Agressie by honde- Karin Delport
Na aanleiding van baie vrae wat gevra is, het ek dit nodig geag om hierdie plasing te doen. Ek wil dit net vir almal op die hart druk dat dit nie die gewenste manier is om ‘n situasie te hanteer nie en beveel dit ten sterkste aan dat ‘n honde gedragskenner eerder ingeroep word! Honde gedragskenners het ‘ter plaatse’ die vermoë om die omstandighede baie beter op te som en reaksies (van die hond sowel as die ander gesinslede) te evalueer!
Net eers bietjie inligting wat leersaam is! Ons as mens moet altyd in gedagte hou dat honde nog steeds diere is met instink en al is hul deel van ons gesinne, moet hul respek vir die mens hê soos ons vir hul moet hê as ‘n dier! Soos ons met ‘n hond speel as baba, is hoe hy gaan speel/byt as hy groot is! In die trop speel hulle en leer mekaar se “soft spots” so hul doen dit nog steeds wanneer hul groot is. Maar, oor die grootmaak van veral groot ras honde later!
Die probleem wat ons nou baie kry op die blad is reeds volwasse honde wat probleme veroorsaak! Ek wil dit beklemtoon dat ons moet dink soos ‘n hond in ‘n trop en NIE verwag dat die hond moet dink soos ‘n mens nie! Soveel as wat ons dit wil hê, is dit nie moontlik nie en as daar meer as een hond is, vorm hulle makliker ‘n trop omdat hulle heeldag bymekaar is! Hulle reageer op instink en dinge wat hul geleer het tydens die grootmaak proses. Goeie voorbeelde van tropgedrag – meerkatte is seker die tropdiere wat hul hiërargie die beste intakt hou. En olifante – wow, hul is uitstekend! Ek sal die gedrag verduidelik saam met hoe dit toegepas moet word in gesinsverband.
1. Die leier eet eerste! As jy bv. ‘n bak kos neersit waar daar meer as een hond is, sal jou tropleier eerste eet en eet soveel as wat hy wil. Hy het nie ‘n saak of hy als opeet of nie! Het nie gewete nie, nie ‘n saak of daar oorbly vir die res nie! Die wat dit waag om nader te kom sal weg gegrom word en indien nie padgee nie, weg gebyt word! Daarom is dit so baie belangrik om kinders te leer om nie by honde se kos te pla nie! Jou kind is gewoond om by jul hond se kos te gaan, nou nader hy die vriende se hond se kosbak en word gebyt! Nie die hond se skuld nie (die kind is nie deel van ‘n ander hond se hiërargie nie). Dus, leer jou kind by die huis! Voor jy die kos neersit, maak of jy uit sy bak eet, DUS JY EET EERSTE! Die ideaal is dat die hele gesin eet en wanneer die borde in die wasbak gesit word, kry die honde kos – in die volgorde van hul range! Onthou jou klein ras hond kan nie die tropleier wees nie!
2. Die leier besit al die speelgoed ens. wat gegee word! Dus die leier sal die speelgoed (bv. bal) eerste vat en die res weg grom of byt! Baie gevegte onder honde begin met iets so simpel soos ‘n bal! Jy en die gesin moet altyd in beheer wees van al die speelgoed en julle stop ook die spel, moenie wag dat die hond bv. die bal ens. vat en daarmee gaan lê en vir homself toe-eien nie! Daar word gespeel vir, sê, 5 minute, dan word die spel gestop om na iets anders aan te beweeg. Geen “tug-of-war” toutrek spel word met ‘n groot ras hond gespeel nie – tensy jy seker maak dat jy altyd die spel wen en beheer van die speelding terugkry! Terwyl jul speel word jy as teenstander mooi opgesom, jou kragte word bepaal en vasgebrand in sy brein! Die dag met ‘n konfrontasie weet hy presies hoe sterk jy is en waar jou swak punte is en sal reguit gaan daarvoor!
