My dog is.... normal?

• My dog is.... normal? jennie_c_d Posted : 4/23/2007 6:45:36 PM I know this is the wrong place to post it, but I'd posted about her vet trip, here... Emma's bloodwork came back, and all is well. Her numbers are ALL normal. The vet says her weight gain is probably due to slowing metabolism (she's all grown up, now) and that the hair loss is just unexplained alopecia. It's growing back on it's own, so he's not worried about it.

• willowchow Posted : 4/23/2007 6:56:11 PM Oh, good.  Is she the one that was eating a real lot of food?  At least now you can cut back and not have to worry. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• jennie_c_d Posted : 4/23/2007 7:43:54 PM Yup, she eats a whole lot of food. She's actually cut herself back, significantly. It shocked me so much, I asked him to run every test he had[] She's still eating a lot, but it's much closer to the normal amount, for a dog her size.  0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• jennie_c_d Posted : 4/24/2007 5:01:52 PM Thanks! Those supplements are fairly inexpensive. The only thing that bothers me is the soy flour as the base of the mirra coat. Emma is epileptic and soy can triggor seizures (though I don't know, for sure, if it's a specific triggor for her). I might look for something similar.... It *is* growing back, but that sounds like a good upkeep routine. I can use raw, local honey and help with pollon allergies, too. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.
