'roo meat; get him to eat our national animal symbol and he will get better :rolleyes: Low in fat, high in protein. Peter D

Yes, grapes and raisins are toxic to dogs. You will find many threads confirming this if you search DOL Peter D edited to delete repeated word

Hey Soniq, I have a fabric limited slip collar that you can have for Bayley if you want. Peter D

Hey tybrax, got you in my thoughts. Peter D

Go back and read Steve's post and her references I have friends; I'll never need to board. I don't want to poison my dogs just so that I can put them into kennels. The jury is well and truly out on vaccinating; once, maybe twice, but no more than that. Peter D

Hi people Hobbes is now just over 3 years old and I've had him fully vaccinated twice. Hobbes found me when he was about 1 year old, and for all I know, he might also have been vaccinated as a pup. He is heart worm negative. His annual re-vaccination is due on the 19th of December 2004 and I just got the reminder from his vet. I'm going to take him in for his annual vet check, but I'm thinking that he has been vaccinated enough to not need a third set of vaccinations (or possibly his 4th round :D ). What do people think? He won't be going into kennels this year (or any other year for that matter ) so I don't need to keep his vaccination certificate current for that reason. The info I've been getting from the 'net states that we and most dog owners have been over-vaccinating our pooches. Peter D

Jo clips Lulu really closely on her tummy (almost shaved ), closed clipped on her bottom, and about 1 centimetre elsewhere. She leaves her ears and tail long. apparently, the close clipping of a dogs tummy really helps with temperature regulation. Lulu certainly gets a new lease of life when she's clipped. btw, Jo does this with hairdressor's scissors, no clippers. Peter D

Innova is good, as it is human grade kibble. The down sides are that it is expensive, and you can only buy it from 'Pet's Paradise' franchises. Peter D

bye cozzy You didn't deserve to die; who does? You have a special place in my heart; feel free to romp around in it and have fun! Its all yours, mate. Peter D

What a lovely dog! What a marvelous name Go, Roadkill! ;) Peter D

Hey, Chrissy you have the support of me and my wife Jo, for what's that's worth . You love your dogs like we love our dogs, and that should be encouraged . Peter D

Wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!! Hey, Mischief maker, I feel for you. Peter D

Jeff, I only know you by your posts (which I get a lot of enjoyment from ) but I want to say that my thoughts are with you. Losing a family member is always difficult, and at 5 years old, Wazza was so young. Peter D

When my father died two years ago, I was with him stroking his arm. He was my dad and I loved him more than anything else. My dad, the best human I knew. My dad; the best person I ever knew. I looked at him as he was dying and told him 'its ok to die'. He looked at me, and died, with a smile on his face. Peter D

Hello j I am so sad to hear of your loss; the effects of irresponsible owners are huge. If these two dogs had been properly confined, Monty would still be alive and the dogs would not be incarcerated and at risk of also dying. R.I.P. Monty Peter D

Hi Chrissy your boy Brax was wonderful; it must be hard without him. Peter D