3. Die leier slaap op die beste plek! Jy as leier slaap op die bed, dus sal die dominante hond ook daar wil slaap! Ek stel voor dat al die honde op die vloer in hul mandjie slaap – nie die klein ras op die bed en die groot ras op die vloer nie! Jy skep ‘n rede vir die groot ras hond om die kleintjie te byt! ‘n Hond wat vir homself ‘n bed toegeëien het sal selfs ‘n klein kind wat naby ‘sy’ bed kom, byt! Dus hy besit ook nie die bed nie! As jy regtig ‘n baie dominante hond het, dan verwyder jy al die honde uit jou slaapkamer, soos in ‘n ander vertrek of tot voor jou deur! Jul het seker agterkom ek praat nie van buite nie – jou hond hoort in jou huis, hy kan jou nie van buite die huis beskerm nie!
4. Die leier sal na die ander honde gaan en vra om ge”groom“ (gelek) te word. Indien ‘n ander hond sy persoonlike spasie inkom sonder sy toestemming sal hy grom of hap! Hy sal sy neus onder jou hand kom indruk sodat jy hom kan vryf – ons vryf hul outomaties en net daar domineer hy jou – so hy is jou baas! Jy as eienaar moet die dominante een wees! Dus as hy kom aandag vra moet jy hom ignoreer! Soveel dat jy vou jou arms en kyk weg! Ignoreer hom heeltemal; hy gaan heel moontlik sy poot op jou sit en jou hand probeer nader krap sodat jy sy kop kan krap! Moet nie vir hom kyk nie! Hy gaan vir jou ‘n puppy face gooi en jy gaan sag word (veral die vroue, ons is ‘suckers’ vir ‘puppy faces’!). Jy kan so ver gaan as om op te staan en op ‘n ander plek te gaan sit of selfs net te staan! As hy die gewoonte het om op jou sitplek te gaan sit die oomblik as jy opstaan, sê hy ook vir jou dat hy baie dominant is! As hy grom as jy hom wil af vat, het jy moeilikheid met ‘n groot ras! Dus jy moet sorg dat hy ‘n band met ‘n lang tou om die nek het sodat jy hom daar kan aftrek, sonder om met hom te praat en met jou rug na hom toe! Moenie oog kontak maak nie!
5. Die leier is die “first line of defence”! Al wat dit beteken, is wanneer die trop aangeval word, is die tropleier voor! Hy neem die leiding en begin die aanval! Gaan jou hond mal voor die deur en hou al die ander honde weg van die deur en probeer selfs vir jou weghou van die deur af, is dit jou teken dat daar ‘n probleem kan ontstaan – hy kan jou voor die deur byt of as jy die deur oopmaak, byt wie ook al aan die ander kant is! Dis hier waar opleiding so belangrik is om vir jou hond te kan sê BLY! Sit weer die band met ‘n lang tou aan en oefen dit. Jou hond loop nooit voor jou by ‘n deur uit nie! As dit ‘n baie groot swaar hond is, laat iemand jou help deur hom terug te hou dat jy eerste loop! Onthou om hom te prys vir die aksie! Onthou asb. om die ander onderdanige honde weg te hou, hul moet asseblief nie voor hom uit hardloop nie! Dan gee jy die indruk dat jy hul hoër ag as hy! As jy alleen is, oefen dit deur hom te blok om nie verby jou te loop nie!
Weereens wil ek jul vra – indien jul sit met ‘n dominante, aggressiewe hond – veral die groot rasse – om eerder ‘n professionele persoon se hulp in te roep! Nooit ooit word daar aan ‘n hond geslaan nie – agressie maak agressie wakker! Kry vir jou ‘n waterbottel wat spuit, nie sproei nie, om enige wangedrag mee te hanteer – geen geslanery nie, maar ferm optrede.

Mineralocorticoids and glucocorticoids are hormones normally produced by the adrenal glands, which are located near the kidneys. Both of these hormones are critical to the healthy functioning of the body, and an abnormal increase or decrease of either of these hormones can lead to serious health problems if not addressed in time. Hypoadrenocorticism is characterized by a deficient production of glucocorticoids and/or mineralocorticoids. Deficient production of both these hormones can cause a number of symptoms like weakness, dehydration, low blood pressure, depression, heart toxicity, vomiting, blood in faeces and weight loss.
You will need to give your veterinarian a thorough history of your dog’s health and onset of symptoms. Your veterinarian will perform a thorough physical exam on your dog, including routine laboratory tests, a complete blood count, biochemistry profile, and urinalysis. The complete blood count may reveal anaemia, an abnormally high number of eosinophils (a type of white blood cells that readily stains with eosin dye), and an increased number of lymphocytes (also a type of white blood cell) called (lymphocytosis).
