			<description>Hey guys I mentioned before that Chalice is really DA well she is bad again. She has been attacking Maggie for no reason and they isn't much of a before hand sign that she is going to attack. She does a funny little hop on her hind legs and the fight is on. When I have her out I have to watch her all the time. I just bought Five Flower calming formula I think it calmed her a little this morning.

He is on two different holistic supplements. I will have him on this for about 4mons. then I will have another blood test done to see if there is any improvements. I also got some holistic anxiety meds for him. I hope that this helps.</description>

I have fed Chalice raw and kibble diets. I have to say she looked good on the raw but I found it time consuming in the morning trying to get my son up and the dogs cared for and get to work on time when I live 34miles from work. So now I feed her kibble with organic yogurt and egg and vitamin supplements and once a week  ...</description>

Right now we have an 8mon old yellow lab/border collie Reed ( he is neutered and started on obedience and retrieving) and Mikado hates him. Mikado got off his collar and bit at Reed and Reed bit back and nicked the cornea on Mikados right eye it started to rupertor so the vet sowed it shut in hopes of saving his eye. He is being real good about the stitches and I can put the ointment in  ...</description>

			<description>I just had my female cropped. I another pain in the rear two weeks again. I have already made the emergency room this at $100 a pop with a huge discount to just to only pay 100. Yes I try the cone but it  seems like dogs that use the cone don't stand as well later. I male got his ears done late at 9months old end up getting some very minor nerve damage which makes one ear lay low unless he purposely holds it up for me. Any advice would be helpful.</description>

			<description>Gastric foreign body is a term that refers to any material other than food that is eaten and that results in a serious digestive problem in the stomach. Foreign bodies such as toys, string, clothing and plastic can become lodged in the stomach and create an obstruction. Any household object your pet chews on can become a foreign body problem.



Dogs of any age are susceptible to developing foreign body problems but this is most commonly seen in young dogs less than two years of age. These  ...</description>

This information is posted for the education of my clients, but I'm happy to share it with anyone who might find it useful. If you suspect your pet has parasites, don't contact me! Take it immediately to your vet for proper diagnosis and treatment.

The most common internal parasites for puppies are roundworms, hookworms, coccidia, and tapeworms.

Roundworms look like spagetti and can cause a puppy to have a &quot;pot belly.&quot; Most puppies have roundworms at some point.  ...</description>
