I'm just gonna use a finger brush, since she's small enough. I'm using Petsmile toothpaste, as it's the only one that is approved by the Veterinary Oral Health Council. I picked Rotisserie Chicken flavor. They also have London Broil and Vanilla Mint. I might try the vanilla next time because she is a fiend for vanilla. She will mug you for a Nilla Wafer.

Actually just got back from the vet with the poor girl. Bladder infection Noticed this morning she kept trying to pee in tiny amounts so off we went. One emergency fee later we have antibiotics. Ah well, this is why I have pet insurance.

Thanks for the toothpaste tip!

Bummer about the bladder infection! I hope she feels better soon!

We’ve had a lot of ongoing skin issues with Tijuana Pug. He’s very prone to sudden rashes & alopecia. I’m hoping we’ll eventually get a handle on that. He’s got Douxo wipes & mousse, skin soother balm & skin & coat chews. Not sure what to try next. I’m considering a probiotic because of his lifetime of eating trash.

I suspect that part of it is that he’s still adjusting to domesticity.

Ponders good morning one and all!

67 sunny 89% humidity feels like 65 rain 1%.

The weather is beginning to be decent so I will be able to sit on my lily pad and relax.

Have a great day!

The window spider is gone leaving behind lots of webs, 4 empty egg cases, and lots of dessicated insect bodies. Perhaps she went to find a winter hibernation place or perhaps that crazy catbird finally managed to get her.
