Heart rhythms/ synching

Basenji Health Issues & Questions
  • ?

    This is going to sound a bit strange, but I'm okay with that.

    I have an enlarged heart and high blood pressure, often times my heartbeat gets a bit out of whack. my concern is that when Winter curls up with me in bed, her heart beat matches mine. I'm concerned because I'm used to it, I can handle it, but she has a much much smaller heart than I do and I don't want anything to happen to her because of this. I've had her for a month now, and she isn't presenting any issues currently, I'm just asking for discussion purposes.

    Thank you all so much for your posts, they truly helped me a lot. Being my first puppy, it is nice to be reaffirmed that she is just a puppy and that this is normal puppy behavior…. I will definitely continue with the training and try to be more consistent with my approaches. I truly did not think that this was aggression and I'm sorry for the misleading title post; I guess I was involving my own feelings as it has been a little frustrating to say the least. I see how the other puppies are in puppy class, and then there is little Kaya running around barking/yodeling for the entire hour - She is a little diva. Thanks again, and I look forward to continued interactions in this forum!

    @nobarkus: That's a possibility. Though I'm not sure what's in plastic that could be missing in the diet. Mine have eaten dirt/clay to get the minerals. Can you get Steve's Raw Dog Food? It's sold mostly at Whole Foods Market. http://www.stevesrealfood.com/. I'm picking up a new tri today from BRAT and I'm going to try it. The woman who runs BRAT said it help her B that had chronic diarrhea. You can mix it with kibble. I'm also going to use Organix dry dog food to mix it with. Let us know how it goes.. and we would love for you to join us next weekend in Livermore for the BCONC lure trial/puppy match/club meeting….

    I agree, rawhide is bad for most dogs. I never give it to my 2.
