I don’t think the swelling area is necessarily the actual spot of the bite or sting. I think some dogs react to an allergen by swelling up around...
What a scare! What a relief it all turned out ok. We’ve been there twice with Snowie, once at 2am when he woke me up and I reached out in the...
Clearly even the fox poo smell wasn’t enough for Paul, so he had to nuzzle up to the smelly bits.
I find a weak betadine solution makes a dog smell nice - removes bacterial and fungal odors/wet dog smell, and the betadine smell is pleasant. My...
On one of our regular walks, we pass a muddy pool that all the dogs wade around in and drink from. Snowie splashes around in this pool and drinks...
On the occasions I’ve taken Snowie to the beach before dinner (his evening walk is before dinner), I make a mental note that next time I should...
Lovely image!!!
Which is why I feed my dog ingredients I can see in their whole form and unprocessed. I like to know exactly what my dog is eating. It takes some...
I was listening to a podcast that had a snippet about taking supplements for ligaments. I forget what the supplement was, but the point was you...
Oh no, I am so sorry for you and poor Merlin. How absolutely devastating. You have had such bad luck in the health department. But such lovely...

Staph infection - do they do a scraping to diagnose? My boy got little bumps on the top of the boney part of his nose last week. Vet said probably...
Sounds like he loves having that spot scratched. Snowie adores having the area at the base of his tail scratched, makes little air licks when I...
I have similar, but more like an oven glove, not individual fingers. Works nicely , but best of all I know the bristles won’t scratch Snowie’s...
How was your vet visit? I hope all ok.
How was the visit? That does look very inflamed. Rinsing the eye with sterile saline is always good to keep it clean and free of debris.
The first couple of times we took Snowie to a vet, to get Snowie to lie on his back, the vet lifted him up and lay him down on his back while...
How big was she? In stature I mean. I know how big her personality was!
So sorry to read. She - and you - really need a break. Sending get well thoughts.
I’ve read that intact dogs can fixate and want to lick and mount a dog (male or female) with a UTI. Apparently it smells like a bitch in heat, or...
