German Shorthaired Pointer: Temperament, Care, Exercise & Health

Image
The German Shorthaired Pointer is an intelligent, athletic and affectionate sporting dog developed to work closely with people. Commonly called the GSP, this versatile breed can point, track and retrieve game on both land and water. German Shorthaired Pointers are admired for their elegant appearance, enthusiasm and devotion to their families. However, they are also extremely energetic working dogs. A GSP needs substantial daily exercise, consistent training, mental stimulation and close human companionship.

This material then can become hardened and calcified, which lessens its shock-absorption ability. Pressure can cause this hardened substance to explode or bulge into the spinal canal nearby, where the spinal cord is located. This is the process that is known as herniation. This can result in pain and elevate to feeling loss or paralysis. Treatment Options for Her...

Dogs join Middlesex University staff to help students with exam stress and homesickness

The dogs joined the Middlesex University to help students with the stress associated with the exam and nostalgia. Five Labrador students were trained as "dog teaching assistants" to reduce anxiety and prevent students from dropping out of school. The dogs received their identification credentials to ensure that they were an integral part of the university's teaching and welfare team. "It's hard to describe the effect of having a dog lying in a corner of the classroom," said Fiona Suthers, head of clinical skills at the university. "It's amazing and we are very interested in continuing and expanding what we are doing." This comes after the University of East Anglia recently offered students the opportunity to take the dog for a walk in an attempt to deal with stress during the exam season. Last month, Sir Anthony Seldon, vice president of Buckingham University, said that every school should have a dog or other pet t...
