side effects from medicine
Posted to: Health & Grooming
Does anyone know if Baytril can cause loose stools in dogs? My dog has to stay on it for a month and has had loose stools, but the Vet insists that is not a side effect.

Really upset about the condition my Mom's dog was in...
Posted to: News & Entertainment
I need to vent this somewhere. My Mom came up for the day so I could groom her *almost* 14 year old Shih Tzu. When I lived at home, I kept up on her grooming (fairly easy as I kept her clipped since she was an active dog) so she never got matted or grungy (it also helped I worked in a groom shop with...

waiting your turn in class???
Posted to: Nutrition & Exercise
I'm about to complete an advanced obedience class with Bugsy and today we had a trial CGC test. We were last to go so I had to sort of appease him for an hour and a half.

I just had a very odd experience. On top of everything else I have to deal with right now, my vacuum cleaner threw its toys out of the pram over the weekend and just stopped working. This is not OK in a house that a) is inhabited by a labrador and b) is in the middle of renovations. So I spent this morning...

Biting off chunks of beef marrow bones....
Posted to: News & Entertainment
So Ari is now able to bite off small chunks of the RMB we've been giving her (beef marrow bones) - she bites off the the end bits. I have pulled all the bones b/c I am not sure if this is safe for her to do (she doesn't chew just swallows from what I can tell). We've already had an internal...
