enna Posted November 9, 2013 Report Share Posted November 9, 2013 Sending wishes that ALL of our 'family' pets are doing ok tonight. Thanks for the link, Kay. Benji needs another haircut - I try to stretch it to six or seven weeks but he starts to look like my little tazmanian devil again - actually I like it because he is sooo cute.

kayc Posted November 9, 2013 Report Share Posted November 9, 2013 Anne, he is indeed very very cute! Glad you mentioned about Bentley, will hve to check him out on FB. Arlie still limping a bit, not badly am keeping an eye on him, don't see anything wrong with his paws, perhaps he came down on it wrong when he jumped out of the truck, who knows. Still wondering if it could be Arthritis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wifflesnook Posted November 9, 2013 Report Share Posted November 9, 2013 No news from kennels so I am hoping Kelbi is fine. Just had a blissful Spa experience with Rainie while the little ones looked after by William and Binda.

Wifflesnook Posted November 12, 2013 Report Share Posted November 12, 2013 Just picked Kelbi up from kennels. I asked how she had been and they said they had to take her to the vets on Saturday because the diarrohea continued. She has been given special food and tablets and seems absolutely fine. Am glad it's such a good kennels and they didn't let me know but just sorted it. I know if there had been need for concern they would have phoned me but I'm so glad they didn't as I was on holiday and couldn't have done much.

mfh Posted November 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2013 Jan, I am so glad that Kelbi is doing so well and that the kennel took charge and acted. Peace Mary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kayc Posted November 12, 2013 Report Share Posted November 12, 2013 How rare to have a kennel just handle things, that is great! I love it when people use their good judgment, and I'm so glad Kelbi is doing better! Arlie's limp is finally abating, I think he must have turned his paw jumping down from the truck, seems fine now.

Wifflesnook Posted November 12, 2013 Report Share Posted November 12, 2013 Yes I thought it was well handled. She has been going there since a puppy and is seven now so they know her well. They are also well aware of my situation as when Pete was in hospital she had to stay a while and when he died they also looked after her for quite a while. It's good to be able to trust them with our dear pets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queeniemary Posted November 13, 2013 Report Share Posted November 13, 2013 So glad all of our fur families are doing well. It is really cold here today, got down to about 19 last night, and is only 22 now at 8am. My girls are sacked out, with no interest in going out!!! Lazy little girls. I, on the other hand, am going to clean out a closet when I get off this computer........going to try anyway. Trying to get a lot done before eye surgery on Monday. Going to another Murder Mystery Dinner Theatre on Sat. night with friend Tom, and my daughter and her husband. Usually fun. First picture is my lazy girls today, second picture is Twelve Oaks Estate, which belongs to a dear friend, where the murder mystery will be held. This is also where they fixed my birthday dinner last Saturday night. A lovely place. Mary (Queeniemary) in Arkansas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Queeniemary Posted November 14, 2013 Report Share Posted November 14, 2013 Oh, Kay, I plan to take it easy on Sunday. I did actually get the closet cleaned out, two big boxes for "Share and Care" and got one of the "paper" boxes full of old stuff sorted out ready for my filing cabinet....wow, I am impressed by me! If you all only knew how lazy I am and how I hate to do this sort of stuff. lol The "twin" beds are their bed pillows for the living room floor. They sleep in a big crate in my bedroom, with a big bed in it for the two of them. You might say they are a little (?) bit spoiled. Going to try for another box or two of the old stuff, we will see how far I get. Mary (Queeniemary) in Arkansas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
widower Posted November 14, 2013 Report Share Posted November 14, 2013 Food Advisor is at: http://www.dogfoodadvisor.com/ Hi, just wanted to thank you for this link, I'm browsing now and it has a lot of good info.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfh Posted November 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2013 Yes, I agree. That dogfoodadvisor.com site is excellent. Came highly recommended from a dog expert friend. Mary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kayc Posted November 16, 2013 Report Share Posted November 16, 2013 HRH QMary, No more spoiled than my Arlie, I'm sure. He had his own recliner by the window! My animals are very much a part of my family/household. I'll have to take a look at the food advisor, although I check those things out quite often and am happy with the dogfood I buy.

Queeniemary Posted November 16, 2013 Report Share Posted November 16, 2013 I took a look at the food advisor, if I were in the market for a different dog food, it would be a great tool. I have had my dogs on the same food for 10 years, Nutro Natural Choice, Lamb and Whole brown rice formula, and they are great on it. Their coats shine, their poop is firm, and my vet is always very pleased with them. The only thing I have had to do is change them to the "lite" version of their food, as they were at the top end of their weight (Sassy a little over) last year, but they are looking great now, you can actually see their little waists. They get 2/3 cup morning and evening, with a treat at bedtime. I buy big bags of their food, delivered by Petflow, no shipping or handling, and delivered to my door. Same price as in the feed store, but without tax, and I don't have to carry from car, etc. Love that Arlie has his own recliner Kay, that is priceless!!

kayc Posted November 16, 2013 Report Share Posted November 16, 2013 I think it's important to find what works for your dog. I tried Arlie on Wellness and it gave him diarrhea. The rescue place I adopted him from had him on Science Diet, I didn't think that was very good either. My neighbor feeds his dogs Gravy Train, I think it's garbage. The Huskies have sensitive systems and my son and I tried different products before landing on what works well for our dogs, and that is the Kirkland Nature's Domain Salmon & Sweet Potato. They only got 3.5 star because of something minor, but it works for them. (Skye required gluten free, which cut out a lot of choices.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
widower Posted November 16, 2013 Report Share Posted November 16, 2013 ugh - gravy train, alpo and some of the others they sell at grocery stores/etc are terrible. I have mine on IAMS and while it's not top end, it's respectable enough for me. Plus my dog's done fine on it for years, so why fix something that isn't broke? I toyed with the idea because he's licking/nipping at his paws a lot, but vet says it's probably allergies..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kayc Posted November 17, 2013 Report Share Posted November 17, 2013 Allergies can be from food...I've suffered food allergies most of my life, well acquainted with that...I happen to be allergic to fish, one of the healthiest things there is!...but not for me. I agree, the ones in the groc. storees are terrible, too much filler! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
widower Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 Yeah but it's highly unlikely for him since he's been on this food for years. Appears tied to when I moved, something in the grasses/etc here I guess, I'm kind of rural. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
