Here it would be abuse. If you like your cat you keep it
home. I run a state authorized and monitored nuisance
animal trapline.
This morning there was a cat in a snare. Ordinarily,
an animal caught in a snare can be released unharmed.
One of the animals I am targeting is coyotes (and the
complaint was that coyotes were killing area cats)
Duh.. If your cats are becoming lunch for wild animals,
to me .. It makes sense to keep your cats in where they
can't become lunch.. whatever.
Regarding this cat in the snare. It went nuts. It leaped,
and tangled itself, and most certainly strangulated it's
intestines. It had the snare pulled tight down to the
diameter of a dime (just large enough to encircle the
spine) around the waist area.
This cats snarled, and attacked. Trying to extricate this cat
was exceedingly difficult, not to mention dangerous. Because
I feared damage to the intestines and death of the gut, I
imagined this cat was not likely to survive.
It would have been much simpler to dispatch the unfortunate
cat and take out the dead body. Instead, this cat wore a
collar. it deserved a chance, and the owner deserved closure.
(no id on the collar).
It escaped, just as I released it and it couldn't be taken to
the vet for examination. I will probably never know if this
particular cat survives the experience or not.
People in the area were aware that trapping was being done and
apparently still let their cats run free, b oth endangered by
the traps and by the coyotes being targeted that are causing a
problem with their cat population.
Had that cat not been wearing a collar, I would not have tried
to release this hostile cat. Releasing it may not have been a
kindness, but then... cats weren't supposed to be attracted to
this type of trap, in this position, and then they weren't
supposed to go ape, to get themselves in this situation.
If you like your pet, you keep them home.

Actually, I borrowed the vets office kitten once for a
couple days for school education on pet care and safe
handling as well as responsible pet owner****p.
I kept the kitten over night in a crate within a crate
and yet my dog (yes, Angelic Danny, as well as Taya
and Toby tore that kittne to threads from between the
crate bars. (apparently he stuck his paws through the
crate to bat at the dogs. I was out doing yard work
and rushed in to find the little kittens pieces and
parts being torn through by ALL the dogs.
I called my girl friend to come get my dogs. I screamed
displeasure, and stalked out with the kitten. Danny, et
al spent 3 days in a kennel until I finally felt like I
could interact with them without doing bodily harm. All
three dogs were never touched, but knew they had done
something so unspeakable that I wouldn't associate with
them and they got banished.
To this day, Taya (mom and Dad's dog) and Danny will
not look at a cat. When confronted with one, Danny wees
himself and cowers hiding behind me for help.
I'm not saying this would work this way with all dogs,
But mom and dad now have a house cat, and she has
never been harmed by any of the dogs. Danny is there
all the time, unsupervised, and has no interest in harming
the cat.

