Dogs in Doha Dogs in Doha is a volunteer organization helping rescued dogs find a loving home. We are a network of people who help to rescue, foster, adopt and find missing dogs. We do not have a shelter but rely on the kindness of people to foster or sponsor a dog while we work to find a forever home. All dogs that are ready for adoption have been to a professional vet and are healthy, have been vaccinated, spay / neutered and micro-chipped. Our philosophy is 'Don't Shop, Adopt', help us to spread the word. If you are interested in volunteering, fostering or adopting a dog into your family please contact us.

Top ten tips to healthy kids' teeth 1 2
Use a water-soaked gauze pad to clean baby’s gums.
3
Use a fluoride toothpaste when child is able to fully spit after brushing. Use smear of toothpaste for young children and pea-sized drop for older kids.
4 5
Start flossing child's teeth when last two molars touch.
6
When children ingest sugars, it takes saliva at least 30 minutes to neutralize acidity created by decay-producing bacteria. An hourly sugary snack creates a constantly acidic situation, increasing the chances for tooth decay.
7 8
A child should see a dentist at 12 months and annually thereafter.
9
Curb thumb-sucking by age 5 to prevent developmental abnormalities. A pediatric dentist can customize an appliance for your child to stop the habit.
Gently brush baby's erupting teeth with a small, soft-bristled toothbrush and water. Teach children how to brush by age 2. Supervise brushing and flossing until 8 years.
No bottles or milk or juice in bed. Baby Bottle Tooth Decay occurs when teeth are frequently exposed to sugary fluids (including breast milk and formula) for long periods.
Sealants helps prevent food from lodging in tiny surface grooves. Topical fluoride strengthens enamel against decay.
exam by a pediatric dentist can identify future bite problems. Correcting 10 An it early can save the costly expenses of braces in the future.

Safety tips for medications Keep medicines out of the reach of children – including inhalers, vitamins, herbal medicines, homeopathic medicines and medicated creams. Check expiry date of medicine before using. Most medicines need to be kept in a cool (below 25ºC) dry place. If the air conditioning isn’t on at all times where they are stored (e.g. in the bathroom) then store them in the fridge. To avoid mishaps write the dosage and frequency on the box or bottle. Also, know what to do if a dose is accidentally missed or doubled. Set calendar reminders for taking medications, particularly if taking more than one type. Inform doctors and pharmacists of allergies and current medications when discussing a new prescription. Some medications can interact with others, as well as with certain types of food. Read the printed insert included in the box to ensure that the medicine can be taken safely.
If prescribed antibiotics be sure to take regularly and complete the course. Do not accept medications from a friend.

TEN TIPS TO A HEATHY & SAFE PREGNANCY •
Take Folic acid during and preferably prior to pregnancy to reduce the chances of spinal defects.
•
The vast majority of structural anomalies are best detected by traditional ultrasounds rather than three or four dimensional ultrasounds.
•
Exercise, marital relations, shopping and care of the household are safe in moderation during a normal pregnancy.
•
Regular exercise contributes to a swifter and less painful birth experience. Walking, and pre-natal yoga are good ways to keep fit.
•
Eat plenty of fruits & vegetables, starchy foods and dairy. Iodine-rich foods help the baby’s development.
•
Stay out of the sun as much as possible - too much sun can cause a skin pigmentation problem called “pregnancy mask”.
•
More mature mothers may face additional pregnancy complications and require both closer monitoring and more tests than younger mothers.
•
Avoid henna, hair dyes and other chemicals during pregnancy.
•
Keep your feet up as much as possible during the last trimester.
•
Use the seat belt appropriately with the lower belt on the pelvis and the chest belt above the tummy.

Drowning is NOT
what you think Someone who is drowning Cannot call for help Does not wave arms for help May not reach for rescue equipment Stays afloat only 20-60 seconds before sinking Might look OK at first glance Sometimes sinks to the bottom immediately Drowning Happens quickly and quietly Is not dramatic Generally occurs within 25 yards of other people Is the 3rd leading cause of unintentional injury death worldwide But it CAN be prevented
