  1. YOUR HEALTH: Tips for treating your child's fever

    Fever is one of the most common reasons for parents to visit an emergency department with their child or infant. Fever itself is not an illness, but a symptom for a wide range of conditions. An elevated body temperature is part of the body’s normal response to fighting infection.

  4. Outdoors? Make regular checks for ticks

    In Virginia the most common tick bite comes from the Lone Star tick. "You'll pick up 50 to 100 Lone Stars for every one black-legged tick," said David Gaines, state entomologist. Yet Lyme Disease, carried exclusively by the immature black-legged, or deer tick, is the most common tick-borne disease<strong> </strong>in the state, with more than 1,100 cases last year, according to Health Department statistics. Of those, the local region recorded only about two dozen.

  7. Dog Tails and Myths

    <span style="font-size: small;">I still hear the same dog myths today that I remember hearing as a child. Call them myths, ol' wives' tails, folklore or superstitions, but they are not true and in fact may be just bad advice.&nbsp; They have been passed down from the Great and Powerful OZ and, even still, reside in the gospel of digital Dr. Google.&nbsp; There is no doubt that you will shudder and balk at the blasphemy against hundreds of years of &ldquo;proof&rdquo; that these fallacies are fact.&nbsp; It will rock the very core of your dog knowledge that you have rooted and passed on to all others who seek your mentoring and advice because you are&hellip;..&nbsp; &ldquo;Dog Person&rdquo;!&nbsp; If these &ldquo;facts&rdquo; as you know them are false, what else in this world can be true?&nbsp; Next thing you are going to tell me is that Lassie wasn&rsquo;t a real show about saving the life of little Timmy every week and, worse yet, Lassie was a boy dog!</span>