Subject: Mojo's last day-a year late
I'll warn you right up front this is not a story that will
end up with you feeling anything good. I know this because
I've been living with this almost a year. The difference to
me right now is that I'm finally able to write about it having
taken this long because I knew I'd have to re-live it once
again and up until now, I couldn't.
Mojo died a year ago on the 21rd of June.
He did not die well.
I won't go into the details that led us to that last day here
as I already have written of that on my LJ. If you do want to
read it just ask and I'll post the URL.
Luke's death in January of the same year is also there and will
show the vast contrast between what happened with each dog and
why Mojo's death has been so difficult for me and pretty much
destroyed any hope of any real closure for my husband and I.
These dogs lived with us daily, close to us in ways that no
other two dogs have been. They'd been through a catostrophic
hurricane with us, they'd both had medical problems we'd
dutifully taken care of for much of their lives and they've
traveled literally, thousands of miles with us. We'd all lived
together in a 26 foot long travel trailer at times and that in
itself is pretty darn intimate in the "living with the dogs"
department.
We could read each other's moods and sometimes didn't even
have to speak to them and they'd know what we wanted just
by their observations of our body language. It was unique,
even more so than our previous canine crews.
We'd only been back in Idaho,in this town for @[EMAIL PROTECTED]
3 months when
we first took Mojo in to a new vet. I liked him a great deal
and was impressed with him. He was an older guy yet very willing
to listen to me and best of all, he and Mojo seemed to hit it off
immediately. He had always been partial to the big dogs, GSDs in
particular.
In the next few days we'd be forced to think the unthinkable
that we all have to when we outlive our dogs but since I'd
been through this three times before I knew all the questions
to ask beforehand. Or so I thought.
The vet and I had discussed in great detail what we'd be doing,
what we'd be using, where my husband and I would be, what we'd
observe, what would be happening at what point in time-everything.
No surprises. Just as peacefully and as perfect as when we'd put
Luke down six months earlier.
As hard as that was, as much as I will always miss him just
as much as all my other beloved dogs, I left there feeling
closure and the deep belief and comfort that I'd done the
right thing by him. I felt as a responsible dog owner that
could proudly look in the mirror and believe I did the right
thing for Luke.
The day we took Mojo in to say goodbye however, we weren't
greeted by the vet I'd met and talked to and gotten to know
but by his associate, whom I'd never met before. In retrospect
I should have stopped everything right then and there but I didn't.
I trusted he'd do things exactly the way the other vet and I
discussed and I believed everything that took place when it
was Luke's turn would happen that day with Mojo.
And I think also that mentally we'd prepared ourselves for it
so well it never occurred to us to go back. We were ready and
Mojo was ready. I've always abided by one simple rule with all
my dogs and that is that when the time is right, when life is
too painful for them to enjoy;
then my promise, my duty is that I will allow them to go with
dignity, quietly and stress free; to a place where there is no
pain. I _owe_ them that at the very least.
That day we sat on the floor with Mojo, his favorite red plaid/
sheepskin blanket under him and hand fed him his favorite treats-
beef, chocolate, whatever. He received his first shot to relax
him and as he drifted off and dozed a bit the vet and his assistant
began to administer the final shot. We expecting the exact same
thing that had happened with Champ, Darcy and Luke...to begin
seeing his breathing slow, his eyes close and his body to fully
relax until a check on his heartbeat showed he was really and
truly gone while listening to the love in our voices to
comfort him. That didn't happen.
He suddenly began thra****ng around wildly and screaming loudly
as the vet kept trying to stick the needle in his vein. As out of it as
he was then he still managed to half stand up, still screaming loudly
in pain.
I couldn't move. I was absolutely horrified and paralyzed.
My husband finally found the presence of mind to ask "What
is happening, what's going on?, I thought this was going to
be peaceful"! The vet screamed back at him:
"IT NORMALLY IS! HIS VEINS HAVE COLLAPSED!"
The rational part of me realizes the vet was horrified as well
and the yelling and defensiveness was part of that but the other
part of me, the white hot angry part was so upset that Mojo was
hearing all of this disturbance in our voices I wanted to punch
the guy right in the face.
Instead I grabbed him by his coat collar and pulled his face
close to mine but I couldn't say anything.I was in shock.
My concern for only Mojo kicked in then and my husband flat out
told the vet to leave right now that we needed some time with
Mojo to settle him and calm him down.
The vet left and we spent the next 15 to 20 minutes crooning
to Mojo, petting him and comforting him until he became calm
and dozed again, his head in lap and our arms around him.
The vet returned with a different syringe that contained
something of a different color and I swear to you that his
face was ash white. I have no idea what we looked like but
I have no doubt ours were too.
The final shot was administered and we spent the next ten
minutes with tears streaming down our faces and our bodies
wracked in sobs not because Mojo was gone but because he'd
gone like that and we felt responsible.
The gift of going without pain was ours to give him and we
failed him. And in doing so we also would never receive the
closure we needed as well.
After that, we got up and left him there on the floor with
his blanket and walked out like zombies. I don't throw up
as a rule of thumb unless I have a bad stomach virus because
I hate it so much which means I've thrown up about 3 time in
the past 30 years.
That day, I made it as far as the car door then I threw up
all over the parking lot then again when I got home.
I literally was so overwhelmed by what had just happened and so
emotionally drained like nothing I'd ever experienced before.
To this day my husband and I have never sat down and gone over
the minute details together because we were there-we don't need to.
We have discussed it indirectly, hugged each other and cried buckets
of tears. To be brutally honest I've been more affected by this than
by losing my Mom last fall because she at least went very peacefully,
unlike Mojo. You can be very sure when it's Taffy's time this is
something I will be discussing with the vet and if there's a backup
plan for this sort of thing you can be damn sure it will be in place.
I never ever want to see another animal I love go through this
again in my life. Had I known this would happen, I'd have taken
him out and put a bullet through his head myself to guarantee it
would be painless and quick.
I'd much rather live with that image than the one I carry around.
It took me six months just to be able to drive down that street
without being aware or looking at the window where it happened
and I haven't been back in to talk to that vet whom, I recently
learned, sold the practice to someone else.
I probably should have gone back within a few weeks or so
but now too much time has elapsed for me to feel comfortable
doing that.
I've never heard of anyone else having this happen and maybe
if I had I'd have somehow been able to prevent it but I'll
never know for sure.
So that's what happened last year when Mojo died and it's why
I have had such a difficult time with it as well a big reason
as to why I've disappeared a lot from the newsgroup for long
periods of time.
Often I've logged on here but see that someone has recently
lost a dog and it's just too hard so I quietly leave. I do
want ya'll to know though that my silence doesn't mean I'm
indifferent to your loss, it's just brings back too many bad
memories of my own.
So this part of the healing process has begun, it seems.
RIP Mojo

