Re: CLAVAMOX

Hi Marilyn, Clavamox is a very common medication. If he is going to have a problem with it, I think it will show up pretty soon. I remember you used to have to express Wally.

Re: Most absorbant pads?

I was wondering if anyone knows what kind of a pad to put under a male wrap for a 13lb doxin? I have been using the always long super pads, but they really aren"t absorbent enough. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
