Hi all, I am interested in starting a Doodle Book Club Group (IF this doesn't already exist, though I did a search and couldn't find one). My thoughts were that whenever someone reads a good training…Continue

"Yeah, that would have been a problem for me when JD was alive. I bought the 10 lb bags, and because part of his diet was homecooked, that lasted 2 weeks. "
"There's a huge difference between 24 pounds and 4 pounds. Katie and Willow go through 30 pounds in almost a month. I guess if we wanted a new bag every 4 days it would work... What happened to the 10 or 15 pound bag? That seems more reasonable…"
"I'm pretty sure we talked about this here somewhere before. I did indeed look at the Complete Health version of the Simple formulas, and they are identical. I guess they just wanted to simplify their product lines. No pun intended, lol. "
Here is where the smaller Wellness bags have “gone”...
hi doodle friends,I have fed Ollie girl the Wellness LID Simple Salmon and Potato for over 2 years now, but recently couldn’t find anywhere the smaller bags, which I prefer. They’re more convenient, stay fresher, and we know the happy that comes from a new bag, eh? I pay a little more, but it has been worth it. I know others feel the same.So, I decided to write to them asking WHY they would make that change...FYI, below is their response, in case you’re in the same boat. ;-)Dear C.S.,Thank you…See More
"Congrats Jasper (and Karen!) ;) Nice!!"
"I do think they have plans to bomb the house. All I know is I'm keeping my dogs home until they're sure they've gotten rid of them. Just in case."
"OR...your mom could treat the house and kill everything before it has a chance to grow up and bite the cat again. :) "
"There aren't really fleas in the house. Adult fleas live only on a host. There are eggs, then larvae, then pupae, then adult fleas. From egg to adult flea takes 3-5 weeks in an occupied house. So the treatment will work to irradicate the fleas…"
"Just a little anecdotal incident today - my mom's cat was at the vet and turns out Kitty has fleas. Lots of them. She's been on Frontline. The vet told my mom that Frontline doesn't work and switched Kitty to Revolution. I know that…"
"Stacy is right. She picked up a couple that hadn't had a chance to die yet. "
"Frontline renders the fleas incapable of reproducing. It's not a big deal to find a live flea or two on a dog who's on prevents. Relax. Go ahead and give the Capstar if it makes you feel better, but you can be pretty sure there won;t be…"
"I used Frontline and Frontline for 13 years and it worked just fine.
Capstar only kills anything that is present at the time you give it. It will not only not kill eggs and larva, it also won't provide any protection going forward.…"
"Years ago we would bathe the dog to kill fleas. I found this you may want to check out. https://www.google.com/amp/s/lifehacker.com/kill-fleas-on-your-pets-with-dish-soap-1193817704/amp"
"I think just a regular bath might do the trick at least temporarily, provided there's not a huge infestation. Maybe she just picked a couple up in the yard and they hadn't had a chance to die yet.
I'm like you. I haven't…"
"Not an expert, but I would not double dose on the frontline. It's still a pesticide, and I'm not sure that's the best plan. I'm also cautious about the flea shampoos. I know some of the "off" brand flea treatments have…"

Had to stop it. He had loose stools after only 2 days and on the third day, he brought up his breakfast. Can't risk an IBD flare, so back to the drawing board. There are just so few options for him. Thanks for asking about him, Cindy. Is Olive's paw better?

Hi Cindy, I just asked my husband, and we can't remember when exactly she stopped. Sometime between 8 and 10 months for sure. She was really young with the thread, the balloon was during a growth spurt. The menstrual pad was when she was under a year, too. But I think she'd still eat one of those. She's pretty good now. She only eats food she shouldn't eat now. Really any food, on counters, on chairs, etc....

Anytime! My pleasure. Those early puppy days made me so nutty, and now it seems like so long ago.

Thanks so much for thinking of Murphy. He's doing better now although he's still on antibiotics and nothing but boiled chicken and rice. They're pretty sure he has IBD, and that's not good. Now it's about finding the right meds to keep it controlled and a food that he can tolerate....can't live on chicken and rice forever I really appreciate you're asking. How's that cutie Rippley doing?

Thank you for the friendship request! I love the pictures of Rippley. In some of them he looks like he's deep in thought about something big...what a cutie.
Brenda Aloff is a guru of dog behavior and training of ALL types of dogs with all kinds of behavior needs. I'm glad you like what you've seen so far of the video.
