Covid puppies factor also. Not just large breeds and not just aggression. So many were first time dogs, and weren't able to be properly socialised or even attend classes for the owners to learn how to manage their dogs maturing into adults.

So cute!

Holy hell!

Do you have malaseb or nizoral in your stash? And some anti fungal cream for the lesions? They will tide you over and stop it's spread if not shrink it. Canesten also have a laundry liquid for clothes and bedding. You can also use the UV light from Covid tests to check the lesions for little glowing bits. Not really helpful but I guess but still fascinating. There's an oral med from the vet that they will prescribe, it's not like the old ones who used to batter the liver pretty badly. So I haven't answered your question but topical treatments can be fairly drying so a Calendula or green tea spritz couldn't hurt.

I'd contact Zoetis Aus via email to check the batch. If it really is dodgy after all, then you've got a pretty good looking counterfeit!

Oh my god. I'm so sorry for your friend. I do know people order 'coyote vests' from the U.S. in attack areas like when they go on the road travelling and there's dingo/X's and strays around camping areas. They are apparently very effective. They should be by the look of them! https://www.coyotevest.com/ The anxiety though, really needs a cooperative vet.

I'm so sorry I can't help, but sending best wishes for you both. Please update when you can.

Try calling ABR, she might know. https://www.savour-life.com.au/adopt-a-dog/rescue-groups/238893/Arctic-Breed-Rescue

At 11, that's still not normal ageing and if anything it's taking a toll on her body. She needs to get to the vet asap.

There's a 'Rule of Three' for rescue dogs that generally helps understand what is going on with them. For example https://alphaandomegadogtraining.com/adopting-a-rescue-dog-the-3-3-3-rule/ You're right, you're also dealing with natural terrier instinct so maybe a course with a training class will help you navigate through those challenges?

One gumtree ad started as Poms and then changed twice more to add desirable crosses to the mix. Pup prices are falling. Changing tactics gets them sold. Doubt there's pure OES in the cross if at all. But I hope it grows into a nice dog that they keep forever.

Been thinking about this one. Obviously Silky and Yorkie as breed specific rescue but also small breeds and crosses. I do have some favourites of course but in the end, it's also about the dog themselves as an individual. I especially love the wise seniors. And there's 'old souls' despite the age if that makes sense? Their eyes tell you everything .... Basically I'm a dog person. LOL

That seems to be a long time between the shot and the lump appearing. I personally don't like hard lumps at all, have a quick check at the vet. x

I guess in these days of clickbait you only need juicy headlines, not well rounded articles.

That makes sense thank you.

There are courses like NDTF and Delta but qualifications aren't compulsory if you want to setup as a trainer. They are only regulated by current companion animal acts, boarding laws (if they run from kennels) and cruelty laws. All the regs that apply to everyone. So in answer, nobody trains them except themselves and their own motivation to improve. Veterinary Behaviourists are fully qualified.

Oh god how awful. She at least had the best shot at survival. Rest In Peace Indi

Not knowing comes with the territory, breed specific or not. Rescue is what it is. DNA tests are pretty limited as far as things that can go wrong health-wise. Like, you can't DNA test a SWF for a guaranteed dental on arrival. Every. Single. Time. (Ok maybe not every, just very very often). But you factor that into predicted vetwork expenses when you rescue one. Expense is a genuine concern, try starting small while you're getting your fundraising approval. Or I'd join an established rescue as their breed specific person while you learn and grow. There's always the breed clubs too.

It can be done but everything is more vascular. Not all vets will do it due to bleeding.

Thank you Jemappelle I'll keep updating her page. If her story even helps just one little Cavvy with repeated lung problems then it will be worthwhile.

'Base Narrow Jaw'. And she's probably a bit mature for it to correct itself. Specialists can check for malocclusion, do doggy braces, or grind the teeth down and fill in the pulp if you don't want to do the pulling out. Extraction can be done by a regular vet and the urgency will depend on how painful it is. ball_therapy_for_base_narrow_canines (1).pdf

Thank you for reading VSOS is Veterinary Specialists of Sydney in Miranda NSW. I'll clarify that on her page. It's so rare, a prognosis is uncertain regarding a cure, but she's being given every chance. Just about to put a video on FB.
