Flea Medication

Here we are in November, and the fleas are still around!!! I put some frontline plus on my dogs as usual but this time just after having it only one week, the fleas were back! I was livid, of course, as this flea medication isn't cheap, especially if you are a more-than-one-dog owner. I called up the lady at the vet shop inside of the petsmart and asked her if there were anything new. She said Vectra. I went and purchased this for my babies and have now applied it. I am going to keep you updated as to see if it's working or not. Actually, she said there was a money-back guarantee....that's even better. This is NOT for cats though.

Chis Love Sunbathing

Summer comes and summer goes, and another year is going to come to a close pretty fast. I feel like life is passing by really quickly. My chihuahuas remain the same, adorable, loving sweethearts that they always have been. I have noticed how they love laying in a spot of sunlight that comes in when I have the door open. If you have chis that love to do that as well, keep a close eye on them because they can get dehydrated easily and start panting furiously. I have to watch their time in the sun and close my door if they stay there too long. Make sure that your chis always have available water to them.

Enjoying a Cool Breeze--Wordless Wednesdays

Female Chis

My "Prissy" dog has been too funny lately. She went into heat, poor girl, and since we have a male dog here (Shorty) it hasn't been easy for the girl. She hasn't had ANY interest in being with Shorty and I watched one day as he was starting to bother her.....she bit him, chased him around the room and bit him again. He was racing around trying to get away from her. I joked with my family that Shorty shouldn't have bothered my dog so much but it's just dog nature. Now that she is off of her heat period, things have pretty much gone back to normal. How does your female dog react when in heat?
