Yes, sometimes it is information overload and too many horrific possibilities presented - I've learned to take it all with a grain of salt . . but take away what I can; learn what I can; don't panic over what I read.
On the other hand, I've learned things here that I wouldn't even think about asking my Vet - like the use of harnesses; treats like cheerios and apple . . Vegetarian kibble; lowfat cottage cheese.
I've learned countless things on YT and for that I am grateful.
Sift through the information that you are given; keep a clear head; be informed; trust your instinct and hopefully your Vet! This is what I've learned to do. |
yep prepare for the worst and hope for the best because what if it is the worst and you could have helped your dog but because you did not have an open mind to what could be going on then won't you have regrets if your dog dies?
Some of us have lost dogs at the hands of a vet and some of us like myself have almost lost dogs at the hand of a vet and because of our quick thinking and getting our dog to a specialist our dogs are alive today
