Hallelujah!Gavin is back to being a sheltie. he is ASKING for his dinner and watching me like a hawk whenever I go in the kitchen. I am still waiting for his first poop. There is a teensy amount of mushy diarrhea in the yard from last night, but nothing else. He also followed me into my bedroom (and bathroom) when I took a shower, which means he is feeling pretty good.



Ahhh yes, the extra piece of food trick. I used to do that with Riley, forgot about that oneso far we are at 4 meals a day, some chicken and hills I/D.
soon I will start adding in kibble in place of chicken.
But I did learn that he wont spit out his pills if I shove chicken in the tip of his mouth right after the pill.
...it worked (almost) every time! I’d show him the second piece before giving him the first and he’d gobble up the first not even noticing the pill. Good thinking! I’d say a hungry Sheltie is a good thing in this case!
