We have a bit of a mystery and are wondering whether anyone recognises this and has any solutions. Our lab (nearly 3) is currently on steroids for...
That's great, thanks! I'm in the UK but I'm sure I can find something similar here. Thanks very much.
Thanks for that - I didn't know you could get pumpkin powder, what a good idea. We have used pure pumpkin puree which seems to help with digestion...
Thanks Ruth, I didn't realise dogs just didn't chew kibble so that's reassuring. I do clean his teeth every night with an enzyme toothpaste but we...
Thank you - we do have slow feeders, food puzzles and I scatter feed so I'm happy with his eating speed (he would wolf it all down without), I was...
Thanks - probably not and I'm probably over concerned but I've always thought it weird he doesn't crunch any of his kibble and I've thought he...
Thanks for that - I'll look into those.
Hello, just wondering whether anyone can help ... our 22-month-old fox red Wilson never chews his food. It's all just swallowed whole (kibble)....
Hi Amy I'm no expert but our 22-month-old labrador has always been skinny - to the point where a couple of people have asked us in the past...
Cooper sounds a real character! The idea of a fan running while grooming made me smile. Not sure what Wilson would make of that haha.
Sounds like another possibility. We're quite lucky in that Wilson doesn't seem to mind being groomed although it's quite hard to keep him in one...
Thanks Ruth. I guess it's a case of experimenting and seeing what is most comfortable for the dog and then how effective it is at removing hair. I...
Thank you - I think I'm going to try a Zoom n Groom, if that's the Kong one. Love the name Cooper by the way. We nearly called our fox red lab...
Thanks, that's good to know. It's interesting about the Furminator because in all the reviews I read no one said that it actually cut hair and no...
I bought a Furminator after much reading of reviews etc and was really impressed with how much hair it removed from our lab (21 months.) But a dog...
That *is* a good thought, thanks. He has a longer walk/run around in the morning and about half an hour in the late afternoon which is when he...
Thanks so much for replying Michael. We did cut back on the banana he has every morning and stopped his apple at night but it didn't seem to make...
I wonder if anyone can cast any light on this ... Wilson is now nearly 20 months old and doing really well. He's never had really firm stools but...
Just thought I'd update this thread and say Wilson is fully recovered, yay! We took him to the vet's who gave him some Metacam and three days...
Thanks very much Michael. Just rung the vet's and they're going to ring me back. We definitely need more work on recall and in fact are part way...
