Anybody know if dogs can get Alzheimer's?

Chatting to one of the dog walkers this afternoon, I asked after a guy I often chat with in passing, because I'd not seen him for a couple of months. He said the guys dog had recently got infected with Alabama foot rot and it had died in short order.  :(

Around here we seem to have had the largest out break in the country of this new to the UK disease, that's at least 18 so far in the district.

A bit late in posting this. It's not Christmas unless you humiliate your pets with Christmas-themed accessories:

This could also go in the cat megathread, though it's slightly more doggy (and I found this thread first): http://fayar.craigslist.org/rnr/4837487579.html

Someone got us a dog DNA test for Christmas, and Princesca just got the results back for Roscoe.

His primary breed lineages are

Boxer: no surprise
German Shepherd: no surprise
Tibetan Mastiff: MEOWTF!?!?!!?

Cute.  So cute the other dogs are bowing to him!

Knowing dogs, this is done by sniffing the other dog's butthole ...  ;)

Recently we've had crisis/emotional support dogs visiting our workplace (yes haters, that is a thing), just to be there for people to pet and get some support human-animal bonding.

One of them today was a Keeshond.  I had not known such an awesome breed existed before, it's like a big raccoon-dog. .  :wub:

I've wanted a greyhound for a long time now.  A friend of mine had one they had rescued from racing, or she was "retired" (which means too old or slow I assume), or something like that, and she was the sweetest dog I've ever met.  Remarkably lazy, but fun when she felt like it.  I really doubt I have enough space for one though. 

The cats would probably not appreciate that at all either.  :P
