Summarize the following:
Your doctor will recommend you switch to eating a nutritious, balanced diet and if you have cirrhosis, to quit drinking alcohol. They may also suggest you have vitamin and mineral supplements to help your liver recover.  If you are overweight, your doctor may suggest you lose weight by doing daily exercise and maintain a healthy weight as part of your recovery plan. People who have central obesity, meaning they mostly gain weight around their abdomen, also gain weight around their internal organs, including the liver. This can lead to "fatty liver" disease and abnormal liver blood tests. Weight loss will alleviate your symptoms. Keep in mind cirrhosis is a progressive disease that will only get worse if you do not make lifestyle and diet changes. You will need to maintain these changes for the remainder of your life to prevent further damage to your liver. If your test results show you have acute or chronic liver damage, your doctor may prescribe medication to help your liver function properly. Discuss dosage for these medications with your doctor and never take more than prescribed.  The type of medication you receive will depend on whether you have acute or chronic liver disease and if you also have bile duct issues. You will likely need to take medication along with making lifestyle and diet changes to treat your liver issue effectively. If your liver is damaged beyond repair, your doctor may suggest a liver transplant. During a liver transplant, your damaged liver is replaced with a functioning liver from a deceased or living donor. You may need to be put on a donor wait list or find out if any family members or friends are a good match and can donate a part of their liver for the procedure.  Your doctor should outline this procedure in detail for you so you are aware of the risks and possible side effects. You will need to take medication to help your new liver regenerate and function well. You will also need to spend 4-6 weeks recovering and check in regularly with your doctor to ensure your new liver is working properly.

summary: Make lifestyle and diet changes to treat hepatitis or cirrhosis. Take medication to treat liver damage. Discuss a liver transplant with your doctor if your condition is severe.

Conformation means the physical appearance of the dog. Rottweilers have an overall stocky look, with a wide chest, long back, and thick legs. Typically they range from 2 to 2 1⁄2 feet (0.6 to 0.8 m) tall at the shoulder, though it is not uncommon for them to be even taller. Rottweilers are powerful, muscular dogs, and the overall shape of the animal should invoke a feeling of strength and agility.  They have large, heavy paws with high knuckles, and are never flat-footed. Their legs are straight, not bowed outwards, and typically stand such that their shoulders are even with or slightly higher than their hindquarters. Their necks are thick, nearly the same diameter around as their heads. The tail is usually docked, (cut short,) but not always, so the presence of a long tail cannot automatically disqualify a Rottweiler from being a pure-bred Rottweiler. Their heads are very boxy, being about the same height as width, and only slightly longer from nose to the back of the head. Rottweilers can have a slight wrinkling effect around the eyes, but this should not be too pronounced. The ears of a Rottweiler will always fold down with a triangular shape, similar to but smaller than a Labrador Retrievers, and they will never stand upright like a German Shepherd Dog or hang like a Basset Hound. It is also important to note that, of the recognized breeds, Rottweilers are typically credited as having the second strongest bite pressure, behind only the pit bull, when measured in pounds per square inch. To this end, the jaws are robust and heavy, and the head wide in order to accommodate the large muscles needed to achieve this kind of strength. Rottweilers will never have underbites like English Bulldogs. Not every Rottweiler is a perfect specimen. Some may be stockier, longer, taller, leaner, or otherwise different than others of the same breed. Remember that while breed types are usually pretty all-inclusive, it is possible to have small variations, especially those that are environmental in nature, within the same breed. It is also important to consider that, like people, some Rottweilers are overweight, and will resemble more of a barrel shape than a tapered athlete. This does not mean the dog is not a Rottweiler, just that it has been spoiled with food. Rottweilers were initially bred for work as protectors and guardians. This means they can be quite dominant, and even aggressive on occasion. Rottweilers are intelligent and active dogs who enjoy playing and completing tasks.  Rottweilers can be very gentle and loving dogs, but they require a lot of training and guidance from an early age. Without proper training as a puppy, Rottweilers can become destructive pets who bark constantly and chew up your furniture or dig in the yard.

summary: Look at the conformation. Look at the head. Notice their jaw strength. Recognize deviations among individuals. Notice common personality traits.

Take a kitchen sponge that you don’t plan on using for washing dishes anymore. Run the abrasive scrubbing side against the clothing or blanket to swipe off pet hair.  Do this outside or over a trash bag so you don’t get hair all over your floors. For hair that's tough to get off, you can use a damp sponge. Wet the sponge, then wring out any excess water before brushing the fabric. Start with a clean adhesive sheet on your roller. Then roll it over the item, using smooth strokes in one direction. Pay special attention to any areas with a lot of hair.  Rip off the sheets as they become covered in hair to expose fresh sheets. Otherwise, the roller won’t be as effective at pulling up the hair. You can also loosen the hair before using the lint roller by spraying static guard on the fabric. The warmth and moisture of the steam also releases trapped hair so it will be easier to remove in the wash. Fill the tank of the steamer with water, then lightly run the steamer over the fabric in downward strokes.  Steamers are safe to use on delicate materials, like wool or velvet. Check the care instructions on the label of the item if you aren’t sure. It’s easier to steam items when they’re hanging up. If you’re on a budget, you can buy a handheld steamer, which typically costs around $30 to $40, instead of a standing steamer, which can cost over $100.
summary: Brush a dry sponge over the fabric to remove hair from the surface. Lift stubborn hair from fabric with a lint roller. Use a clothes steamer if the hair is caught on delicate fabric.
