    Acepromazine (Or Something) To Restrict Activity?

    in Health and Medical discussion

    Posted

    Whoot! Joe has decided the front leg works today. I'm still going to restrict him quite a bit, but I don't think he needs to be knocked out with 3 1/2 working legs.

    I give credit for his recovery to Irene (Neighsayer). I picked up doggie lift slings from her this morning, which ensured that he will never need help again.

    Hope the slings are never needed! Thanks for bringing the bread! Sorry that Specky and Reba drank your coffee!

    Bandaged Paw. In Pain Or Sympathy?

    in Health and Medical discussion

    I've never heard of stitches for corn removal. Not sure what they did, but there is probably pain if it was just done.

    I had a dog who refused to walk on a foot with a bandage on it. Take off the bandage...no problem!

    I don't think he is looking for sympathy. Maybe pain, or maybe just doesn't like the feeling of walking with a bandage on.

    Hope tomorrow is better.

    Ruby Is Changing Quickly

    Can you set up a smaller pen off the deck with a couple of X-pens? That way she isn't on a leash, but you should be able to catch her.

    My twelve year old tripod is deaf. Recently, when she goes out late at night, I have to bring her back in. She just settles down in the dirt to sleep, even if I leave the door open. She can't hear me calling, so I have to grab her collar. Once she sees me, she does come in. It's like she thinks she has to stay out there until I come get her, even when she sees the other dogs go in. I have only had her for three months, but this behavior is new. I understand how frustrating this can be. Good luck!
