Re: really busy
Hope you are all o.k. No, I do not do taxes. I work for an agency that does special reports at this time of the year about property assessment in our state and I make MAPS! It is really a great (fun) skill to have but makes me really busy at the same time as the taxes are happening! Stay well and he...

Re: 12 year old Scottie Paralysed in back legs
Absolutely. If the vet has approved the physio and hydro therapy that is wonderful. The T Touch is amazing stuff also so you should be in great shape as far as all of the Therapy. Just keep the faith for yourselves and your dog too. If your vet does acupuncture or does Adequan shots, you might ask a...

Re: paralyzed shih-tzu - Sammie
Hi JoJo, Sorry about your Sammie. This is so stressful. You have the info about bowels and bladder. We also used a scarf for our dachshund when he needed to have a sling. It worked just fine. If you had surgery a month ago, Sammie should still be confined so he gets a chance to heal. He needs to be ...
