Thanks Judy but we staying in various hotels (all dog friendly but has been a nightmare to arrange) So food is posing a problem. As long as we feed her with decent food I will be happy

Has anyone used or heard of Wolfworthy dry food alternative to raw? I currently feed frozen raw food but an upcoming holiday makes frozen raw impossible. I have been looking into alternatives but there is so much stuff out there that I am confused My sister had many problems with her very fussy...

Thanks for your reply, I am still trying to coax her with toothpaste on my finger with both logic and beaphar but it is not going very well I tried once with the logic to apply it to her teeth with my finger and it was a no go. Not sure what I am going to do Have tried all sorts of organic...

Thanks collette, will give that a go. She seems to like all veg but never tried celery before, hopefully it will take her a bit longer to eat

Thanks for your replies, I will keep an eye on her for now, I am going to let her have one more injection,then try her without. 2 dog owners have told me that their dog had these injections as a temporary measure and that the alllergies never returned after stopping them. Fingers crossed that...

After treatment with steroids and a month of oral Apoquell my dog (who is 10 yrs old) started on monthly Cytopoint injections for what my vet said was an environmental allergy. I hate having to give her any type of treatment but the scratching and the scab like skin condition was so awful that...

Thanks JudyN I will order that and give it a go Thank you JoanneF I have tried the dried fish, bones from Honeys and the butchers, not tried the sinews or tendons only because I did not know enough about them or where to purchase I will look into it and give them a go but I am not very...

After vet visit for other reason I asked for a check on Biddys teeth and was disappointed to find that she has a plaque build up again. It is about 18 months since she had 12 teeth out and after seeing her post anaesthetic swore I would never put her through that again. She is a rescue with a...

Thanks for your replies, I know now that it must be down to the content of crushed bone. I had to add water to Honeys food (as suggested by them when Biddy was a bit constipated) There is none in the Natures Menu that I am using now though I might opt for the one that contains a little crushed...

Did not say, checked composition of both foods and both looked very good. Biggest difference I could see was that Honeys had ground bone and Natures menu did not

Hi JudyN, thanks for your reply The poo is softer than when on Honeys food but not abnormally soft, I was not really concerned at all until the vet said to monitor the situation then I started to think ah bugger does that mean that there could be something wrong

Heaven on Earth what an awful story and I thought I had problems. Laura8w8w what was the outcome? did she survive? I do so hope and praying that she did, poor little mite. I have a 10 yr old or have been informed now she could be 11 unspayed female but after seeing her post anaesthetic after...

I was feeding Honeys raw food which Biddy loved but have changed to Natures menu (she also loves this) which is cheaper and more convenient. I can just feed a certain amount of nuggets a day now without having to weigh the food I have noticed a change in her bowel habits, with Honeys she went...

Thank you everyone

Thank you Flobo and JudyN, I have calmed down now and discussed my concerns with the vet I declined more steroids or a second month of Apoquell (vet is convinced that it is an allergy) even though it worked but came back within weeks of stopping, I do not want her on long term medication She...

Am totally disillusioned with all advice and treatments from vet Collected Simparica trio from vets and found that they had included worm treatment too. I said that I had not ordered it. They explained that it was ok to give flea treatment straight away as ingredients were different from...

Thanks for your suggestions, I will go with whatever the vet suggests tomorrow and maybe get worming tablets from them too though I think something is included with the Simparica trio, will find out anyway. Thanks JoanneF that makes sense going with whatever works

Thanks Tinytom, yes I have wormed her but wondering about the effectiveness of the products I am using Am even more concerned about what flea product now I decided to go through the vet for it rather than buy online as the prescription will cost 25 pound and I do not want to buy more than 3...

Thanks for that excuseme I will definitely give it a go. I have already changed her beds, hoovered and sprayed everywhere but guess I will have to do it again after I use the Advocate to make sure there are no more lurking about

Has anyone used Advocate as a flea treatment? I have been using Frontline successfully since I got Biddy but have found 2 fleas on her, luckily she has got white fur so they were easy to see as she is not the best for being examined I phoned the vet and she suggested trying Advocate first as it...
