O WM, I am so sorry you will soon be saying goodbye to your dear lil' fella .. Give him lots of hugs and tummy rubs and stuff him with blue cheese and all the goodies you think he will tolerate for the next week. Thinking of you, B

Maybe, in this case, a Hills weight loss diet :laugh:

How is Andy this morning WM?

How's he going today WM?

do you feed him lumpy stuff rather than yoghurt and vegie slops?

That his post-surgical diet of his will no doubt be larger servings of Adelaide Blue Cheese, so get onto it WM and Hang in there for a while longer Lil' fella

Your little Mac is usually at the back of my mind WM so esp-ing good thoughts his way.

and Xero as well, just awfully sad http://mypolice.qld....der-and-friend/ Goodbye to retired PD Xero: partner, defender and friend QPS Media on Oct 26, 2015 @ 8:57am Our thoughts are with Senior Constable McLeod and his family after their good mate Retired Police Dog Xero passed away unexpectedly last night. Retired Police Dog Xero was born in 2006 to legendary PD Ike. Xero was sworn into service in May 2008 and worked alongside his brother PD Vice in Toowoomba. He has served Toowoomba and Brisbane Dog Squads as a general purpose dog for seven years. He was also qualified as a Special Emergency Response Team dog. Retired PD Xero made headlines in 2009 when an offender picked Senior Constable McLeod's house to break into. After Senior Constable McLeod and Xero tracked the offender, he was charged with entering a dwelling with intent, unlawful entry of a motor vehicle and stealing. PD Xero retired after G20 in 2014 and was living at home with Chad, his family and two operational police dogs, PD Prue and PD Maui. His last gift to the QPS was the 2016 QPS Dog Squad calendar, getting photos with Prue and Maui, showing them both how it's done. Xero was a legendary dog and much more than just a partner. He had an incredible career and was loyal and loving. He will be sorely missed. Starting the job in Toowoomba.

How's Mac doin' today WM?

I checked and it all seems a bit odd, here is a link to their domain search http://whois.domaintools.com/wolfdogdownunder.com, it shows his address ( 16 CAMPBELL ROAD Alexandria) and street view shows tiny houses and also a real estate listing for rental--> http://www.domain.com.au/16-campbell-rd-alexandria-nsw-2015-9813582 When I search the phone number I got this... 0478 351 986 No matches found using standard search, try: PHONE NUMBER 0478 351 986 Mobile ADDRESS Australia there is a little info here also on Web Stats Domain http://wolfdogdownunder.com.webstatsdomain.org/ not in the ASIC register either I will also add that it's raining so I'm on the computer rather than walking the dogs :D

I am pretty sure you would need to ask your vet for a prescription which maybe ok if you visit irregularly but if your vet has diagnosed, treated and saved the lives of your dog(s) for years maybe continue with your own trusted vet and pay the extra.

I wish I had not read this as now I feel guilty I don't give Penny & Mac blue cheese, I have a feeling dried sweet potato is not a substitute I reckon they have made a pact to send me broke :D Glad your Mac is doing so well WM

I had a quick look and checked the reviews on the Vetmedin Capsules 1.25mg and one of the reviews (2nd last one) mentioned Petceutics, I thought hummmm so Googled Petceutics and checked the reviews on the Vetmedin and lo-and-behold they appear to be the same. makes one would wonder...same company or just sneaky?

O No Kirty, I am so sorry. What a lovely dog and to have to say goodbye at so young an age. "If love could have saved you, you would have lived forever". Have fun over the rainbow lovely Rupert

What she said ^ ^ ^ ^ ^^ ^ ^ ^ ^

Excellent news DD

Updating to say that there is normal poo so far

Yep - seems to be the case with these oldies. Up and down: deeply asleep one moment and then perky as a puppy. How true DDD, Penny, who turns 17 in November, sleeps most of the day but when it's meal-times she dances around like a pup, she can't manage the steps (17 of them) very well and waits until she gets carried down but if she hears a bandicoot or a dog she whizzes down them like a two-year-old. Go figure :D

you are a worry Mr Mac! Glad it's cooler and that you are feeling a little sprightlier now that the pesky pup has gone home.

Yep, just snoozing on Mum's lap, dear little fella ❤

I figured she was well in the weight range HW, you could always try her on 1/8tsp, you can buy them on ebay here http://www.ebay.com....=item4627d332eb They are hard to find in Aussie kitchen shops and when one is found it costs a fortune. I made one from a 1/4 measuring spoon by filling half of it with araldite (from front to back not bottom to top) sort of like this :D

I still have a little bit of Synflex left but I'll open the new bag of powder this morning and give them a little with their breakfast to see what happens. The dosage is 1/4 tsp up to 15kg but as my lot weigh between 7.5 and 8.5kg I think I'll give them less than 1/4 tsp for a few days, maybe about 1/8 tsp I'll update this afternoon when poo-time has happened

I think you should have told that woman that a blow fly had scared your dog She would have replied with "Oh, his name wouldn't happen to be Stan then?" hehehehe edited for crook spelling

That looks like an old horse curry comb Kirislin Found a couple of similar one here--> http://www.ebay.com/...y-/221355703384 https://www.etsy.com...w-wooden-handle though it looks more like these (I Google-Images for 'Horse sweat scraper with comb') https://www.google.c...R%20WITH%20COMB edited to add--> http://www.ebay.com/itm/BLUE-HILASON-DELUXE-HORSE-SWEAT-SCRAPER-WITH-COMB-BRUSH-GROOMING-/181802271869?hash=item2a5442847d
