  Speaker 2: Okay, let's hear okay, all.
• 0:28
  Speaker 4: Right, okay.
• 0:29
  Speaker 3: Number one is lying about your pets behavior. Now, be honest.
• 0:34
  Speaker 3: I was perfectly honest with doctor Davis when I said
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: that my puppy likes to eat poop. That's embarrassing.
• 0:40
  Speaker 5: Yes, and we can miss important details if you're not
• 0:43
  Speaker 5: honest about it.
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: We're not there to judge. Just tell us what's going on.
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: Absolutely, you know you could have said, though, Gina, I
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: just hedged it a little bit.
• 0:50
  Speaker 4: My puppy, like, my puppy eats poop. She doesn't like it.
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: But anyway can help herself.
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: Also hiding embarrassing things about yourself the vet, like say
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: maybe like they said, here's The quote says, we're not
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: here to get anyone in trouble, but if you have
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: marijuana in the house and you think that your pet
• 1:10
  Speaker 3: may have gotten.
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: A hold of it, we need to know that we do.
• 1:14
  Speaker 5: Yeah, and we're not you know, we're not going to
• 1:16
  Speaker 5: judge you again, and you're not going to call the cops.
• 1:18
  Speaker 5: I've seen cases where if we hadn't gotten that information,
• 1:23
  Speaker 5: a pet could be euthanized because of that, because you
• 1:26
  Speaker 5: can't find any other problems, and they're they're very lethargic,
• 1:29
  Speaker 5: they can be very sick.
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: But if we know that, we can help you so
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: much better.
• 1:33
  Speaker 4: Yep.
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: Mistreating your pet going to the vet can be a
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: stressful experience. And people that yell or reprimand their pet
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: when they're acting up in the vet office.
• 1:45
  Speaker 5: Yep, also a big one. And you know it is
• 1:48
  Speaker 5: stressful dogs cats either way. And don't be afraid to
• 1:52
  Speaker 5: talk about pre visit sedation medication. You know some some
• 1:56
  Speaker 5: people are are against that, but I promise you it
• 2:00
  Speaker 5: makes the visits often that much better and that much
• 2:02
  Speaker 5: less stressful.
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: Expecting to get in and out of the vet quickly.
• 2:08
  Speaker 5: That is entirely dependent on the hospital, what type of visit,
• 2:11
  Speaker 5: and the more you tell us when you make the appointment,
• 2:14
  Speaker 5: the better we can plan for your visit and make
• 2:16
  Speaker 5: it more efficient for sure.
• 2:17
  Speaker 4: So we do have a bunch of calls.
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: So yeah, all right, we can carry on with that.
• 2:22
  Speaker 4: Okay, I'll hold on to the rest of these. Let's
• 2:24
  Speaker 4: go to this is the Hello, missus, d what what
• 2:29
  Speaker 4: kind of animal? What your animals?
• 2:34
  Speaker 6: I have a three and a half year old golden
• 2:37
  Speaker 6: golden doodle. His name is There. Recently, I think in
• 2:42
  Speaker 6: the last three weeks, his upper gum line has gotten
• 2:46
  Speaker 6: severely red. He's still eating normal and stuff like that,
• 2:49
  Speaker 6: but his breath is really really bad. I can't see
• 2:52
  Speaker 6: any like bad teeth or anything like that. He's not
• 2:55
  Speaker 6: complaining or rubbing his face or anything. But I don't
• 2:59
  Speaker 6: know what to do.
• 3:00
  Speaker 4: Thing that's different is a red gum wine.
• 3:02
  Speaker 5: Yeah, And if there's bad breath and you're starting to
• 3:05
  Speaker 5: see red along the gum line, I would definitely want
• 3:08
  Speaker 5: to rule out that we're getting dental disease, specifically gingovitis
• 3:12
  Speaker 5: or periodental disease. So the teeth don't have to look
• 3:16
  Speaker 5: unhealthy to have dental disease because a lot of that
• 3:19
  Speaker 5: happens under the gum line. So if you've never been
• 3:22
  Speaker 5: in for you know, an oral exam and a dental
• 3:24
  Speaker 5: cleaning under anesthesia, that would be a great next step.
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: It's really a sad day when you have to fit
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: your dog with dentures, So don't don't let that happen.
• 3:34
  Speaker 5: Those teeth healthy, and and and and once a year
• 3:36
  Speaker 5: you should be getting in for a.
