I Googled for some info WM and found this (you have probably looked at it already) http://www.dogpages.org.uk/forums/index.php?showtopic=261162 it was interesting that part of a comment that one poster ( Golden Fox) wrote is.... 'My vet said she has had more success with dogs on Vitatonin and Aktivait together'. Is your Mac on both or just the Vivitonin?

The books that say chewing/gnawing bones keep dogs' teeth sparkling :p Clearly she hasn't and I'd love her to learn to brush her own teeth, that chicken flavoured toothpaste makes ME want to gag :laugh: Yes! it is completely revolting! I wish I had never bought it

Penny will not allow Mac to run/zoomie in the passage way. She sits at the corner and growls and snaps her teeth at him when he zooms past. She is the zoomie Nazi

I saw this on All Weste rescue facebook page (scroll down a little bit) http://www.facebook....210408315642997 IMPOUNDED MON 25TH FEB AT CAMPBELLTOWN POUND, NSW If this is your little Westie X, then please contact the Campbelltown pound on (02) 4645 4790 & recite his reference number: 22130 to reclaim him. Can everyone please share this post with their friends, in the hope of this little guy will being reunited with her family sooner. Thanks If not reclaimed before 9am on the 4th March, he will be available for adoption. can anyone put their name on him to go to rescue if he is not claimed by his owner?

Yep, Mac and Mac both wet their pants :laugh:

and photos!

Mac does this also...bit of a surprise really as in some ways he is a little 'special' If I give him a piece of butter paper he always puts it carefully on the ground, butter side up, puts his paw on one edge to hold it steady, then licks it clean.

This is a shock W Sibs, I loved reading about Charlie, the stories about him will be missed by us DOLers. RIP beautiful little Zen-dog, you were much loved ❤

B he prescribed Stilboestrol for Mac. And it seems to be working well. I used belly bands until he was going through them like a newborn then i needed to start him on the medication.. He too was intermittently really wet but he never smelled. That would suggest infection to me. Are you sure he doesn't have a UTI? the last time I took him to the vet she put him on AB's and it made no difference. I have had him on the Propalin since Monday evening and he was dry underneath yesterday afternoon and again this morning, I would have thought it'd take longer than 2-->3 doses to see if it is working. The vet also put him on a course of AB's as he has a slight infection between two toes on each of his front paws, if it is/was a UTI I don't think the AB's would have worked so quickly. It has me stumped! My Mac's smell could be from the vege slops that I add to his turkey-neck-mince, it has fish oil added into it...either way it is was pretty urine-smelly, his bed smelt of babies wet nappy left on way too long

Try turkey necks or wings, your local pet food supplier may have them, if not, Woollies usually do, they are in trays that are purple coloured. The necks don't have much fat an them and they are nice and crunchy for the dogs

A bit off topic Westiemum but what did your vet prescribe for your Mac's urinary incontinence problem? (before you put him on pads) My Mac drips bits of wee out, sometimes during the day and also his bed has a small amount of wee on it...enough that I have to wash the blanket that goes on his little mattress, I also have to wash him underneath every day or two, he leaks on his skirt and smells to high heaven. I took him to the vet today, the urine sample was ok, she gave me some Propalin syrup for him, she told me that there didn't seem to be any specific treatment for dog urinary incontinence (only bitches) but she has had fairly good results with Propalin in dogs. Hopefully it'll help as he looks terrible with his yellowy/orange skirt and leg hairs and also his stinkin' 'man perfume"

Thanks for posting that Jed, I would like to take home Finnegan, the Glen of Imaal Terrier..what a neat dog!

It is good for upset tums Sheridan ( http://www.totallynatural.com.au/slippery-elm-powder.html ) I don't usually use it, I just give 1/2 charcoal tablet (1/2 a tablet is about the amount for Westies) for a couple of days, that usually does the trick.

So sorry Pers. RIP Hamlet you beautiful boy

My feelings 'zaccly B! What an outrage!! I KNOW!, I am never going into a Post Office again, that'll show them!

Oi, where is the Westie?

I wonder if you were to contact Telstra and give them the breeder's name and phone number, they may be able to give you the new number. The on-line live chat is on this page http://www.telstra.com.au/help/contact/home-phones/index.htm

Sometime Danielle at All Westie Rescue has an older Westie for adoption. This is their facebook page http://www.facebook.com/pages/All-Westie-Rescue/210408315642997

the irony is that PC Peach probably DID write that statement :laugh:

Happy belated Birthday little Charlie-Zen-boy

I don't think it's a bad thought T, sometimes an Annie can help to fix a broken heart

I pulled up all the carpets (in the rooms that didn't have polished floors) and then painted the floor, not much doggie smell now. I also put their beds out in the sun in the morning, if I don't they get pretty whiffy.

Hahaha, loved the one with the fish! The dogs thought those fish would come to life and leap up and bite them on their noses

any chance that you can tie a lead near each bed, long enough to be comfortable for each dog but have the beds far enough away so their is no bed swapping? My lot have their own beds in the lounge room and each dog has it's lead for that bed, if I don't tie them up Penny will chase Daisy off her bed then when Daisy decides to go to Penny's bed Penny will bark and carry on like a pork chop telling me that Daisy is on her bed...she does this as she is sitting on Daisy's bed :laugh: Mac just watches it all happen. If your lot like caves buy one of those Hound Houses and clip a lead to the leg and the other end to your Mac, he will then have his own little 'special' cave to (perhaps) wee in there are a couple here (maybe they can post it to you) ---> http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/reservoir/pet-products/mobile-dog-kennel/1013046978 http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/port-noarlunga-south/pet-products/hound-house-dog-kennel/1012730125 It is amazing how wide-an-area a Westie-wee can soak into!
