I had a Westie, that past over the rainbow bridge late March, that was allergic to storage mites. Storage mites are basically in anything stored on shelves in warehouses or stores for longer periods of time, like dry kibble, flour, grains and the like. So essentially he couldn't eat any dry nothing, so we went on raw and he did great. Of course he was also allergic to mold and flea saliva. Mold allergy and living in Houston, TX is a bad combo, it is everywhere, due to the humidity we have, and of course that also makes fleas very hardy. Bogus was on frontline and advantage together most of his life, that was the only way to keep fleas off of him and fur on him. He lived to be 13 years, which for me is way too young, but for a dog that has been on steroids and several meds throughout his life, realisticly it is not short. Either way, he clearly should not have been considered a breeding dog, even thought he was a beautiful example of what West Highland White Terriers should be like. My point, it depends on what type of allergies the dog has and the severity of them, in my ever so humble opinion..
Kinetic Breeding Plans

Oh so sweet. This has been a great thread Lisa, thank you … I have so enjoyed the anticipation and then getting to see the little cute beasties
-
Lisa, they are absolutely adorable!!
major jealousy here.

ugh, i can't stand it! i tried to smush the photo on my monitor, don't think the computer liked that too much. I just looovves those smushy pink baby toesies. I like to rub them on my face too. <sigh>thanks for the virtual fix. i've taken the liberty to save the pic on my computer. somewhere i also have a pic of pink baby collie toesies. I'm waiting to hear if my tri-ing dog is going to be a daddy. hopefully i can get a real fix there.</sigh>
-
Who was your "tri-ing" boy bred to?….. too cool.... I think he is just the nicest boy....
-
Thanks, he was bred to Pat Bird's Zena, Ch. Moksha's Zena by JR. Hopefully Pat will get what she wants out of it. Unfortunately, the timing isn't right for me to get a puppy (I have 2 youngerish dogs here right now and I do lots of training with the agility and all). But I will go up there to smush puppy toesies. I think it looks like an interesting breeding as the two aren't related but are both Am stock. Both clear parents, so hopeful puppies will have a good start there. Should know later this week if Zena is with pups.

I was going to post some video but I am having technical difficulties so everyone will have to just be happy with a still photo until I figure out why the video doesn't work on Photobucket but plays fine on my computer.
