It is nearly impossible to tell if a dog has fever without taking his temperature first. One of the best outer signs that your dog may not be feeling well nor has fever is lethargy, meaning that he is just lying around not wanting to play, drink or eat.
If your dog’s temperature is over 104 degrees, you will need to get him to the vet. If it is below 104 degrees, keep him cool and hydrated.
If you are taking the temperature with a mercury thermometer, you will need to leave it in approximately three to four minutes before reading it.
To read the thermometer, gently slide it out of the rectum and wipe the inserted end off with either a baby wipe or a dry tissue.
Have someone assist you in keeping your dog still. If he is not feeling well, he may be more prone to biting.
If you are taking his temperature with a mercury thermometer, you will have to shake the mercury down. If you are using an electronic thermometer, it should be ready to go.
After reading the thermometer, wipe it down with an alcohol pad or a germicide wipe to ensure that it is clean.
Slowly and gently lift your dog’s tail to insert the lubricated end of the thermometer right inside of his rectum.

A master storyteller continues the charming account of his experiences as veterinarian in rural Yorkshire. And although there are more cats and dogs as patients than before, there are plenty of large farm animals to deal with, frequently during the middle of the night. The detailed but succinct descriptions of people, places, and animals are a delight. Herriot’s unusual ability to identify individual characters, both human and four-legged, brings them to life–even for the most urban American. The endearing strand weaving all episodes together is the constant devotion of man to animal and animal to man. Chapters are short, the pace is rapid, and the stories are very easy to read–perfect for unmotivated readers. The author’s keen sense of humor will bring smiles to the faces of YAs, particularly when he tells a joke on himself. Nonfiction at its most entertaining best.
The late Alf Wight aka James Herriot left a legacy of books that excites readers to this day (and I presume will do so for decades more.) His gentle, self-deprecating style of humor and the portraits of the Yorkshire Dales farmers and country people are amusing and interesting.
The four books, named after a hymn "All Creatures Great and Small" are joined by this fifth volume with similar stories. James (as Alf called himself) now has his own practice in Skeldale House, is married with two kids. The stories are very similar to the first four, with goof-ups, miracles, and funny tales. Somehow, these stories are not quite as hilarious as the first set, possibly because Mr. Herriot had written up most of the good stuff, or to represent the seriousness of raising two kids and having his own practice and being a settled man rather than a raw youth just out on his own. Nonetheless, if you lapped up all the "Creature" books, as I did, and you mourn the loss of Dr. Wight, who passed away in the 90’s, then you will want to read these stories and vicariously enjoy more of the daily life of a country vet.

- How to Train a Big Dog
June 6, 2008, category: Videodog tipstutorials, Dog Obedience dog tips Dog Training Tips pet tips Train Big Dog
Training a big dog is very important. When your 120-pound dog jumps on your 90-year-old Great Aunt Gilbert it can cause big problems. A big dog also has a different set of problems than someone who has an 8-pound teacup poodle. A big dog can injure you when out for a walk, they can destroy thousands of dollars worth of household goods and more. In this article you’ll discover some important steps to follow to get your big dog under control and listening to your commands.
The first step to training your big dog has nothing to do with training. The first step is to make sure your big dog gets enough exercise. About 80 percent of the big dogs that I help train have so much pent-up energy that they can’t focus and have a hard time doing obedience.
When your dog has enough exercise it is much easier for your dog to live with you and it is much easier for you to live with your dog. When your big dog has had enough exercise it will be easier to train and many behavior problems will go away. A good quote to remember is: “The only good dog is a tired dog.”
Once your big dog is getting enough exercise you need to establish leadership. Leadership is extremely important. The most important part of having a big dog is making sure that he never becomes aggressive. Dogs resolve conflict by using aggression. There can’t be any conflict when you ask your dog to get off the couch, to drop a chicken bone that you may have dropped, to allow you to check his ears and paws .
Crate train your big dog. At some point in your dog’s life they will have to go to a groomer, a vet or travel. This will require your dog to go into a crate. Crate training can be done by associating the crate in a positive way. Tossing in your dog’s toys and treats and putting the food bowl in the back of the crate are all things that you can do to get your dog to like the crate.
Having a back tie in your house can also help when company comes over or you are too busy to keep an eye on your dog. A back tie is a simple leash secured to a very solid wall. A typical back tie would be an eye hook screwed into a very sturdy wall with a leash attached to it.
The big mistake some trainers make is thinking that a big dog needs to be trained with harsh, physical methods. One of the reasons dogs are so aggressive in the United States is from the training methods used. Constantly inflicting pain on a dog by using a choke, prong or electronic collar will take its toll on the dog.
There is only so much punishment any living animal can take before they snap, and that is exactly what is happening with dogs today. Punishment can be a very effective way to change behavior, but overdone it leads to aggression.
The best way to train your big dog is to use positive methods. Train your dog by reinforcing behaviors. The last thing you want is a big dog that becomes aggressive. Some important commands to teach are sit, down, stand, stay, walk on leash and come. (Eric Letendre)
