  1. i do it, split the large dog ones across my little dogs with a syringe, know lots of others who do also. I have also suggested it to a couple of my very good customers who have multiple dogs to save them some money. But i am cautious about it, would not go around suggesting it to everyone.
  2. Professional groomers are ppl to . The price you paied seemed cheap to me, expect to pay more than that at my salon (for a wash, dry, ears and nails only) on a lab. Perhaps you should have asked them if they offered a coat stripping service? a good hydro surge bath, force blower dry and a brush will help, but stripping (using a furminator etc) will help cut down the shedding further (expect to pay more again), still dont expect your dog to come out 100% hair free! or perhaps buy a deshedding tool and do the dog yourself? sounds like some training is a must also :p
  3. have used the Noahs de-shedder and the furminator in my salon, both equally as good, huge price diffrence, i no longer carry the furminator to onsell to my customers, everyone loves the noahs de-shedder
  4. yes most commonly tapeworm is spred through fleas. And your tapeworm treatment should be done every 3 months
  5. yes, if using advocate you will need to treat for tape worm also, using "droncit" or something similar
  6. 1/2" snap on comb should be ok even up to a 3/4" depending on how much hair you want left, used over a #30 blade. The steel ones are better then the plastic. You might even look into a number #3 blade ETA, make sure the coat is clean, well blow dried and free of any knots and tangles before you use your snap on's otherwise puppy will look moth eaten lol
  7. dont be shy to keep calling your vet if your concerned or worried, a good vet will understand hope all is ok and it passes without fuss
  8. stand dryer? Simpson Supa Jet, there is not better
  9. that sounds like good news Ruth fingers crossed he is 100% real soon
  10. Ivans still in my thoughts Ruth, awaiting the news , hope hes doing ok
  11. Thinking of Ivan and sending good vibes his way
  12. one of my girls was given 3 months to live after she mysteriously developed renal failure, she was only 5 at the time. Out of the blue she recovered after weeks of care and treatment. A couple of months later the case of the chicken jerky strips surfaced. My vet rang me straight away and sure enough i was feeding them particular treats to her on regular basis. the were suppose to 100% chicken breast, well so the ingrediants said. I am fussy about what goes into my dogs mouths and trusted them treats to be a good choice! My sister in laws mother was not so lucky, her dog died, at the same time, again sudden onset illnes in a 12 month old CKCS he lost his battle. The treats were supposibly recalled however as a retailer i never recieved any instruction to remove that product from my shelves and i made the decsion myself to voulintarily recall them at my loss! I have contact the company, as have several other ppl i know who have all being affected by them. The company denied any fault with there product or on there part. I am disgusted that these treats continued being sold for months after the problem was bought to light! and still the company chooses to burry there heads in the sand :p i was lucky to have had my girl recover many others not so
