For fans of Terhune and the Sunnybank collies
This video is from 8mm home movies of Bert and Anice Terhune. I recognize the temperamental Persian cat, Tippy, and some of the collies look familiar, but I can't say who they are right off the top of my head. When I get some spare time, I will compare photos with the images on the video and try to identify the ones I can. Enjoy this thrilling peek into the lives of the Sunnybank residents.
ivermectin toxicity in herding breeds
Ivermectin is the main ingredient of most heartworm preventive medications. Collies, Aussies, Shelties, and several other breeds can have a gene that causes hypersensitivity to ivermectin. Washington State Veterinary College has a dna test that will tell you whether or not your dog has that gene.
Mixed breed dogs can carry the gene as well as herding breeds.
Check out Ginger's Story - a mixed breed dog that had the gene. Ginger almost died - it was only through the diligent efforts of her owners and the veterinarians that were taking care of her - that she survived.