Serum biochemistry testing may reveal an abnormally higher level of potassium, and an accumulation in the blood of urea – nitrogenous waste products that are usually excreted out of the body through the urine (azotemia). Other findings include lower levels of sodium (hyponatremia) and chloride (hypochloremia), increased levels of calcium (hypercalcemia), increased liver enzymes, including ALT and AST, and low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). The urinalysis may reveal a low concentration of urine. The definitive test for diagnosing this condition is by detecting the levels of cortisol in the body. Normally the adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) is produced by the pituitary gland, which then stimulates the adrenal glands to release their hormones. ACTH can be injected into the body to test the normal response functions of the adrenal glands. If your dog’s adrenal glands do not show an increase in the release of hormones after being given ACTH, then the diagnosis of hypoadrenocorticism will be confirmed. Visual diagnostic procedures, like X-ray and ultrasound, may reveal smaller than normal adrenal glands.

Ginger may even help counteract the decrease in metabolic rate that often occurs during weight loss. This suggests ginger may be useful for weight loss, and that’s not all.
According to research compiled by GreenMedInfo,16, 17 ginger may also be useful for:
Improving cognitive function in middle-aged women18 Protecting against respiratory viruses19 Reducing vertigo20
Enhancing fat digestion and absorption21 Protecting against toxic effects of environmental chemicals, such as parabens22 Helping prevent heart attacks23
Relieving arthritis pain as well as Indomethacin, an anti-inflammatory drug commonly used to treat it24 Preventing and treating nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)25 Drug-resistant bacterial and fungal infections26
Reducing damage and memory loss associated with small stroke27 Protecting against the DNA-damaging effects of radiation exposure28 Fighting bacterial diarrhea29
Ginger, slices, fresh 1.00 TBS (6.00 grams) Calories: 5 GI: very low
Native to south eastern Asia, a region whose cuisines still feature this wonderfully spicy herb, ginger has been renowned for millennia in many areas throughout the world. Ginger is mentioned in ancient Chinese, Indian and Middle Eastern writings, and has long been prized for its aromatic, culinary and medicinal properties. After the ancient Romans imported ginger from China almost two thousand years ago, its popularity in Europe remained centred in the Mediterranean region until the Middle Ages when its use spread throughout other countries. Although it was a very expensive spice, owing to the fact that it had to be imported from Asia, it was still in great demand. In an attempt to make it more available, Spanish explorers introduced ginger to the West Indies, Mexico and South America, and in the 16th century, these areas began exporting the precious herb back to Europe.
Whenever possible, choose fresh ginger over the dried form of the spice since it is not only superior in flavour but contains higher levels of gingerol as well as ginger’s active protease (it’s anti-inflammatory compound). Fresh ginger root is sold in the produce section of markets. When purchasing fresh ginger root, make sure it is firm, smooth and free of mould. Ginger is generally available in two forms, either young or mature. Mature ginger, the more widely available type, has a tough skin that requires peeling while young ginger, usually only available in Asian markets, does not need to be peeled.
To remove the skin from fresh mature ginger, peel with a paring knife. The ginger can then be sliced, minced or julienned. The taste that ginger imparts to a dish depends upon when it is added during the cooking process. Added at the beginning, it will lend a subtler flavour while added near the end, it will deliver a more pungent taste.

MY DIER SE GESONDHEID – ENSIEME
April 13, 2016 April 15, 2019 ~ Dipmaster	~ 4 Comments
Hier is gereeld vrae oor o.a. ‘Colloidal Silver’. Dit is nie net hierdie produk wat sy verskyning maak as oplossing nie, vele ander “wonder” produkte word ook as “oplossing” aanbeveel en aan diere toegedien.
Ook word in ongeloof blousel, petrol, brandewyn, Dettol, Disprins, Panado en Jeyes fluid as raad gegee. Produkte wat nie op die blad toegelaat word nie as gevolg van newe effekte en moontlike regsimplikasies.
En al word hierdie produkte nie toegedien nie, vele lede noem dat hul diere se bene seer is, diere is lusteloos, die asem stink ord r hul diere hardlywig is. Ook dat diere gedurig braak?
