I unlocked the thread. The last several comments sounded past tense and sympathetic, implying... well you know. Glad Charlie is hanging in there.

I am so sorry for the loss of your beloved Bella.

I am so very sorry for the loss of your guy. He was greatly loved and he knew it for sure.

I have a friend with a grey who is in her mid teens that eats pro plan every day and always has (well except for kennel life). She is healthy as can be. ...and odds are good a dog in her mid teens ate Purina Hi-Pro crap mixed with her 4-D meat, veggies and vitamins at the track...and probably something cheaper on the farm growing up. I've never seen stacks of Evo grain free bags on a farm. Why would the long lived dog being a greyhound matter? Greyhounds are dogs. Dogs are dogs.

Greyhound baldness has nothing to do with their training, stress, or crates. It's very much like people balding, luck of the draw.

I hate a harness, hate them. Yet I use a harness as a back up safety for my spooks. Leash is attached to the collar, collar and harness is attached together by a safety strap. I walk and control the dog with the collar and leash. If the spook skips his martingale, he is still attached to the harness. Also, try 1.5 inch collar with a wrap-around tagbag from LDL. The collar is not that heavy and the tagbag keeps the tags wrapped around the collar in one spot.

Wwaaayyyy cooolll!!!

Kibble that I wet.

Kari uses one I believe.

Yup, what Chris said. Tetracycline teeth.

Bummer Dude, I have to work that day. Well, guess I'll just have to keep my drugs for another deal eerrr sale hhmmm mortgage paym aahhhh YEAR!! That's it, another year!!

All of "my" personal prescriptions have "magically" expired one year to the date that they are filled. I am not sure if I have any recent dog drugs from my Vet. I will check when I get home. The most recent "dog" scripts we had, were filled at Walgreen. They also "expire" one year to the day of filling.

:yay

:nod

Pretty typical and not breed specific either.

run a search for spook in this forum and you will find a lot of information. Here is a link about a spooky dog.

Barn shy. Keep walking him and vary your route. Keep a few treats by the door so that as soon as you drag him inside, you can reward him. And after all that, have a shot or two of an adult beverage.

I have tons of pictures of my cats and greys interacting together.

10mg was the advice from my holistic Vet.

You can add a bit of chicken broth or tuna water to her water and see if it entices her. Also, maybe move the bowl or bucket to another location in the pen. Who knows, maybe she "thought" she saw something near the bowl that she didn't like. You know, like of of those "greyhound killer attack shadows!" :lol Danger is our spook and he has some "killer shadow" issues, among all his other issues. Anyway, we came back from a vacation and for the life of me, I could not get him to come in the garage after a potty romp. We would have to go outside and herd him in the door and he ran through it like a scalded chicken. After a lot of frustration on our part, I realized that our petsitter had moved a plastic chair so she could sit while the dogs were outside. He was freaked out about it. Weird dog. I guess my point is we never know what little thing may "bother" them. I am not a "leave our dogs outside" person, but I know that Danger would stay outside if given the chance. I have to drag him inside now after 10 minutes in the yard. And Disco would stay out also. But Dicso would be too lazy to get up and drink. :rofl

Always a full water dish here.

Dremal directions.