Not at all.

No; what happened with Boomer, the world's most loving Siberian, is
that he had lumbosacral stenosis, which is why he was going to the
Bridge in the first place - he'd had discomfort and mobility problems
for some time but still bounded around with his odd rocking horse
gait, happy to be alive, until that Friday evening when his back end
just gave out and he couldn't get up. But our usual vet, the senior
guy, isn't in on Saturdays, and this vet didn't know about his back
problem, and I think the position she put him in on the table
aggravated it. But I also have to say that for some reason, Boomer
was agitated as soon as I put him in the van to go to the vet that
morning, which was very unusual for him. He kind of whined off
and on to the vet and acted as though he were in distress at the vet's
until the euthanasia solution kicked in. It was very unnerving and,
as with you and Mojo, not something I like to remember.
> Do you feel it was a lack of experience that caused the problem,
> the bedside manner or the fact you didn't know him/her very well?
Lack of experience. Her bedside manner was fine; she was very kind.
But she didn't know Boomer, and I guess she didn't look at his chart
or she'd have seen he had back problems, and I didn't think to tell
her until it was too late. Obviously, I wasn't thinking as clearly as
I hopefully do ordinarily, but that's a good reason to never have an
unfamiliar vet euthanize one's animals.
> And most im****tantly, what do you know of backup plans that can
> be put into place in the event it isn't going well initially and
> needs to be quickly ended, keeping the tension out of it?
In Boomer's case, I think she was a bit unnerved by his crying (not
screaming), and tried to speed it up. I chose not to say anything
about his back at that point and reposition him because I didn't want
to prolong it. I honestly don't know the answer to your question
about backup plans. We have never had a problem when the senior
vet does the procedure - - unlike many, maybe most vets, he does not
use a sedative beforehand, because he says that slows down the dog's
system and prolongs the process.
Sighthounds have these big old hearts that sometimes want to keep
going, so he tends to use more euthanasia solution than needed, and
I think that what he does is just give a huge dose that would drop a
small horse. The result is *always* that the dog loses consciousness
and dies very quickly. Peaceful each and every time, and the dog
doesn't have the added discomfort of an extra IV or catheter.
>> You still gave Mojo the gift of release from pain.
>> Eventually. :(
I know. But does live in and for the moment, and we humans can
take a big lesson from that. A dog would never keep remembering and
torturing itself the way you and your DH and I have. I know Boomer
would forgive those last moments, as he forgave everything else, and
I'm sure Mojo would as well. FWIW, you did the exact right thing by
calling a halt to the procedure and calming everybody, especially
Mojo down.
To lighten the moment, I will tell you what happened when we put
Tasha down on April 28. Tasha was a most awesome Siberian Husky.
She was 14 and we got her from a pound when she was about a year.
To say she was intelligent is like saying Paris Hilton is spoiled. She
once found our greyhound Matty in some woods about 6 miles from
home, where he hid during the 36 hours he was lost - DH said "find
Matty", and damned if she didn't.
She once grabbed the neck of a dog that DH was unsuccessfully
trying to prevent from attacking another dog - just closed her jaws
and held on. Anyway, she'd had osteosarcoma for 22 months and
it showed signs of having spread to her brain, and she had impaired
kidney function as well.
We were dreading this day like never before. Oddly enough, I
believe Tasha was ready. She was always our alpha, a supremely
confident dog with a great deal of pride. On the table, her front
paw shook and DH - - she was always his girl - - held it.
As always with this vet, it was very smooth and peaceful (he
particularly liked her, said she reminded him of that female l
ead dog on Eight Below) and she was gone very quickly. Just
as the vet and tech left the room and closed the door, leaving
DH and me alone with Tasha, her head came up, facing the
door, and her tongue stuck out.
DH couldn't help laughing - said she'd gotten the last word.
Yes, we know it was just a reflex, but it was somehow fitting.
I hope you don't mind me asking: have you ever discussed this with
another vet? If Mojo's reaction was caused by his veins collapsing
(and I've heard of that but not heard of it causing that result), why
was the vet able to complete the procedure?
Did he have something in the second syringe to dilate the veins?

To my mind, "naive" is believing you can terrorize a dog.
Naive is believing that people that hide behind fake

"Stupid" is believing that people do not see kindergarten

"Mojo is a humongeous GSD that is terrified of
his own shadow! A great big intimadating bark,
but a woosy at heart! BG! Today, and all this week,
we are seeing major T-storms, which Mojo is deathly
afraid of. I raced home early, and found a shed door
torn down, no front screens left, and a terrifed dog
trapped behind a barrier intended to keep them out
of the shed's water storage for god only knows how
long.. (Mojo drank half a bucket of water when I let
him in). He was trapped in that area, trying to find
some refuge, and he tore up a lot of insulation around
the tank to try and find a safe spot. I came home and
didn't see him in the yard, and didn't see a torn down
fence, so I raced inside and out the front door and ran
out to the shed door first to see if he was quaking in
there. There he was, trapped behind a 4 foot barrier
with not enough room behind him to launch himself
over it to come to me.(That body is a large 108# or so).
I tore open the wire(s) and out he came to stick like glue
to me for about 2 hours. I've replaced the shed door; had
to use the Kubota to prop it up and probably have to re-
seed the lawn now, ordered a big doggie door, and have
replaced the window and bought screens to replace this
weekend. All told so far, it's cost us @[EMAIL PROTECTED]
800 to repair the
damage. In the interim, I think I'll be missing work again
doggie sitting until we get a safety net for poor ol' Mojo.
My co-workers still_ think I'm nuts to take vacation days
for a *dog", but hey, what do they know about dog-human
bonding? Mojo lost a few hairs going over the wire, but
no damage was found, and I ran my hands over him like
a fine tuned massage therapist! Hey, when Mojo is in a
hurry to escape *bad noises*, he doesn't much care about
the size of the opening. He's COMIN through! Which
explains the dog hair left on the fence in the shed! Cheers,"

Hello dogsnuthin,
Dogs who are fearful are usually made that way
because they lack confidence in their ''trainer.''
Good LUCK. As you know, I don't put my trust in luck,
it's abundant, but RISKY... I rely on the INFORMATION
in the Wits' End Dog Training Method manual available
for FREE (don't THAT just frost your behind???) at

Tracy,
What worked for me, in just one storm,
was to praise the dog after each clap
of thunder, telling him he's a Good Dog!
This is an almost 13 year old Doberman, BTW.
The next time it thundered, he did not even
react at all--you could not tell it was the same
dog as before.
There was more thunder just the other day,
and same thing, nada, nothing, zilch, no
cowering, whimpering, trying to hide at all,
it was that simple.
I got this idea from Jerry Howe, who might seem
to be a "wild and crazy" character, but his non-
abusive way of handling dogs WORKS.
Wonderfully.
Praise.
It's that simple.

Subject: Turkey Gut/Mojo
Okay, it's been over 1 and a half weeks since Mojo
snagged a 20# turkey carcass off the WAY back area
of the counter, so he's okay now. This big_ moose is
bigger than I realized. DH was slicing off turkey flesh
to marinate and dehydrate, and realizing what happened
on Christmas day, (another story), DH made a point of
pu****ng this carcass WAY back on an area neither of us
would have realized that Mojo could reach . (Those who
have been here or seen our photos could visualize this part
of the kitchen).
Didn't work. (I've mentioned that Mojo was a HUGE oversized
GSD before). The platter was left unmoved and the carcass gone_.
Not ONE little turkey scrap was found anywhere in the house.
Cooked turkey, bones, GADS!
I have been following these dogs around the yard for
days watching their stools, and I demanded DH do the
same, since it happened while he was in charge during
the day.
(I know, I'm a hard task-master). WEG!
At any rate, now that we know Mojo has been "rewarded"
for his efforts, I'm about to set him up with cans and string
that hopefully will trip him up and scare the living smoke
out of him the next time he tries this little stunt.
I'll let you know what happens.

