Re: peeing in house

I was just wondering how Maggie was, Nikki had crystals in her urine which caused blood also and we did for a while have some UTI issues but seemed to clear after a change in food and more water to her foods.( she was not a good water drinker so I added it to her foods)., Hopefully Maggie's on the m...

Re: peeing in house

Michael , Maggie should get checked out by your vet. There are a few things that come to mind when a dog starts unusual peeing , best to check her out so you know what your dealing with! Check her water intake is she drinking more or less than usual and let the Vet know this if there is a change . G...

Re: flea treatment

I just was getting Bella's flea stuff out when you posted and the same thoughts came to mind ( I guess cause the temps dipped down last night) I too would love to hear what others do! I hate the chemicals for the dogs.

Re: Fur bitting that won't stop

Dust is a hard one to eliminate for sure.. I would ask my vet about switching cause you don't want to cause more problems if he really thinks its dust and not food.. We switched our golden retriever to bison when she was a pup around 8 months, cause she had a problem with chicken and corn. It took a...

Re: Does Anyone Let Their Chow Walk Without a Leash?

THis was something we never really accomplished. She was fine in a controlled class or in the backyard (fenced in). But once outside the yard it was game on .. The grass was greener anywhere else but home.. I know you aren't suppose to chase a dog when they run away ,but when they are running to the...
