Johnny does not like other big dogs--he would play with all the little dogs if he could! He snarks at dogs who take too long on the greetings, I kept him muzzled during BBH. I did consult with a dog trainer, she said he was telling other dogs to back off in dog language, and to keep the greetings short as possible and PRAISE and reward if he got sniffed and didn't react. Also, we kept him and Momo and Spirit muzzled when we had to stay with them, irritating for them, but it kept everyone safe and mostly snark free! I also asked an animal communicator why he didn't like other dogs, she said he saw another grey get attacked and pointed to the shoulder that bothers him--go figure.

TAYLOR!!!

Johnny is a world class chatterer when walkies (or a car ride!) are imminent! There's a video on YouTube where the grey is chattering while being petted, check it out.

Yes, mast cell can release histamines. My oldest cat has it, he takes cyproheptadine every 48 hrs for it.

We you, Taylor, now and forever!

Mounting can be a dominance behavior for males AND females. My Lab (long since spayed) tried to hump my #3 cat when she was a teeny kitten, that was funny as hell!

Would a nice heating pad help? Maybe just one of the self heating ones that has foil in the middle?

Johnny refused to use the crate after a month or so, I muzzled him until I felt I could trust him with the cats.

It's deadly for cats, but too much can damage anyone's liver. Usually the vets use COX-2 inhibitors or NSAIDs, never heard of giving a dog Tylenol!

Tanzi, you are superb!

Sort-Quick. It's pink in the container.

Tanzi, you are beautiful! But no lik-lik, then you'll have to wear a cone of shame!

to you. Glad you were able to have a little more time with her.

to you and yours.

Know this is late, but I started a 12.5 lb (6 kilos or so?) of Purina ONE Grain Free Chicken & Sweet Potato about 3 weeks ago, I'll probably finish it tomorrow. He gets about a cup and a half, plus half a can of wet 2x a day. He's about 80lbs.

Returned for LAZY?? Someone didn't read the owner's manual... I wonder if she'd like a flirt pole. Our local greyhound group has a monthly walk--is that something you guys have? I know some groups have playgroups; she doesn't have to play, but I think just hanging around the other greys may be good for her.

Tanzi the unstoppable!

Yeah! Awesome! But you know the .

Very sorry to hear this--it happens in cats, too, and the result is never good. Hoping you have a good outcome.

We ❤ Taylor!

I believe they're in the UK.

Super! It's so funny when vets tell you to keep a pet calm after surgery...

Greetings! There's a Merlin who posts in the Wurld Famuss Unruly Boys Chat Club threads--maybe you can cast spells at each other?? PS--da Club is for everyone, drop on in!

Awesome!

Thanks! The Composure chews work, but he will NOT take them if he has already started getting anxious (and they're expensive compared to the capsules). The landscapers have showed up on several different days now, so I'm trying to get him primed for their arrival. I thought about doing the DAP collar, I may try it in the future.