dogsnnuts,
It's not necessary to create a gigantic racket to scare
the Wits' End out of your dog...
All you need is any brief sound followed by praise.
Although it doesn't make any sense to you to praise
after the sound, it's not necessary for it to make sense
to you, just to the dog. The sound must never come
from the same place twice in a row, and scolding has
no place in the process.
Using the techniques exactly as I teach them, breaks
the dog's DESIRE for the unwanted behavior, not just
scares the bejesus out of him.
Had you read and followed the instructions I provide
here for free, you wouldn't have had the problem to
begin with.
Some slight differences in your approach to behavior
will make significant improvements in all of your results.

But you later recommend taking the dog inside and
giving a cookie every time it thunders and maybe
puttin the dog on leash and working with IT and

I'm not a trainer and my experience is limited to my
two dogs, so take it for what it's worth. As someone
who had to deal with a puppy who had his own ideas
about what was and what wasn't "proper behavior", I
was very happy to find The Amazing Puppy Wizard's
dog training method.
It is a method that is gentle to the dog, very easy
to apply and it has been working wonderfully with
both my dogs, giving practically instant results.
It was as if I had been given the "key" to understanding
and controlling my puppy's behavior: suddenly, he was
istening to me, doing what I was asking him to do, instead
of constantly opposing me.
It also worked with some issues my older dog had, too -
her fear of thunder, her barking and her aggression
towards another female dog.
Don't let either the first impression about the "weirdness"
of The Amazing Puppy Wizard, or the regulars' negative opinion
of him (there's a long history behind it) deter you from at
least reading the manual and deciding for yourself if you
want to try it or not.

Subj: Fear of Thunder
Date: 6/29/02 6:07:13 PM Eastern Daylight Time
From: Jraltman
To: Witsenddog
Dear Jerry,
I hope you'll be able to post this message so more
people who are at their wit's end will be able to help
their dogs.
To review:
Our puppy was uncomfortable during thunder storms.
At the beginning of the problem, she paced restlessly
from room to room. She couldn't settle and sleep.
From there the problem grew. She would run to the far
southeast corner of the house (which makes sense
because most storms here come from the northwest)
and she'd cower in the corner of the couch and shake.
!st attempt to help her:
I'd pick her up, brush and massage her (call me a nut -
I've sung to her when I've done her daily bru****ng since
she was tiny so of course I sang too) and when she
relaxed, I'd put her in her crate. She then slept and I
thought the problem was solved.
Traumatic event:
We were out in the park playing with one of her doggy
friends when it began to rain. On the way home, there
was the loudest, longest, thunder clap I've ever heard.
From that day on, the problem got worse and worse.
I couldn't calm her with singing and massage. The fear
spread. She wouldn't go out if it was raining. No thunder,
just gently summer rain, and she wouldn't go out.
The solution:
I surfed the net and came across a free manual Wit's
End Dog Training Method and a product called Doggy
Do Right that seemed better than anything else I came
across.
A phone call to Jerry Howe, author of the manual and
Director of Research, Biosound Scientific, convince me
to try both the manual and the product.
Problem solved:
I followed Jerry's suggestions (more phone calls - he is
most generous with his time and advice). The first two
thunder storms my puppy was restless but not running
around in a blind panic.
The third storm, she barked her deep, stranger danger
bark after each clap of thunder. The fourth storm, she
seemed uneasy at first. Soon she was asleep at my
feet and she napped through the rest of the storm.
A miracle. I am endlessly grateful to Jerry
for his manual and his machine.
A word about Doggy Do Right. It is odd to buy a
machine that emits a sound I cannot hear. I took
the chance because Jerry offered a full refund
including ****pping.
Though I heard nothing, my puppy clearly did. When
I first turned on the machine, she got the cutest, most
quizzical look on her face. She looked at me as if to
say: "What's that? I never heard that before."
She looks at the machine when it is on. She rests on the floor
beneath it. It is obvious from her behavior that she is aware
of its cycles.
Amazing.
Thank you Jerry.

won't DESTROY YOUR HOWES tryin to ESCAPE.
