Took Liberty (mix Lab Rott) to the vet last Thursday. Swollen lymph nodes. Got her on antibiotics for a week, then recheck when she's in a better mood to let the vet touch her. Didn't even ask him about the MSM. Fingers crossed ............. Steve

Buddy went to the vets yesterday to have his knee fixed. It turned out he tore the cartlidge and it was causing him a lot of pain and he also had an acl tear. All his blood work is fine so other than the knee problems and some arthritis he's in pretty good shape for a 10 year old. When we got...

Anyone that would think that a homeopath considers vaccines a good thing doesn't know much about homeopathy at all. It would go against the very nature of what homeopathy is about. Dr Carley was, among other things, a surgeon and a very good one till she studied holistic medicine and chose to...

First female dog I have owned, so the first time i am dealing with the female dog heat cycle. After having a male dog die from bone cancer caused by getting him neutered at an early age, my philosophy has changed on getting dogs "fixed". I am not going to advocate getting your dogs spayed or...

And what is the main ingredient in most kibbles? Grains, and grains are carbs. A wheat gluten mechanism has been studied in rheumatoid arthritis patients. Careful observation revealed that wheat ingestion is followed within hours by increased joint swelling and pain. Little and his colleagues...

Maybe's spay went well yesterday - she's acting kind of tentative, which is good thing to do when healing, I think. Not her regular "balls to the walls" attitude. She gets chicken for dinner. I also had her hips checked for OFA submission, checking the box that said the result would be...

No Tattoo. These are SPECIAL guests, they're HOWER RESCUE and SHELTER SAVIOURS. They have SPECIAL needs requiring individual condiditions, shall we say, SACRIFICES, to make. This is going to be a VERY SPECIAL weekend, Tatoo.

I was given some by a friend who says it is great for dogs. The container says it is for horses, but he insists it's for all animals. I thought I'd ask here for advice. Steve

Hello... I have a 6mnth italian greyhound who has quite stinky breath... sometimes it smells like fish but that might be from eating the cat's food... Anyhow, I had read that they are quite prone to dental problems and if not cared for their teeth will start falling out as soon as 1yr. Are there...

On average, across the surveys, around 2% of scientists admitted they had 'fabricated' (made up), 'falsified' or 'altered' data to 'improve the outcome' at least once, and up to 34% admitted to other questionable research practices including 'failing to present data that contradict one's own...

Hi everyone. I just joined the group and wanted to introduce myself. I'm cuddled up with my adorable puppy right now. Hope everyone is having a great weekend.

I took Bubba for a walk this morning at 6 on the way home, even feeling bad and limping on his back leg he still thought he could get a squirrel. Of course it helps when the squirrel runs "right" under your nose heading for the telephone pole. He bolted to the pole and ran around it trying to...

Fleas? Well, if you have animals beyond a goldfish or pet snake you probably have to deal with them. They spread parasites like tapeworm, can carry a variety of diseases, and they’ll get on you and leave annoying bites if you let them, so fleas have to go. The easiest method is flea collars,...

I took Bubba to the vets last week for being lame on his right leg. He had an acl repair on the left almost 3 years ago. No problems with it. Changed him from Rimadyl to metcam for a week along with tramadol to see if anything got better. No change in a week and he's still not able to walk...
