The only thoughts that come to mind when you mention fits, are epilepsy and hypoglycemia (This is by no means meant to be medical advice). Have you considered approaching another veterinarian for a second opinion? Hopefully some of our readers might be able to offer some insight. We would like to extend our heartfelt sympathy to you and your family and hope your puppy survives this terrible ordeal.

My wife and I will usually use vaseline intensive care to keep them moisturized and if any cracking does occur neosporin cream works well to keep the cracks from getting bad.

They most certainly do discipline puppies in just this way, sometimes giving the appearance of frighteningly violent correction. The puppy squeals, but only its' pride is injured.

]]> Comment on Dog Breeding - What Is It? by John Laraby http://www.dogandmaster.com/DogBlog/2006/12/09/dog-breeding-what-is-it/#comment-4 John Laraby Sat, 06 Jan 2007 17:46:24 +0000 http://www.dogandmaster.com/DogBlog/2006/12/09/dog-breeding-what-is-it/#comment-4 Hi Barbera - Here are some more points to consider. If you are interested in breeding your "Staffie" the best sire to look for is one with a good temperment. Do not breed only for beauty and ignore other flaws the other dog may have. A female dog should be 2 years of age or older before she is bred. Breeding a younger animal would be like a 13 year old child having a baby. NEVER breed an animal with one of its siblings. Like any pregnant female, your dog should be seen regularly by a veterinarian during the gestation period. To insure you are breeding "papered" puppies, only select another animal with papered lineage. <a href="http://www.dogandmaster.com" rel="nofollow">DogandMaster.com</a> Hi Barbera - Here are some more points to consider.