• 3:38
  Speaker 4: Dental you know. In my opinion, Thanks missus.
• 3:40
  Speaker 6: D There you go, great, thank you, thank you.
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: All right, let's go to Sarah. Hello, Sarah, Hi, Sarah.
• 3:46
  Speaker 4: What's your kids? What's your kiddy's name?
• 3:50
  Speaker 7: Mochi muchI?
• 3:51
  Speaker 4: Okay, okay, what's the question.
• 3:55
  Speaker 8: So she's she's about six months old now. But about
• 3:58
  Speaker 8: a month ago she had had her first round of
• 4:01
  Speaker 8: the three shot or whatever for the kiddies, and he
• 4:05
  Speaker 8: was just flying with that. Then right before I got
• 4:07
  Speaker 8: her second booster, she started to get kind of running
• 4:11
  Speaker 8: eyes and they said, oh no, that that should be okay.
• 4:13
  Speaker 8: She doesn't seem too sick. And then she got her
• 4:15
  Speaker 8: step from booster and she was just down like she
• 4:19
  Speaker 8: refused to eat for days. Her eyes are super runny.
• 4:23
  Speaker 8: She finally started to act more like a kitten now,
• 4:27
  Speaker 8: and I'm really worried about that next final shot if
• 4:31
  Speaker 8: if something else is going on, if there's a really
• 4:33
  Speaker 8: bad allergy or don't.
• 4:36
  Speaker 5: Know, But yeah, no, that's timing with vaccines can be
• 4:40
  Speaker 5: really important for that because you know, we're trying to
• 4:43
  Speaker 5: prevent certain types of viral infections, and cats are notorious
• 4:47
  Speaker 5: for those upper respiratory infections, so the runny eyes sometimes
• 4:51
  Speaker 5: goopy eyes, and the runny nose or snotty nose and
• 4:55
  Speaker 5: if you give vaccines, so we're trying to prevent those diseases,
• 4:58
  Speaker 5: but cats are often already exposed to things like feline herpes,
• 5:01
  Speaker 5: and so if they're kind of sick or a little
• 5:04
  Speaker 5: bit off and they get a vaccine, it's more of
• 5:06
  Speaker 5: a hit to their immune system to deal with that.
• 5:09
  Speaker 5: But not saying that that's wrong either, but it may
• 5:12
  Speaker 5: just take them longer to come through that. So I
• 5:14
  Speaker 5: think I wouldn't be afraid to finish your booster series
• 5:17
  Speaker 5: because that is important to do that for sure. But
• 5:20
  Speaker 5: you know, just let your vet know if they're a
• 5:22
  Speaker 5: little bit off coming into it, maybe they pause and
• 5:25
  Speaker 5: do a little bit of therapy for a week before
• 5:27
  Speaker 5: giving the vaccines and just see if that helps improve that.
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: But don't be afraid of vaccines for sure.
• 5:32
  Speaker 4: All right, Sarah, thanks for calling, Thank you bye, Let's
• 5:36
  Speaker 4: go to it, says sin I, Sin.
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: Hi?
• 5:41
  Speaker 4: Is that correct? Sin?
• 5:44
  Speaker 9: Yeah?
• 5:45
  Speaker 4: Okay, you have a dog. What's the dog's name?
• 5:48
  Speaker 6: His name is Maverick.
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: All right, all right, what's the problem here.
• 5:54
  Speaker 9: He's just been.
• 5:55
  Speaker 7: Getting really old, and I think he's.
• 5:58
  Speaker 9: Just been pooping a lot, like randomly, and he's never
• 6:01
  Speaker 9: really had this problem.
• 6:02
  Speaker 4: Grandpa did that too.
• 6:07
  Speaker 7: I was just wondering, could him being old have any
• 6:12
  Speaker 7: tie ins with this.
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: Possibly?
• 6:15
  Speaker 5: You know, for older pets, I think it's really important
• 6:18
  Speaker 5: to get a good thorough set of senior blood work
• 6:22
  Speaker 5: so we can make sure that all the organs are
• 6:24
  Speaker 5: functioning fine and things are going well, because digestibility, just
• 6:28
  Speaker 5: like in US, it does change as you get older.
• 6:30
  Speaker 5: But also remember like if you've had any change to
• 6:33
  Speaker 5: diet or any changes to other things, that can also
• 6:36
  Speaker 5: contribute to that, because digestibility is different for different foods.
