ROFLMAO... Once again you started off my day with a big smile and some very good info..... The Coneheads reference was also timely since this weekend is apparently the 40th Anniversary of SNL! (Really... a small cow, eh? I will have to pass that on to my dog owning friends...LOLOLOL)
Why does my dog only like to play with things that aren't his toy's, for example my socks, hats, news papers , cat toys (my cats aren't happy about this), cardboard, rope and other stuff. but not his own toys
Lmao XD I tell everyone at work they need to watch yoir videos. Including the top 5 ways vets can annoy their techs and stuff. XD Hehe Egh I have a friend who would probably try thosem. She thought the horse treats I had would taste like apple because they really smelled like apples. She was wrong. XD
Wanted to point out that anyone with a pet bird should be careful about any cleaning product, especially sprays, as they can be irritating to the avian respiratory tract. But that's birds, and everyone knows birds are odd.
I love, love, LOVE your show! Giving people good information and making it entraining (so that it's more likely to stick) is a rare gift and you have it in abundance! My suggestion for a future segment is one devoted to the fact that animals aren't tiny people and can't have all the same medicines and foods as people? I still encounter people that want to feed their pets chocolate and raisins and give them ibuprofen when they are sick.
Vashta Nerada - garlic is fine in moderation. I use Bug Off garlic granules for flea and tick prevention (yes, it does work despite what is stated in this video). The air dried granules that I use have a much lower content of thiosulphate than raw garlic. My dog gets 2 scoops per day - about a tablespoon....the toxic dose for a dog his size would be over 2 POUNDS per day. No dog would willingly eat that much! As far as other things to stay away from, you've covered most of your bases with grapes, raisins, and onions. Really, dogs do not need fruits or vegetables. If you are going to feed them, they should be steamed or pureed. Dogs cannot digest whole, raw veggies (you'll notice they come out looking the same as they did when they went in!). For my own raw fed dogs, I do just a tiny bit of kale and blueberries blended with coconut oil, apple cider vinegar, and raw, local honey (for allergies). I freeze into cubes and give them each a cube each morning with breakfast.
Boxergirls That was a load of bullcrap. Dogs do need veges, and garlic does not work. Please do not give out medical advice when you are not qualified to do so. (From someone who actually is qualified to give out animal medical advice). Toxic food for dogs is raisens, grapes, onions, garlic, (anything from that family), macadamia nuts, xylitol and chocolate .
Hey dr, I'm a new subscriber. Love your videos. I have two dogs both husky mixes. We have a rescue who is husky/border collie who may have had some trauma during training sessions with previous owner. He gets very anxious during any form of training or skill building sessions. Ive only used postive reinforcement method with my fur babies. Even though I've tried presenting it differently, making sure I'm in a calm state of kind, or even casual "not training" sessions. He still has "meltdowns". Which include but not limited to, husky singing and crying, light mouthing of the hand, paw slaps, and for the finale... flips on his back while crying/singing. That's all because I've asked him to "shake" 3 times. Denver is definitely a drama queen... well, king. Could you do a video about dog anxiety and breaking thru it? I hate feeling like I'm traumatizing my dog while trying to let the border collie mind (he's super smart) learn.
I do own a small cow! LOL Just kidding, my little sheltie loves to graze on grass. I call her my little bovine...she's so adorable
"You may actually own a small cow..."
Love you guys!

If you don't know what they taste like how can you recommend them 😂. Seriously though, why do people still give their pets garlic 🙄
Why is it important to groom you're pet.
