Thanks to each of you. Lia and I are fine now. We just came home from the holistic vet check-up and are making great progress. I think her 'heat' came at a good time - we need to just stay home and relax with each other so we can heal from all we have been through. Once Lia's hormones have settled she will be spayed. She's amazing and we are a perfect match. And although she is part pyr, we have managed to cut the barking out almost completely and effortlessly. When she needs to tell me something, she now comes right over to me and talks in a funny muffled barkish language that's easy on the ears. What a gentle love!!!!!
Are the whitening wipes in places like Petsmart? Are those the same as the eye wipes for white dogs? Is there a name brand that you can recommend? I take it that the feminine hygiene wipes are for humans and can be found in a drugstore? Do you think wiping with a peroxide/water mixture would be just as safe and effective?
Alex, thanks for cracking me up with your descriptive "Naja's girly bits" . What a hoot!!!
If anyone wants to send me a PM, please put your email address in the PM if you want me to reply. I can receive PMs but for some reason I'm unable to send them.....
Thanks for the welcome back, it means a lot to me......
