    My boyz have "green eye"

    Within the last week and half, all four of my dogs ended up with a discharge in their eyes which I now believe is conjuctivitis or pink eye. At the same time, this past Saturday to be exact, our one dog Bear, a 14 year yellow lab, lost complete mobility in legs. We put him on a pretty strong...

    My boyz have "green eye"

    Not the vet's fault. It wasn't even our vet. We live in a rural area, emergency services are an hour away. The discharge wasn't even mentioned today. Too many other things on our minds. Thanks again.

    My boyz have "green eye"

    One trip to the vet is all we can handle today. Unfortunately, we had to put Ole' Bear down this morning. He was our oldest boy ~ he would have been 14 one month from today. The mobility in his legs finally gave out on him yesterday. Even though, we knew it was time, one of the hardest...

    My boyz have "green eye"

    Is any body familiar with a green goopy discharge in the corner of dogs eyes. My one dog started with it a little over a week ago. I've been providing an eye wash using a saline solution and thought it was getting better. However, now all three of the boyz have it. Is this a contagious...

    Rawhides

    Thanks, Mordy. I've been looking at the bully sticks, lately. I have 4 dogs ranging from 30 lbs to 110 lbs. How long do the bully sticks last? Where can I find some of the other items you mention?

    Rawhides

    My dogs absolutely love rawhide so every now and then I'll give them a few. I know they are not that good for dogs; however, I live in a very rural area that does not have many butcher shops around . I've been trying to find an organic rawhide that is made in the U.S., has no pesticides...

    Peanut Butter question....

    If you feed them peanut butter, you may want to find an organic brand. If I'm not mistaken, peanuts are treated with a very high amount of pesticide. Did anybody else hear of this and confirm?

    Foods containing euthanasia drug

    There is a monthly (holistic) guide that I subscribe to called Whole Dog Journal (WDJ). Each year, it does extensive studies and rates both dry and canned dog foods. The results are published in their December (canned) and February (dry foods) editions. The journal is wonderful. It provides a...
