perhaps put this in General ? palliative care doesn't get heaps of traffic .... thinking of you & your poor dog/s

:D I think you'll find that many of us have dogs and cats ...and other animals with whom we share our homes.!! Some of are crazy cat people , even! The thing is - they are animals ..and many will attack / kill the others - instinct & all that . Human owners are entrusted with the responsibility to avert this happening - by one way or another. Often it doesn't work out , and injury/death is a result.

..I suggest on lead..and go elsewhere .. :) at least he's enthusiastic !

LOL Well Done to you & your movie stars :)

That's a happy ending :)

definitely torches & pitchforks ;) How disappointing. One would hope for some sort of 'paper' trail or email/bank confirmation ...photos of chosen pup, etc ...

perhaps she could have a tshirt /bandana for her coffee days .. "I' d rather have 3 legs than Cancer" ? So glad she's feeling so much better! many years ago I remember a lab stud dog who had osteosarcoma and had a front leg removed . it took him a while to re organise the leg lifting /pee routine .. but he could still do his stud duties with a little help .

That's odd .... in someone else's house , he goes looking for the dog ?

sounds as if you got carried away...by cute... phone or email the breeder straight away!! Talk to them - I'm sure you're not the first ;) meanwhile do not let cat/parrot/pup all be in the same room - it's not fair on any of them , and not good for your stress levels :) As said .. do NOT sell/give puppy to anyone other than the breeder if possible .... and by all means keep us posted . BREATHE !!

Christina .. by all means , if a perfect home can be found with someone known - grab it! However, if all played out as sam man suggested ... dog living with friends, sam man visiting , etc .. no, that would , IMO , be not conducive to Loki settling . It may also put a strain on the friendship ......

Ams ... I am so sorry . sending thoughts & strength.

What an odd thing to see in a newspaper.... .. in the scheme of things ... "dog attacks cat"

Hope the decision sits easy .... Loki will be grateful :)

Sam. Is there some sort of social club for city apartment dog owners ? Perhaps talk with someone about apartment living ?

awww... what's that saying ? "a tired dog is a good dog" :)

Sam man ... seriously - as has been said , rehoming is just that . No visitation rights , for the good of the animal. :) Hope you two get to stick together !!

..and why your friends may not be the ideal new owners . You'll have to rip the bandaid off all at once . fresh start.

No putting greens in an inner city flat ;) ..and where will you keep your little getaway igloo?

Poor Dog. If you rehome and have opportunities/time to visit so often .. why can't you find accommodation where he can be with you? In answer to your query .. my impression is that you rehome- you rehome .. and don't take him on outings etc ...

... I hope your girl is much improved today ..and that we get photos of her when she's back home :)

he was a beautiful boy .. but without a pedigree , you have no proof his parentage was all Golden retriever Just in those pics .. to me he looks like a labxgoldie ....? I hope you find a companion with the same temperament as your gorgeous boy :)

So sorry you are hurting ... Run free & young, Hunter .

yes .... that way you know exactly what's happening :)

Definitely a probiotic - I have no experience with coconut oil .

Oh No at least you got it very early .. and she is in the best place now . Thoughts sent for her uneventful recovery!! The other horrible bit is all the stuff .. where have you taken her that she may have shed virus ? have you had doggie visitors ? You obviously need to contact the seller/breeder as well . This thread is all about cleaning/disinfecting ...... I so wish you didn't need it http://www.dolforums.com.au/topic/179377-parvocaronavirus/page__p__4046065__hl__%2Bparvo+%2Bcleaning+%2Bf10__fromsearch__1#entry4046065
