Well Tara now constantly in the kitchen asking for food, she hardly leaves the kitchen atm... we think it might be worms and she hasn't had a pill for a while. Shall be taking her to vets to get booster stuff and pill down her.
Just thought I mention it as you all know how to look after dogs, so you might have some tips. _________________ Quoting Jack: you know me - a complete hopeless case & Sadly - and mark it in your diaries folks as you won't see this happen often - but <gulp> I HAVE to agree with Dave on this.

Anna - how dare you?
I have a beautiful big white Persian and the most adorable looking black and white Persian (he gets called my Teddy Bear man cos he looks soooo like one! )
GORGEOUS kittens in the picture on the chair!
And Dave.....how old is Tara? All mine have healthy appetites but never constantly scrounge, in fact rarely - the only time I have had the cats (past tense) do this is when they got poorly. If Tara is an old girl I'd seriously get her kidney functions tested - especially if she is drinking a lot more water and/or being sick a lot - if not then the most likely answer is worms & greed. Hope I don't worry you but I wouldn't feel right if I didn't pass that info on. _________________ Staffies are my life! Visit us at www.staffies.co.uk |

Is she drinking a lot more than she used to? Is she sick a fair bit? Has she started to wee a lot & not necessarily be particular where? _________________ Staffies are my life! Visit us at www.staffies.co.uk |

Then I think it is most likely to be worms and/or greed - mention it to your vet though just in case - probably just me being overcautious having suffered 2 recent losses to this very thing _________________ Staffies are my life! Visit us at www.staffies.co.uk |
