THE SOLAR ECLIPSE - WILL IT AFFECT OUR PETS?
by
Mary Krutz, Inside Sales - Golrusk
On August 21, 2017 a total solar eclipse will take place and viewable in the continental US if weather permits. Although there have been many types of eclipses viewable to us, this eclipse is rare. Why? It will travers across the entire country coast to coast. Only one other time has this happened in 150 years. That one occurred in 1918.
There have only been 15 total solar eclipse events to affect even a portion of the continental U.S. since the first documentation in 1867. These happened in 1869, 1878, 1889, 1900, 1918, 1923, 1925, 1930, 1932, 1945, 1954, 1959, 1963, 1970, and 1979 according to the Weather Underground site at
Weather Underground
. The next one visible in part of the US will happen in 2024.
In Green Bay we will not see a total eclipse, but the partial eclipse will be visible. The darkest time in Green Bay will be at 1:16:06 pm.
How will the eclipse affect our pets? Because most scientists have been very busy learning about the eclipse phenomena itself, it wasn't until 1932 that studies were done on what happens with animals.
It seems the scientific conclusion goes something like this according to a CNN news report.
Dogs that are sensitive to atmospheric changes such as thunderstorms may be distressed by the changes in temperature and light. As we know, our pets have become very sensitive to our emotions and reactions. If you feel spooked or excited by the eclipse, your dog may pick up on those emotions. Take precautions to keep you pet safe and secure in the event they get frightened. On a normal day, most dogs do not look at the sun so it is unlikely they will look up on their own. However, if their humans are excited and pointing and looking up, it may be a safer option to keep the pet indoors during the event.
Our Pet Cats will probably just take the whole thing in stride as they do most things that happen in the world around them.
As the sky darkens some animals will get confused regarding the time of day. Nocturnal animals and insects may come out and daytime animals may become subdued. Birds, for example may become quiet during the darkest time of the eclipse.
To read more about the reaction of animals during a solar eclipse go to CNN.

DOES GOLRUSK PROVIDE SERVICE DOG TRAINING?
Many people ask if Golrusk provides training for service dogs. The simple answer is no, ......however......
Our program will give you the tools to train your dog to be well behaved. Attending the classes and working with your dog through Obedience 2 will help prepare your dog for the Canine Good Citizen Test. Tina, our Director of Training, is certified to administer the test and certify your dog. This certification will allow your dog to visit nursing homes, schools and daycares. It is also the first step in training therapy (hospital visits) and emotional support dogs. Therapy and emotional support dogs are not considered service dogs and are not given the privilages of public access to places covered by Americans with Disabilities Act. Service dogs require a special personality and intense one on one training with a professional familiar with the specific tasks the dog must perform for the disabled person.
A recent trend is to purchase a vest, credentials and I.D.s on line for about $300 and with little or no training, try to pass dogs off as service dogs.
This is harmful because people who truly need assistance are facing added discrimination caused by the unruly and disruptive behavior of these fake service dogs.
