Post subject: slippery floors and in the way pups...
Archived from groups: rec>pets>dogs>behavior (more info?)

Hi ! First time posting... I have a few questions, but I'll post
them separately to keep them topically appropriate...

I'm the new owner of an exuberant 2 month old red toy poodle named
Rusty.

I have a question about slippery floors... are these dangerous to the
dog? I know some dogs are afraid of them, but he seems to love
them... If anything seems to enjoy the tumbles and slides... and
seems to have even gotten the slide factor down to a science,

Another concern I have... he really follows me wherever I go close to
my heals. I do my best to avoid him, but I definitely have set him
sliding a few times (no yelps or injuries) - - Is this something I
need to deal with, or is it a "bumps and bruises of growing up"
thing? That's to say, if I make it too easy for him to follow on my
heals it'll encourage it forever, right? On the other hand, I
definitely don't want to injure him accidentally.

Any words of advice?

Thx!

He's a puppy who follows you everywhere. Not a bad habit in my opinion this
way you know where he's at and what he's doing..............less chance of
him getting to things he shouldn't. I prefer my dogs to be that way, some
find it annoying but they are pack animals and actually prefer to be in
human company.

Playing is a puppys life as long as he's not yelping in pain I don't see the
skids as a problem. I have a 3 month old who plays with my 3 year old and
they both chase each other and skid around the kitchen on a daily basis.
You should see the way they play in the yard where they really have room to
open up and zoom around. Gabby gets tumbled through the grass pretty
regularly during these play sessions and she gets back up and does it again.

Roxy has become very fond recently of rolling Hendrix. He doesn't seem to
mind at all. In fact, he seems to love it! With as big as it looks like
he's going to get, one of these days she's going to run into him and it's
going to be like hitting a brick wall. I'm thinking I may finally need to
get a video camera.

LOL..........I know what you mean. Gabby is growing quick she went from
tiny to 13 lbs in a month. I wouldn't be surprised if she tops out at 20lb
by the middle of next month. For a runt she's catching up quickly. At some
point I have a feeling she's going to be either just as big if not bigger
than Lady.

I'm happy to say I think we finally got the house breaking thing just about
all down. She finally comes and gets you when she needs out. The only time
she has laspses is late in the evening when she's just plain tired out.

I'm impressed! Just when I think Hendrix has gotten the idea, I realize he
hasn't. He will follow me to the back door and out into the yard to do his
business (followed, of course, by lotso praise), but he will also start
sniffing around the house when he has to go and that's when I pick him up
and take him out.

He's had one accident since the first few days, and it was my fault this
time (as opposed to my daughter's). We were outside and I slipped in the
backdoor to grab my drink. It literally took less than half a minute. I
went back out and didn't see Hendrix and started frantically searching the
yard with the WORST feeling in my stomach. Of course he was inside.
Peeing on the rug. *smacks self*

I guess I was just so spoiled with Barney. When he was a puppy he had one
accident in the house during the housre breaking he just caught right on.
Then when I took in Brandy (older dog) she had it down in three days. The
last was Buddy and he was trained in a week. Lady was pretty much
completely house broken when I got her from my sister. Her accidents were
my fault I didn't know that the boys had taught her to come jump up on their
chest when she needed out. Once it dawned on me what she wanted we had no
accidents. Now breaking her of that habit took well over a year now she
comes and nudges you when she wants out.

Let me tell you there were days I thought my god what did I get into she's
the hardest damned dog I've ever had to house break.

It seems the last week it's all clicking with
her.......................FINALLY!!!!!

Now that's not to say that my rug scrubber hasn't been in
use..................... In the last week and a half she's dragged off a
container of baby powder chewed the lid off it and dumped it on my steps.
Got a bottle of bubble bath that fell behind the tub chewed the lid off it
and got bubble bath all over the top step. Boy does my hallway smell good
now it has the vanilla & sugar smell to it......... And yesterday I found
the toilet plunger in the living room. I guess it was the ultimate chew toy
to her rubber on one end and wood on the other...........LOL Just when I
think I have the house puppy proofed she finds something.

