    Homeopathic treatment for dog ear yeast infection?

    By the second round of treatments, I'd have a culture run to make sure the treatment would work. More expensive in the short run but MUCH cheaper and easier on everybody in the long run. Just because there is a yeast infection doesn't mean there isn't also bacteria, etc. I do agree with the...

    Dumbest Things People Have Said About Your Chickens/Eggs/Meat

    Ahh, you should have talked to vegans instead. They don't use any animal products, no eggs, dairy, honey, etc. Vegetarians- well it depends on what kind of vegetarian. Some do dairy,no eggs. Some do eggs, no dairy. Some are OK with both eggs and dairy but no flesh. Some do fish, most don't...

    tumor "paint"

    Interesting article and a long way from being readily available. https://news.wsu.edu/2014/12/10/scorpion-derived-tumor-paint-helps-dogs-at-wsu/#.VKxZjdDTnmw Many necropsies will say no tumors seen. If this ever gets down to a low price (doubtful) an injection of tumor paint before euthanasia...

    Food recall- Kentucky

    It's used for coccidiosis in cattle, just like sulmet, corid and medicated feeds. It is much safer in cattle than in horses, 100 times safer. It would be the equivalent of not using the recommended 1 teaspoon corid to a gallon of water but instead using 2 cups!

There are two different "Staffordshire" breeds, the American Staffordshire Terrier and the Staffordshire Bull Terrier. The AKC Am Staff can be dual registered with UKC as an American Pit Bull...

    Not an Emergency...Marek's in the Flock

    Anyone else humming the theme to Goldfinger about now? There have been times when I thought that painting my animals with gold just might have been a less expensive option than the medical choices I made. Using a ventilation system for cleaning poop boards, etc would help with the dander, both...

    Guess The Breed!!! Dog Edition!!!!

    No! An Inca Orchid? Was this a guess or a seen breeding? And those DNA breed tests are not even worth the postage. It has the wrong coat for Xolo or any of the spitz (+am esk).

    Guess The Breed!!! Dog Edition!!!!

    Nope, schnauzers have medium/long coat over their whole body plus furnishings. They even know the genes that decide it. Grooming pattern is what gives them a smooth body.

    Guess The Breed!!! Dog Edition!!!!

    After thinking about how much I tease my friends about their finding their Portuguese Podengo Pequenos at the shelter, I thought I should add this. Most, if not all, Portuguese Podengos obtained through shelters are not Podengos, just a dog with a vague resemblance. Though once you see pics of...
