Whistleblower: Minn. veterinarians giving three-year rabies vaccine every two years. Spot hates the veterinarian’s needle, but responsible owners bring in their dogs for rabies vaccinations as often as their vet suggests.
Many veterinarians say that’s every two years, even though the rabies vaccine is active for three years beyond the initial inoculation.

Those concerns prompted the Minnesota Board of Veterinary Medicine in 2011 to strongly recommend that vets follow manufacturers’ immunity labels. Some veterinarians stand by the two-year vaccination schedules, however.

Approval seeking or attention seeking? Jumping up is nearly always viewed, by both positive and negative trainers as A Major Sin.
It certainly rates near the top of the list of most dog owners as an undesirable behaviour. The behaviour can vary from a flying, direct midriff punch, scratching your legs, or eye level shoulder blasts. But if we could empty our minds of the traditional view that This Is a Bad Thing, we may begin to see the behaviour as a sign or symptom of an underlying need that is being dismissed. Often jumping up is viewed as “attention seeking”, which expert advice tell us needs suppression as opposed to attention. The No-Pull Debate. Recently, WDJ received a letter from Christine Zink, DVM, PhD, DACVP, DACVSMR, who was concerned about the photo in WDJ (on the cover, no less!)
Of a jogger whose dog, running alongside, was wearing a front-clip-type harness.

It should come as no surprise that there is quite a difference between the scientific literature about animal (and dog) behavior and popular literature on dog training. It’s still fairly difficult for the average dog trainer to access the scientific literature.

Being able to read complete papers usually requires journal subscriptions, membership in scientific societies, or purchasing individual articles, all of which can be quite costly. The secondary literature is comprised of articles that cite, or refer back to the original research. Review papers often do this as do many popular or applied articles.
