    All three are on Heartguard... But I'm assuming that most dogs are.

    Eli is on Deramaxx, and has been for the last two months, for his spine problem. He started out on 3/4 a pill everyday, then I cut it down to 1/2 a pill every day (Because its easier than cuting a round pill in quarters!). Now he's on half a pill every other day. He seems to be just as comfortable and playful on the half every other day as he was when he took it everyday.

    Not sure how long the Deramaxx will last. Probably going to have his liver levels tested tomorrow when we go in for annual shots. Surgery really isnt a good option for him at this time. It's not bad enough to make the super invasive surgery worth-while. The problem areas are down by the hips, where they'd put a plate in.

    Zeke gets eye drops sometimes... he seems really prone to eye infections. Probably going to get more tomorrow, while he's getting his annual shots as well.

    Bunny doesnt require any special medication, and never has in the past.

    Bunny: BoxerxSheppard mix, Eli: Boxer, Treo: Boxer
    Zeke [RB]: RottweilerxAustrailian Cattle Dog mix


    Oscar & Chloe: White's Tree Frogs, Kiwi & Wasabi: Green Tree Frogs

    Besides the normal heartworm meds.......both girls are taking glucosamine-chondroitin every day for their arthritis. Thank goodness that's it.


    I've been Boo'd...
    Thanks Barry!
