Cheers for that, i thought it would be best to leave unwrapped, I'm trying to keep her inside today, and quiet, but they're about to burn off over the road, and there is about to be a lot of sirens and action, so we'll see how it goes! I'm hoping it won't get infected, I've put on betadine and she seems to be doing a pretty good job of keeping it clean, but I'll be straight to the vet if it looks dodgy. Cool Im sure she will be fine.

I do know that some dogs are allergic to fish. Have you tried camel? I've heard this was good.

Ok have just read a article that said to wash and make sure that its clean and then put betadine on it. They also said it was best to let it air dry and don't worry about wrapping it. Keep her quite and give the vet a ring if your worried.

They have a wheat base that would not be good for us. But they do sound good

Its not black all over just in some of the bald patches and only in her pores. I haven't made a appointment yet, but will definitely give them a call if it doesn't sort out with the betadine over the weekend. around her Virgina gets a little black and greasy, but it could the black dirt from a spot in the backyard. I have been thinking yeast infection, bacterial infection or the thyroid.

stainless steel and they get washed all the time (and rinsed). She doesn't itch much, I only notice her scratching once or twice a day (that's only short scratches). Theres a bald patch also on here shoulder that's about 10 pc size, not yucky but just dry and bald.

9 months old, She has been on artemis medium puppy for about 2 -3 months now and gets chicken necks, wings etc. She was doing well the she had a good play with my friends border collie pup (about 4 weeks ago) then her skin got worse.

I've been giving peach monthly advocate so I have ruled out mites. I have noticed in some patches that the pores have a little bit of black and the skin is slightly scaly. She had a couple of pimples (on her belly and around her neck/chin) and some pimples where like blood blisters but I used some betadine and they have gone. The skin around her neck etc is slightly red. Should I use a medicated shampoo and if so which one? Some advice would be great. Thanks. updated

Is there any discharge from the ear? eg brown guk?

Al ittle less stress in life is always a good thing I'm happy all went well

I think you can get one with tenis balls as well, which pop out and the dog collects them and return to the basket.

Is it just frozen raw camel and sweet potato? Im slightly excited if it is - I didnt know you could get that from City Farmers! I have wanted to try Camel for my dogs but cant find anywhere close that has it :p I get my camel from a pet supply shop in Oxford Street in Mt Hawthorn. I didn't know City Farmers have it - I'll have to investigate next time I go. Now that rings a bell Its made in mount Hawthorn

Ive chucked the container out but what I can remember it was camel, sweet potato and minerials etc and was made in perth somewhere?? I got it in Mandurah so should think that it would be in perth. I did'nt even look at the price but it came in a takeaway container and I got a few feed from it. Hope this helps :p But I've got a feeling the camel was cooked

I got some camel and sweet potato mix at city farmers the other day from the freezer (but that was in perth). Peach loved it

Im glad you had a great easter sunday But in the end a national park does not alow dogs and you will get these comments

Our pup can get itchy and we have taken away beef and dairy and now feeding Artemis dog food which has no wheat, corn etc. When my husband cuts the lawn she does get itchy. But the best Ive found so far is salt water, a trip down the beach does wonders for the skin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've heard of dogs being diabetic, this makes them drinks lots and weeing all the time ??

With my pup I groom her at night when shes very tired so she dos'nt get too bothered by it. I don't know if this is the right way but works for us at the moment.

Ok back from donating blood, ate so many chocolates at the end. The nurse said that sometimes when there going to euthanaise a dog or cat they get them to donate blood first ??? has anyone heard of this happening???

I'm 0 - so after the victorian fires I thought I should donate. Do dogs have different blood groups like us or is it all the same???

I'm donating blood tommorow and was wondering what do dogs or any other animals do if they need a blood transfusion ???

"deals direct" online department store have some crates and other things like beds, bowls etc and ther postage is quite reasonable.

We are going camping as we do most years and this is the first time with puppy (7 months) and we will be having a easter egg hunt. So myself and the children where going to make some eggs up for "peaches" the puppy. I remember making some when I was little and it involved dry dog food and egg etc and baked in the oven. Does any one have any other ideas. --------------------

Thanks again will give it a go on monday when back at school. I was wondering about the breakfast thing!! will hold off untill we get home for that now. Cheers Glenda and Peaches

Well we have children at home that puppy is around and does behave as well as a puppy can (7 months old bulldog x). But when we get to school in the morning to drop my children off there is always about 2-4 children waiting to give "peaches" the puppy a pat. I make sure they calmly aproach her and I make sure she is as calm as possible and sitting down!!! but she gets so exicited and trys to role on her back. Am Im doing the right thing ??
