persephone

Where I live, folks often drive to towns sometimes a 6 hr round trip for less expensive prices...there is a mobile vet , but obviously she cannot do surgeries etc , but she is in high demand for ordinary things.

Our old girl, Dulcie, used to be a top sheep dog , many years ago. She now is free-range and sleeps on a bed in the porch . Deaf as a post , and her bark is husky , but she still thinks she is young, and gets some speed happening when the pack is moving! Every so often she will trot the 300 mtrs to the river and have a paddle , or search for suitable smelly dead fish ... She quite often barks at things in the night LOL , and keeps me company in the (outside) loo. What warmed my heart was the other day, when she devoured a WHOLE rabbit - leaving just the tail !! It took her a while , but she ate the lot - and her tea that night! ( rabbit calicivirus goes thru the local population every so often, and provides the dogs with a smorgasbord!!)

She's not good at obedience!

hi You HAVE been through it - you poor thing Glad you are now feeling much better and are getting back into partnership with your boy Yes, urine will smell much less some time after desexing It takes a little while for hormone levels to drop after castration ...but you should notice a big difference . He is definitely a handsome boy , and much loved.

Another rottweiler

I am so sorry for your loss . It does sound like 1080 Some years ago I lost my little dog in a similar fashion. A bird must have dropped a poison bait in our yard , and she picked it up . It was dreadful to witness.

That is very odd...

I honestly didn't think dogs & cats were trafficked! thought that was for exotic animals only .Hope the rescued animals will be OK .

She did amazingly well ! Smoke, one our boys survived over a week in similar country...but months is incredible.I hope she has pups, to pass all that on !

I agree with this .

many years ago, a guide dog in training attacked a child ...and a necropsy revealed a brain tumour .he was a lovely dog - and yes, just 'snapped'

Hmmm- I wonder if she will comply with the new rules ?

Very True!!

It sounds like more going on than a painful injection I would be concerned of sudden onset dementia..agressive behaviour, including biting, can be a symptom.

Lovely article LINK HERE

That is amazing , Deeds - thanks

I have only ever used phenergan - but it makes them a bit sleepy.

awww...what a lucky boy he is I wish him much running!

Poor, poor dogs

She needs meat on the bone, so she uses all her teeth to get it off ..not just a two crunch chicken neck

Oh So sad...
