I hear ya, not your dog, not your decision. Why did he not neuter his pup? Unless you're breeding, it's really just so much healthier and better for them (I'm helping you with your arguments here, lol). And Milo needs you! It's hard -- intact males just court trouble, unfortunately. But maybe he and Milo can still work it out -- ask WendtWorth corgis or some of the other breeders on the site, they must have ideas!
The new vet is going very well. She took Sky off of the harmful meds immediately and prescribed a course of treatment I am much more comfortable with. It is a large clinic, so it doesn't have the personalize, small-town feel of my last vet, but she seems to be very familiar with the herding breeds and their needs. I think we may have found a winner!
Sorry to hear about all the junk going on wtih Milo. That is such a bummer when you are just trying to do a nice thing!
Yeah, I have actually been becoming increasingly uncomfortable with my vet for the past month or so, and after he prescribed something for my Aussie this weekend that Aussies are not ever supposed to have, I'd had the last straw, so to speak. I have made the tough decision to find a new vet. He is a very, very nice man, but I just don't feel comfortable putting my animal's health in his hands anymore. Lyla will be seeing a new vet on Friday and I will ask her then. Thanks for your help!
Thanks for your response! I did call the vet, but since she doesn't seem to have any other signs of a UTI, or any signs of feeling bad at all, he wasn't concerned. He said it might just be normal for her. Have you ever heard of that? I've only had boy dogs before so I don't know much about the girls! =)
I know how you feel about giving up such a wonderful soul. A guy I was dating decided it was me or the pets. Needless to say... Our pack has increased steadily. Mostly by adding dogs and their people to our semi-daily walks, and our wonderful outings in the woods...
Henry is about 25, and looks funny in a collar. His neck is larger than his head, so he can just toss his head in a certain way and off the collar goes...
Henry, we think is a dorgi (doxie/corgi cross). Most people see the corgi, few see the doxie. They actually think he's corgi/and those little mexican dogs... look through petfinder.com. they have a lot of corgi x on these...
I'm sure the shelter will make the right decision. Let's just keep our fingers crossed he does well w/his treatment and that perfect family comes along.
Thanks for the encouragement. I have high hopes that love and patience and peace and quiet will continue the good work that the current foster family has done. She has been w/ them 2.5 months and is taking a long time to venture out of her fear . . . however, if I had gone through what she has, I would be suspicious/afraid too. I saw Milo recently and think he's a dandy guy. I'll post Daisy pictures when things settle down.
Thanks! I hope the camera won't scare her. I can't imagine what it must be like to have lived in those conditions and then find yourself in a clean, quiet, safe environment. Must be like the POWs who have so much difficulty re-entering the world after years in captivity. I just hope that Miss Daisy will thrive here and learn that people love her.
Its hard to let go but you can't keep them all and w/the people that want them it does make it easier since they are excellent homes for them. To bad they didn't all get along for you but maybe it happens that way so you have no choice but to rehome him. When that perfect home comes along it will make you feel more secure about it and will help to make it easier as well. Good luck to you.
Thats what I thought. Its hard doing rescue..you get an attachment to the dog but its not wise for you to keep them but you get worried about if you've chosen the right home. Very nerve racking and emotional situation. I completely understand.

So she's still young enough to be on puppy food either way. You have time to decide. :)
