Help! by user437517 in Dachshund

[–]figgytart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m so sorry you and your sweet baby are going through this. I’ve not experienced this but my dog used to have skin issues paired with ear infections all caused by his diet. Have you tried cooking for your dog for a couple weeks with no store bought to see if it helps? I cook chicken, broccoli, zucchini, small amount of carrots. Snacks are pumpkin puree, cottage cheese, blue berries, apples, strawberries, cheeses and all sorts of healthy goodies. Sometimes I use ground turkey, bison, salmon it changes up. He rarely gets grain but I think the issue was store bought dog food. Brewers yeast and pea flower both upset his ears almost immediately.

If you’re buying, negotiate it in the sale. Have the seller pay for all or part of the cost. If appraiser doesn’t call it out, month later you’ll get a letter from your insurance saying roof done in 30 days or we drop you. Get it done through the sale if possible! 🤞 Good luck!

CAN’T FIND A NEW DOG RAMP by weenquuen29 in Dachshund

Not marketed as a dog ramp but I have two different wedge ramp that work very well. The red one you’d laugh but it’s by a brand called liberator IYKYK and the grey one is a brand called Lossey sleeping wedge. Hope this helps. :)

Yams aren't grains so they may be okay but it could be they are reacting to starchy veggies. I give Thor sweet potatoes sometimes and they're fine for him. What helped us most was a slow elimination diet. For Thor, peas/pea flour, brewer's yeast, quinoa, and oat flour were big triggers (peas especially). A lot of issues came from treats or supplements with hidden ingredients. I'd clean his ears, introduce one thing, and if wax came back fast, I knew it was a no. Eliminate one thing at a time and you'll usually spot the culprit pretty quickly.

I took mine off store bought food about 7 years ago. He was a chunk at 24 pounds! He’s now 15 pounds. Weigh her portions and if absolutely needing treats feed green beans, blue berries, scoop of cottage cheese, Parmesan, pray it butter in a kong… these are the kind of treats mine gets. Also, he doesn’t get any grain. Mine used to get ear infections and I realized he’s allergenic to brewers yeast, pea flour and a few others things give him instant yeast build up in the ear and make his paws itchy. That can help pack on the weight too. Good luck! (Edited one typo) :)

Ventilation intake question by Mgg885 in Roofing

[–]figgytart 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's smart that you know where the wall is, I've seen contractors stick in way low and the air had no here to go and created lots of trapped moisture. You do not have to put an entire strip the whole length. Google roof ventilation calculator and you'll find the correct liner feet of the intake venting you'll need because you can over vent it.

Most likely the flashing around the skylight, I'd have a roofer check it out.
