I still got one pack of Orijen I got from WP. I will have to open soon and mix with my Eaglepack.

When I take out Casper's food bowl, he will do that tongue action, slurrp. Then he will wait for me to prepare. Once I set it down on the ground, he will pounce onto it.

Last week, I was still having trouble with him being picky suddenly but now, he finishes his food within 5 - 10 minutes. That take up the bowl after 30 min he dont eat and let him starve tactic, works really well.

I have fed him Nutri Source and Eaglepack. Next in line is Orijen.

thanks. will look for Orijen.

At this moment, I'm mixing milk with dog food. She drinks all the milk and leave behind the dog food biscuits even tho it's already soft.

If Orijen doesn't works then I would have to take away her food after 10 minutes. Cruel to be kind.  flex.gif

You can get ORijen from White Palace. I bought from him too! I havent open my packet yet so I dont know if it would work for you.

Take up his bowl after 30 minutes he didnt eat. My dog has the same problem last week and this week, he's all well behaved now. Finish his food in 5 min each meal!

My vet told me that after final vaccination, can feed our furkid heartgard every month so I feed every month on the 5th. After 1 year supply finishes, just take the yearly jab.

Yes, when dogs are bitten by mosquitoes,worms will travel and grow at the heart or stomach. There are many types of worms but generally one in the heart and another is the stomach.

The heartgard is for heart protection. Also the yearly vaccination.

The medicine for stomach worms are usualy a orange color liquid, also available in pills. If your doggy has worm in the stomach, he will lose appetite and stomach will be bloated. You should be able to see tiny white things in his poo. But if u suspect this is the case, please contact ur vet immediately.

The vet should be able to tell u result whether got stomach worm or not in ten minutes. I seen them work, termometer put in the doggy backside, take out and then put on a rectangular plastic, then drip some solution on it and let it determine (dont know how but they will tell whether got or not)

Oh.. if giv the heartguard monthly then no need to buy deworm tablet for the dog already isit?

as for the yearly heartguard do i still need to deworm the dog everymth?

Heartgard is for the heart. Dewormer is for the stomach, which is advised to be given only once every 3 months, not every month!

Better be safe than sorry lor. Dewormer cheap cheap only ma.
