Hopefully the police will follow through, with charging her for criminal negligence as well

Any dog attack sickens me, but this particular one really made my blood boil Not only was it in an on lead area but apparently the owner had said "If you see my dogs coming, make sure you stand up" not long before the dogs attacked On top of that, the owner left the scene It also might not have been the first time these dogs had been threatening/attacked. I hope the owner gets the maximum fines.

I titre test my two every year, also through VetPath. My vet charges $75, but we're lucky and just down the road from VetPath so no postage. Just got the latest results and both are still showing >1:80 for both parvo and distemper. They haven't been vaccinated since the booster they had at 15 months of age, back in August 2010 Mine aren't really around lots of dogs, just small training classes, and we don't go to busy dog places either :)

There may be other online places where if you supply a script you can get medications much cheaper, but here's the one I know of. though haven't actually used it myself. Atopica(Cyclosporin) is much, much cheaper than you're paying :) Atopica at Petceutics

I just found that The Pet Chef, in Midland, sells Beef Tripe (Green)

I've been told there is a guy at a weekend market that sells it(might have been Subiaco, which have just closed ) I'll be in contact with the woman that told me tomorrow, so will let you know ASAP :) Natural Paws sells the K9 Natural - Frozen Green Tripe

I hadn't seen the canned food with tripe in it before, so was hoping it might be a new "taste" for him. A CRF group I'm in say green tripe is usually the best thing for the CRF dogs, once they begin not wanting to eat, as it's stinky and rarely refused, so was hoping it might tempt Danny :)

ZiwiPeak do a canned Tripe, Lamb and Venison I've read that it's highly palatable and enticing, maybe Danny would be interested in it? :)

When the Ingleburn Vet Antihistamine Sheet was removed I found this one http://communityvet.net/2009/07/diy-antihistamines/ hopefully it helps :)

I found my two can push the flap open, even when bolted shut Not a sliding door, but for my back door I put one of the bunnings compost panels on the inside, folded at the edges to fit in the frame. It bends easily, so removing it is quick :) Maybe something like that would work? It obviously keeps them outside when needed too :D

Just thought I would add a link I still have book marked(that I found years ago) that has a bit of info, link for video and pictures, and the References the info was collected from :) http://www.pets.ca/forum/showthread.php?t=67934

Electra was laying with the ice pack most of the time, she also didn't really want to sit much, especially in the first few days I'll send the link in a pm now :)

Electra was quite uncomfortable for about a week, from memory. I let her sit on tea towels which were wrapped around bags of ice and she seemed to appreciate that most of the time. I also think as it's changed the whole feel of the area, it look her that long to get used to it...she's very sensitive like that though, so may be different for your girl. I have an album on facebook with pictures and the odd comment about her journey if you'd like a to have a look :)

My girl had all the same problems and had the surgery when she was about 22 months old. I also struggled to find much info about it! Hope her recovery is quick :)

I watched the 9 news report last night, the link I posted was from earlier in the day. Apparently they man spent a bit of time tossing treats to Beau, gaining his trust I really hope with all the news/internet coverage, the owner gets Beau back!

9 news have a video of the news segment The facebook video https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=10152529014853173

The only dry food I could find is Hills k/d Royal Canin, is a canned one. Will be watching this thread with hope that there is more options!

She has also just posted on a reply to a question on the Team Dog post as well. Someone asked "how were they able to rehome him if he had a dedtruction order as the council seized the dog...can anyone shed light on this..is it fact" Lynette Mcilveen I can. Council are giving Hugo back to the owners because the council had no right to take him. The family are happy to have him relocated to Cairns as a side step to ensure that there is no further ramifications placed on the Council for the unlawful empounding and order of destruction placed on Hugo and Hugo's family. If council made the correct decison they would not give Hugo back or rehome him. 27 minutes ago · Like · 1 .. Lynette Mcilveen Further more the owner of the dog is the owner and will remain the owner of the dog.

I have a fairly young dog (5&1/2 yrs) who was also diagnosed with very early stage kidney problems/disease She's been put on the Hills k/d and I've found a couple of places online that are much better priced, than getting it direct from vets. Also it's a bit cheaper buying the bigger 8kg bag, but a bit harder to find them :) https://www.aussiepet.com.au/hills-prescription-diet-canine-k-d.html The other place is in WA but charges more for postage to other states, and only has the small bags http://www.mammothpetsupplies.com.au/buy/hill-s-prescription-diet-canine-k-d-renal-health-dog-food-hills/HPR1042 There is a couple of very helpful/supportive groups on facebook, that can help with raw feeding, (and sub q fluids, phosphorus binders etc) but personally for my girl I have decided to stick with the prescription diets, as I'm a bit uncertain about the phosphorus binders that are needed in homemade. Group https://www.facebook.com/groups/211455130573/ Page with different raw diets https://www.facebook.com/groups/301716136598335/ And yahoo groups(which I think are connected) that can help with feeding and is recommended for people with younger dogs https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/K9KIDNEYS/info https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/K9KidneyDiet/info

I was just reading the same page/post LisaCC

I'm pretty sure RubyStar did the desensitisation injections, for bees, with one of her dogs, maybe send her a pm :)

RubyStar I've bookmarked a few house sitters that looked fairly good, in case I needed someone, though haven't actually contacted any yet. If you want the links, let me know :)

Just did a bit of searching, and found what I think is their new page https://www.facebook.com/pages/Missing-Sammy/360163907445854 :) Apparently the last one was hacked.

In the article it says :)I remember reading about this when it happened(about a year ago)here's a link to the old thread My link And the original story from a different website, than in that thread My link ETA posted the same time as Zereuloh

Thanks DeltaCharlie :) Done :D
