Yes, no worries!

Correct! The decision to use drugs like fenbendazole (for Giardia) include: 1. Are there any GI symptoms (like diarrhea, mucus in the stool, flatulence, etc) 2. Was the test an antibody test, or did they actually see the Giardia oocysts? And if they saw them, how many?

YW!

Ouch! That ear is way too red and swollen. Has Rosie's appetite been getting worse? Is her pickiness increasing in other ways? Was she ever a good eater? Is there anything she loves to eat or drink? Do you know how many, or how young she was when she was vaccinated? Is she a good water...

Hi Lynn! This year I can also heartily second Margit's recommendation for Zach and Leo. They may be a good fit for you, if you're still searching for trainers (1 year later). Thanks to Margit's recommendation, when she and I discussed maintaining wellness for her pup during an appointment...

Hi Jul! Wow, great job with Finnick! I am so glad that he's interacting with the new puppy. That's a great sign of his trying his best to be a balanced dog (through play). I agree with Dr. Christina about the nail. Keep the area clean-ish (warm water, peroxide, socks, etc.) and hope that the...

Thanks so much for sharing, Cindy!

Not usually. It's a good idea to monitor a young dog whenever he's chewing something that can get stuck in his mouth (as sticks occasionally do) or in the rare case that he starts choking. Just as you would do with a toddler. Yes, all of the talks in the HA! archives by trainers like Sarah...
