| if sue hasnt seen this and you see her online ... please feel free to bump it up so she can add to it  after this weeks expense of the dogs with different ailments  ... i have spent a fortune  and then only to be told that i could of bought exactly the same meds from a chemist instead of forking out a fortune at the vets  so i am wanting to make a little book full of cures medicines and lotions and potions etc for the dogs ... and possibly cat  for example ... the vet gave daisy fucithalmic drops for her eyes ... and then i was told by someone that Brolene from the chemist is exactly the same at a fraction of the price ... last week the vet gave me some tablets for daisys rash and it was piriton.. i already had some in the cupboard liquid form ... although im not sure how much of that i would have to give them  so all your knowledge will be greatly received no matter how small it may be 1nods _________________   ~The dog is a gentleman!

| hibi-scrub a must , use it for cleaning cuts or bathe your dog in it if its got irratations, arrowroot biscuits are good for runs, cold teabags are good for sore eyes, vinegar diluted in water good to clean ears out, frozen peas good for sprains or swollen joints also arnica excellent for helping the body heal after accidents or operations, cornflower or arrowrooot powder good to stop bleeding if nails are cut too short or bleeding , glucouse powder if dogs not eating , _________________ HAPPINESS IS A OBEDIENT DOG , I MISS MY SWEETIE MORE EACH DAY  |

| if you think your dogs got something stuck in its mouth, dry slice of bread, towels warmed on radiator or tumble dryer to put on older dogs or with arthritis in winter months after walks, honey great for coughs ,or to put on a sore with bandage on , honey draws any gunk out, cant think of ought else at the mo , _________________ HAPPINESS IS A OBEDIENT DOG , I MISS MY SWEETIE MORE EACH DAY |
