I for one like reading the posts that people ask about something being wrong with their dogs and possibly someone else has been through it. It really helps when you take your dog in and the vet cannot figure out what is wrong and maybe because of someone else's experience you suggest testing for something and you either find out that's what it is or you end up ruling that out. I know my vet listens to me when I bring up things I have learned on here. When I mentioned where the tail was supposed to be docked he actually said I was the first person that had asked it to be done at a specific length. Everyone else would just come in and say they needed the tails and dews done. So they did it by a chart they have. I also have to say if it hadn't been for dwerten posting about Pancreatitis I wouldn't have learned what I needed to know to pass on to Maggies new owners.
