Ask Shirley for advice in September !

Online Education for dedicated dog lovers !

 

Dear Shirley,

My dog has food allergies and so far I haven't found a brand which agrees with him. My vet bills are sky high ! Can you help with this ? Darlene in Florida

 

Dear Darlene,,

Your chances of finding offending allergy triggers in commerical dog food are next to null. Switch to either homecooked or raw.Good luck to you ! Please keep us updated !  Shirley

Dear Shirley,

you have some advice for me ? My cocker snaps at me every time I try and clean her ears. Is this normal ? Joan in Maine

 

Dear Joan,

I have heard that Cockers tend to be snappy even with their own owners and you just need to muzzle your girl. Perhaps also offer some treats when cleaning her ears !

Dear Shirley,

My neighbor leaves her shepherd in the yard around five in the morning and we wake up to the sound of loud howling almost every day. I really love dogs and don't want to report them to Animal Control. Do you have any suggestions for us ? Thanks ! I also think it is too warm to leave a dog out in the yard at any time of the day and feel very sorry about this state of affairs. Mimi in W. Va.

 

Dear Mimi,

You have got to have a heart to heart talk with your neighbor and get her to tell you her story.  

All the best,

Shirley
