Sam got a fatty lump removed (again) so he has to wear a shirt for a while to keep him off his stitches.

Home today working on a proposal...got to take the dogs out more than usual (they are out at least and hour and a half a day).
Rika and Cassie. Perry, the JRT, was a bit evasive. We were along the water on the farm. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1399492461.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1399492517.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1399492590.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1399492623.jpg |

What breads are they Bazza?
They look like they could be Australian Blue Heelers, especially the smaller one near the fence. |
Yes Peter....both Blue Heelers aka Queensland Heelers aka Australian Cattle Dogs.

Our 2.5 y/o Welsh Terrier should be coming home this morning from an emergency surgery. Yesterday in the TV room, happened to look over at her and noticed something small hanging from her mouth. Realized that she was eating a piece of thread with a sewing needle on the end. Dashed across the room to get it from her...only to have her gobble it faster to make sure I couldn't get the rare treat from her. (Too bad I couldn't just pull out a piece of bacon to distract her.) She came out of the surgery ok. A $1700 sewing needle. They were able to push the needle through the wall of her stomach and pull it through so they didn't have to make a second incision. They didn't have orthoscopic equipment so that wasn't an option. She was at the vet's within 12 minutes of eating the needle and in surgery shortly after that, so there wasn't time for the needle to start puncturing surrounding organs. Although the time from my seeing the thread to it disappearing down her throat was just a relatively few seconds, in retrospect, what I did was try to open her mouth to fish out the thread. That gave her time to swallow. Should something like this happen again, one thing I'll consider is grabbing and firmly placing a hand around her muzzle - which might limit her ability to pull the last of it into her mouth. Not sure if it would matter. But an option I'll try to keep in mind. This isn't exactly the kind of thing we train for. She should be coming home late this morning and will probably have to take it easy for 2-3 weeks....which will be hard to enforce on a young terrier. |

Those 4 sections of fence were taken down while the Bamboo was removed and were only tacked up when this pic was taken so the girls would not get out. They will be repaired/replaced as needed later this week. Now when you have Labs....your inspection team has a different kind of style....more laid back..... :D http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1401117750.jpg |
I found out my Beagle LOVES red grapes......left a bowl on the coffee table:rolleyes: Red grapes with seeds in them....should be harmless I am guessing? Maybe she will get the runs or something. Should I have any other concerns? Probably ate about a half pound of the suckers!

Grapes are very bad for your dog
From the ASPCA Site Grapes and Raisins Grapes and raisins have recently been associated with the development of kidney failure in dogs. At this time, the exact cause of the kidney failure isn’t clear, nor is it clear why some dogs can eat these fruits without harm, while others develop life-threatening problems after eating even a few grapes or raisins. Some dogs eat these fruits and experience no ill effects—but then eat them later on and become very ill. Until the cause of the toxicosis is better identified, the safest course of action is to avoid feeding grapes or raisins to your dog. Dogs experiencing grape or raisin toxicosis usually develop vomiting, lethargy or diarrhea within 12 hours of ingestion. As signs progress, dogs become increasingly lethargic and dehydrated, refuse to eat and may show a transient increase in urination followed by decreased or absent urination in later stages. Death due to kidney failure may occur within three to four days, or long-term kidney disease may persist in dogs who survive the acute intoxication. Successful treatment requires prompt veterinary treatment to maintain good urine flow Foods That Are Hazardous to Dogs | ASPCA |
