1076. What Your Dog Isn't Telling You




Animal Radio® show

Summary: Dogs and cats generally don’t exhibit pain. This is a trait designed mostly to protect themselves in the wild. However, research now shows that when they are alone in a room they do show signs of pain, until someone enters the room. Dr. Annie Forslund tells us how to recognize pain in our pets. Also, over 3000 volunteer pilots fly 250 mile jaunts to bring adoptive animals to new homes or hospitals. This non-profit agency regularly moves animals from dogs and cats to donkeys. Kathleen Quinn Charleston explains the Pilots n’ Paws mission. Also, great invention or insane idea? You decide if Johnny Dumas has a sensible solution to prevent dogs from attacking your dog. He’s designed a spike-filled coat of armor that protects the vital organs against bites.
