I'm so very sorry for your loss...

I'm so very sorry for your loss!

I'm so very sorry to read this tragic news! I hope the surgery goes well and Darcy recovers quickly and can manage his new life...

I'm sorry to read that poor Marla isn't getting much better. Did you run a tick panel? It could be a tick disease like Ehrlichiosis...

If it's a pneumonia, it seems to be a very untypical pneumonia as normally there are symptoms of high fever, coughing and difficult breathing. Did you run a tick panel...just in case? Lethargy and anorexia (loss of appetite) are some of the symptoms of a tick disease...does Marla have any fever? I hope your sweet Marla will recover soon!

Ivy and Soldi do that 'reverse sneezing' every now and then...no reason to worry about.

How is Marla doing? Any update?

Normally the symptoms of pneumonia are heavy breathing, high fever, coughing etc. Here's a link of canine pneumonía: http://rds.yahoo.com/_ylt=A0geu.JtYf1GPyQB...management.html I hope she feels better soon...

I'm so sorry to read that tragic news about Scooter...

I'm so very sorry...

My hounds do tolerate Drontal quite well BUT they get bloody stools when giving Panacur. They don't tolerate Panacur at all...my recommendation: don't give these drugs if not necessary. I have given the last DRontal about 4 years ago...I stopped doing those regular administrations without need. I ONLY give them in case of worms...Ivy and Soldi haven't had worms for many years, so why mix their 'system up' with unnecessary medications?

Some articles about this... http://cbs13.com/health/health_story_251215137.html http://www.inteldaily.com/?c=120&a=3470 http://www.mydogback.com/index.php?key=presse Sorry, the last one is in German...

Many good thoughts for sweet Scooter! Ivy has problems with his right rear leg too... Best wishes for a quick recovery!

I'm very sorry to read about that devastating diagnosis...I'll keep Freddy in my thoughts and wish you the very best for him!

Dr. Bill...did you read this latest article I posted? Visit My Websitehttp://neutering.org/files/LongTermHealthEffectsOfSpayNeuterInDogs.pdf I would appreciate your opinion as a vet about what is written in the article...do you think the info is incorrect?

I'm just curious -- how's that working out for you? You had them together for many years and no baby doggies? Yes...I have had both since puppy age (3 months). The female Soldi (yesterday was her 8th birthday) only enters in season once per year. My male Ivy (will be 11 in November) couldn't care less until her 4 'receptive days' when he gets interested. These 4 days I walk them separately...at home, I separate them when I leave the house only during those 4 days. Soldi is very clean and Ivy really not very 'sexual'... no problems ever.

I think this article is very interesting and offers a lot of valuable info concerning the neutering of dogs and the health benefits and risks... Visit My Websitehttp://neutering.org/files/LongTermHealthEffectsOfSpayNeuterInDogs.pdf

Best wishes for Freddy!

I personally would never neuter a healthy dog (and even more a male!) without strong behavioural or medical reasons. My hounds (male and female) are both intact (8 and 11 years old) In females, neutering before the first season reduces the risk of mammary cancer and piometra, in males there's no significant health advantage. Neutering increases the risk of Osteosarcoma. I found this article talking about castration... Visit My Websitehttp://www.gsdhelpline.com/neutr.html

I'm so very sorry for your loss...!

Poor little guy...I wish him a quick recovery! He's so beautiful!

I'm so very sorry that your poor Bodie has to go through all this...he's so sweet...I wish him the best and keep him in my thoughts...

I LOVE your kitchen window!

I'm so very sorry for your loss... At least Quinnie has enjoyed all the love and happyness of the world in your home, Run free, sweet Angel...

I'm so sorry...
