Addie CL1- CL2 NAJ if it moves,- I'll chase it!     Barked: Thu May 16, '13 8:49am PST  As stated before, there is a difference usually, calories, fat, protein, and often calcium / phosphorus ratios. The reason why they have these foods is because for most people they do not wantto have to think about it and just replace with an adult food thats less calories etc when the dog gets older.. as the metabolism slows down, less of these are required, so for some people its easier just to get a different food, rather than take the time to figure out exactly how much to feed and monitor weight on the same food once a dog reaches maturity. Its not 100% needed, especially if you know what you're doing. but, I think most people dont my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Addie CL1- CL2 NAJ if it moves,- I'll chase it!     Barked: Tue May 14, '13 6:16am PST  I think the main problem is that these products are available to everyone to buy on their own, try to train on their own, and can adjust on their own. If you have the average person adjusting it, they may do way too much or way too little, give the dog one 'shock' and think the dog is trained. If someone wants to do it, have it professionally done and professionally trained. Those systems the owner can NOT adjust the collar, but the trainer does. A properly trained dog over several weeks or even a month or two is very unlikley to go accross if the correct steps are taken. Not taking a stance either way, just pointing out what i've seen. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Raw Food Diet > heartworm preventative...yes or no?

Addie CL1- CL2 NAJ if it moves,- I'll chase it!     Barked: Tue May 14, '13 6:09am PST  I have no problem whatsoever giving Addie heartworm prevention. We currently use sentinel. I live in the midwst ( ohio ) and its very prevelent here. Being a vet tech, i've even seen a dog come up positive in the winter at our clinic. ( My guess it was bitten shortly before the frost.. we had a late winter last year) and she did not give heartworm prevention over the winter. It is much easier and cheaper to prevent than to treat. Again, I suppose it is about where you live, but for the most part I would almost always suggest it. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Raw Food Diet > Partial RAW?

Addie CL1- CL2 NAJ if it moves,- I'll chase it!     Barked: Wed May 1, '13 2:13pm PST  Good for you for at least supplimenting! Addie is mostly raw, but does get kibble now and then ( Orijen). I certainly feel whole foods are much better than processed foods for an entire lifetime, human, canine or otherwise. Theres been numberous studies to show natural source vitamins offer protection from diseases ( no known protection from synthetics) and are better absorbed than synthetic versions, which is what is in kibble. I have nothing against kibble, but when I can feed raw, I do my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Dog Health > Idiot offering ear cropping & other veterinary services out of their garage!

Addie CL1- CL2 NAJ if it moves,- I'll chase it!     Barked: Wed May 1, '13 2:07pm PST  This does not state if he's a vet, but if not, it is 100% illegal to practice vet med without a license, even us vet techs can get in trouble for doing sx, prescribing meds etc. Contact local Humane society, police and the AVMA my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Addie CL1- CL2 NAJ if it moves,- I'll chase it!     Barked: Mon Apr 15, '13 6:25am PST  Addie's never had any reactinos so it doesnt matter for us, but I AM looking into doing titers next time.. If you're worried about vomiting, give a tiny bit before, and at dinner time, give a full meal. Going a few extra hours without much food wont hurt my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Raw Food Diet > What does your average raw diet week look like?

Addie CL1- CL2 NAJ if it moves,- I'll chase it!     Barked: Wed Apr 10, '13 3:39pm PST  Really whatever I can find, as long as it's close to the 80% 10% 10% Typically: chicken thigh, chicken liver duck neck, ground mixture, pig brain, egg Frog legs, beef kidney/heart, a little bit of ground meat Rabbit portion with organs attached ( on eto two pieces of cut up whole rabbit) goat chunks, has some organ attached but I usually throw in some liver or kidney as well, pig brain if I still have some I throw in sardines, whiting, raw pig ear / pig trotters, chicken feet, bargin bin steak or ground beef and other random goodies when I find them ( in ratio of course).. I dont have a set 'meal plan' but usually this about the stuff I feed. Every once in a while I will throw some veggies in for a treat, because Addie likes them my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

American Pit Bull Terrier > I just got a pit puppy and I was wondering if anyone can tell me what kind of pit its is. TY

Addie CL1- CL2 NAJ if it moves,- I'll chase it!     Barked: Wed Apr 3, '13 10:25am PST  I think Pinkie looks a lot like Addie did when she was a puppy ( I have a puppy pic on her site). Addie is 50% pit, 50% mutt of some sort ( dad was a mixed breed). Shes probably pure pittie or a mix. As posted before, theres only one breed but there are different colors. Color really truely doesnt matter, and some people try to make money off it , just preference my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

American Pit Bull Terrier > When someone asks what kind of dog you have

Addie CL1- CL2 NAJ if it moves,- I'll chase it!     Barked: Wed Apr 3, '13 10:17am PST  It highly depends on what sort of person I am talking to.. if I can tell they're a pet person I'm happy to say pit bull mix, but if I come across someone who I can tell is 'a bit weird' about that sort of thing, I say 'she's a mutt'. Some people are SO stuck in their ways they refuse to listen to anything good you have to say, its pointless to waste time and breath on them. I've had people flat out ask me if she 'has pit in her' and I will then usually tell them that her mom was a pit bull and dad was a mutt. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]
