Re: Hypothermia > False Pregnancy > Mammamry Gland Removal > Lymphedema?
The vet came over this morning after she struggled last night. Char went peacefully while we laid in bed together. Thanks everyone!

Few weeks after I took Char skiing with me, 30 minutes into the day she stopped walking. Started panting really hard through her nose and would not breathe through her mouth. I had to carr...

Re: Co-Worker got a GSP with a tail?
thanks team. Appreciate the feedback.
I wonder on the dew claws, I wasn't paying attention. But just seems weird all around, however I guess some people breed these dogs to make a buck. I just pray he is able to grow up fast (the owner) that is.

Not clear on what your question is...is it the quivering that bothers you, or that you feel pressure from the dog to do something?
