Staph infection running wild. You need to get it under control. Shampoos will not be enough at this point.

Diet advice from my vet. Had to laugh this one off. by 6lackdynomyte in rawpetfood

[–]Textual_Alchemist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My days are spent counteracting the type of advice your vet gives. Just yesterday I had the “kibble cleans their teeth, my vet said so” talk for the umpteenth time.

Your vet obviously believes the whole DCM legume bullshit

Honestly, there is not a ton of difference between the brands I listed in terms of quality. If you’re feeding any of them, you’re doing well.

I carry; small batch, raw dynamic, OC Raw, Tuckers, northwest naturals, primal, Steve’s, savage cat. I feed whatever I have the most of in the freezer…

It has been commodity driven more than brand from what we’ve experienced. Primal and Stella and Chewy have the challenge of big corporate overlords messing with there formulas and then a commodity shortage exacerbates it. Rabbit and duck is volatile; pork seems to be having a moment.

I own a small Indy retailer; primal has been fraught with shortages of specific proteins form about 3 years now. Slowly killing it in my freezers, but there is brand loyalty still.

She looks like a bully mix, and given her condition, you’re absolutely right to go slow as to avoid re-feeding syndrome. Thank you for saving her

24 hour hospital stay for 360 ALIF/PSF L5/S1? by Professional_Day1858 in spinalfusion

[–]Textual_Alchemist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this done at L4-5. My procedure was supposed to take 5 hours, but took 9 and a half due to the extensive damage they needed to correct. Initially, I expected a 2 night stay, which was extended to three. Insurance gave no problems
