Most people just fed their dogs what they ate. People gave dogs the table scraps from that night's dinner or left overs. When I was a kid, we had a toy poodle that my mom only fed table scraps and an occational can of Mighty Dog dogfood when we ate out. That poodle lived to be twenty and died of...

Just got back. Must eat something (anything, now!) and then go get my toddler. BUT-- SHE'S OK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I'll fill in more detail later, but basically they did some in-depth x-rays and got specialists in and the metatarsal on that side is bigger than on the other side, and they...

I've also been to alt.med.veterinary with this problem. Sorry to make some of you read it twice. Our 75 pound German Shepherd began having seizures four days ago, probably due to contact with an unpunctured can of bug spray we found on the yard. She was convulsing almost continuously until we...

Any thoughts on IAMS dog food ?Is it considered a good food or is there issues with it ? thanks

Saskia was in for x-rays under anaesthetic today. She'd begun limping slightly on the leg where the big, hard lump is by the time the appointment came up. The results are that the overwhelming likelihood is that it is a serious bruising of the ligament there. He said in response to my asking that...

From the time stamps on your posts, it appears you are doing a lot of posting during normal work hours. Does Hill's allow you to have petty arguments on some obscure newsgroup during company time?

hopefully this isn't considered off topic for this newsgroup, sorry if it is...... anyone feed BILJAC and have bad or good experiences with it? My trainer said it was a step up from the Purina Pro Plan that I have been using for Maui and Cali so I am considering making the switch. She said it...

So Diddy, You never answered why this question about Science Diet and their position on bloat bother you so much? Why did you react so negatively about a year ago when I asked Steve a similer question and why did you react so negatively to this thread? Is there something that you know? I think it...

We just moved into a new house(renting) and it has a significant ant problem outside in the yard and in the garage where our dog is during the day. I dont want to spray typical ant killer for fear our 5 month old dog will lick the stuff. Is there some type of dog-safe ant killer? -Kevin

As I posted earlier, my dog ate a single ibuprofen tablet over one month ago and had severe gastrointestinal distress for a week, eventually settling down to chronic vomiting episodes. Due to the severity and duration of the symptoms we question whether the ibuprofen was the sole cause or if...
