BEWARE WHAT YOUR CORGI EATS AND DRINKS!

We almost lost our dear Joey last week due to vomiting and diarrhea. He's an old guy and older dogs can go downhill very quickly when this happens. Fortunately our doctor in Marina Del Rey California helped us over the phone with a diagnosis and a perscription for an antibiotic. Joey has recovered completely!

But we believe his gastroenteritis was due to drinking pavement water that was sitting in the sun and had parasites. Also Joey is a scavenger and will eat anything that looks slightly good. So we walk him with a tight leash now or in "Safe" areas. Watch where your little guy goes to eat and drink. We are so happy our Joey is back to health again. Thanks to Dr Shane!!!
