  1. Over 30 states have strict liability laws, where you are responsible for a dog bite, period.  Most others have the 1-bite rule and a few have some hybrid. 

     

    I can't imagine anywhere that does nothing about it until the third bite.  An owner that kept a dog after bite 1 is very irresponsible. 

     

    I think your last statement is very harsh.

  2. My dog loves Fromm too.  I think I would try different flavors to find one your dog likes.  Fromm food has an excellent reputation and no recalls.  My dog eats Surf and Turf, but her favorite is Salmon Tunalini.  We buy the Salmon food and give it to her as a treat.  She absolutely loves it. I've thought about switching and letting the Salmon Tunalini be her regular kibble, but I hate to lose it as a treat.  I do dress her regular kibble up with a few treats, an egg or some yogurt.

  3. I would definitely look at all three houses again.  We moved about a year ago and we revisited a few of our favorites before deciding.  The second visit could make all the difference.  We really spend some time on our second visit and it made a difference.

  4. My oldest daughter was scared to death of bugs.  She still really hates them.  One night, she woke up and there was a bug in her room.  She was hysterically crying.  I got the bug out, but she still wouldn't go to sleep.  Out of desperation, I grabbed the Lysol and sprayed it in her room.  I told her it was bug spray.  We had to spray her room for about a month afterwards, but it worked like a charm!!  Sometimes you just have to get creative!

  5. I'm sorry I missed the post about the the concern for her heart.  I hope you get some answers soon.  In that case, I would take her to the doctor, ER or an urgent care clinic if she has breathing problems before her appointment.  Praying she feels better and you get answers.

  6. I have asthma and one of my daughters does too.  If she is struggling to breathe, I would let her use your inhaler.  It might help and if it doesn't it shouldn't hurt her.  I understand about the whole hygiene thing, but struggling to breathe is a bigger issue than any germs you and her might share.  Struggling to breathe can cause you to panic which will make it even harder to breathe.  I think your pediatrician sounds way off base.  If I had been told that about my daughter, I probably would have been looking for another pediatrician.  I hope you get a good allergist who can help you.

  7. My dog's blood tests were fine too.  His first seizure was a big one so there wasn't really any doubt what we were dealing with.  Good look getting a video of her and good luck finding out what is wrong.  Our dog was a little off after a big seizure, but otherwise he always seemed fine too.  He lived for several years with seizures so be encouraged that if it is seizure activity, it can be treated.  We actually didn't treat my dog at first.  We waited until it was affecting his quality of life.  Having lived with a very beloved pet who had several chronic health conditions, I understand what you are going through.  It can be incredibly frustrating and upsetting.  Hugs to you and your fur baby!

  8. We moved last year to a larger house.  I find it takes more time to get it really clean.  However, it stays neat and tidy most of the time because we have space for the way we live.  I really hate having 3 bathtubs though.  Most of the time the kids end up using our bathroom anyway so two of them are giant dust collectors.
