My last psychotic professor would have to disagree with you on that, he thinks it is all vessel wall status tied up with the kidneys and the adrenals (subrenals)... The heart just is a pump... LOL... Do NOT deal with his logic anymore.




Is that all breeds of dogs? Or one breed over another? Like you wouldn't see it in a mutt, but you would with particular breeds, like Great Danes, some Laboradors, and maybe one of those "yip yip" dogs... But in ALL dogs?

Also, I forgot what it's call, but all the organs are on the "wrong side"... A few dogs show that kind of gross genetic rearrangement.

lol. I'm not surprised. We get some of the most hilarious calls. We laugh and talk about some of them for months.
Most of the other stuff sounds like you learning many things and memorizing what you need to know!!! Are you ready for licensure? Good for you though!!!

I've been fighting with little popcorn mice that jump so high right into a plastic bag... And actually, I am rather depressed due to the stuff I had to do to some of them... We are talking close to 50 cages and 100 odd mice...[/quote]


at your professor.

Actually AKA_Monet, any dog whether it's an indoor or an outdoor pet, is capable of being infected. From what I've read, there are some 70 species (at least) of mosquitos that can transmit heartworm disease, so it doesn't matter which breed. A lot of times though, like I was saying earlier the severity pretty much just depends on the number of worms present, the immune response of the infected dog, the duration of the infection, and the activity level of the dog.

Yes, yes, yes. lol. I've learned SO much and I do plenty of learning and memorizing what I need to know. I've almost gone through two highlighters, so it's time for a new one. But yes, I've learned a lot.

Speaking of mice jumping. Listen to this. Earlier I posted that I bought a tarantula (I was talking about body part regeneration, but I don't think anyone was interested ) but anyway I have one and she's gotten big enough to eat mice. The problem is she can't catch some of the ones I've fed her. They jump and stick on the inside of the top of the aquarium. So I'm familiar with the jumping.

lol why are you depressed, what have you been doing to them? I don't think it can be any worse than what I've done to some of them.
