Thanks all. Jackson's slightly better and coughing less the last couple of days. I think the medications (from the vet + the boosters recommended above) plus running the humidifier have all finally...

Thanks all. Jackson's slightly better and coughing less the last couple of days. I think the medications (from the vet + the boosters recommended above) plus running the humidifier have all finally...
Thanks. That makes sense re: the antibiotics. Guess it's reassuring to hear that this one just needs to work its way through his system - I was mostly concerned since it's been so long and my other...
Hi all - it's been a while since I've visited this board, but I'm hoping to get thoughts from group. I boarded my two labs (4 year old girl, 6 year old boy) for 2 weeks late August/early September...
That solo cup idea is truly genius. At our parties, it's our friends' kids who want to feed the dogs. Thankfully, the kids always ask permission and since we always have veggie platters at our...
Your camp reports are seriously cool. Hemi is a very lucky pup!
Do you mind linking to the Kurgo model you picked up? I'm looking for some new options for my pups.
Have fun in dog scout camp! My dogs are rather jealous of Hemi's adventures!
My girl lab was attacked last week by a dog that had gotten loose from his home. The dog was wandering around on a busy street and was very friendly to my husband (listened to commands, super...
Are there any high school or college-aged kids nearby? Maybe you can pay one to come for 20-30 minutes in the middle of the day to play with your dog or walk him.
Does your machine have a filter on it that you can clean? My front loader has one - there's a little "trap door" on front of the machine (the bottom left side, I think). In that, there's a drain...
I think it's weird that a vet would so casually suggest to just do corrective surgery later - it's like a doctor telling a patient to not worry about eating right / exercising because they can just...
Agree that it's helpful to have just in case. We didn't use the sedative for Jackson's neuter, but I was given some when he had elbow surgery. I wasn't going to give it to him (Jackson's pretty...
My condolences. Run free sweet boy! :image019:
No, these are not the people damaging property. These aren't necessarily even the people who are participating in peaceful protests. The incident I witnessed was simply a girl putting gas in her...
Gorgeous pups. Those pics are definitely holiday card material!
I hope you realize that this isn't about defending people who are bummed about the election results. This is about standing side by side with people who are being targeted by jerks who think that...
Thanks for the suggestions! I hadn't thought about a massage or pedi gift card but both of those could work. One recipient is an ultra-marathoner, so I'm certain she'd make good use out of one of...
It must be nice to not know what it's like to be singled out simply for your race, gender or physical appearance. Your empathy know no bounds.
Hi all - trying to be organized and get a jump on holiday prep and shopping (the malls are already a crowded mess here!) and am looking for good ideas for a holiday gift for a dog walker and for my...
Wow. First of all, Jeff - you're awesome.
Bernie - I don't know why you're so insistent that some bad people are not emboldened by the election results. The fact is that some people are now...
For whatever reason, my girl would slip out of her doggie diapers - she is a smaller lab, so I think they just slipped off her waist. So I went to Target and got boy's underwear (Batman themed!) and...
Thanks all - the Vetricyn and Dermaplast both seem to work well, though I suspect the Vetricyn stings a bit based on my guy's reaction to it. The Gold Bond was a bit tough given the location, but...
Oh, thanks for that tip! I now have both gold bond and dermaplast - I'll see which one works best. I suspect the spray will be easier given the spot's location.
And good to know about the...
Thanks for the info, especially about trimming the hair. I didn't trim much yesterday, particularly because I didn't want to get too close to the armpit, but I will refrain from going back in and...
Hi all - I think my boy has a hotspot (is this 1 word or 2?) in his armpit. He had one on his rump a few months ago, so I still have some items to help treat it - Vetericyn VF and the Duoxo...
My older dog never took to the ramp. I have an SUV and it was too steep for him to feel comfortable on it. I ended up getting steps from Pet Loader and those work great. They collapse down nicely,...
