  1. I adopted a Grey once that had a split molar. The vet that checked him before adoption actually wrote it on his report. He cried and cried for the first day I had him. Took him to my vet and she pulled the tooth.
  2. Could it be time for a dental? If so, maybe the tooth could be extracted. Even if it is not time, I would have the tooth extracted.
  3. Try washing and double rinsing her bedding and anything else she lays around in. Might look into changing her food with another different protein. Stay away from chicken because many dogs have an allergy to it.
  4. Sorento collars. Been using them for years.
  5. Thanks for the suggestion. I am going to pass it on to my friend.
  6. Need a recommendation for a dog bed for after surgery.
  7. Thank you all so very much. I too will be looking to switch down the road.
  8. Right now I am doing just exactly what the vet says because I almost lost him.
  9. He is on low fat food because of Pancreatitis. This is the first time we have had a problem and the specialist said it was brought on by a raw turkey neck. It was a large turkey neck, but had no skin and like I said it was raw. It took 9 days from the time I gave it to him until a CT scan confirmed it. So, I do not want to trigger any problems. My female Galgo had a turkey neck on the same day with no problems. I was giving it to them for their teeth. So, I am now feeding him Prescription Diet ID..canned and kibble. I imagine I will keep him on it for the rest of his life.
  10. Oh, forgot to say that my dogs are Galgos.
  11. My dog must stay on a low fat diet (2.6 - 8.6 fat content). My question is can I give him Grizzly Salmon oil? The label says it is 99% fat.
  12. My vet told me that there are several strains of Bordatella and that the shot covers the first 3 "bad" ones on the list. She also gives them the 3 years rabies shot, even though the county I live in does not recognize the 3 year.
  13. I ask them at the vets not to shave my grey's arm to start an IV. They can do it without shaving.
  14. Both of my hounds were on 3 Gabapentin tabs 3 times a day. They also took 150 mg of tramadol 3 times a day. I said one of my hounds with cancer was Mousie..I was wrong. Mousie is well and good..It was Huck and Lady that I lost to bone cancer. I let Huck go three days after diagnosis, but I kept Lady for several months after diagnosis..I would not do that again. I would let her go.
  15. Mousie had just about all of her disks replaced with stainless steal ones. It gave her another couple of very good years. But, then I lost her to bone cancer.
  16. Has the vet checked her teeth? One of mine had a cracked molar when he came to me and that was after a dental. Also, I put Honest Kitchen (thin like a gravy) in with the kibble. My Galgos do not like dry kibble. I also buy sardines in water at the Dollar General - $1.00 per can- and put a little in each meal. One little can last me about 3 days with two dogs. Mine also love yogurt (plain with not sugar) mixed in their food. I have only used the expensive food sold at the vets one time and that was for a dog that had IBD and I had no choice. I did have a Grey that stopped eating, but she had advanced bone cancer. I learned a lesson on that one and will not keep a dog around for very long with cancer again.
  17. I am with what JohnF said. He needs to be the only animal in the house.
  18. I agree, you may be spending a lot of money. Both of my greyhounds wore TheraPaws. I may still have one and would be glad to send it to you. How much does your Grey weigh?? That would help me send you the correct size. If you privately send me the size and your snail mail address, I will mail one to you.
  19. I pour a little Honest Kitchen gravy on top of their food. Keeps them cleaning their bowls.
  20. Where else is there to stay? I read that Sidney James was full.
  21. You can check out Alldaychemist.com or canadianpharmacy.com Prices a way cheaper than in the USA.
