Myra has the cutest face. She weighs in at only 17 pounds. She's several pounds underweight.
Well poor Corgi/Sheltie mix Myra has lost her first foster home here in Salt Lake County. It was reported that she was drinking large amounts of water and urinating both outside and inside and very often, possibly even leaking in addition. Were we looking at a urinary tract infection? Could it be end stages of kidney disease? Some other disease that would also mean the end stages of her life? Would...

The link below is the first of 16 posts at http://DreamSequel.com with photos and details of where weve been and how many things Jim learned to repair on our way to the Bahamas and on our way home from the Bahamas crossing the gulf stream in both directions being in blue water for literally days at a time, and rounding all the Florida keys twice. I have a new found awe in Jims abilities to deal with almost anything boat-related.

As a nonprofit organization Sheltie Rescue of Utah cannot invest a significant portion of our funds to influence political decisions.

The previous post by one of Sheltie Rescue of Utahs favorite adopters, Sharon St. John, raises so many important topics that I wanted to make a post out of my detailed reply to her post. Barbara Edelberg
There is SO much kidney disease rampant in dogs and cats that you really cant attribute the occurrence of it to a single medication even long term as rimadyl usually is administered. Generally, the first organ that rimadyl impacts is the liver. Because this is a known issue, vets that...Recall of Canine Kibble Includes; Chicken Soup for the Pet Lover’s Soul, Country Value, Diamond, Diamond Naturals, Premium Edge, Professional, 4Health,Taste of the Wild
