Re: After 6 weeks of catheter Riley peed own his own!

I can relate to your Happiness, great News isn't it? Yes, don't we get excited over these Events, Precious!

I hope you can get Riley expressed, it would save you a lot of work, I express my Girl 3/4 times a day and She never has accidents. How did it go at the Vet today???

Re: Tight sphincter - defecation

Great Visuals Carol, seriously going to help people. I do the same with Duchess 2/3 times a day, easier for me as hers don't turn. Never even knew this could happen! I live and learn.

Christine, you are right, they will get over it!! :D

My Dog hasn't progressed a great deal in 14 months BUT she has progressed and ...

Many of the Town's dogs are affected and are nervous wrecks at that time, they are prescribed a light sedative which eases their problem. Maybe have a chat with your Vet and see if your Dog would b...
