Common Items in a Dog Health Checkup
A routine dog checkup covers coat and skin, weight, temperature, eyes, ears, teeth, feces, X-rays, and blood work. Many diseases show no early signs and become serious or even untreatable by the time they appear, and older dogs face organ decline and age-related illness, so yearly exams are worthwhile. A typical visit measures rectal temperature (normal 38-38.9°C), checks eyes and ears for cleanliness, assesses coat and weight, examines the mouth for gum or tooth disease, and may add fecal, X-ray, or blood tests as needed.
Are Double-Bloodline Ragdoll Cats Special?
A double-bloodline Ragdoll has two purebred Ragdoll parents, which usually means better conformation but costs more, and is not a guarantee of good looks. Some double-bloodline cats inherit poor traits from their parents and look worse than others. Single-bloodline cats, with only one purebred parent, are even more unpredictable. Because bloodline does not determine appearance, choose a Ragdoll by its looks rather than its papers. Good examples come in three color patterns: bicolor, point, and mitted.
Silver Celestial Eye Goldfish
The Silver Celestial Eye Goldfish is a variety of Dragon-back goldfish whose eyeballs protrude from the sockets and turn upward and forward toward the sky, hence the name sky-gazing eye. It is a relatively rare goldfish variety.
Wuhan Lion Cat
The Wuhan Lion Cat is a goldfish variety with a short, round body whose eyes and mouth are covered by developed head growths, so it is prone to 'head-droop'. It belongs to the Lionhead type.
Celestial Eye Goldfish
The Celestial Eye Goldfish is a variety of goldfish whose name reflects its most obvious trait: when viewed from above, you can clearly see its upturned eyes. Newly hatched fry actually have normal eyes; the change begins only about one to two months after hatching.
Rose Red Dragon-eye with Tiger-head
The rose red tiger-head dragon-eye is a goldfish variety, so its care and habits are much like other goldfish. It has a very gentle temperament and weak territoriality, and can be mixed with other equally mild ornamental fish.
Red and White Bubble-eye
The Red and White Bubble-eye is a variety of goldfish. While bubble-eye goldfish come in many rich colors, the red-and-white form is considered the finest. Like other goldfish, it is easy to keep, needing only attention to feeding and environment.
Black Bubble Eye Goldfish with Dorsal Fin
The Black Bubble Eye Goldfish with Dorsal Fin is an all-black variety of bubble-eye goldfish that first appeared around 1982, prized when its color is as deep as ink. Unlike tailless bubble eyes, it retains a normal dorsal fin. Its fluid-filled eye sacs are delicate and require careful handling and stable water conditions.
Burmese Eyed Turtle
The Burmese eyed turtle (Morenia ocellata) comes from southern Myanmar and occasionally appears in the Chinese pet market at reasonable prices with an appealing look. Weak at adapting to new environments, it is nevertheless easy to keep as a largely aquatic turtle.
Canine and Feline Globe Prolapse (Eye Protrusion)
Globe prolapse occurs when the eye is forced out of the socket, most often from fighting or blunt trauma and especially in short-nosed breeds. Prompt replacement offers the best chance of saving the eye; badly damaged or infected globes may require surgical removal.
