Re: CPAP usage
After a night where the heat and my cpap used too much power (heater locked out) I went with a portable cpap batt. I can get about 14 to 18 hours cpap on the portable. Cheaper than adding more house power, and still keeps DW, DD, and pets cozy. Leaves enough AM power to run Keurig off inverter. DW cold and without coffee is not a place to go... My cpap setup is about 3amps avg, no humidifier. More than what estimates say... The portable batt has more than enough power to be my cell backup too.358Views0likes0CommentsRe: Thinking of another rescue - need advice
We have had some where we had to give antibiotics nearly constantly to control infection. We do what we have to do for current comfort of the dog. Excited to be rescuing another pack next weekend... Traffic should be easy with many watching "foosball".433Views0likes0CommentsRe: Thinking of another rescue - need advice
No teeth is happy dog. Teeth issues affect smell, so bad teeth is terrible for dog. Our experience is with rescued greyhounds, who receive no dental care from those who race them. We have one who raced until 5.5 yrs. When she came to us, you could see under her molars. The teeth needed to be chipped at to try to knock the crud off. Once we got jer healthy, out they all came. The canines were the worst as the bone was soft amd damaged. Infection up through sinus. She healed well, loves to sniff, and to this day, prefers dry kibble. Dogs are not vain. No pain is the goal. If in doubt, pull it out! Also makes for some great photos of tounge flopping about.433Views0likes0Comments
