  1. I hope he does well and if feeling all better soon. I would have to question an artery, it would seem to me that the dog would never have made it out of the office alive if an artery was left bleeding. Doctors and Veterinarians and Nurses and Vet Techs all make errors, they are humans, so try not to think too badly of the vet.
  2. I'm so very sorry. My Phantom had about 4 weeks after he first started limping. Not nearly long enough.
  3. Honestly, I think I've used every kind that is made, from fresh factors (and other stuff by Springtime) to the Level 5000 to Claudias and to the stuff from the drug store and probably at least 6 or 7 others. I honestly don't think one is better than another as I didn't see any difference in my dogs when I changed products and gave the same dosage. Some are more convenient and some more expensive, but what I eventually settled on was the level 5000 because it was a higher concentrate (less to give the dogs) and my dogs didn't mind it and it worked fine. My suggestion is to buy the one you can most easily get ahold of as you won't have to worry so much when you are almost out, as in having to order it online and then the dogs being out for a few days etc. Go for convenience and affordability.

  5. What a handsome guy he was. I'm so sorry.
  6. I'm so very sorry this happened and sendyour Cafe lots of good thoughts and prayers for quick healing. I had a seizure dog and my dogs would pack up if he had a seizure. If I wasn't right there by them, I muzzled everyone. Crating for the seizure dog wasn't an option due to his having huge issues with being crated/separation anxiety etc. Even with muzzling, the pack would still run to him if he seized and they'd still try to gang up on him, so if you can crate, I think it would be the safest option, but be aware that these dogs can still bite through the wires of a crate etc. and if you muzzle, they can still use their feet.

  10. Excellent! I'm glad you like him.
  11. If it's a people drug like my Lulu's prozac, I get it at the local Safeway or Walmart, you can get a 90 supply of prozac there for the 9.99 so that works well. I have bought many drugs for myself and my dogs from India and Australia. Both countries have their own drug standards that are very high and I have had no problem at all with these drugs. Even with shipping added, the drugs are so much less expensive that it's worth it for me.

  18. In my yard my greyhounds are fine, my yard is small, only muzzles are for those who eat poop . When they used to go out running in a large area, they AWLAYS wore muzzles, no exceptions as did any other dogs greyhounds or not, they wore muzzles too. Greyhounds are taught to chase, they love to chase, they love to run and they are competative by nature AND by training. I don't do dog parks due to the issue of poop everywhere and worm infested poop, unmuzzled dogs etc. Greyhounds are not the only dogs who can have issues with small dogs. Muzzles are cheap and honestly I've never had a greyhound who objected to the muzzle for more than a minute or two. When I had fosters coming and going, all dogs wore muzzles in the house for the duration of the foster's stay, I had more than 45 fosters and none of them were bitten or bit my dogs, they wore muzzles. I still have 2 dogs who have to be muzzled when I leave because they tend to get into stuff they shouldn't if they aren't muzzled. Also I have a 14 year old greyhound and and I worry about them attacking her if she should fall etc. (yep, I know that they can do severe damage with their feet if they wanted to, I pray that they never do) Bottom line, better to be safe than sorry and also, I can't afford a lot of vet bills to repair injured dogs.
  19. There are many supplements out there that may help or they may not, but it usually takes about 4 - 6 weeks to know if they help or not. I would think if you want something that acts quickly, then you are going to have to ask your vet to prescribe something. And if he does, make sure to ask for generic if possible and do your homework to see if you can find it cheaper online (you'll need a written prescription probably), or if you vet will match prices from online. If price is an issue, be sure to let your vet know, he might be able to find something that's not so pricey and that will work. Good luck.
  20. Was it Jen Howard? She did a memory box for me of my Frasier. http://members.tripod.com/~AikoGrey/MemoryBox.html Oh and I forgot to mention that it's wonderful!!!
  21. I'm so very sorry for your loss. Godspeed Clark.
  22. My greyhound Cali has been on Rimadyl for over a year. If she weren't, she'd not be with me. I cannot believe how much of a difference it makes in her life, she's over 14 now and still runs up the ramp to my deck occasionally when she feels frisky.
  23. Tried all the non-prescription remidies... not one bit of luck, nothing but a terrified dog. Tried wraps and such and the thunder cape helped at first and now nothing. Tried Valium and Xanax, nothing when in theraputic range. Finally tried ace and it worked, and worked well. Now the storms here aren't all that long (though they are way more violent than Ohio) a little benedryl works fine for us, and now that the dogs are all seniors, I feel better about benedryl vs. ace.
