Breed Characteristics Generally, short-haired dog breeds require less grooming maintenance, which is a huge plus for busy families who are constantly on the go. Unlike long-haired breeds, a dog with short hair won’t need to have their coat trimmed, but they’ll still need to be brushed regularly. Some short-haired dog breeds are “hypoallergenic,” which means they can be better for individuals with allergies. Most short-haired dogs can also tolerate warmer temperatures since they don’t have long, heavy coats. The exception is brachycephalic (short-nosed) breeds like pugs, boxers, and bulldogs, who have a little bit of a harder time breathing. If you live somewhere that encounters frigid…

Comedians Will Ferrell and Jamie Foxx voice adorable canines in the upcoming summer comedy “Strays.” As the title suggests, “Strays” is the story of a pack of dogs who decide to get revenge against one of their former owners (Will Forte) for abandoning them. While I won’t dare spoil the method that those dogs select as an appropriate punishment, it should not be a spoiler to reveal that the underlying subject matter behind “Strays” is far from comical. Scientists agree that dogs feel love for their human companions; when dogs and cats are abandoned, they are left with a psychological trauma…

So here’s something that’s a little gross but super important for every dog parent to know—rat lungworm disease. It’s something your dog could accidentally get just by poking around the backyard.Rat lungworm disease caused by Angiostrongylus cantonensis is a parasite that starts its journey in rats. Rats poop out the larvae (yes, it’s as gross as it sounds), and then snails and slugs come along and eat that poop. Then dogs—doing their usual sniffing, licking, and munching—accidentally eat those infected snails or slugs. Sometimes they just lick toys or bowls that had snail slime on them and get infected.Once inside…

Experts from the University of Glasgow are developing an AI-powered robot which aims to help visually impaired people move more independently through museums, alongside shopping centres, hospitals and other public places. The university has partnered with industry and charities to develop the ‘RoboGuide’ prototype, which walks on four legs and can play spoken audio. It is hoped the completed robot will do a better job of navigating indoor settings, where signal coverage like GPS typically weakens. In December, the RoboGuide was tested for the first time at the Hunterian. Volunteers from FVSC, a community for those with visual or hearing…

If your pet’s too big to fit beneath the seat and VIP travel isn’t an option, your only choice on domestic airlines is to fly your pet in cargo. That always involves risk, no matter how good the airline’s track record or what DOT numbers indicate. Still, veterinarian David Landers, DVM, owner of AirVets Pet Relocation and former director-at-large at the nonprofit International Pet and Animal Transportation Association, says that “shipping a pet [in cargo] is very safe when the proper precautions are taken.”IN CARGO, WITH CARE?Animal advocates such as Mary Beth Melchior, founder and CEO of Where Is Jack?,…

According to Dr. Rebecca Greenstein, Veterinary Medical Advisor for Rover: “About 50% of Huskies have those classic, ice blue eyes that we’ve come to associate with this arctic breed.

Moon’s pup—yes, named Denali—was by his owner’s side during nearly a decade and a half of intense life changes. The film commemorates Moon and Denali’s life together: early years blissfully dirtbagging, Moon’s battle with colorectal cancer at 29, and Denali’s final days—Moon takes Denali to revisit favorite outdoor spots after the dog gets a cancer diagnosis, too.
