not at all. that includes the syringes and needles.

the owner would need to do them themselves other wise it would cost a bomb. vet fees and all that.

with the jabs H picked up within 24 hrs. all the symptoms you mentioned he had plus copraphagia, wind, lethargy, poor coat and depression.

these do appear slowly and can be missed as they are not so obvious.

She does have a poor coat but is far from depressed, her behaviour can be erratic,but I think that may be because she is on the hunt for food a lot...
Where are the jabs given?

Mollie started life with her gluten intolerance she was a rescue and they thought it was just that she was upset with all the changes but the runs and blood loss and weight loss continued after we took her on. We spent more time at the vets in that first year than at home,it felt like.
She has returning bouts only if someone else feeds her as we are 100% on the ball when it comes to her diet. And this is why I get so angry when strangers offer her treats they don't seem to understand just one normal dog biscuit can give her bloody diarrhea for days. Even the vet is guilty of doing it and I have had several angry exchanges when they don't listen and still offer her a biscuit !!

Very easy to manage once you know what it is! Frump had bouts of abdo swelling, diarrhoea and wind for years on and off, and we knew that any change at all in diet seemed to affect him. He stayed with a friend once while we were on holiday and obviously found it stressful being without us, as when we got back his poor abdomen was swollen and he had had diarrhoea for days. Once the vet made the diagnosis that firework night, we were sorted! Switching to gluten and wheat free is the only way, not even a small normal biscuit can be allowed,it will bring back the symptoms. WE used to put an old yoga mat by the back door when we were out, so he could use that if he was caught short ( easy to teach) that made it so much easier to clean up, just rinse it under the bath tap and it would be ready again in an hour for next use. It really is easy to deal with, you just have to know they have it! Good luck

Try tinned Chappie original, don't laugh, try it for a week and see if it helps. Smells horrid but does not spread it's self about your floors overnight like a dog with a bad tummy.

That is true, I was not aware it had been diagnosed as gluten intolerance.
