wolfie Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 Hi kazmuzz, I've owned a few Rottweilers and found that they can often have dry coats. While your beautiful rescue looks to have been quite neglected, they also seem to be quite prone to flea and heat dermatitis with copious fur drops and bald spots. I currently have a Belgian Shep who also started having a dry and dreadful coat for her first summer. With a careful BARF diet and Goochy's drops (http://www.goochys.com.au/) her coat condition has improved out of sight. With my Rottie girls I found that they really didn't react well to certain manufactured brands, but thrived with a BARF diet. Good luck with her, they are the most loving of dogs.

kamuzz Posted January 25, 2007 Author Share Posted January 25, 2007 the very expensive vet behind us is open till 11pm every night if you need a wormer They won't supply without a consulation and I'd much rather take her to Karen on Saturday. I'm just more confident with Karen rather than some vet I haven't met before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamuzz Posted January 26, 2007 Author Share Posted January 26, 2007 Casey went to the Baulkham Hills vet today. She weighs 26.5 kg :rolleyes: The vet checked her over, and couldn't find anything obviously wrong with her. She has been wormed, and will be wormed again in two weeks. Here's hoping we get some weight on her soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kamuzz Posted January 28, 2007 Author Share Posted January 28, 2007 No I'm not - she won't eat. Sort of ate her dinner last night. Licked the canned food off the biscuits and left them. Won't look at brekkie, even when I offered her straight canned food. Then she turned down a bone for morning tea. And at dinner she wouldn't even sniff her food, and wasn't interested in anything. Not even a chicken neck. Could this be a reaction to her vaccination? She had her C3 on Tuesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kamuzz Posted January 28, 2007 Author Share Posted January 28, 2007 Kamuzz, I've PM'd you. Thanks for that - good suggestions. No change this morning. Still no sign of interest in any food & food related noises like washing bowls etc that normally has them paying attention. She is drinking water. Morning poo patrol did not show up anything unusual so no clues there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
