How old does a male boxer dog have to be to breed?
As a respectable breeder you do NOT breed a boxer before the age of 2 years old. They also should be health screened. OFA hips and elbows, 24 hour holter, ecocardiogramed, thyroid, DM, ARVC. Once these have all been passed or done have come back normal, then you find a male that has the same normal test results. If you do a breeding before 2 years of age or without health testing, you are just a back yard breeder and not helping the breed at all. But making it worse, because you have no idea what you are passing on to those pups.
Is left ventricular hypertrophy fatal?
Left Ventricular Hypertrophy is enlargement of the myocardium (heart muscle) that makes up the left ventricle of the heart. The left ventricle is the chamber of the heart which pumps blood to most of the body (everywhere except the lungs).It is caused when a factor such as high blood pressure increases the work load of the heart muscle, and like any other muscle in our body, if it is worked hard then it will increase in size.If left ventricular hypertrophy is caught in time, then the prognosis can be very good. However, if left untreated it can lead to complications which can be life threatening. This is why if you experience any chest pain or shortness of breath, you should seek medical help immediately.The complications which can be caused by left ventricular hypertrophy are:The enlarged heart muscle loses its elasticity, meaning that it does not pump blood out of the heart effectively leading to increased pressure within the heart.The enlarged muscle compresses its supply of blood vessels, reducing blood flow to the heart muscle.These can lead to arrhythmias of the heart, heart failure, heart attack, insufficient oxygen supply to the heart, and the worst case scenario is it can lead to cardiac arrest (sudden loss of heart function and breathing)
Natural causes of death?
The Bible tells us Jesus was crucified. Crucifixion is a slow and agonising process in which the victim gradually loses strength to take his weight on his feet, so that he must hang from his arms, which prevents him from breathing. At his stage, death from asphyxiation usually results quickly.