Wonder wie hulself ooit die vraag afvra: “Waar begin my troeteldiere se gesondheid?”
Dit begin dikwels by ‘goed’ wat ons verniet kry. Naas die uitdaging van parasiete en virusse, asook skadelike bakterie, begin jou troeteldier se gesondheid in hul hele spysverteringstelsel.
Beter beskryf: dit begin by die gehalte en gesondheid van die bakterie en mikrobes en ensieme binne hul spysverteringstelsels. Enige produk – hetsy antibakteries of antibioties – wat toegedien word wat hierdie ensieme se werkinge beperk en/of ontwrig, plaas jou dier se gesondheid op risiko. Antibakteriese of antibiotiese produkte kan geensins onderskei tussen goeie en slegte organismes nie. Lees dus en wees asseblief bewus van die “anti-” hierin.
Daar is twee hoofgroepe ensieme in jou dier se spysverteringstelsel:
Groep 1 is “Metaboliese ensieme”
Metaboliese ensieme funksioneer met die herstel van selgesondheid van organe soos die longe, lewer, hart, niere, milt en pankreas en natuurlik die vel (sien laaste punt).
Groep 2 is “Verteringsensieme”
Spysverteringsensieme werk hoofsaaklik in die spysverteringstelsel van jou dier.
Daar is hoofsaaklik 4 belangrike ensieme in die dier se spysverteringstelsel (die Engelse beskrywings hiervan word gegee ter wille van dié wat hul navorsing wil doen en dit wil gaan Google):
1. Protease – helps break down and digest protein
2. Amylase – helps break down and digest carbohydrates and starches
3. Lipase – helps break down and digest fat
4. Cellulase – helps break down fibre
Jou dier se gesondheid begin by hierdie ensieme, omdat hierdie ensieme die vermoë van die spysverteringstelsel ontsluit om vitamiene en minerale in die liggaam te kan opneem.
Wat gebeur as diere se “digestive enzymes” of spysverterings ensieme in die maag en dermkanale ontwrig word?
1. Die liggaam gaan neem/steel belangrike metaboliese ensieme weg van organe soos die lewer, longe, hart en niere, asook die vel, om kos te verteer – omdat dit ‘n hoë prioriteit is in die oorlewingsbehoefte van die dier se liggaam.
2. Dit plaas die immuunsisteem onder druk en maak dus die dier vatbaar vir vele siektes.
3. Dit bring onvoltooide vertering van voedsel mee en veroorsaak dat gedeeltelik verteerde partikels van die kos direk in die dier se bloedstroom opgeneem word vanuit die groter ingewande.
4. Die liggaam, op sy beurt, reageer negatief teenoor hierdie onverteerde partikels en hierdie veroorsaak in vele gevalle die rede waarom diere nie maksimale gesondheid geniet nie.
Hoekom is ensiem toevoegings en bewaring vir jou diere belangrik?
Omdat ensieme in elke lewende sel gevind word en kardinale rolle speel in elke lewende sel van die liggaam. Ensieme is klein proteien-partikels wat direk funksioneel is in die liggaam se metabolisasie, energie produksie, detoksifisering en miljoene ander biologiese prosesse in die liggaam.
Ensieme is nie net belangrik in die spysvertering van jou diere nie. Dit is ook belangrik vir die volgende funksies in jou diere se liggaam:
1. Die immuunsisteem
2. Die opname van vitamiene en minerale in die liggaam
3. Normale liggaamsgewig en voorkoming van “cravings” of kos behoeftes
4. Bevorder ‘n gesonde en funksionele asemhalingstelsel en bloedvatstelsel
5. Verminder kleinere voedsel-sensitiwiteite
6. Bevorder normale selfunksies en groei en herstel daarvan
7. Bevorder gesonde tande en tandvleis
8. Bevorder gesonde cholesterolvlakke
9. Voorkom “bloating”, gasse, winde, hartprobleme en konstipasie
10. Bevorder velgesondheid en herstel velprobleme en vel irritasies
11. Help met die voorsiening van energie
12. Voldoende opnames van voedsel en nutriente
13. Detoksifiseer die liggaam
14. Beter beweging van gewrigte en ander ledemate
Wanneer iemand vir jou ‘n aanbeveling doen oor medisyne, of aannames wil rugsteun met Literatuur, lees asseblief weer hierdie stuk aandagtig deur. Lees en dink bietjie wat dit aan jou dier se ensieme (gesondheid) maak. Raadpleeg ook ander wat omgee wat jy doen.
