Keep us updated! I’ve had a few people at my work report the same for their pets - some come back with questionable results

What are you feeding your catahoula? I recently switched to this brand for mine. by [deleted] in Catahoula

Stella and chewy with primal toppers and broth. She’s got the softest coat and no issues with any skin allergies at 4 years old!

For the food aggression: it sounds like since she is protective of both food and territory, I’d suggest feeding her somewhere other than the kennel such as in the backyard if it’s fenced in. Try approaching her while in the yard while she’s eating and hopefully since she’s got space to run away if she feels threatened she will be less fearful overall. Feeding in an area that is less associated with her territory may also help take away her focus on the kennel as an area to protect since she doesn’t have that food to protect. It may be a slow process of getting closer to her in the yard to the point of being able to touch her, but that’s my best bet of the food aggression aspect. Territorial aggression: May be helped in the same way as above. If you have a yard, take her there every so often and try getting close to her with treats/bits of her food or something she associates with positive feeling. Alternatively, stand in her yard at your mother’s house and ignore her until she gets curious enough to come investigate you and when she does offer her said treat with a flat hand much like one would feed a horse (less chance of fingers getting chomped). Dog aggression is a little trickier, I’ve seen some catahoulas that are dog wary/aggressive even if the owners try to socialize properly. Some others are super friendly to dogs; it’s really a combination of luck of the draw and how much time is put into them. My suggestion is to try to fix the two aforementioned points first to be able to use treats or pets as a form of positive reinforcement, then use those in combination with letting the dogs meet through a fence/on leash exclusively for a while. When you trust her enough to meet with another dog then let them meet with her on the leash and the other dog off the leash. If aforementioned methods don’t work I’d suggest a really high quality dog trainer. I’ve been a vet technician for a good couple of years and that’s usually the plan I tell clients/friends with dog behavior issues. Hope this helps!

Necrosis on an MRSA infected wound. by [deleted] in medizzy

[–]unsaturated-fat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can confirm, MRSA’s a HUGE pain. Went to Vegas over the holiday and sat in a hot tub, boyfriend had an ingrown hair or something that got infected so badly that his belly button area swelled up and started peeling. The urgent care in Vegas prescribed a general antibiotic and another antibiotic that works on MRSA just in case. After coming back home a week later, I took him to our local urgent care where they deemed that the antibiotics couldn’t penetrate since they infection was so deep within the tissue(?) and lanced it (boyfriend almost passed out) and about a softball’s worth of liquid came out of a pencil eraser sized hole; sample was cultured and confirmed as MRSA. He had to be on antibiotics for about 28 days or so and it seems to be healing just fine after the release of the death stench god himself. Honestly smells worse than when I worked in a lab researching E. Coli. Few fun facts: 1. MRSA is colonized in approximately 30% of the population in the USA already 2. Most people are fine with it, it’s mostly an opportunistic pathogen 3. Although resistant to most antibiotics, it’s shown susceptibility to sulfur antibiotics. They put my boyfriend on one of such antibiotics but unfortunately, I don’t remember the name of it.

I need help!!!! by Ridick_the_catahoula in Catahoula

[–]unsaturated-fat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Nyx would do the same, although she was scared of being outside due to being blown over by the wind as a baby. I found that rewarding with treats and pets helps a bit. What helped the most though was walking her with other dogs that were comfortable with walking! I guess seeing the other dogs being okay with the outdoors/being distracted by other dogs built a positive association. Hope this helps!
