    Poppy seizures - medicating with Pexion

    Poor lass :( She no doubt takes a great deal of reassurance from you both during and after these seizures. It probably really helps her to bounce back.

    Training Class Nightmare

    Yes, and that is good. A follow up with the whole class was needed to clear up confusion and to confirm or cancel the next class. I expect this didn’t happen at the time as the trainer was probably in a heap of pain and needed medical attention ASAP. My comment was about the suggestion here...

    Training Class Nightmare

    Oh, that is really unfortunate. What an awful accident. It definitely was not your or Prim’s fault though. Trainers/instructors should not take or handle the clients’ dogs. It is way too risky, and can also make some dogs very anxious (I don’t mean Prim…but many dogs won’t appreciate it at...

    Safe antihistamine

    We give two Zyrtec a day to Obi, who is about 30kg. Usually has to be given before allergy symptoms start to be maximally effective. If Obi is actively itching then that’s a job for steroids. But if we start the Zyrtec in spring then itches are rare. Keep a close eye, as hotspots can...

    Safe antihistamine

    Cetirizine is Zyrtec, which is the one we use. Piriton is something else I think.

    Do everything you can to stay out of that smoke, Lisa, and to keep it out of your house. Your house is probably pretty airtight to keep out the cold, but plug or tape up any gaps. If you go outside wear a N95 mask if you can get one, and use a new one each day. That smoke is toxic and the...

    Audible Marking in Dogs

    I hadn’t heard the term Audible Marking before this thread. So you reckon he’s using this sound to mark territory or send a message to other dogs? Seems a bit of an odd strategy given it’s not loud and there are no other dogs there to hear it. I mean, dogs do use sound to announce their presence...

    Audible Marking in Dogs

    Definitely not a pain sound. Obi makes these sounds when he’s having a rough game with us (which basically involves wrestling with his head). I’d say it’s just a sound of pleasure. A ā€œthat feels good, I’m getting into thisā€ kind of thing.
