On serious dog health issues, it is best to consult with your vet.Here is an article from UC Davis on parvo. Here is an article from the ASPCA.

Hi, Today with parvovirus we need to know how to clean the dog’s paws. Please respond. Does antibiotic soap dry his paws ? What do we use after a walk outside like at a park where there are other dogs ? Thanks ! Mrs Frank Marando

I don’t think that would be an issue with most three legged dogs. However, it is best to check with the people from the shelter to see if she has any special needs.

I was thinking a bout adopting a three legged dog from the shelter. One of her BACK legs is missing. I was wondering do you think she’ll be able to use the bathroom okay outside?

Hey Alex, Thanks for letting me know.

It is difficult to tell sometimes which functionality people find useful so I rely on all of you to give me feedback.

I have added back the month-by-month links. Please let me know if there are more things you would like taken out, added, or anything at all relating to the new design.

I am trying to make it better so all comments are greatly appreciated Thanks!

We got a special Dremel for dog nails, and it’s as you descibed — too weak. It would stop if we put too much pressure on it. I can see the quick in Lupin’s nails, so I’ve never hit them or hurt him from clipping.

Also I was wondering — WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR PAGE?!
I can’t find anything on here. There’s only the categories, no month-by-month like before, and I had to search to even find this. (which I didn’t know existed until I found it)
I like the new layout and everything but not being able to find anything is going to get annoying! D:

lol – Yeah Shania is always rolling over on her back. She quickly figured out that she gets more attention and food when she does that

Also I would really go with the cordless Dremel. The Peticure has gotten some not so good reviews on Amazon. In particular, the primary complaints are that 1) It is not powerful enough and 2) It is not well-built and the grinder bands slip off, etc. etc.

I am very happy with the cordless Dremel that I have, although, with a larger dog, a larger grinder may be more effective.

The Peticure(tm) device advertised on TV for something like $30 looks like it does a great job of grinding down nails. For people without a Dremel like the one in your picture it looks like a good way to go.

P.S. I was surprised you included an alpha-roll picture
