Newly Discovered Photo of The World’s Most Loyal Dog Hachiko Shows Him Waiting For His Human

August 10, 2015

It’s amazing that 100 years after Hachiko’s passing, historians are still discovering new things about Japan’s most famous dog. A photograph of the devoted dog has been found – one that provides a view into the dog’s heartbreaking vigil.

The rare photograph shows Hachiko relaxing alone at Shibuya Station. According to the Japan News, the photo was taken around 1934 by the late Isamu Yamamoto, a former bank employee who lived in the Sarugakucho district in Shibuya Ward, Tokyo. Only a few photos exist of the now legendary dog considered to be the world’s most loyal dog.

Hachiko was born on a farm in 1923. He was adopted by Professor Hidesaburo Ueno, a professor of agriculture at the University of Tokyo, who was a loving man. Every day, Ueno and Hachi would walk to the Shibuya train station, where the professor would pet Hachiko goodbye and board the train.

The Akita would patiently wait at the station for Ueno to return. While waiting, shopkeepers and station workers would look after him, giving him snacks and saying ‘hello’ to the friendly dog.

This continued for several years until one day, Ueno did not return from work. He had suffered a brain hemorrhage and passed away. Hachi did not know this, and continued to wait. Hachi never gave up hope that his beloved owner would return on the train. Every afternoon, when Ueno’s train was due to arrive, Hachi would appear at the train station and look for him.

The newly found photograph provides another glimpse into the Akita’s daily life at the station. Hachi looks relaxed but alert, his head up and scanning the passers-by. The photo was taken a year before he died.

Hachi’s vigil continued on for many years, 10 to be exact, until the morning of March 8, 1935, when Hachiko was found dead near Shibuya Station. He had passed away from natural causes.

How to Brush Your Dog’s Teeth and Prevent Periodontal Disease

January 5, 2018

Just like people, dogs need their teeth brushed regularly to maintain their overall health. If a dog’s teeth are not kept clean, he/she can develop many medical complications that can lead to disease that can be life threatening.

As periodontal disease affects 85% of dogs over four years old, brushing your dog’s teeth should be a regular activity in maintaining your dog’s overall health and part of their regular daily routine as much as eating, exercise and grooming are. Here are some tips for keeping your dog’s teeth in good shape.

Check Your Dog’s Gums and Teeth Regularly

Once a week, check your dog’s mouth. Lift his/her lips to examine the teeth and gums. The gums should be pink, not white or red, and should show no signs of swelling. Teeth should be clean, without any brownish tartar. And your dog’s mouth should not have any extreme odor. If your dog has inflamed gums that are red and swollen and has bad breath, he/she probably has gingivitis.

Thankfully, it is reversible with regular teeth cleanings. However, if the gingivitis is really bad and not treated, periodontal disease will likely result.

A heartbreaking photo of a German Shepherd in a cemetery went viral in April 2015 and was shared by animal lovers all over the world. The dog, curled up in the crevice, was thought to be a loyal dog grieving for her deceased owner. It turns out, this was not the dog’s story at all. Her story is still a heartbreaking one, but one that has a happy ending!

The dog was not grieving for a lost loved one, but rather she’s a homeless dog, who was looking for a safe place to care for her babies!

Hospice Dog’s Tender Care Of Patient Touches Hearts

August 28, 2015

2015

JJ knows just what to do to comfort her patients and her patients love her for it. In the viral video below, JJ, who is trained as a certified therapy dog, visits a woman in her bed at Samaritan Evergreen Hospice House in Albany, Oregon. The gentle Golden Retriever nudges the woman’s hand and licks it as a poem by Yeats plays in the background.

“This is a lady who has very few people to visit her. She cannot see and often does not wake up, but she did like having her hand on my fur,” JJ “wrote” on her Facebook page. “She was very calm during my visit…I was very insistent to have her touch me, more so than usual. We fell asleep later with her hand splayed on my head, both of us snoring (but no proof of that!) I sure can be silly at times, but I also know when to be quiet and present. Her caregivers were very appreciative when they saw this video.”

JJ cares for hospice patients along with her “boss lady”, registered nurse Tracy Calhoun. JJ helps keep patients calm or helps distract a person to decrease their agitation when they are given medications. To her many fans who were touched by the video, JJ wrote, “Apologies to those who got teary watching the video, it comes with the territory here sometimes.”

Dog Lovers Warned to Avoid Feeding Dogs Sugarless Peanut Butter

November 13, 2017

One of the most popular treats for dogs is peanut butter! Not only is the nutty spread included in many dog treat recipes, it is oftentimes licked straight off the spoon.

However, pet parents are being cautioned to be vigilant when purchasing jars of peanut butter because of a dangerous ingredient being included in several brands – xylitol.

The artificial sweetener is extremely dangerous to dogs and only small amounts can cause severe drops in blood sugar levels (hypoglycaemia), liver failure and death. One family sadly discovered this recently, when their pet ate sugarless gum.

According to Preventative Vet, they recently discovered several brands making sugar-free peanut butter but include xylitol as an additive. The website indicated that Nuts ’N More and Krush Nutrition’s Nutty By Nature both have peanut butter products that contain the canine-unfriendly additive and that there are potentially other brands that have sugar-free peanut butter that contain xylitol.

Please read the ingredients label on peanut butter to ensure that xylitol is not one of them!

Ingesting just small amounts of xylitol can seriously harm a dog. As little as 0.1 gram (g) of xylitol per kilogram (kg) of body weight (0.1 g/kg) can cause a rapid drop in a dog’s blood sugar with potentially fatal consequences.

Another solution to shopping around is to make your own peanut butter. It’s easy and simple to make. The video below shows how to make it, but you’ll probably want to eliminate the salt and honey for your dog.

Please share this important information with fellow dog lovers!
