"Bad Bones Are Bad"

No where in my "stuff" will you find a bone-recommendation that supports or endorses PORK bones and there's a VERY good reason - the walls are SO thin and these bones shatter easily. Not 'splintering' like chicken bones.

You can cut yourself cleaning up these species of bones.

Don't even ACCIDENTALLY give Pork bones to your dog. There's just no "kind" of bone that's good for dogs to chew, at least not compared to BEEF bones.

I wasn't paying attention and I bought what looked like a small beef femur. didn't read a damn thing. And then I noticed Ajax had half finished the bone in an hour. That's not possible with the same bone, FROM A COW.

And in cleaning up the mess, I 'stuck' myself with shards. And I held my breath waiting for Ajax to poop anything but splinters and blood.

He's okay.

BE CAREFUL!!! #recbones #bonesdoc

Oxyfresh has been around a VERY long time and still hasn't been surpassed. I love the water additive. I recommend it's made fresh daily with distilled water, and for bad mouths - double strength. Always safe. this will NOT dissolve tartar but it will kill germs, reduce pus and infection and keep teeth from getting "bad" if they're not already. Kit includes gel and brushes.

Oxyfresh complete dental kit.

BABYLTRL Dog Cone Collar for After Surgery, Soft Pet Recovery Collar for Dogs and Cats, Adjustable Cone Collar Protective Collar for Small Medium Large Dogs Wound Healing

Anymore these days companies are NOT making cones that are long enough to protect feet, OR stop head shaking. You really just need a cone. And this is the most important part - YOU HAVE TO BE ABLE TO FIX IT TO THE COLLAR because NO CONE is tight enough to resist a back foot pushing on it. And they'll do it! (Buy The Right One on Amazon)

Something else I found for my dog "Ajax" that's cool:

Sporn Dog Halter STOPS "pulling and tugging" NOW. (Link)

This is what I use now, with my dog Ajax. I used to use the Gentle Leader, but I didn't like including his face in the thing. Now, this just goes around his chest and he DOES NOT PULL ANY MORE. It's great! Amazon.com has it.

Labra Dog Canine K9 Knee Stifle Brace Wrap Metal Hinged Flexible Support Treat ACL CCL Luxating Patella Cruciate Ligament Sprain Strain Tear Injuries

I couldn't get behind these until this one came out. It has a strap that keeps the thing from sliding down. THAT strap has a strap that keeps the thing from rolling down off the dog's rump. And the whole thing does NOT wrap around his weiner area (which would have been fine for a female dog of course) so this one has THREE key engineering points.

Buy the proper knee brace and put it on tight!