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: And things like that.
• 6:41
  Speaker 5: But an older dog, I would want to make sure
• 6:42
  Speaker 5: there's no other problems, no parasites, no blood work abnormalities,
• 6:46
  Speaker 5: and then you can kind of work with with your
• 6:48
  Speaker 5: vet about what steps to take after.
• 6:50
  Speaker 4: That, okay, right, all right?
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, and you don't want to keep you know,
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: you don't want to keep cleaning up after your dogs.
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, anyway to fix that is what we would
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: shoot for.
• 7:00
  Speaker 4: A thank you. Thanks. Let's get to Lenna. Glenna is here,
• 7:07
  Speaker 4: Hi Glenna.
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: What's your what's your animal's name and what species?
• 7:15
  Speaker 10: I have two dogs. Roxy is a Jack Russell Terrier
• 7:20
  Speaker 10: dos and mix, and Ellie is a Chinese Golden Puff
• 7:24
  Speaker 10: Chiuala mix. Yeah. I called a couple of weeks ago
• 7:30
  Speaker 10: and asked about Roxy is almost blind, Ellie is deaf.
• 7:36
  Speaker 10: Ellie would step behind Roxy and start her and she'd
• 7:39
  Speaker 10: attack her. And doctor Davis. Doctor Davis, you suggested that
• 7:44
  Speaker 10: I put bells on Ellie and Bill you asked me
• 7:47
  Speaker 10: to call back and tell you how that went.
• 7:48
  Speaker 9: Yeah, And being a good.
• 7:51
  Speaker 10: Self respecting crafter, I had some bells in my house.
• 7:54
  Speaker 10: So of course I'm on her collar. And my nephew said, oh,
• 7:59
  Speaker 10: that's in a dry belly nuts. I said, no, she
• 8:01
  Speaker 10: can't hear it. Roxy, that Roxy can't and so it
• 8:07
  Speaker 10: has helped. There's we still have a little bit a
• 8:10
  Speaker 10: little incident once in a while, but it has definitely
• 8:13
  Speaker 10: helped and it was a great suggest. I appreciate it.
• 8:15
  Speaker 11: Well.
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: Glad to hear that. Yeah, that's awesome.
• 8:17
  Speaker 4: Good to hear, Glenna. Thank you for calling back, all right?
• 8:19
  Speaker 4: Thank you? Yeah, we like updates, updates. Anthony is here,
• 8:24
  Speaker 4: Hi Anthony, Hi Anthony, guys. Good, Yeah, you've got a
• 8:29
  Speaker 4: what a what a pitbull? Huh? And tell us what
• 8:33
  Speaker 4: the dog dog's name and what it is?
• 8:36
  Speaker 11: Her name is.
• 8:37
  Speaker 12: Her name is Micah. She's one hundred percent Stafford Sire Terrier.
• 8:42
  Speaker 12: I got her when I was seventeen and she's fourteen
• 8:45
  Speaker 12: years old.
• 8:45
  Speaker 6: Bow.
• 8:46
  Speaker 12: She's still hyper and still still uh active, but the
• 8:50
  Speaker 12: last few days she's been wheezing real bad. And I
• 8:53
  Speaker 12: took her into the ved a few months ago, and
• 8:56
  Speaker 12: she has a bunch of tumors and a vet told
• 8:58
  Speaker 12: thank you, probably could cause her would cause her more
• 9:00
  Speaker 12: pain to get surgery done rather than doing that. So
• 9:04
  Speaker 12: I don't know if maybe, like was there a chance
• 9:06
  Speaker 12: or possibly tuners could have grown into like the lungs
• 9:09
  Speaker 12: or something like that to cause her to wheeze. I
• 9:11
  Speaker 12: just don't know what's causing the weeze, and she doesn't
• 9:14
  Speaker 12: seem like she's in any pain, so I don't I'm
• 9:16
  Speaker 12: just curious to see what the doctor says.
• 9:18
  Speaker 5: Okay, yeah, So, I mean there are certain types of
• 9:22
  Speaker 5: tumors and cancers that can start, especially certain types of
• 9:26
  Speaker 5: bone cancers can start and the limbs and then can
• 9:29
  Speaker 5: end up in the lungs and other types of organs
• 9:31
  Speaker 5: like the liver. So but it also may be unrelated.
