  1. Where are you located? A couple of tablespoons of pumpkin should be fine. Rice -- I don't feed it anymore with diarreha. Probably 1/2c. Yogurt -- are you sure he can tolerate dairy products? If so, put in a couple of tablespoons. I prefer acidolphillus pills. What kibble are you feeding? Did you switch recently? Is he neutered?
  2. Are you absolutely sure? Something is in that part of the yard or the workers are using it for a bathroom. If she can see them, can they see her? Some people can be not very nice to animals. Must they be there while you are not home?
  3. I'm assuming this is new behavior and did not occur in prior summers. Burp did that. I waited two days and took him to the vet. He was in congestive heart failure. I'd run him in for a check up.
  4. Chiropractic adjustments, acupuncture and supplements would help a lot!
  5. Sending my sympathy and hugs.
  6. Anything is possible. I would mention it to the vet in the morning before you start up the meds again.
  7. I buy it at Whole Foods or a health food store. Heart was on it for a long time. One a day (I gave it in the capsule form)
  8. If you and the gas tank can do 7 hours, he might be able to. I'd ask them. To me the less in and out of the van, the better. Hopefully he will have good drugs on board
  9. Be careful with aspirin on an empty stomach! Make sure you give food with it and it should be ascriptin.
  10. Sending many prayers, and my seemingly constant question: has he had a tick panel done?
  11. There are a lot of Bravo! dealers in your state: http://www.bravorawdiet.com/cgi-bin/bravo/search.pl This place carries frozen BilJac: I.M. K-9 Training 760 W Chestnut St Brockton, MA 02301 Phone: 508-588-5661 Dry Dog Food, Frozen Dog Food, Dog Treats The also carry Solid Gold so should have the "wonderful stinky" canned tripe. Picky ones: Innova senior was good, BilJac kibble, EVO reduced fat (they make a beef) On a few I've had to put a half can of IAMs beef in with the frozen BilJac. These two carry Merrick canned: Bridgewater Farm Supply 1000 Plymouth ST, Bridgewater, MA 02324 508-697-1995 Colonial Pet Foods 31 Perkins ST, Bridgewater, MA 02324 I get one of each flavor until it's decided which one is good
  12. Is she on kibble or raw? Can you get Merrick canned and Solid Gold canned? EVO reduced fat is good.
  13. Sending prayers. I've had good luck with pred in all the dogs I've used it on. I believe if the pred is needed, they do well. Certainly some will have side effects that are not desirable. Since I was on it for 6 years I know what the effects can be (can you say gain 50# in 3 months?--and no, it doesn't fall off when you stop the pred ) Have you had an acupuncture vet look at him?
  14. If you email me I will send you Dr. Feeman's "greyhound idiosyncrasies" From one of his other papers:
