  1. I think the Mighty Hunter will get her meal, regardless
  2. Hang in there Milo, you’re still one tough guy
  3. they know how to beat the heat! But you better keep your Visa away from LaVida if you let her watch QVC
  4. Lamb does seem to be a protein that some dogs like and some can not tolerate. I can’t comment on a brand of kibble except to say many dogs seem to do well on Purina. From what I understand from my vet and some of the articles I have read, the problem with grain free is not the lack of grain but the unusual things they add to replace the grain. There has to be something to add bulk and act as a binder to make kibble. The issue is still being investigated, though, and something may change later. Plenty of dogs have eaten grain free foods for years with no problem, but at this point if I was feeding kibble I would not go grain free.
  5. Some dogs loose interest in breakfast as they get older, especially in the summer. If he eventually finishes and is still eating his dinner with gusto, it may just be a change in his habits. I would keep an eye on him and if anything else changes, I would think it was time for a vet visit, but for now, just watch
  6. I am sorry to hear of Zoe’s passing. I am sure Rocket and Petunia are there waiting for her.
  7. A little late to the discussion, but I will just add my A loose martingale is next to useless in controlling a frightened/aggressive/over-active dog, so be sure yours is fitted correctly. I personally found a harness a much better option for my leash reactive 90lb greyhound. I could hold him next to me (which helped calm him) and not worry about him injuring his neck when he leapt around like a fish on the end of the line I have the 2Hounds harness mentioned above and it worked great. Actually, I had two, but gave one away. They do have velvet, I think so they don’t rub on that fragile greyhound skin. They are somewhat adjustable, but at 11 months your girl will probably grow a bit more. If you call 2Hounds they are very helpful with choosing the size you would need. I have never needed the double leads, pretty sure I am not coordinated enough to manage but I know some people who have. All that said, it sounds like a properly fitted martingale might be all you need for now.
  8. For years I have had to use the open mouth, shove in pill(s) for Val. For small pills I use a cheese slice to wrap several together, for a big sucker like Drontal, just one at a time. Fortunately I still have all my fingers
  9. I will have had Val for 7 years in October, but when she went off her Heartgard last year she came up positive for hooks . Fortunately a mild case and she seems negative again as long as she stays on the Advantage Multi, which is good because the Drontal really did a number on her. But that is what I mean, you can’t escape!
  10. I don’t think you can escape, but if he still has good poops at least he may not have a bad case
  11. Congratulations! Max, you are safe now
  12. Happy Birthday Opal! Love those old gals
  13. I hear MickyD’s is giving away free French fries tomorrow in Rocket’s honor! Ok, maybe because of French fry day, and I am sure there is some catch, like with a large drink or something, but still.
  14. Arizona poutine I think Mark would be down with that!
