    Immune mediatwd hemolytic anemia

    Immune mediated hemolytic anemia In October of 2006, my normally fun loving Dingy Doo was acting a little strange. I thought that perhaps we had overdone the exercise the day before, but noted that if she still seemed off in the morning I would take her in right away. Well, at 5 am when I got...

    This works well for me!

    I usually produce one litter every 2-3 years. After a bad experience with a client, I came up with a system that worked extremely well for me, and the only complaints I had were from people who did not check out well enough to pass muster. When negotiating a contract for a pup, I always...

    Great inexpensive bones

    Hello, everyone. If there is a butcher shop in your area, or a local slaughter house, check with them about "oxtails" for your dog. These are different from the dainty trimmed ox tail that you buy in the supermarket. Butcher style oxtail is whole, with all of the meat, gristle and easily...

    Why I do not like dog movies

    Is anyone else out there as upset about the Winn Dixie movie as I am? Seems like every time there is a dog movie, the next thing you know there are BYBs producing the "famous" dogs by the thousands. I don't know if my finances, space and time can accomodate ANOTHER breed to rescue, untrain...

    Let's have a poll: Should it be illegal?

    Theorectical question: Jane Doe stole a dog from a person who abused the dog and kept it confined to a short chain, starving. Jane got arrested a year later and the original owner got the dog back. (Now in the bloom of health) Jane faces 5 years in jail. Did she commit a crime? :confused...

    Hello, everyone!

    Hi everyone. My name is Liesza and my babies are Dingo, a 1 year old dingo hybrid who is exceptionally intelligent-she says 10 different "words" and knows what they mean. I adopted her as a 5 week old pup. It is not an unusual practice with wild dog breeds to wean them so young, although I do...
