Wow, is Mr Fluffy such a teenager. There are a lot of matt-type thingos online to make surfaces uncomfortable to walk on.
-
do a google search on dog smegma. he may not have learned to clean himself. Any obvious sign of infection though and he'll need to go straight to the vet. He can have a little not a lot and 'greenish yellow' is worth a check with the vet.
-
Same, I have a singer and a spewer. Cars trips are great fun LOL. Window open works well for the spewer. Only ear plugs work with the singer.

Try making it a happy experience as above.. but sometimes what sounds like distress is actually excitement. Don't fuss on her, that reinforces the unwanted behaviour.

Poor Sweep. Shmoo I know it's unlikely in Sydney & in winter, but could the rats have exposed him to lepto?
-
I'm so sorry Jane. He was your very special boy and you were meant to be together. What a lucky boy to have met you.

Constant Sinus/nose Problem In Sydney Silky.

At that age they may not have wanted to sedate for a good look with the camera? I believe it's the only way to know for certain if there is a foreign body or nasty tumour. Poor lady not getting a chance to say goodbye to her silky. -
I am so sorry little one rest in peace. The lady who helped you will always remember you.
-
Good to hear, it's very confusing. She did have her own at some stage.
-
Possibly but in the whole thread there hasn't been a mention of that. I was just pointing out imho I see only marginal difference between quality foster care and an adoptive home. I doubt she has been adopted as that would mean the new owner and not Dabs is responsible for the extensive and ongoing vet care. eta: I'll just add, 'chinaplate' is the login registered by Norma at Dabs. Merna is not chinaplate.

Isn't that the same thing? Glad she is stable.

Hi she will be doing another blood test tomorrow to see if any improvement in her blood etc.. Her ultrasound showed 3 masses in her liver, (they do not know if tumours but most probably... but no for sure ) Problem in her heart it is very enlarged and she has a heart murmour Very very anemic, so was loosing blood from somewhere, they assume related to liver but cant guarantee.. i am rather confused by the whole thing but as long as she is not in pain we can go on... I will be posting her new pics tonight and an update... Sorry about her results, there isn't much you can do for any of her major problems except palliative care. I hope her foster carer is coping ok.
-
So what were the final ultrasound and test results for May?
-
True Mita. She at least has a chance and if she has to go to the bridge she will (i hope) have her rescuer by her side. A curse on the owners who left an ill dog for a kind stranger to feel responsible for. 'chinaplate' is now Merna posting mostly. You still have Norma's email addy.
-
They look like lick-sores Cynthia, she has been ill for a while I think.

Love this little book *LINK* you can feed a complete diet with no kibble and it won't be any dearer or fussier. Worth adding it to the library anyway. Your doggy might just be having a problem or intolerance with the processed grain in the dry food.
-
Sorted! I got the refill at my vet and the diffuser at woolies. Danois, ta, I was too impatient to go ebay lol but will definitely for the next refill.
-
Seriously? Just a plain old Mortein brand will fit the refill?
-
Ah! Blast! Thanks Gretel I didn't know there was a spray....but was thinking more along the plug-in diffuser style DAP.
-
My vet suggested I try Dap with a stressed little foster as part of his settling in. I remember a thread a while back, there seems to be a lot of online places with a better retail price, can anyone recommend a reliable one?
-
Why wouldn't you want a smelly green prezzie?
-
Have a good night Tilly. Maybe he'll think twice about playing with stinky frogs in future.
-
like when you upset a tortoise, they stench really bad. It's about all the deterrent they've got.

frogs.org.au

Not sure. I don't think any of the native green tree frogs (if you are certain that''s what it is) are toxic - although it may have done something stinky or foul tasting to ward the dog off.
