Ask a Vet

[Karen]

Anybody want to be part of a new radio show segment on All Paws Pet Talk? Taping after me on Wednesday will be "Ask a Vet" with Dr. Carol, and you could call in with a question, and she'd answer it 'on air' with you.

PM me if you are interested, okay?

[Karen]

Got one response, anyone else?

Hi Karen,
Groucho has been doing something lately that I'm very curious about. As soon as I get my glucometer to check my blood sugar, Groucho comes from wherever he is, jumps on my lap and starts with headbumpies and kisses getting in the way of doing the test. I'm currently on 2 types of insulin, During this time he'll reach out his paw and gently stroke one of the insulin pens but never the other one. He doesn't try to knock it off the table or play with it though. Groucho does this whether I'm low, high, or in range.
I'm curious about why he started doing this suddenly and out of nowhere.

On the General Dog thread someone had bought up giving vasectomies to dogs. Is that something new that has come out as a choice between castration? Would it be less evasive surgery?

Thanks, folks. I just got the audio files and emailed them to Pomtzu and Kirsten and moosmom, we didn't get to your (Bonny and momcat) questions this time, but hope to next week. I'll send you each a PM when it gets closer to Wednesday, when we record the shows, okay?

Thanks Karen - I got my file. I was glad to be able to get in on the ground floor of all of this.

I also sent you an email..........

[Karen]

Thanks!

So anyone else have any questions they would like to ask a vet? It can be big or small, or even just something you have wondered about but never remembered to ask when you were in the office ...

[Karen]

So I will email everyone the audio files once I get them! Glad folks were able to call in today, and I hope it went well for you!

[Karen]

Sorry Michelle and Cheryl, I haven't sent out the audio files yet, I will do it later today!

So anyone have any questions for the vet this week? Dr. Carol does a good, thorough job and is really knowledgeable, has many years of experience but is still open to new ideas, etc.

[Karen]

momcat, I just sent you the audio file from that day, in case you want to listen again!

[Karen]

So anyone have any vet questions for this week? Dr. Carol answers them quite thoroughly, whatever they are! Let me know!

[Karen]

So, anyone have any questions for the vet this week? Specific, or something you have just always wondered about - either way!
