    @triodug @sjw This was not my photo. But we have had people bring in coyotes or suspect coyotes before. In the case of the photo the DVM did turn them away.

    While licensed vets are absolutely allowed to work on wild animals, many do not feel comfortable doing so (not specialized, might miss signs of illness, may not be rabies vaccinated, also a whole different range of behaviors to look out for). I've only met one small animal vet who would work with wild animals so far, and he's an outlier as he's fuckin nuts and up for anything.

    If anyone ever does plan on getting a wild animal as a pet (including those 'domestic' foxes) you gotta find a vet that will handle that wild animal first, as they are notoriously difficult to find. Most GP vets won't touch them. Most wildlife vets work for the government or non profits and don't have a practice to see clients (making exams and such illegal).

    @sjw May be surprised how often people take in a stray puppy to find out it's a coyote. Pic related came in to a vet office for a visit, no idea their dog was a coyote.
    Fun fact: the US does not recognize rabies vaccines being effective in coyotes or wolves. I recommend rabies vaccine anyway, but this means that if the dog bites someone even if UTD on rabies, it may have to be quarantined or tested.

    PUPPY BOWL PUPPY BOWL PUPPY BOWL

    This time we finally have a roster out ahead of time, so lets get those predictions coming through. Hold onto them, we'll see how y'all did later.

    It is 100% a popularity contest, it is NOT based on the puppy's actual performance. So keep that in mind.

    Puppy bowl is a show aired alongside the Super Bowl where they have different rescues bring forward puppies that are available for adoption to play on a field with a football toy and some goal posts. It's pretty cute. The idea of it is to get the puppies adopted, and raise awareness for shelter animals.

    @Moon @vriska As someone who actually NEEDS a Facebook account to know when my area is on a boil water notice or under a burn ban, I can understand the sentiment. I thought that argument was unsound until I drank dirty water for 2 days because the announcement was on a Facebook page :aquaDisgust:

    @Moon @vix @redneonglow @1iceloops123 Someone had pointed out that it's the election season coming up which may have affected him wanting to be associated with NAS or Fedi in general.

    Is NAS already nuked tho? That must really suck for users who have no idea what's going on and try to log in after a few days or weeks.

    We will soon be seeing a change to pet food labeling, the first big change we've seen in 40 years.

    The Association of American Feed Control Officials (AAFCO), a non-profit that establishes animal feed regulations, will be adding some new rules as a part of their Pet Food Label Modernization Project.

    1) Of the things that you would care about, the Nutrition Fact Box will now seem more familiar, as it will resemble the nutrition fact box for humans. This was done to help ease confusion.
    They made rules that the information has to be boxed off and all in clearly visible colors. There's a lot of small changes to make this happen, if you're interested you can check the link below.

    2) There will now be a Statement of Intended Use required on all edibles, and there is now a specific area on the package where this information is displayed.
    Intended use is referred to whether the product is a treat, food mixer, additive, supplement, veterinary diet, complete food (think everyday pet food), and the intended lifestage (puppy, adult, senior, all).
    Normally this information can be anywhere on the bag/can/box and it can be difficult to find or interpret due to it. Many times, this information won't be on the product at all, in which case you are supposed to assume it is not a complete diet and use it as a treat. Now it will be required on the lower third of the label.

    3) An Ingredient Statement was made to clarify naming conventions, and they added a requirement for total carb % and Dietary Fiber %.
    The term 'Meat By-product' has long been a debated topic. They have helped clear some confusion by adding that meat or meat by-product is derived from cow, pig, sheep, goat, or any combo of those. Fish, fish by-product, or fish meal is used for ingredients that may include fish without describing the type of fish. Poultry or poultry meal is for duck, turkey, chicken, geese, guineas, ratites, squabs, or any combo of them. So no more of the "chicken meal isn't actually chicken" debate.
    Sugar can also only mean sugar from sugar cane or sugar beets - I'm glad to hear this as there has been controversy of naming xylitol 'Birch Sugar' which is toxic to dogs.
    A big change here is that they are also requiring total carbs and fiber; previously they were only required to account for crude fiber, which is less accurate as it is a calculation method for assessing fiber content. This will give us a better idea of the actual carb and fiber content of these pet foods, and I expect it to make a significant difference in the vet industry in the coming years.
    They have also tightened down on their organic claims. With the pet food industry, organic claims were like the wild, wild west. Now, organic ingredients may be identified with the word 'organic' or with an asterisk, and the description of the organic ingredient following below the ingredient statement.

    4) Lastly, they added handling and storage instructions must be added to the package, under the header 'HANDLING AND STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS'. I have a feeling this was added due to the raw diet craze. They even added handy dandy graphics for pet companies to use (see pic).

    They are advising municipalities giving pet food companies 6 years from 1/1/2024 before actually enforcing these regulations. While bigger companies probably already know their total carb and fiber content and can switch out package design rapidly, smaller companies are going to have to do extensive lab grade tests with their food to find out nutritional details and will likely need some time to reconfigure their labels.

    I'd love to hear if ya'll start to see any of these changes in your pet food labels!

    To check out more detailed view of the changes;

    I hate doodle breeders. So every day I will post another doodle dog breed until I run out of them. Feel free to ask me why I hate the people that breed doodles any time.

    Westiepoo (West Highland White Terrier + Poodle) the Westie is one of those breeds so old that their exact origin is still disputed. But nah lets doodle them too! Westies are high strung terriers, and that mixed with the clinginess of the toy poodle tends to not create the best pet. They also mainly come in white, which bores people, so they aren't the most popular doodle.

    I'll be thinking of all the veterinary medicine professionals in the UK these coming months.

    While I never had to go through a ban, I did live in close proximity to two places that enacted bans/'quasi' bans and saw the aftermath. I don't shy away from heavy topics. If you need someone to vent or talk to, feel free to hit me up.❤️

    Whoodle (Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier + Poodle) Wheatens are getting more and more popular, being touted as another hypoallergenic breed. However it is still a terrier, and thus wound up like one. Mixed with the high intelligence of a poodle and you end up with disastrous results.

    I am unsure what the idea was here with mixing 2 breeds believed to by hypoallergenic, with very different personalities. Surely the combo of different hair has now created an 'un-hypoallergenic' breed.
