Article: Towel drying is a little more work than using a chamois leather because the towel will become heavy and soggy when it soaks up the water. Nevertheless, this method works, and you likely already own towels. Replace each towel as it becomes wet. The larger the dog, the larger the towels you will need. As the towel becomes too wet to absorb any more water from the dog's coat, replace it with a new, dry towel.

Towel dry the dog. Have several towels handy. Replace the towel.
Article: Bending your knees will help you to absorb any bumps or wakes that the boat traverses, helping you maintain balance and continue standing. Do not try to pull yourself forward or maintain balance by pulling on the rope. You should simply allow the rope to continue pulling you forward. Lean back slightly with your hips forming a straight line with your shoulders. You can push your hips slightly forward and up towards the handle but make sure the skis stay directly beneath you. Allowing the skis to move to far out in front of you will cause you to fall backwards. Leaning forward will cause the skis to move behind you and make you fall forward. Many skiers tend to hold their breaths while skiing but it is important to breathe naturally. Normal breathing will reduce fatigue and prevent you from getting overly tired. Try turning slightly by putting more pressure on the inside edge of the ski on the opposite side of where you want to go. Stay inside the wake for now. For example, you will push down on the inside edge of the ski with your left leg and lean slightly to the right and away from the boat to move to the right. At the same time you can lift up slightly with your right foot to help you turn. Make sure you keep proper positioning with your knees bent and arms straight in front of you while you turn. Make a turn to either side and cross the wakes by turning your skis at a sharp angle to the wake. Keep pressure on your ski closest to the boat until you are completely outside the wake. Keep your knees bent to absorb the shock. If you try to cross with one ski at a time, you will fall. Make sure you cross at a sharp angle to the wake with both skis at the same time. Going over the wake should be quite quick. If you try to go slowly, you will fall. Keep your arms straight in front of you while crossing the wake. Pulling on the handle is a common mistake made by beginners and can also cause you to lose your balance and fall.

Keep your knees bent at all times. Keep your arms straight, letting the boat pull you forward. Lean back at all times to maintain proper positioning. Breathe naturally. Try turning slightly once you are comfortable skiing straight forward. Attempt to go outside the wake once you are comfortable turning within the wake.
Article: These drugs are the most commonly prescribed treatment when it comes to atrial fibrillation because the control your heartbeat and get rid of your irregular pulses. This medication changes the amount of electrolytes that are found in your heart in order to control your heart's beat. There are tons of different kinds of antiarrhythmic medications out there but the two most commonly prescribed kinds include: Beta-blockers: As the name suggests, this medication blocks the beta receptors (things that control your heart's activity) in your heart so that your heart rate decreases. Common beta-blockers include metoprolol, atenolol, carvedilol, and propranolol. Calcium channel blockers: These drugs act by blocking the calcium channels in the heart muscles. By doing so, these drugs also decrease the heart rate. Diltiazem and verapamil are examples of this group of antiarrhythmic drugs. Anticoagulants are also referred to as "blood thinners" and they do just that--thin your blood. When your blood becomes less thick, there is a lot less chance that a blood clot will develop. When you develop atrial fibrillation, your blood isn't properly pumped out of your heart, meaning that some of the blood gets left behind. The blood that remains in your heart increases your chances of developing a blood clot. Aspirin is the most common form anticoagulant. While you can get it over-the-counter, you should still talk to your doctor before starting to take aspirin when you have atrial fibrillation. Warfarin is another blood thinner, but this one is prescribed rather than over-the-counter. Talk to your doctor about the pros and cons of choosing between warfarin and aspirin. While this may sound scary, this is actually a very standard way to bring the heart back to a normal, rhythmic beat. During this treatment, pads that conduct electricity would be put on your chest. The doctor would then turn the electricity current up to a low level, essentially shocking your heart into its regular beat. Surgery is the very last treatment option and will only be considered if your condition gets worse after all of the other treatments have been tried. The surgical procedure, which is referred to as the Maze procedure, creates insulation for your heart so that the electricity in your heart runs in a straighter, normal route. Some doctors may recommend a catheter, or pacemaker, surgery instead of the Maze procedure. If this is the case, you would get a catheter placed in your heart that would regulate your heart's beat.