Gebruik medisyne / ‘medikasies’ net op kundige aanbeveling (en doen asseblief goeie navorsing, ter wille van jou dier) en neem dan verantwoordelikheid vir die stille skade wat jy doen/veroorsaak – dikwels heeltemal onwetend – om dit ook te herstel.

There is no genetic susceptibility for infection, although genetics may play a role in the progression and severity of the disease. The average age is 5 years at the time of diagnosis, and the likelihood of infection increases with age. FIV is a transmissible disease that occurs more often in males because of their tendency to be more aggressive, and because they are more likely to roam, thereby increasing their exposure to the virus.
• Diverse symptoms owing to the decreased ability to develop a normal immune response. Associated immunodeficiencies cannot be distinguished clinically from feline leukemia virus (FeLV).
• Recurrent minor illnesses, especially with upper respiratory and gastrointestinal signs.
• Mild to moderately enlarged lymph nodes.
• Inflammation of the gums of the mouth and/or the tissues surrounding and supporting the teeth is seen in 25% to 50% of cases.
• Upper respiratory tract disease is seen in 30% of cases – inflammation of the nose; inflammation of the moist tissues of the eye; inflammation of the cornea (the clear part of the eye, located in the front of the eyeball); often associated with feline herpes virus and calicivirus infections.
• Eye disease – inflammation of the front part of the eye, including the iris; disease of the eye in which the pressure within the eye is increased (glaucoma).
• Long-term (chronic) kidney insufficiency.
• Persistent diarrhoea seen in 10% to 20% of cases.
• Long-term, non-responsive, or recurrent infections of the external ear and skin resulting from bacterial or fungal infections.
• Fever and wasting – especially in later stage.
• Cancer (such as lymphoma, a type of cancer that develops from lymphoid tissue, including lymphocytes, a type of white-blood cell formed in lymphatic tissues throughout the body).
• Nervous system abnormalities – disruption of normal sleep patterns; behavioral changes (such as pacing and aggression); changes in vision and hearing; disorders usually affecting the nerves in the legs and paws.
• Cat-to-cat transmission; usually through bite wounds and scratches.
• Occasional transmission of the virus at the time of birth.
• Sexual transmission is uncommon, although FIV has been detected in semen.
Your veterinarian will perform a thorough physical exam on your cat, taking into account the background history of symptoms and possible incidents that might have precipitated this condition. A complete blood profile will be conducted, including a chemical blood profile, a complete blood count, and a urinalysis. Your doctor will need to rule out bacterial, viral, or fungal infections, and will also test for parasites and tumours before settling on a final diagnosis
Unless your cat is severely dehydrated, it will be treated on an outpatient basis. Your veterinarian will first work to manage any secondary infections. While secondary infections will not usually cause disease, your cat’s weakened immune system will give them entrée and they will cause further complications in your cat’s overall health. Surgery may be necessary for dealing with infected teeth and for the removal of tumours. A special diet plan may also need to be put into place.
Within 4.5 to 6 years after the time of infections, about 20% of cats die; however, over 50% will remain without clinical signs of the disease. In the late stages of the disease, when wasting and frequent infections are most likely to occur, life expectancy is less than a year. Inflammation of the gums and mouth may not respond to treatment or may be difficult to treat.
In order to prevent this disease from occurring in the first place, you should vaccinate your cat against the virus, and protect your cat from coming into contact with cats that are FIV positive. You will also want to quarantine and test new cats that are coming into your household until you are sure that they are free of the virus. It is important to note that some cats will test positive for FIV if they are carriers, although they may never have symptoms of the virus, and that cats that have been vaccinated against the virus will test positive for it even though they do not carry it. Euthanasia is not normally called for when a cat has tested positive in part because of these reasons. If your cat has tested positive you will need to talk to your veterinarian about what to do to prevent possible transmission to other cats, and what symptoms to be watchful for, should they occur.
