  1. siks3- good post. ...Although it will be tricky managing the dogs back home, I am pleased the little foxy will be spending his time back with you .... and perhaps getting a companion .
  2. Lumps can be something quite common and benign..like fatty lumps(lipomas) which a lot of old dogs get...( my last old dog had heaps all over him ...... or they can be swollen lymph nodes... or result of injury... Hoping you get good news next week
  3. Talk to your doctor... it may be a bug going round .... If not..then try an antihistamine and see if there is an improvement. remember too- it may not be the dog.. it may be flea products/shampoo......
  4. Perhaps have a look here? LINK
  5. To clear it up- you need to find WHY it is doing that. To find out WHY .. a vet should examine the eye and surrounds . So - I suggest a vet appointment is made , so you can then treat it correctly, and get rid of it for good Using various medicated drops/creams may confuse the issue ..or do damage.
  6. One of working dogs wears a muzzle when doing yard work... he knows when we say "Come put your helmet on"..and comes & stands,ready
  7. I had a look at the stuff you posted here FB link now fixed
  8. Glad the foxie is OK- and I hope he finds a home able to cater for his attitude . Your Akita will enjoy the peace, by the sounds of it ....
  9. My Kieran used to do this every morning, early... until I started giving him a small snack at bed time
  10. Hmmm.. I have been reading this with interest, also the stories on their facebook page I loved your youtube vids, GSD'Sever edit - link fixed ( I hope)
  11. Hoping all is well this morning , and that you get to hear some news.
  12. I just put it on..and then go somewhere exciting.... have never had too many problems .
  13. ..and I am thinking that the two dogs may never be able to be run together like before Horrible situation. A lot of us have been there.
  14. That's awful. I hope your little foxy will pull through.
  15. Hmmmm... Our dogs have mostly all been working dogs .. living the 44gallon drum/chain/hard work lifestyle... illness has been a very infrequent happening. Very occasionally a dog will get ill and require vet treatment ,but not often at all... 2 times in the last 10 years that I can think of One pyo, one obstruction. I couldn't agree more.
  16. I use a plastic basket muzzle .. but the Italian made one . I have tried another sort....looked very similar,..but didn't have a leather strap,and it was awful..too tight on the cheekbones..and odd shape. My old Italian one has been used by quite a few of our dogs.. bashed, scraped.... and is still fine I have had it about 6 years. Hamlet used to wear it constantly when out in the bush ... panting is no problem ... Make sure you fit it first
  17. I guess ...guess that dogs with no front dewclaws would need a vet certificate or something???
