Jalila is losing weight and seems to be sound. She's moving around a lot on her own and I'm wondering when I can start exercising her (walks, groundwork) Her feet are not as bad a shiraz's but we need

For such a "convenience" it sure does up the cost to the consumer by having to be administered by a vet still. Once a month vet calls? No thanks, there's no way I could afford that. I'd like to

Thanks Sherry for your view. I didn't go to the website, thank you for requesting more info. IF there actually *is* more info that they send you, would you mind sharing? They really are going full

I am making progress with Shiraz. She is losing weight and her posture is improving. The photos of her feet show some progress. She was trimmed on March 26th. I uploaded photos to the photo album in
