Article: There are a number of conditions that could cause hypertension in dogs. Some, like obesity, can be treated with dietary and lifestyle changes. Others may require medication or even surgery to treat. Some common conditions that can cause high blood pressure include: chronic renal disease glomerular disease endocrine disease Cushing's disease diabetes mellitus acromegaly adrenal tumor polycythemia obesity Your dog's nutrition doesn't directly cause any health conditions that would lead to high blood pressure. However, a diet high in fat may cause your dog to become obese, which is a common cause of hypertension. Check the nutritional label on your dog's food and any treats you commonly give your pet. Look for foods that are low in fat. You may want to consider restricting your dog's sodium intake as well. Give your dog plenty of exercise. Take your dog for at least one 30 minute walk each day, but be sure to bring plenty of water for your pet. Consider measuring and restricting how much food you give your dog with each meal. You can find charts that will help you determine your dog's ideal caloric intake by searching online. If your dog has been diagnosed with high blood pressure, you'll need to schedule regular checkups with your veterinarian. Your vet will need to monitor your dog's progress over time and may recommend further dietary changes or medication. Dogs with high blood pressure should have their blood pressure checked by a vet every few months. Your vet may recommend one or more medications, either to dilate the blood vessels (to lower your pet's blood pressure) or to treat the underlying condition causing hypertension. Which medication your vet recommends will depend on how high your pet's blood pressure is and what underlying condition(s) your dog has.

Problem: Article: Creating a safety plan is important to both keeping yourself out of danger and preventing future abuse. Your plan should include warning signs, how to escape, places to go, and people to talk to. Write down the plan. It is difficult to keep this information in your head, so as you go about making your plan make sure you write down each step. If you feel unsafe or believe that abuse is about to occur, engage your safety plan immediately. It is important to know early if an abusive situation is likely to occur so that you can remain safe, take action or get away. Some situations that are often associated with abuse include: alcohol and/or drug use, heightened anger or stress, relationship issues, and domestic violence. However, if you feel that you are in imminent danger, you need to escape the situation, get to a phone, and call emergency services. Remember that anger is okay, but violence or abuse is never okay. You do not deserve to be abused and if it is about to occur it is important that you keep yourself safe from abuse or harm. Identify possible situations that may occur based on what has happened in the past (type of and nature of abuse). Identify common places in which the abuse may occur. If abuse has happened in a particular room, make sure you have an easy exit out of that room (whether it be a door, window, etc). Make sure there are no pieces of furniture or other objects that may get in your way. Do not attempt to hide in your own home. This can cause you to get stuck somewhere and not be able to get away to a safe place. Identify escape routes out of your home. Many apartment buildings have fire escape plan posted; you can learn the fastest way to exit your building. Use stairs instead of the elevator. Understand how to unlock windows and doors, as well as where important keys are to your home. Identify specific safe places to go to if you are in danger such as a neighbor or friend's house. Make sure these individuals are in on your plan and note when they are usually home vs. when they are not. Identify the fastest and safest way to get to your safe place. If you can run, do so. If you have easy access to transportation that you are legally allowed to operate, use it (car, skateboard, bike, etc). Have several back up plans in case you cannot go to your specific safe place. For example, identify close public places that are open 24 hours or have easy phone access. Identify safe individuals such as close friends and family members who will keep you away from harm or intervene if you are in trouble. Keep important phone numbers such as emergency contacts on you at all times. When you get to your safe place you can call for additional help (emergency services or your local police station) if needed.
Summary: Make a plan to protect yourself. Identify warning signs. Plan how to get away. Plan where to go. Plan who to talk to.

Bonsai trees, like all trees and plants, react to the change in seasons. If you're keeping a bonsai tree outside, it will have an even stronger reaction to the change in temperature, sunlight, and the amount of rainfall in the region. In some regions there are four distinct seasons, and in others the seasonal changes are more subtle. In any case, understand the way your tree species reacts to the seasons in your region, and let that information guide the way you care for it. Trees lay dormant during the winter; they aren't producing leaves or growing, so they don't use as much nutrition. During this season, watering the tree is about the only care it needs. Avoid trimming it too much, since it won't be able to replace the depleted nutrients until spring. In spring, trees begin using the nutrients they stored during the winter to sprout new leaves and grow. Since your tree is in transition during this time of year, it's a good time to repot the plant (adding extra nutrients to the soil) and begin trimming. Trees continue to grow during the summer, using up the rest of their stored nutrients. Be sure to water yours well during this period of time. In the fall, tree growth slows, and the nutrients begin accumulating again. This is a good time for both trimming and repotting. Your bonsai tree's light needs depends on the species and your climate, but most will thrive in a location that receives morning sun. Turn the tree 90 degrees every few days so all of the tree foliage can receive an equal amount of light. Indoor trees may need a light shade cloth over the window during hot, bright summer months. During the summer, it's fine for the tree to spend the majority of time outside. Bring it inside overnight when temperatures dip below about 40F (4C). In preparation for the winter, get your tree acclimated to spending more time indoors by moving it inside for a few hours at a time, and increasing the time it spends indoors every day until you bring it inside entirely. Fertilize the tree with a special fertilizer meant to keep bonsai trees healthy. When the soil begins to look dusty or dry, water the bonsai. The exact watering frequency depends on the tree species and the season. You may need to provide a little water every day during the summer, but only water once every few days during cold winter months.
