Re: A very old stray {The Old Fella Story}
That is interesting about the flea meds. My one dog will act like we are going to beat her when I try to put it on her. Then she will go and hide under the desk for a while. I have wondered if she has some kind of reaction to it or that it makes her feel sick or something. I only use it during the summer months and even then will stretch it out to 6 weeks between doses. I know I am taking my chances with fleas, but her reaction tells me that she doesn't like it. That is why I use the separate flea and heart guard meds rather than the one that combines them together.393Views0likes0CommentsRe: A very old stray {The Old Fella Story}
I never feed our dogs or allow water the day of travel. Just feel safer not to. And due to a problem with bloat with our other GSD, I don't feed or water for about the first hour home either. We did that once as soon as we came home and within an hour we were rushing her to an emergency vet clinic. Glad Mama is doing better.400Views0likes0CommentsRe: A very old stray {The Old Fella Story}
Maybe by asking them if they would be willing to give up the dog, they realized they hadn't paid much attention to it. I think the plan should be to every so often ask them again, and then talk with the kids when they are out about animal responsibilities and how happy the dog looked when he was taking the walk, etc. Perhaps that will break the cycle.....359Views0likes0CommentsRe: A very old stray {The Old Fella Story}
So as I sit here catching up on the forum via free wifi, waiting for the 2 industrial size dryers to finish drying our clothes, I should be thankful.... :) Not sure about Branson. Would like to, but depends on what the whole family would like since that would be a long pull.519Views0likes0Comments
