Re: Allicks's Karen can probably tell you more -you betcha

Up and down, up and down, repeating STEP STEP STEP. In the beginning, yes, baby gates, or confinement until the step thing is safe. Up and down, up and down, and walking the house on lead so we know where that staircase is. Landmarks in the form of scents for floor 1 and floor two, ie liver scent on...

Re: A Dilemma - I don't know what to do.

If there's one thing I know, it's how to get a community to pull together to work miracles. Contact all local shelters and pet assistance leagues, veterinarians, ask them for monetary assistance, write a story for your local paper, contact your local television. There are funds out there for needy d...

Re: Joint pain in large dogs

Carol, that St. Josephs asperin you are talking about it's been all over tv lately! Thank you, I will pick some up tonight. My dogs do not need to lose their stomach linings, just a few pounds. I was told 80% of a dog's weight is carried on the front legs. Poor Jude's got three bum ones. I've tried ...

Re: lost cat to FeLV

I lost my best friend, Buddy, 16 years ago to FELV. Had him longer than my son had been alive and had custody fight over him in divorce court. One day he was fine, the next I had to have him put to sleep. His counts were not 1/20th of what they should have been. He had his shots as regularly as my b...

BlindDogs & Danger

We are 4.5 mos old, have mastered sit, down, stay (well...) working on heel, the bell - I wear it. Told the trainer I need to teach her Danger, which I have taught my lab. She wondered how.

Re: Severe Hip Dysplasia in my 7 month old puppy

Removal of the ball from the hip joint is called FHO. St. Jude had it done-his ball jammed into socket from being thrown out of a car and run over by another- and even though doctor didn't sand the shards of bone behind it, he runs and jumps and plays like a puppy. Took many months for recovery, but...
