Almost had our first Christmas tree disaster this morning. Xena was racing around after her breakfast Wobbler when it went under the tree. Next...
Thanks for the update, Lori. I was actually just thinking about you and Edsel yesterday and hoping that you'd update soon! I can't believe how...
Happy Birthday Holly! I hope 4 brings you many more muddy bogs to wallow in.
After my vet friend's advice, Xena has been on increased rations for the past week. Two weeks ago she weighed 17.7 kg. Today, at almost 35 weeks/8...
Happy Birthday Bramble! I love the calendar photo of you with the moose :D
Now that Xena is over 6 months she's on a 3 monthly worming cycle. I've yet to use a flea treatment on her. We don't have ticks or many of the...
I'm so sorry, poor little Tino. A positive outcome was a very, very long shot.
Wellies - you should try Skellerup gumboots. They're a NZ brand (made in China now though, that makes me very cross) but I've checked and they're...
For me there were two breakthroughs - the first was toilet training, the second was the biting. Xena's biting started easing off at 4.5 months,...
That's definitely a "if I don't laugh, I'll cry" moment - oh Corona! I'm so glad that she's ok, and hopefully you have a quiet night, especially...
Had to Google for an image - beautiful birds. It's always special to see hawks hunting.
The amazing healing properties of the tennis ball! I'm glad that she's taken it in her stride, Duchesses have to be brave too.
Oh no, what an awful thing to happen! I hope the little guy pulls through. I thought people bought pet insurance as a matter of course nowadays?...
Caught up with a friend of mine and her Lab for the first time since getting Xena. She's an equine vet, but gave me some feedback on my Microdor -...
Why can't they do it on animals who are already in the clinic for surgery? And presumably sedation isn't always necessary? My senior cat had to...
I see so many Rotties in Wellington, the place is crawling with them, and one thing I've noticed is that they're massive dogs, both in height and...
Heard the unmistakable sound of "jaws on remote" whilst I was doing the dishes last night. Deep breaths, don't panic, be cool. Wait a few seconds,...
@Teller's mom that Christmas one is the best! The scissors though, imagine waking up to that in the middle of the night :eek:
Oh gosh how nasty, poor wee girl. You take care of yourselves too, campylobacter is an awful illness.
I take Xena in almost monthly to get weighed. At 4 months the vet nurse accidentally dropped the entire jar of treats all over the scale. Well....
