In 1954 aired the television series Lassie, showing a Collie dog that helped its owners with multiple things as the main character. The truth, as they say, she could almost talk! The series lasted for many years on the air and then many more years of reruns. And the breed became famous.

The breed originated in Scotland. The Collie dog is a tall, thin and has a long face. There are varieties with short hair and long but the best known is the long hair. The hair has various colors, including white, chocolate, gold and black. It is characterized by its pointed ears. They have an average life expectancy of 12 years.

As for his personality, Collie dogs are sweet and easy to train. They love to please their owners and are very smart. They love to be near their owners, making them an excellent choice for a family without children, who wants to turn their love in them.

But they are also ideal in a family with children because they love them and are excellent babysitters. They make sure no stranger gets near the children and will bark if something happens, like if the child cries or falls.

The body has the ability to defend itself from many of the organisms that cause disease. As in humans, dogs get infections and heal without any intervention to heal.

However there are some viruses and bacteria that are harder to fight and also have the potential to kill or maim the dog. Fortunately there are vaccines for it.
Before adopting a dog, whether puppy or adult it’s necessary to find out about their vaccination. If he already had a shot would be dangerous to apply it again. If the former owner has a written record of the dog health checks, he/she should give it to you.

If you adopt adult dogs in a shelter, it is best to consult your veterinarian about what vaccinations to give him and at what time. Among the most important are Distemper, Parvovirus, Hepatitis, Leptospirosis and Rabies.

Remember that vaccines require multiple doses; the vet will tell you when you need to bring him for the next dose. It is important to give them in time to have full effectiveness. Finally, for the rest of the dog’s life, we must give him a multivalent reinforcement to ensure protection against disease.

The Sphynx Cat

A cat that draws much attention, for better or for worse, is the Sphinx cat. This cat has the appearance of being bald, and also has a muscular body. His legs and chest are firm and strong and has a prominent belly.
The sphinx cat is not really bald. This cat is covered with a layer of hair very short and very thin, which gives the appearance of having no hair. If you caress his body you will see that it is covered with a very fine coat, almost imperceptible to the touch, and of course, almost invisible.
However, throughout history, we know that often hairless cats have arisen naturally. This feature is due to genetic mutations, which occur naturally in the evolution of species. We can assume that will continue to occur throughout history.
There are few breeders of this breed of cat, which is much less popular than their hairy counterparts, like the Persians. However, those who have had the opportunity to meet a sphinx cat, say they are very sweet and loving cats, which are a very good choice of pet for their tender company.
