  1. I'd keep an eye on her, but if she wants to walk and doesn't seem to be in pain, let her walk Just watch her pretty carefully, if they love their walks, the signs may be subtle. I didn't cut back on Sugar's walks until I noticed her hesitating/slowing down about half way through the walk. Now, I let her say if she wants to walk or not, and we only go a few houses down the street, but when she wants to, we still walk!

    I am so sorry!
  3. I also had a "yard cat", Bud, that wouldn't come in the house. You do the best you can for them
  4. what a handsome boy! I am so sorry
  5. someone on GT explained this very well a while back, and of course, I don't remember who Anyway, my paraphrasing: as the food moves through the digestive system, a lot of the liquid is absorbed in the large intestine. So, when the dog goes the first time, he's producing what's been through the system and is "ready". If he goes again (and Fletcher poops at least twice on every walk), it's going to be softer because it (the poop) hasn't been in the intestine as long, and all the liquid hasn't been absorbed. So, each poop, assuming the first was normal, will be softer. I know I have put this very unscientifically, but it made sense to me
  6. Sugar is on .4 twice a day, has been at that dose for about a year and a half. Oddly, she has plenty of fur on her tummy, neck, butt, everywhere. Fletcher, whose thyroid is fine, has very little hair "underneath"
  7. one of the best greyhound photos ever.
  8. Poor Alan! I hope he doesn't mind you peering at his privates all day They must think we are such weirdos
  9. Sorry I didn't see this yesterday! Fletcher wears this harness and is between L and XL. I use the XL for him because he has the "stocky" greyhound build, but if your dog is the lean and rangy type, you would probably do better with the L. The D ring should go just behind the sholders, so that the velvet part is straight up the sides of his body, if that makes sense? The WWW people are very nice about helping you adjust the harness if you call them, but it sounds like you really do need the smaller size
  10. and and chanting for Polli (one of my GT favorites) and of course Beau also!
