BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE
Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

Little late to the party, but we stopped using flea/tick meds several years ago when we realized our Lab was allergic to Frontline.
She developed a dry skin/dandruff condition when she was six months old. We tried everything including vet visits and all the expensive dog food brands to clear it up, but nothing worked. We finally realized it was the Frontline when we switched to another brand of flea/tick control and it cleared up immediately. We decided to try not using any meds after that batch was used up and we've found maybe 1-2 ticks on the dogs since then... honestly, about the same amount we found on them when we were using the Frontline. Our dogs are either inside or on our deck, so YMMV.

How's your pup doing, Jayson?

She's been on antibiotics since Friday and her symptoms have improved. She isn't stumbling/falling as often and her appetite is getting back to normal. She's still holding her head to the left and seems a little off-balance, but it's a noticeable difference from when everything started last Thursday. Hoping she continues to improve.
