Death Of Dog After Westminister Leaves Handler Suspicious

It would be very unusual for a dog to haemorrhage just after the ingestion of some rodenticides ...AFAIK it takes a little while to affect the clotting of the blood - depending. If dog had eaten some in kennels at home or somewhere the maximum effect would have been 'helped along' by the stress/exercise of being shown.... IMO. No autopsy is very odd....... -
:) Poss is my 'outside ' dog... not a house dog ..she's a ratbag , weighs about 12 kg wringing wet and loves cuddles and working sheep ....

10 Month Old Gsd With Severe Hip Dysplasia
persephone replied to bianca.a's topic in Health / Nutrition / Grooming
Glad he's home :) , and I am sure once he is used to the routine, he will enjoy the convalescing bit :) If you are home with him ..I suggest he will be much more settled not in a crate ... I worry about crates/coneheads & massive surgery & limbs not being able to be as flexible as they should.... I have seen/heard dogs really hurt themselves trying to turn around /get comfortable ..either legs /knees hit the wire, or they try & twist around ..cone hits wire , & dog loses some spatial knowledge , & maybe twists a limb th e wrong way -
Oakley looked lovely :) I hope his sister copes OK now .. for you ....

I like it when dogs "flea" me like that :)

Hey, pesh ..to practice with on the cheap, why not try something like this ? LINK. I have a set that I use sometimes on my Canon :)

answering without seeing him, obviously a confident and dominant dog may show similar behaviour ...... his behaviour may not be 'puppyish' ...

Thankyou, folks.....

AS Pyometra is an infection ... I would think heredity plays little part in it? We have had 3 bitches with pyo over the (many, many) years, a couple have had mammary tumours .. while they may not be common , they are a life threatening problem ....

Supplements For A Raw Diet
persephone replied to Dory the Doted One's topic in Health / Nutrition / Grooming
Dory should do ok with a good variety of meats/bones ... red/white/fish, plus egg -
maybe use his normal food then, instead of treats ? hat way he gets his meal by doing good stuff ..and being rewarded :)
-
is it on a special diet ? Any allergies? dried apple popcorn Low fat options..... ? those dried lung treats.... kangaroo jerky would be very low fat ... or dry your own roo meat ! flavoured sunrice rice crackers - the caramel ones go down very well here :)
-
Well Done !! :) Onward & Upward ....

Has Anyone Else Had A Dog Doing This?
persephone replied to mantis's topic in General Dog Discussion
I've seen it a lot ....with varying success :) -
It's those little moments which grab , isn't it ? ....
-
I can smell him .. wet .... He was such a sooky la-la - with his fan at nights ,so he didn't keep me awake with his puffing :p and an ice brick pillow when really hot ....and jammies, blankets & hot water bottles in Winter .... Some tough bush dog - NOT .
-
No wet dog shivering at the door , or looking for his 'jammies' or leaving yeti sized muddy prints on the floor ...( he didn't have an undercoat to speak of and got cold really quickly ...) I just saw teh rain, and thought that I should get Hammy in and put another cushion on the bed under the kitchen table for him....
