BONE APPÉTIT!

by John R. Groesbeck The ankle bone’s connected to the leg bone, the leg bone’s connected to the thigh bone… and this Tidbits connects you to some bony trivia! • The average adult human’s body contains 206 bones. But when that human being first entered the world, he or she may have had 270 bones or more. Why? An infant’s skull and face is constructed of many small bones hinged together by flexible suture joints. (This makes it possible for the baby’s huge head to pass through the birth canal.) As the child grows older, those smaller bones fuse together to become one larger, solid skull. • The slang term “sawbones” refers specifically to a surgeon, not just any ol’ doctor. The first recorded use of the word dates back to 1837. And, yes, the name came about due to the then-traditional “cure-all” of amputation. • Bones not only allow us to stand upright and form a frame for our muscles and skin to stretch around, they also protect us. The ribs curl around our lungs and heart, two of our most delicate and necessary organs. The skull is the body’s “helmet” and keeps the brain safe, while the vertebrae in our back and neck encase the all-important spinal cord. • The smallest bones in our bodies are inside the ear, and are commonly called the hammer, anvil, and stirrup. They perform a very complex function as the conduit between external sound vibrations and the inner ear that sends those signals to the brain. Past the eardrum, the ear canal contains fluid. If you’ve ever tried to shout at someone underwater in a swim -ming pool, you know how muddled sounds can be when traveling through liquids. These three tiny bones act like a pipeline, transmitting sound vibrations through the inner ear canal to the auditory nerve. turn the page for more!

The "Penny Drive" is started to help fund the 6th Grade Outdoor School field trip in June. They are going the first week of June. Change jugs were dropped off at Mike's and the Toledo Florist today. Patrons are being invited to round up their purchase and donate the change to the 6th Grade field trip. It's a painless way to make extra money, as no one will be asked to donate more than 99 cents! I think this is a great way to invite 'everyone' to participate, quickly and easily. Jugs are going to be moved weekly and announcements will be sent out on "Where's the Jugs Now?". Hopefully a little change will go along way towards this most valuable experience for our kids. thanks!

Shih-tzu Is Biting Herself Crazy DEAR PAW'S CORNER: What would make my shih-tzu bite her tail? I noticed that "Mitzy" was constantly trying to nibble her own tail. When I looked closer, I found a hard lump and a small cut that was draining. She bites at it worse at night. Mitzy has no fleas, but she does have dry skin. What's going on? -- Alice H., via e-mail DEAR ALICE: Without knowing exactly where the lump is located, I can't say for certain. It goes without saying that any change in a dog's behavior, or anything odd that you notice on your pet (such as a new lump or a draining cut) should prompt you to visit the veterinarian as soon as possible for a thorough checkup. Some dogs, regardless of breed, suffer from chronic dry skin. But dry skin can be a herald of a deeper health problem, such as a thyroid condition, which can only be determined through a blood test. So, the best thing to do, again, is mention it to Mitzy's vet when you bring her in to have the lump checked. The vet may do a biopsy to determine whether the lump is benign. He or she also will ask you a number of questions about Mitzy's daily behavior: how much and how often she eats, if she is drinking and urinating more than usual, if the dry skin has been a problem for a long time or if it's recent, any known food allergies or health problems, and so on. If there are no underlying problems, the vet may recommend that you try a change in Mitzy's diet (he or she will give you some options) to treat her dry skin. You can also add an Omega 3 supplement to her food -- the vet may have this available, or you can purchase the supplement at a pet store.
