You don't need a vet degree to understand these things, in fact my 10 year old nephew is studying protein/carbohydrate/fat absorbsion in his biology class. His text book has acurate information. I don't have a vet degree, I have a medical degree which means I do know this subject very well since most of our research is done on animals.
I would suggest you check your own 'facts' then -- because dog digestion and human digestion are not alike in this. And my vet teaches on the university level. She teaches nutrition and diet as well as other areas. I won't dignify the 10 year old's textbook comment with a response.
Beyond this, take it to a moderator please ... I was simply trying to be helpful to the original poster and say things in words that were easily understood. AT this point you're simply taking this off topic. I'm done.
Well if that's the case callie, I would imagine that you are misunderstanding what she is telling you because you are incorrect. I can't imagine any reputable university allowing a quack who contradicts KNOWN physiology to teach. I always find it interesting that you will argue to you are blue in the face but never once have you produced any real evidence supporting your claims other then "my vet told me so". Canine and Human GI tracts are different in some says, but very alike in many, many others. Obviously you can post whatever you want, but if it's incorrect someone is going to correct you. Honstly, the OP doesn't strike me as someone who needs things said in "words that are easily understood".
For the OP, the eyelashes will probably grow back if all they did was pluck them. For permanent relief the follicle needs to be removed/killed. I'd probably try to get in with a vet Ophthalmologist to get it taken care of before it becomes a problem again.
