Dodgers...Be carefull with letting your pup chew on those really hard beef bones once he has his Permanent teath! It can grind them down or break them. This can then lead to health problems and if you where going to show him a German Shepherd will be judged with the teeth in mind. I feel as...

I have 6 dogs and plenty of other animals as well! I leave for work @ 7:30 am and return @ 5:30 I have weekends and Tuesdays off. I do work for a vet so I do sometimes take my dogs with me to work but only 1 at a time. In the cold my dogs spent 95% of the time in the house. I let them out to...

wouldn't worry to much about taking a stool sample with ya! A lot of vets prefer to do a "direct" stool sample. they take a plasic stool colection divice and stick it in the rectum to get a sample that is not contaminated. As for the parvovirus if the dog it 15 and been vaccinated yearly I...

We too feed Kaycee & Fritzi a food from Costco...However we do not feed the Kirkland one we feed the Teal bag that is "Nutra Nuggets" It is a premium food at a reasonable price I feel. It was not on any of the tests! Have a 13 yr old shepherd that has been on it since she was 2 and no problems...
