IIRC Rapeseed Oil, or some part of the plant is toxic. I'm not sure how we get from Rape Seed Oil to Canola. Rapseed pollen is an allergen.
Has anyone else in your area had a similar problem this Spring? Was Willow out of your sight long enough to get into some kind of wasp nest?...
Going to the beach without your Lab is criminal offense in Oregon. :rolleyes:
I think frozen tail AKA Limber Tail may have more to do with time than temp. Our first Lab got it in water that we could swim in, but she was in...
You start naming the dust bunnies, and wonder if you should feed them.
Our approach was to let our dogs wade in shallow water very early, say 8-10 weeks. If they wanted to go in deeper they could and usually did....
In our experience they only drink too much salt water once (Cooper never did) and they they figure it out.
If it had been just a few I don't think she would have done that, but they were all over her. It was a big nest, and it right in the middle of...
Have any of you managed to train a dog to actually watch for cars when crossing a road. I know that guide dogs must do it, but we have never had...
Ours seem to not wee when swimming. If we are out in a boat, and they have been swimming, they want to get to land to wee. Maybe if they had no...
We are working into it slowly with lots of treats. I actually got her to come back on the deck and got to brush her a little before she insisted...
I don't know if they swallow them. I suspect when they bite one, they don't get stung, because they never react like they had been stung. I...
FWIW the dose for benadryl is 1 gram/lb of dog, so two 25g pills for a 50# dog, three for 75#. You can give that dose two or three times a day...
Has she ever been stung before. Most dogs don't have a big reaction to bee/wasp stings, but if she is allergic it would be very different. Our...
When I googled Mistletoe, I read that it was only mildly toxic to dogs. and unlikely to do serious damage. I did read that the white berry...
On only a slightly related note, a Horse in Oregon is suing his former owner for neglect, asking for $100,000 settlement. The Animal Legal...
Lots of large breed dog food in the US has Glucosamine and Condroitin in it as a supplement. I presume it is the same in the UK. I don't think...
Actually I don't normally use e-collars, and seldom ever actually do a correction with them. When the dog do wear one, it is for Plan B, if...
It seems to me that restraining a dog on a leash is adverse. I certainly would not like being held or restrained by a collar around my neck....
I wish people who complain about e-collars actually tried one. No responsible trainer would ever shock a dog like the person in the video. Used...
