  1. In his twilight ,if all he wants to eat is steak & eggs , cream buns , or fish & chips - I'd give it to him , were he mine :)
  2. this is Boof - he lives next door :)
  3. nekh - the belladonna is in a homeopathic dose ..... scientifically there would be no trace of the chemical found .
  4. I would seriously doubt a 'calmative' like ltryptophan/B complex would make aggression vanish. Over time, I would hope to see some relaxing happening, allowing you to use the training better :) One dog being aggressive to another doesn't mean the aggressor is uptight , or stressed , AFAIK .The younger dog may ,indeed be calm & confident - in wanting the other dog GONE . Thanks for updating :)
  5. All being well there will be photos - and again, all being well, he will want to earn his living, and stay here !
  6. Mr Accidental will hopefully be a goat/sheep worker ..and will sleep outside like everyone else :) His mum is only young, but a fantastic little worker, as was/is her mum! - so hopefully he gets that from her!
  7. Whilst I believe homeopathy has its uses - no way would I use it as a "vaccination" for anything
  8. it may have broken - but I reckon the vet would need to be a good entomologist to choose between several types of insects which have stings ;) Either way - I hope you now have a good plan for next time :)
  9. The yellow flakes look to me like there has been a serum oozing from inflamed skin ..this has dried, and the yellow remains . Lots of betadine :)
  10. Wasps do not lose their stings as they are not barbed like those of bees ..they sting multiple times, then fly away . Bees lose their stingers, and intestines , and die .... I am glad he is feeling better . I never laugh at allergic reactions - AFAIK , with a lot of what you can SEE - there is often the same swelling happening inside the body - not funny at all . ( yes, a party pooper, sorry)
  11. Shanks are OK if you watch him ..and take them away once he has eaten all the meat :) they are hard and can splinter, yes. NON weight bearing bones are better - they don't splinter , and can be all nicely crunched up :) Try turkey wings/necks!! mine love them :)
  12. ..and until you get blood test results /diagnosis ... perhaps leave off consulting the herbal nutritionist ..... is he on any herbal medication/supplements?
  13. Ok - get the vet to do bloods& urine tests ... this time . - if he's anaemic it could be from all sorts of things , and it seems now a matter of urgency to have him thoroughly checked .It would be good to have an answer - a relief for you. pale may be his colour .. but the vet will test . Oh - have you spoken with his breeder at all ? has pup had a heartworm injection or anything ? best of luck .
  14. Try to not get so wound up - THIS alone, will be affecting pup, who now has a bad vibe from food /feeding time wherever he is relaxed ..be it outside , or in a room ... leave him with a couple of different MEATY bones ,some vegemite toast, some grated cheese , and a bowl full of the kibble . do NOT hover , or babytalk, or try & keep him close to you to eat. Do not even LOOK at him ..just carry on about your daily routine ..and see what happens over the next hour or two keep your other dog crated or tied ....but still in sight of pup. poor pup - he now sees feeding time as torture ....
  15. I suspect they are just playful - maybe it's cooler- maybe they've been somewhere new- maybe they have just had a good day :)
  16. how often do you notice the behaviour? If she is in season , it should only be twice a year .
