So, do your research so you're an informed "parent", but don't panic and look for things that aren't there. |
Yes it is sort of scary to think what could happen. I am feeding him well & he gets his walk (or 2) everyday, plus play time morning & evening. Bathed weekly, brushed morning & night & his nightly tooth brushing before bed. Healthy treats and endless love. I was a very over protective mother to my one & only skinkid also, he laughs now (he is 33) because the puppy is getting it & he thinks he is off the hook. noooo!
