  1. Talk about confusing... It's great that we're discussing it though! And if the C3 is adequate for home kept pets, as I know for sure I won't need to send them to boarding kennels at any time, perhaps this is all they need. The vet that I called did suggest C3 but failed to mention that there were others and the difference between each. I also consulted my Australian vet from Hong Kong via email to seek his advice and he says that many diseases such as distemper is uncommon in Oz, but to get C5 for all round protection...kinda like not answering at all huh!
  2. Thank you for the clear explaination. I now know what the C3,4,5's mean and from what the info CavNrott provided, my dogs have been getting C5 which also includes Leptospirosis which is not required for Australia. By the way Jed, why should no dogs ever to get C4? Just curious as it just seems to cover more than C3 and less than C5. Jed: thanks a lot for the info regarding greencross vets.
  3. Hi, my two pomeranians are due for their yearly booster and since we've only just moved over to Brisbane from overseas, I'm not sure what the difference is between C2 and C3...something like that. Just that we were never given a choice back in Hong Kong, all we knew was to take them in on time for their booster, that was that. Also, what is the difference between private vets and greencross vets? Thanks in advance!
  4. Hi Devon, my 10 year old pomeranian also has a stiff back leg but I know it's due to a stage 3 luxating patella. When she's in pain she wimpers and you can tell that she's absolutely miserable by looking into her eyes. My vet suggested I put her on an anti-inflammatory oral medication called 'Metacam' which alleviates the inflammation and pain in both acute and chronic musculoskeletal disorders. This is an oral suspension medication that can be given on a long term basis in a maintenance dose. To find out more about 'Metacam', just do a search on the internet and see if this is something you'd like to consider for boof head.
  5. Hi, unfortunately after some research on pet foods, I was totally devasted to learn that I've been feeding my dogs pet food that was not good for their health. I'ave been feeding my dogs Science Diet for quite a number of years but since learning more about what's in commerical pet food, I'm now feeding them an all natural holistic kibble and have noticed improvement in their overall health and wellbeing. Both Science Diet & Eukaneuba are considered commercial pet foods and contain ingredients that are not good for your pet. Wouldn't even consider IAMS for one sec, if you want to know why, click into the website below and you'll know. IAMS conducts animal testing and tortures animals, totally defeats their claim of being animal loving. Anyway, I've provided links to a few websites that will give you some insight into commecial pet foods and the benefits of choosing an all natural pet food. http://www.iamscruelty.com/ http://www.api4animals.org/79.htm http://www.barfworld.com/html/learn_more/processed.shtml http://www.shirleys-wellness-cafe.com/petfood.htm
