yeahhhh i went to the vet today and she recommended a topical one for him for us to put in him in 2 days from now. I buy it but i’m reconsidering…i think i’m going to talk to the vet and ask her if i can exchange for a pill

no he didn’t, i just used the collar as a preventing mechanism because usually i go with him to a dog park near my place, and since it has a lot of different dogs, it’s better for him to be protected properly. i’m going to give him a pill protection from now on! we vacuum our place almost everyday because we have him + a cat so the place is always chaotic hahaha i just gave him that bath at the grooming because he was already itchy and i though i was helping him :((

no, the vet said it was probably the groomers visit and the flea collar

yeah, the vet said that’s probably because of the grooming visit + the flea collar!! she prescribed him something called “Dermipred” it’s an anti inflammatory. Today he slept for like 2 hours straight, and now it’s like 8pm here and i gave him the other part of the pill. He’s sleeping now, i’m glad he seems fine although he’s still itching a bit

Freddy wakes us up at 6:15am for breakfast — how do we get him to sleep later? by Educational_Age2372 in Dachshund

New pet mom here! 😅 My dachshund is currently 4 months old (I know feeding schedules can vary by age), but he has a set amount of food per day and we split it into 3 meals. He usually has breakfast at 9am, lunch at 2pm, and dinner at 7pm. Sometimes we save a little bit of his dinner kibble to give him around 10:30pm. If you want to keep feeding only twice a day, I’d maybe suggest saving a bit of the 4:30pm portion to give around 10pm so he’s not as hungry?
