No, your cows do not need rain sheets. Cows are by nature used to standing out in the elements and do well when there’s rain. They know to instinctively seek shelter in the trees or in a barn if the rain is too heavy or if there is a lot of wind. For this reason it’s important to make sure your cows have access to shelter. Either provide them with a run in area in the pasture or ensure they have pasture land that includes plenty of trees. During the winter months you may need to bring your cows into a barn because of cold temperatures, but this is not usually necessary for periods of rain in the spring and summer. Sheets are not necessary at all unless you have show cows that need to be kept clean or if you have an elderly cow that your vet Marietta, GA has

There are few things a cat does that are more annoying than scratching the furniture. You may be wondering about the best way to punish a feline for this behavior, but the answer is not punishing your cat at all.
Negative reinforcement doesn’t work with cats. It just teaches them to scratch the furniture when you aren’t around! Instead, you have to focus on positive reinforcement.
Provide your pet with plenty of acceptable things to scratch, like cat trees. Then, when your furry friend goes to town on one of the cat trees in the house, you can provide him with a treat and a pat on the head. Chances are,

Being afraid of the thunder is a common occurrence in pets like the cat. Cats often experience times of anxiety and panic during loud thunderstorms. If your cat is pacing around the house during a thunderstorm then she may be anxious and uneasy because of the loud sounds. Help your cat to remain calm by providing her with a safe, comfortable hide-a-way. For instance, fill her cat house with blankets and toys so that she’ll want to stay in the house more often. She’ll come to rely on the house as her safety point and learn to go there when the thunder comes. You may also want to put a Thunder Shirt on your cat. This helps give her the sense of security and peace. If your cat is still anxious, try talking to her, holding her or grooming her. For other options, talk with your Woodbridge, VA vet.

Does your dog need to lose weight? A good indication is if you can no longer see your dog’s waist when looking at him from above. You can also weigh him on the scale. Weigh yourself to get your weight. Hold your dog and then weigh again. Subtract the two for your dog’s weight. Consult your dog’s breed weight range online or check with your vet to see if your dog is overweight. If the dog is overweight, you can cut down on the amount of food you serve at each meal. You can also start your dog on an exercise regimen or up his current exercise routine a little bit at a time. If you feed your dog treats, cut back on what you feed him, how much and when you feed him. You may need to keep a food journal. Consult with your animal hospital Dale City, VA for more tips.
