  1. So sorry Conrad Conrad got nasty osteo and I missed your posts about him. Glad you are feeling better, and welcome to Bisbee!

  3. Shocking for you. Hoping for the best possible outcome for your girlie.
  4. It is never long enough...God speed your sweet Brandy.
  5. She’s gorgeous! Welcome to you both!
  6. Can’t help you with your query, but condolences on the loss of your beloved canine. Horrible to see them suffer.

  8. Our Oakley has noise phobia related to big trucks, garbage pickup etc. She is on 20mg of prozac, it took months to kick in, but she is much better. In your situation Frito might also benefit from the addition of a stable Broody! Good luck!
  9. Godspeed, sweet Allen. You were a lucky boy to grace Ducky's home..
  10. Welcome from th frozen North! Great pics. Is Foley a girl?
  11. Oakley had her opthamology recheck today for her Progressive Retinal Atrophy, and we are celebrating! Her doctor found no evidence of a deterioration in her vision since her last visit, although she definately has retinal changes. Yay for an atypical presentation! 🍷🍺
  12. Are you sure her vision is okay? 2-3 is when Progressive Retinal Atrophy sets in...(says the mother of a PRA hound...)
  13. Twenty-one people in Maple Ridge are being vaccinated for rabies after a cat in the Lower Mainland city was diagnosed with the disease. It's the first confirmed case of rabies in a domestic animal in B.C. since 1969, say health officials, who suspect the cat was bitten by a bat. "In British Columbia, we really only have rabies ongoing in the bat population, so this is likely an exposure of the cat to a bat," said the Fraser Health Authority's Dr. Larry Gustafson. Dr. Michael Orser, a veterinarian,said themale cat was brought in to his animal hospital last week. One of his legs was paralyzed,he was unco-ordinated and exceptionally aggressive, and clawed at the vet, drawing blood. "If you touched anywhere near his head or neck area, it would want to attack. We, of course, had difficulty handling it, so we had to give it some sedation to take some blood samples," said Orser. The first tests were inconclusive, he said, but a second set of blood samples came back positive for rabies. The cat had to be euthanized. ...not saying that there *may* be a problem with over vaccination, not in my experience however; all my vets have been forthcoming that annual rabies shots are excessive. My point is that these posts come dangerously close to throwing the baby out with the bathwater. Thank you Racindog for acknowledging that vaccines can and do save many human and canine lives.
