   THAT'S INSANE. The vet probably didn't   
   want to cast aspersions on the breeder   
   for fear of libel.

   WONderful. Many vets give strong antibiotics   
   which of curse CANNOT CURE a VIRUS. When   
   asked, they JUSTIFY SELLIN ANTIBIOTICS for   
   a VIRUS to PREVENT a "SECONDARY INFECTION"   
   aka not havin some EXXXTRA UNDESERVED share   
   of your hard earned MONEY.

   Toto was from Kansas.

   From Kansas, like Toto.

   Toto didn't cough...

   Kennel cough got NUTHIN to do with KENNELS.   
      
   To call it kennel cough is a MISNOMER. KC is a   
   virus like any other "cold" virus and usually goes   
   away in a few days with NO medical treatment   
   JUST LIKE ANY COMMON "COLD".   
      
   So, blamin the dog bein sick on IT being from   
   a PUPPY MILL ain't got NUTHIN to do with   
   HOWE COME the dog IS sick. They GET so   
   called KENNEL COUGH from casually meetin   
   ANY OTHER DOG who GOT a VIRUS.   
      
   PERHAPS HE GOT IT AT HIS OWN VET   
   WHEN IT CAME IN FOR HIS CHECK UP.   
      
   But that won't stop you or an unethicKal vet   
   from BLAMIN the PUPPY MILLS for dog behavior   
   temperament and heelth problems that are primarily   
   CAUSED BY STRESS from MISHANDLING like   
   HOWE you do and the EXXXPERTS DO IT...

    Death Producing Ulcers:   
    "Emotional Influences On Health & Behavior"   
    Dr. George Von Hilsheimer   
      
    Emotional Influences On Behavior   
      
    Illness is directly related to depression and lack of   
    adjustment, particularly to a new environment (Parens,   
    McConville & Kaplan, 1966).   
      
    A WIDE RANGE of PSYCHOSOMATIC or   
    CORTICOVISCERAL DIS-EASES was surveyed   
    by Wittkower (1965) to demonstrate the enormous   
    importance of emotional factors in general health.   
      
    Interview findings of emotional material (recently   
    experienced hopelessness) pryor to biological   
    examinations correctly identified 11 out of 19 with   
    cervical cancer, and 25 of 32 who were cancer free   
    even though psychological tests failed to discriminate   
    these groups (Schmale & Iker, 1966)   
      
    150 lung cancer patients showed significantly   
    constricted expression of emotions. The had fewer   
    childhood behavior problems, and lower neuroticism   
    score than their cancer free controls. Heavy cigarette   
    smokers who DO NOT INHALE are more apt to have LUNG   
    CANCER. They, too, show LOWER neuroticism scores.   
    Among heavy cigarette smokers poor emotional   
    expression is as highly related to cancer as urban   
    residence and is more important than a chronic cough   
    or an air polluted environment (Kissen, 1966).   
      
    A ten year observation of all the women who developed   
    cancer in an isolated pupulation of 2,550 showed that   
    they tended to be unstable or sub stable personalities   
    characterized by melancholy and extraversion,   
    especially marked with those of an undecided body   
    build (Hagll, 1966). Personality dynamics effect both   
    the development of cancer and it's SITE. Cancer   
    may result from what appears to be a failure to grow--   
    somatically, behaviorally and psychologically   
    (Grinker, 1966).   
      
    In 109 cases leukemia and lymphoma were associated   
    with a number of losses or separations and with   
    feelings of sadness, anxiety, anger or hopelessness.   
    The PRIMARY FACTOR seems to be the shame and   
    hopelessness of running out of psychological resources   
    (Green, 1966). Cervical cancer patients are less   
    emotionally responsive, more isolative, and less   
    frequently diagnosed as having clinical neuroses than   
    cancer free patients. There is NO CLEAR DIFFERENCE in   
    their FEELINGS and ATTITUDES toward coitus (Rotkin,   
    Qunk, & Couchman, 1965).   
      
    Schmidt (1966) surveyed nearly 100 studies of   
    behaviorally induced DIS-EASE in animals CONFIRMING   
    and EXTENDING the DATA on PEOPLE. Behaviorally   
    induced DIS-EASES tend to fall into two groups;   
    (1) Hysteriform problems, which INCLUDE HYSTERICAL   
    SEIZURES and FORMS of AGGRESSION as well as   
    collective panic and epilepsies;   
    (2) organic modifications, including functional   
   difficulties   
    and lesions affecting gastro intestinal, cardio vascular,   
    respiratory, sexual, endocrine, skin, urinary, and neuro   
    muscular systems.   
      
    It is INTERESTING, and SLIGHTLY HORRIFYING,   
    to note that the ONLY SCIENTIFIC RELEVANCE of   
    the standard six hour school day that I have been able   
    to detect in research is that Sawrey and Weisz quite   
    by accident found that six hours on and six hour off of   
    "EXECUTIVE BEHAVIOR" in monkeys was the ONLY   
    TIME STRUCTURE that INDUCED DEATH PRODUCING   
    ULCERS.
