    Acid reflux in older dog

    yeah his food is weighed out we never guess .... the difficulty is the times of day when people are working.

    Acid reflux in older dog

    I had considered it but he'd destroy it within 30 minutes flat.

    Acid reflux in older dog

    Thanks for the suggestion, but honestly unless it was made of plate steel he'd have it into its constituent parts in 30 minutes flat.

    Acid reflux in older dog

    he's on two a day now, looks like we are going to have to try for 3, because he's a stubborn old thing any changes to his routine are a nightmare.

    Acid reflux in older dog

    The trouble that we we have is my partner and I frequently eat at different times due to work, I've had a little success with stuffing a Rennie inside a small bit of cheese whilst cooking but that doesn't seem a long term solution, I'm convinced it's a food expectation thing though as it only...

    Acid reflux in older dog

    He's on twice a day, which is the only practical way of doing it for us, I did try 3 meals for a few weeks whilst off work it didn't really help.

    Acid reflux in older dog

    My 12 year old Staffy/Lab cross has started to regurgitate a little bit of liquid when he stands up sometimes, its not everyday but is increasing in frequency. He's always been an utter grub hound and I think the smells of us making the evening meal get his juices going a bit too much and his...

    older dog pooing a lot recently

    My 12yr old Staffy cross has started pooing a lot more lately, up from maybe twice a day to sometimes 4 or 5 and there seems to be a lot more of it. He isn't having accidents in the house and its not diarrhea (although not as solid as it used to be) changed his food to the senior version of what...

    Is it really necessary to have a 12 yr old dog given yearly boosters?

    Thanks to everyone for replying, now that I cant afford the £80 a month they're trying to charge for insurance, I'm beginning to think there may be little to gain from stressing him out after 11 years of boosters.

    Is it really necessary to have a 12 yr old dog given yearly boosters?

    Up until now he was insured and it was a stipulation. He doesn't come into contact with other dogs or go into kennels. For some reason the last couple of times he's gone to the vets he's become very agitated and snappy, I'm wondering if its really worth putting him through the grief .

    Soft poos from a new rescue

    You'll get better nutritional advice on here than 90% of vets will give you.

    Skinners for non-working dogs?

    Don't go near Skinners with a bargepole. A lot of dog rescue places use it, because its VAT free and cheap. You then get home and wonder why your newly found dog has cowpats.

    Sudden problem with Salmon oil?

    All the research I did on Salmon oil said its a complete waste of time as an anti inflamatory unless you give them the correct dose, which is a lot more than people think. Even the bottle says 8 pumps a day for his weight. Obviously you have to build up slowly, but he's been on that amount for...
