Oh no! If your eyes were burning, it makes sense that tender skin and hair could be affected. Did the PT's have anything to say? It would be tempting to try soothing coconut oil topically if my vet...

Yes! Our vet mentioned coconut oil when our whippet was very ill. Darcey gets a little mixed in her food, and topically as needed. This was the food dose I remembered reading, and to work up to it to...

....ohhhhh.... kibble size! Yes, that has been a big factor with us. Itsy bitsy teeny weenie kibble works best. (keeping in mind large crunchy treats are never ever a problem) :scratch:

There's a...

P.P.S. Just like drinking water, she will eat when fully at ease.

I've seen her dream with raised hackles, and I've seen her dream with a very happy wagging tail. Some of her setbacks and leaps...

Our completely healthy doxie mix was/is pulling this ruse with us!! :rotfl:

1) We talked to our vet: teeth are marvelous, healthy all around!
2) Toys: Does she chomp on Nylabones? Yes- until her...

Darcey's bump was a surface skin bump. It kept getting larger and more red, and due to the inflammation it looked like hair fell off. (It was near her snout, so we called it her beauty mark to keep...

Adorable!!!
Darcey, our doxie-mix, loves fetch ...and we are constantly working on "give it." Maybe they can play together? (:

Oh, Geesh! Sending you hugs!

We just had a long mystery-bump mystery. New-to-us vet ruled out fungal and bacterial situations, leaving just plain scary stuff. A fine-needle aspiration (-OK three...

Sending you mega rays and hugs!!
Also, no one can assess your baby unless 1) boots are on ground and 2) one is family. I'm so sorry you had to deal with such negativity on FB, when you need hope...

I have no idea what you are talking about... :scratch: Glad you are home and reunited! (-if you need pages of notes, you know who to ask!) :bighug:

Thank you so much! If you need a password for the video, it is: Foster
No worries, though! It seems like nothing has changed, but everything is different.

8 months later.... It turns out that the best possible Forever Family is with us!! Our veterinarian is thrilled, her puppy teacher is thrilled, and of course- we are THRILLED!!

I think we were...

Missy, and many other dachshunds, are available for adoption through http://dachshundrescueoflosangeles.com

If you need assistance with dachshund rescue in Southern California, this is one...

:cheer3::cheer3: She is being pulled and fostered!! :cheer3::cheer3:
(If it's me, I'll sure be surprised!) It looks like a few rescue groups tried to pull her from the shelter today, but she is on...

This shelter is near Palm Springs / Coachella- perfect for a last-minute spring break getaway... just saying'. :)

On the FB link, there is someone from LA working on it but resources are tight....

:thankyou:
I'm trying a Thundershirt on our foster, and she does well with it. However- Holy Velcro!! There is a lot, and it's not a relaxing sound. Plus the neck tab is fun to chew. Our behaviorist...

Darcey Wigglebottom Bussell is such a joy!! We completed a 6-week puppy class in a group setting with a very experienced behaviorist. It was really fun to see her grow, and to learn new things...

You are doing a great job!! Training takes time, as you know. I just re-read a great quote from Pat Miller's Do Over Dogs, "If you think you are going too slow, slow down."

The vet tech said many...

She's posted for adoption! (I have to zoom-out, and remember the goal was to get her pulled from a high-kill shelter and into any foster care.)

She is one amazing pup. Perfect for experienced...

Who would?! :cutiepie2 :love98:

Oh Rae! None of our dogs understood puppy pads, and insisted on going outside every time. (yay seniors!)

I made a double-wide runway of puppy pads for our current foster. 2x8 is her current...

Mega zoomies this morning! Then she settled down to cuddle and play. She is amazing. Yes, I would love love love to be her forever family. 100%.

The hard part… she deserves a home with more room...

Have you tried the Buster Food Cube? Pokey had something similar back in the day, very durable. Link: http://www.amazon.com/OurPets-Buster-Interactive-Large-Colors/dp/B003A23HZK

The Tricky Treat...

So great to hear that it helped someone!
