Bunny-hopping may also signal a luxating patella ... not a hip problem . Supplements will not be of assistance here .

That's how all ours get pills ( modified according to size ) LOL Wouldn't do it any other way . It's fast, sure and easy ... takes someone to show you the correct way ..and off you go!!

If it's a dog .. ...

the people HERE or HERE may be able to advise you .

I have always used a muzzle ..a soft , open basket-type .. so they can still drink , bark, pant ...Mind you my dogs have not been left alone with stitches in .

Hmmm.. onesies . the fabric may catch on stitch ends and pull ..irritating the wound .... make sure the garment is not tight fitting . Probably unsuitable to leave on an unsupervised pup , too much to chew etc .

Dogs adjust to the prevention collars OK ..humans - not so good :P

This is a surprisingly common occurrence .... They cannot /would not associate the two .....eating the cloth, and pain on toileting ;)

..and do some more googling, and you find this ;)

Dags in his nice new hi-vis collar from K9 pro !! Not often I buy new things ..these were on sale ..yayyy!! I also bought a new 'longline' as my other one has finally unravelled and become unusable it lasted years!! Bought it from a DOler . the new gear is made of Syn Tek ..my first experience with said product ... so we shall see. I DO like the fact that it does not attract prickles/dirt/moisture (Snaphooks are on all collars . It means a dog can quickly be secured with reasonable safety almost anywhere ..on a jeans belt loop, a fence wire, a piece of twine..even a tree root ..and still have a swivel to turn with. )

I wouldn't trust him left alone . not yet. Blood & bone can be deadly ..plus, yes, it can lead to LOTS of digging.

It has brought you much pleasure and pride....That's great. It looks good..such a cute pose :)Thanks for sharing.

Agree

I remember them from last time !!

thought I'd sneak this in ... The Boss, our Dad (88 yrs young) & Me today, for Father's Day ...

oh! There are those beautiful hands, too ;) ..perfect for displaying little morsels like these girls

Ohhh my!

Hello..she needs to see a vet ASAP . Blood loss for so long is not a good sign at all.., and is a drain on the old girl's resources . Hope it can be sorted successfully for you .

She is coming to 4 mths old ..and is doing SO well he said she never barks ...and she went running to him when he called .. he loves her a lot , calls her his 'little girl' (tough trucker) and she sleeps in their bedroom at home . I couldn't be more pleased Nice when even ONE thing goes right . ;)

One of our pups now lives life as a truckie pup/dog today she came for a visit as her 'dad' dropped off some sheep food . She remembered us ..looks good and is nice & settled . Got Dags to pose on top of the Grape Marc heap just because ...

You can always buy a desexed male two bitches may well fight

They are fantastic photos again ....

exactly ...cats breed at such a rate ...kittens are hidden away until they are able to run - they sadly become pregnant while still babies - and on it goes , while well meaning cat owners STILL believe their tiddles or fluffy-bum NEEDS to roam outside . I was once like that ..a lifetime ago in the big City Cats out during daytime/locked away at night . That proved to be not enough for their safety , and(over a period of 15 yrs) losing one to an irate neighbour , one to a nasty driver , and almost losing another to a car - having worked with cats suffering feline AIDS , seeing pregnant kittens, cats & possums after fights, & various other things ..a 24/7 cat curfew cannot come quick enough . That, and a big crackdown on ferals to help wildlife in urban areas especially ! Birdscaping is becoming so popular , and is SUCH a wonderful thing to do ,but sadly we have an army of predators taking advantage of backyards full of nests/fledglings/birds with full bellies, or so overweight they are a bit slow . Cats are glorious animals , they belong in a protected environment to be cossetted and loved and kept from both being a danger , and from encountering danger. A whole 'nother subject is the feral cat problem in Outback Australia ..where they can grow as big as a small kelpie ..can take down baby lambs/goat kids , and are quite capable of arguing with foxes. Heart-stoppingly beautiful to watch when they are hunting - but so, so destructive and deadly apologies .. this was way off-topic

There are way too many cats , and those who roam, causing wildlife deaths , spreading toxo , feline AIDS, producing kittens each Spring ..it's out of control I love cats , and know the best place for them is safely enclosed in an owner's home , themselves protected , and in turn, keeping wildlife safe from predation

Another here who believes in mixing it up as much as you can so he is kept "off the boil" ....
