    Eyes go bad fast… you do not want a rupture. Please get the dog to the specialist as soon as you possibly can.

    Joe Mallozzi had it done with his very old pug and got good results– from ready to put down to able to get around and live a normal life. LOL Mallozzi is the only blog I read, every day. It is --- dogs, food, science fiction stuff, dogs, food, food, food, dogs, sci fi, dogs, food. You can follow the stem cell story starting here: http://josephmallozzi.wordpress.com/2010/07/13/july-13-2010-this-blog-goes-to-the-dogs-again-some-house-of-suns-discussion-and-the-mailbag/

    Oh, this is tough. I had a b who had back issues and would wake up screaming ever 1hr. We tried everything to control his pain..even morphine patches directly on his skin. We never could get the pain managed. We gave him peace of the rainbow bridge. I am so sorry this isn't more positive.

    I just talked to one of the geneticists working with this group yesterday at the ACoD. They are also looking for bitches who had mammary tumors. If I understood correctly they may also consider other cancer types if they can get 60 dogs of the same breed with the same type of cancer.

    In the 15 years that we had Maxx, we never used any kind of flea product…and he never had fleas. We haven't used anything on Gracie or Blaze, either, and neither of them have fleas. If we ever do see fleas, our first line of defense would be a natural product of some kind. Only if the natural products didn't work would I resort to chemicals. Of course, YMMV. Dr. Pitcairn's Complete Guide to Natural Health for Dogs & Cats has information on natural flea products. I'm sure there are other books and/or websites that do, too…just do a Google search.
