Revolution and red droopy ear?
Posted to: Health & Grooming
My dog has been on Sentinel for 3 years. We just switched to a new vet (we've moved a lot) and new vet didn't sell sentinel, didn't like sentinel, and recommended revolution. My husband was frustrated, but I liked the fact that it worked on ticks, which are bad here, so we bought 3 months...

stinky dog

the new guy is a little stinky. is this possibly due to him not being neutered yet? he also tries constantly to get outside, will neutering possibly chill him out a bit? thanks.

digging

does anyone have any recommendations to deter my 5 month old from digging? he is digging holes in the yard and then re-digging where we have put top soil and seed.

Please help. Older dog with high calcium
Posted to: Health & Grooming
My beloved dog who is 14 has had excessive thirst and hunger lately. He was found to have high calcium levels. The vet said it may possibly be due to a parathyroid tumor or lymphoma. He is an active and happy guy. Anyone have experience with this? If it is a benign parathyroid tumor, would it be worth...

Clean Ears
Posted to: Health & Grooming
How clean do their ears need to be? I wipe our Wes's ears with a damp paper towel/ear wipe from the pet store, but I can't seem to get rid of all the gunk... It is not that there is so much, rather that there is just a little, and it is all in the very small crevices that I can't quite totally...