So far the only thing Hendrix has gotten was my shovel (!!) and firewood
from the wood pile. Hendrix is never out of our sight, though, so it's
easy.

Roxy, OTOH, had Domino's cinnastix all over the living room rug last
night... (my son swears he thought he put them away. Riiiiiiiight.)

INTERFACE BETWEEN VESTIBULAR DYSFUNCTION AND ANXIETY:
MORE THAN JUST PSYCHOGENICITY.

Otology & Neurotology. 22(3):426-427, May 2001.
Current Opinion in Neurology. 14(1):41-46, February 2001.
Jacob, Rolf G. a; Furman, Joseph M. b
Abstract:


Anxiety and dizziness are co-morbid symptoms in a larger
percentage of patients than would be expected from chance
alone. Such patients have an increased handicap and poorer
prognosis. In this review, we discuss the interface between
vestibular disorders and anxiety disorders.


The two conditions are functionally related via both
somatopsychic and psychosomatic mechanisms, and are
linked via overlapping neural circuits that include
monoaminergic pathways and the parabrachial nucleus
network. An alternative conceptualization to the
common notion of 'psychogenic' dizziness is presented.


Implications for patient management are discussed.

is There A Common Neurological Background Of
The Vestibular And Anxiety/panic Disorders?


Dr. Fethi IDIMANa


aNöroloji AD, Dokuz Eylül Üniversitesi Tip Fakültesi, IZMIR


The most frequent and important symptom of vestibular
disorders is vertigo, and in attacks, anxiety and panic
disorders have been associated with vertigo in about 40-
50% of the patients. It has been suggested that interface
between vestibular dysfunction and anxiety is more than
just psychogenicity.


Recently, neurological basis for balance-anxiety /
panic disorders have been investigated in many studies.
Neuroanatomical basis, pharmacological links, the
relationships of neurotransmitters and therapeutical
efforts for the vestibular system and anxiety/panic
disorders have been evaluated in many reports.


The present study is a review about neuroanatomical and
neuropharmacological correlates of vestibular system and
anxiety/panic disorders.


Keywords: Vestibular system,vertigo, anxiety/panic
disorders, otonomical manifestations

Antidepressants and dizziness
Renato T. Ramos
University of São Paulo Medical School, São Paulo, Brazil


Despite several evidences supporting a close relationship
between dizziness and anxiety symptoms, the role of anti-
depressants in the treatment of such conditions remains
poorly explored. The high prevalence of dizziness during
serotonin reuptake inhibitors discontinuation syndrome and
the few reports suggesting efficacy of antidepressants in
treating some vestibular disorders justify a careful
investigation.


Neurophysiologic studies suggest possible focus of
investigation on mechanisms of drug action. Psychophysiologic
studies also suggest a possible role of antidepressant
drugs in improving balance control and cognitive functioning.


Controlled studies involving antidepressants with selective
action in different neurotransmitters systems are necessary
to elucidate the complex pathophysiologic mechanisms involving
emotional and balance control. For future researches, special
attention must be paid to the methodology of balance evaluation
and the interaction between posture control and cognitive
functioning.

with (strictly in anatomical sequence - not probability)

Some run through it. Others get shocked and become

Just heard of a guy that has to rehome his dog,
because the dog got caught right in the path of
the shock and will now not go near his person,

"I know this is a hard subject to bring up without
starting the whole cruelty thread again so I'll
state my opinion once and won't defend it further:
any method can be cruel for some dogs.


Even the slightest punishment was wrong for Cubbe at the
beginning, but we've come a long way since then.She trusts
us now as I mentioned in a recent post. Point is, she's been
rewarded for coming, but she's never been punished, even in
the mildest way, for not coming.


Is it time for that?

After talking with the vet yesterday and watching
Cubbe all day today, I'm convinced that the shaking
is behavioral, not physical. Naturally I'll continue
keeping an eye on her, but when I add everything
up, I don't see symptoms of anything neurological--
and the vet agrees.
