Granny's gone and done it again

@CapricornFarm and @h2oratt:
My nervous and hyper little male Sheltie was gnawing/chewing on both his front knees/ankles last week and I couldn't see anything, partly bc he wasn't too cooperative about letting me examine him and partly bc I don't see well. Took him to the vet and they couldn't see anything either so I suspect maybe a tiny thorn broken off a "beggar's lice" seed pod. Vet wrote him a Rx for Prednisone and Trazadone to calm him down, which he's been on about 5 days now, bid on the Traz, down to 1x on the Pred. Today he is showing urinary incontinence so I stopped the Traz. Do you think that's what's causing it?

Just seeing this. Both of my dogs started to itch, often. Having a bad gut can cause itching, biting, licking. I did find that chicken was a no no for both. Stopped it, and started them both on a chewable pro biotic. They've settled down. If it keeps up with your dog, you may want to start a pro biotic. Read up on it.

Thanks, Cynthia! I make my own yogurt so I may start adding a little of that to his meals, he'll probably love it.

Its thundering loud outside. Hope we dont lose electric. Just lost tv whoo its pouring !

We got snow all day. Interesting that it didn't collect much though.

Robins. I've been hearing Robins the past few days. Even today once the snow stopped. They will be making their nests soon.

I saw one yesterday. It's certainly warm here. Tomorrow is supposed to be even warmer.
Just put the goats to bed.

Was watching tv with DH and looked outside, then sat up and leaned closer, then back, and squinted. He asked what I was trying to see. I told him the ground looked hazy, like it was snowing, but we both agreed that wasn’t likely.

Turns out it was.

We are under tornado warning.

Shoot, is it warning or watch? Not the run to your basement and say your prayers one, just the pay attention alert one. I can never remember which is which.
