@Kazm Did they do bloods for Astro?

Is his coat dull and flat?

Can your friend go direct to the Specialist.

When one of my Giants had Osteosarcoma the Vet gave him Tramadol which seemed to help with the pain.

I thought the dog may had a focal seizure because of the noise. The hyperactivity that followed could describe post ictal behaviour.

I note the the 2 facilities named in both articles are in Sydney Elite Performance K9 and Elite K9 Resort at Nerang. Wonder if they are connected.

A lot of Vets in Sydney have now started charging a $35 fee for scripts .

And you won't have to worry about Pyometra.

On the video included in the posted link the Vizla looked like a perfectly normal 14 mth old dog. As well it had a Vet checkup before it was sent to the Training Facility and given a clean bill of health. And as Vet Rob Zammit also said on the same video "a professional trainer should have recognised the dog was sick after not eating for 4 days and contacted the owners to come and get the dog as it was obviously not working for the dog". Even when these facilities have good reviews one has to be so careful whom you leave your dog with .

Wolfhounds - sighthounds probably regarded the JRT as prey. The 2 of them obviously would have operated as a pack. They probably attacked the poor woman because she picked her dog up in order to protect it. None of this excuses the horrific attack on the woman and her dog. A tragedy for all involved. You have to be so careful who you can trust with your dogs. Not everyone cares for them like you do.

It could have some merle border collie in it.

The best Vet I ever had for my Giant Breed dogs was a horse Vet. Unfortunately she doesn't practise around here anymore (Inner West).
