. Food sources found in the Doberman’s native environment included grain crops used for brewing beer with beef and pork as meat sources. Therefore, the best protein sources for Dobermans is a blend of beef, pork or horse meat. Conversely, the worst blend would be chicken and fish. The balance and amounts are not listed here because each individual animal can have different requirements depending upon such factors as sex of the animal, age, activity level, stress levels, medical conditions and other dietary factors (i.e. does the water supply contain high amounts of minerals?). The amount of vitamins and minerals the Doberman needs may have already been supplied or exceeded by the amount which is in most all-breed/any-breed commercial foods so owners should not supplement what may already be TOO MUCH. This can be toxic and just as harmful (or more so) than too little.   Good food is more expensive but owners who feed their Doberman CORRECTLY can save a lot of money. Many dogs are taken to the vet suffering from nutritionally related problems and the vet bills can be huge! So time spent learning about your puppies needs and then selecting the proper diet is like money in the bank. The basic idea here is to feed your friend " say="" i="" don="" t="" mean="" type="" costs="" 5="" 20="" pound="" when="" look="" good="" fatty="" acids="" test="" are="" considering="" placing="" cup="" brown="" bag="" for="" an="" hour="" then="" check="" lots="" oils="" ll="" see="" evidence="" absorbed="" now="" oily="" remember="" old="" get="" what="" pay="" so="" does="" canine="" start="" your="" off="" 4="" daily="" feedings="" using="" same="" breeder="" used="" if="" plan="" it="" begin="" mixing="" in="" little="" until="" has="" had="" time="" adjust="" new="" paper="" training="" housebreaking="" diarrhea="" fun="" abrupt="" dietary="" changes="" virtually="" assure="" having="" much="" at="" about="" can="" tolerate="" feeding="" schedule="" change="" to="" 3="" times="" instead="" you="" must="" feed="" regularly="" during="" those="" first="" 10="" weeks="" because="" its="" rapid="" growth="" and="" resultant="" nutritional="" requirements="" of="" that="" brand="" name="" food="" is="" adult="" dog="" foods="" usually="" do="" not="" have="" all="" nutrients="" by="" 6="" the="" puppy="" will="" more="" than="" likely="" be="" eating="" twice="" day="" with="" a="" possible="" snack="" treat="" or="" two="" between="" class="picbrdr" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6108325904141774416-6811080585532365569?l=arizonawildlife.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://arizonawildlife.blogspot.com/feeds/6811080585532365569/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6108325904141774416&amp;postID=6811080585532365569' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6108325904141774416/posts/default/6811080585532365569'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6108325904141774416/posts/default/6811080585532365569'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://arizonawildlife.blogspot.com/2008/09/your-dobermans-diet.html' title='Your Doberman’s Diet'/><author><name>The Team at Tucson Websites</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11456606306371861309</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='18' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_38U6vDRmzEQ/SMgC71sfu2I/AAAAAAAAAAo/ABBNfRoc25c/S220/111904-23ss.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6108325904141774416.post-3878031533990682403</id><published>2008-09-10T13:07:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2008-09-10T13:07:22.215-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Dogs'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='First Aid'/><title type='text'>Instructions For Care Of Ears Following Cropping</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class="genfont"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;a href="http://arizonapets.net/Articles.php?action=detail&amp;amp;g=content1156496475" target="_parent" class="a16 blue"&gt;Instructions For Care Of Ears Following Cropping&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="http://arizonapets.net/Articles.php?action=detail&amp;amp;g=content1156496475" target="_parent" class="blue"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;                                      &lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span class="genfont"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Posted By: &lt;a href="http://spear-barkennels.com/" target="_blank"&gt;Spear-Bar Kennels&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;              Posted: Fri Aug 25 2006 2: 01 am&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;    1.

Sutures will probably be removed from the edge of the ear about 7-10 days after surgery. The ears are usually re-taped 2-3 days after suture removal (check with your vet to know exactly what schedule he or she prefers). During this time, the puppy should be separated from other dogs if possible to prevent them from licking the exposed sutures thus delaying healing and causing excessive scar tissue formation which, in many instances, will prevent the ears from standing properly.  2. During the interval between suture removal and the time re-taping is scheduled, massage the healing edges of the ear twice daily using vaseline as a lubricant. Employ a stretching motion as you massage to help prevent scarring as healing progresses. DO NOT use vaseline on the day of re-taping or the tape will not stick to the ear. The ears must be kept CLEAN and DRY both before and after re-taping. If they get wet after re-taping, remove the tape IMMEDIATELY and either take the dog to the vet for re-taping or, if you are SURE you know how to properly do so, re-tape the ears yourself (see taping instructions below). If you re-tape yourself, DO NOT cover the exposed sutures at the base of the ear.  3. Avoid playing with the puppy excessively while he is learing to perk the ears up. If you play excessively, you puppy will instinctively pull the ears down. Avoid “rough-housing”. Try to get your puppy to pick the ears up as often as possible by making unusual noises or blowing a whistle to get his attention.  4. On rare occasions, a puppy will develop a soft, pliable, thick cartilage wich simply does not have the ability to stand and the ears will never stand properly.  5. Some puppys simply are not all that interested in what is going on around them and do not try to work their ears by perking them up. If your puppy displays this behavior, use a silent dog whistle and any other means possible to try to stimulate some interest in perking the ears up.  6. Ears which are continously wet after taping are very slow to stand. The cartilage loses its rigidity and develops scar tissue formation. Keep the ears CLEAN and DRY!!  7. If your puppy is hyperactive and insists on scratching at the bandages the first week following surgery, give him from ½ of a 5 grain ASPIRIN, not acetominophen (acetominophen like that found in Tylenol, IS TOXIC TO A DOG). Many times, the aspirin will reduce inflammation and alleviate the itching associated with the sutures and bandages. Administer up to one full 5 grain aspirin every 4-6 hours.   8. If you work with your puppy and your puppy works with you, the ears should stand well in several weeks to 1 or 2 months with a minimal amount of discomfort to you or to the puppy.  9. Baby socks taped over the rear paws or a hand towel rolled like a donut and pinned around the neck will help prevent the puppy from scratching at its ears and pulling out the sutures.
