Antimicrobial Resistance In Dogs
Antimicrobial resistance is no longer a theoretical concern discussed only in medical journals. It is a growing reality affecting both human and veterinary medicine, and one that many healthcare professionals have been warning about for decades. The overuse, misuse, and inappropriate selection of antibiotics have contributed to the emergence of bacteria that are increasingly difficult and sometimes nearly impossible to treat. Responsible antibiotic stewardship has become one of the most important challenges facing modern medicine and veterinary care.
Split 4 Summer Shows 2026
With its ancient Roman palace and ruins, lovely squares and beautiful waterfront, Split has evolved into one of the Mediterranean’s defining destinations.

Slightly And Moderately Speaking Of Breed Standards
Why are there so many variations in the way we interpret breed standards? It’s not the nouns; that is, the names of each part of the dog. The nouns are definitive anatomical features and universally understood. A “loin” is a “loin”. We know what a loin is, (at least I hope so) but the adjectives that describe the loin are debatable. Adjectives are extremely important words, but unlike nouns, they leave lots of room for interpretation. You may have heard the expression; one man’s junk is another man’s treasure? Well, apparently, one man’s short loin is another man’s long loin. There are many adjectives that are used to describe the individual parts of a dog. But only two can be applied to all of them: moderate and slightly.
