Re: Ticks - cannot find them but our Chow has them!

don't use seresto.. I think 2 of my chow chows got cancer from it. Mast cell and gastric lymphoma... may be a coincidence though. I have been using nexgard and get the lyme vaccine and after walks I do a blow out and pick sometimes 10 or more off them.

Re: alternate pooping spot when rains

Chow chows don't like to poop anywhere near their living quarters..... they typically like to poop far away.. this is their natural instinct as when it comes to poop or pee, you will notice they try to get away from it. Don't you have a park or field close by that you can walk your chow chow?

Re: Sheena's Oral Melanoma-No Metastasis! YAY

My 8.5 year old Rossi has been diagnosed with Oral melanoma. I found a little bump two years ago and had asked the dentist to look at it. He never mentioned it so I assumed it was nothing. A few weeks ago, I noticed while he was panting that it was growing. Rossi has osteoarthritis and so he needed ...
