  1. jacinta- on your profile- there is no information ... if you have used your real name- then you may be able to change it if you are so concerned... but honestly- with one first name, and a city/town population..how on earth could anyone find you???!!!! your dog would have to be a very valuable and special one for someone to go to all that trouble Most folks here give an area, or a city-- it is of GREAT assistance if info is required for vets,obedience classes,trainers, boarding kennels.... all that sort of thing
  2. Agreed Frogs are protected, and struggling. You cannot relocate them either- because of a froggie fungus (dangerous to frogs only) fence off your pond properly- keep the water going, and enjoy knowing you are helping out the struggles of our frogs! Hope your little fella continues to be seizure free . He will love being able to go outside again!! perhaps there was some spray or something from next door?
  3. Ooh- someone else has done the dead wool thing!! That used to be our pocket money- back when ANY wool was worth something- pulling the wool from maggoty/dessicated carcases was not the most pleasant- but,to me, there are worse things than maggoty wool/flesh ( we also used to trap/skin rabbits- dry the skins, and sell them for Christmas money (akubra hats used the fur for feltetc) ) (human vomit ) for one....
  4. Oh, Bugga sending thoughts and a Hope he can hold on.
  5. cutting roo tail with an axe may leave splintery bits. I prefer to take the time and experiment with finding the pad of cartilage in between the vertebrae..then just cutting smoothly thru. It does take some finding at first worth a half hour cutting and scraping- and flexing the tail, to see where the cartilage is
  6. we are not asking your address- region/nearest city will do
  7. don't bet on it. some vets will just push product , citing convenience. Hopefully yours doesn't.
  8. All that is a lot for a dog's immune system to cope with....- esp. if he is carrying a fungal/bacterial infection. if he were mine, he would be desexed, but not have vacc's the same time, and definitely not the heartworm injection.
  9. you can go to the vet well-armed, now- and don't let them fob you off.
  10. Can these be done at 5 months?(sorry, I have never done either, so don't know) with a pup showing behaviours as described, perhaps doing this , where other dogs are would not be a good thing at present ...
  11. No expert- but would also suggest he is losing his puppy coat.
  12. IMO - fear aggression needs one-on-one professional help. You pup had a rough start at the very important beginning of her life- so her brain is now wired a bit differently. If you ask on here, someone will give you recommendations for a professional to assess and advise. I will say one thing tho- when she is carrying on- do not pick her up/pat/talk to her. Best of luck with her...
  13. Betadine is preferable to tea tree oil(toxicity)
  14. Hmm.. I use it a bit... here's one from yesterday.. HERE,on flickr
  15. me too..... shall hope someone else comes up with an idea
  16. if he has had this for some time- then next week should be fine *still googling- for what I am trying to think of....*
  17. Ok- fast growing nails/furry pads...this is ringing little bells- something about keratosis.... *goes googling*
  18. Looks as if it could be a fungal infection?..definitely get it looked at closely . orrrrrrrr.. when he walks- do the nail edges abrade that part of his pad? looks as if it has been roughened by constant friction as well.....
