It used to be wonderful, I was really disappointed after being gone for a couple of years that no one is here anymore. Maybe look on Facebook for some of the old people, and others who look like they would contribute, and invite them to the forum?

I have done quite a bit of research now, I have decided not to change their food, as the taurine is in meat, not vegetables, and they have a lot of meat in the food they are eating now.

I recently read an article that stated that feeding grain free food long term might cause heart problems, because it causes deficiency of taurine? Should I be feeding it? My grain free is not fancy, just diamond Nutra Nuggets beef and pea. I have two dogs allergic to grass, we got by for a...

I have seen some really great reviews on Animal BioSciences DGP, and also some that leave me wondering if it is safe for dogs. If anyone knows anything about it, I would love to read your comments.

She seems to be doing a lot better today, I started switching to the new food last night. If anyone else has any input Lady and I will be most grateful.

Thank you all, I found some grain free in our little feed store, I am going to start with that and acidophalus until I can get to the city. The vet says the lesions between her toes are from grass seed, she is wrong, I have been checking their feet twice a day since before the seed started to...

Thanks, Barb04, I am going to check with my feed store today and see what they have along this line, if that doesn't work I'll have to try the pet stores in the city. I really need to get her on a better diet.

Can you explain the limited ingredient diet, novel proteins and carbs? And would Pet tabs be an appropriate supplement for a meat diet?

Ok, I will do it now, I don't have any raw vinegar, but I have vinegar until I next go the city, there is no grocery in our little town. Can I save the solution and use it a few times? Do I need to dry her feet after use?

Lady is almost 13, she has a history of allergies and itching and for the past couple of years I have occasionally seen her scooting that I suspected was not caused by worms. Now she has sores between her toes, and a couple of weeks ago a bad ear infection that did clear up with treatment for...

Thanks, everyone. I have a tritronics collar that I got for Rita because she was endangering herself, (we live with cougars). But I'm not going to use it if I don't have to. I'll make her some liver treats, and if that's not foolproof, try the long line. We are working her on tracking, but...

Brandy is really good about coming when called- most of the time. The problem I am having is that every once in a while she will stop and look when I call, but then either go on about what she is doing, or even run farther off. This doesn't happen on a regular basis, maybe less than once a...

Thanks everyone, she hasn't done it very much the last 3 days, hopefully it will correct itself. Still, if anyone else has input, I'd love to hear it.:)

Thanks, I may have to do that. She was showing a little stiffness, so I started her on Ester C, which seems to have helped a lot. The back leg thing is new, and I thought maybe someone had seen a similar problem in a dog.

Lady is a 10 year old Yellow Lab/ Golden Retriever mix. The last 3 days I have noticed that when she is going downhill, her hind legs seem to not work properly, she sits almost involuntarily. Then she will get up and go off like nothing happened. If the hill is steep it may happen again, and...

Thanks everyone, I found out her birthday (she is 3 months old as we suspected) and the shelter that microchipped her and the person that originally adopted her. Why would someone adopt a puppy and then not want it? Anyway she's a really smart girl and is adjusting well, she even finally got...

Thanks I couldn't feel one, but the vet said they would scan her for me.

Thanks, I'll make some calls and see who can do it. Is there a way I can tell for sure that she has one? Can you feel it or see a lump? Where is it?

This is our new puppy Brandy. My husband decided it was time for a new puppy. (Rita died a little over a year ago). She is supposed to be yellow lab and "maybe" husky. Her original owners were said to be from Alaska, and I guess brought the puppy with them. We were told she is 2 months old...

Here's a link to Maak for pets where you can get unbelievable discounts on flea treatments like promeris and top spot. I just paid $67 for 6 treatments for large dogs. I have been using their products for years, but this promotion is new, I'm supposed to get a discount for my referrals, too...