• 9:35
  Speaker 5: I mean, older dogs too are kind of like us.
• 9:37
  Speaker 5: They're a little more susceptible to getting respiratory disease and
• 9:41
  Speaker 5: even pneumonia sometimes, And so if there's wheezing, the next
• 9:45
  Speaker 5: steps would be taken X rays of the heart and
• 9:48
  Speaker 5: lungs and really assessing that and then a good picture
• 9:51
  Speaker 5: besides that, because not all cancers spread like that. In fact,
• 9:54
  Speaker 5: most most don't accept the really aggressive kind. So maybe
• 9:58
  Speaker 5: it's not dealing with that, but maybe anemonia or some
• 10:00
  Speaker 5: other lung thing going on.
• 10:03
  Speaker 12: Yeah, all of the tumors came back benign, so when
• 10:07
  Speaker 12: I got the blood work back, so I don't know
• 10:09
  Speaker 12: if she didn't have cancer or anything. And once she
• 10:12
  Speaker 12: gets up and going, she runs around and she's super
• 10:15
  Speaker 12: playful and happy, good she's around kids and family. So
• 10:19
  Speaker 12: I'm just curious what it could be. Pneumonia?
• 10:23
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I think X rays and just another exam, the
• 10:25
  Speaker 5: more recent examine.
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: X rays is a good place to start, all right,
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: Thanks Anthony, see you later, Thank you. Okay, let's go
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: to uh Kobe Kobe, Helloby?
• 10:40
  Speaker 4: Yes, what you got a dog? What's the dog's name?
• 10:45
  Speaker 11: Her name is?
• 10:47
  Speaker 8: Yeah?
• 10:48
  Speaker 4: Yeah, what's your question?
• 10:51
  Speaker 7: The question is, so we got her from the Humane
• 10:55
  Speaker 7: Society a couple of weeks ago, and when they sent
• 10:59
  Speaker 7: her to she had that, and I was just wondering
• 11:08
  Speaker 7: if I decided to make her off of that, how would.
• 11:11
  Speaker 9: I go about it?
• 11:13
  Speaker 4: Can you?
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: Can you say?
• 11:14
  Speaker 5: Again?
• 11:14
  Speaker 4: What? Hang on? Are you on a speakerphone? Or what's
• 11:18
  Speaker 4: going on here? Yeah, we're having a hard time hearing you.
• 11:21
  Speaker 7: Hold on.
• 11:22
  Speaker 4: It's very noisy. Hell yeah, hell yeah yeah?
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: What what are you on again? I couldn't quite hear? Yeah,
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: what was the what was what was the medication?
• 11:33
  Speaker 13: She's on.
• 11:36
  Speaker 4: About about taking her off of it?
• 11:38
  Speaker 5: Yeah, a lot of times we're using that for yeah,
• 11:42
  Speaker 5: like for for fear or just to help with some
• 11:45
  Speaker 5: mild sedatives, especially making a transition to a new home
• 11:48
  Speaker 5: and a new place. But that's a drug, it is, Okay,
• 11:51
  Speaker 5: to stop giving that and just kind of see, if
• 11:54
  Speaker 5: you know, if they do fine without having it, or
• 11:57
  Speaker 5: you can kind of slowly tape her off of it.
• 11:59
  Speaker 5: But yeah, I think if things are settling in and
• 12:01
  Speaker 5: the dog's doing okay behaviorally, you're probably okay to start
• 12:04
  Speaker 5: kind of weaning off of that and just see how
• 12:06
  Speaker 5: it goes, all.
• 12:06
  Speaker 4: Right, Kobe, thanks for calling. Okay, all right, people do
• 12:12
  Speaker 4: not use speakerphone. When Katie tells you not to use
• 12:16
  Speaker 4: a speakerphone, she means it. That's the reason she's not
• 12:19
  Speaker 4: just saying.
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: Words, right, all right, Okay, and next time we're going
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: to hang up on you.
• 12:24
  Speaker 4: All right, I'm sorry. Let's see Eric is here. Hello Eric, Hi.
• 12:28
  Speaker 11: Eric, Good morning lords.
• 12:30
  Speaker 4: How you doing good?
• 12:31
  Speaker 11: Eric?
• 12:32
  Speaker 4: You have a French bulldog. What's the dog's name? Her
• 12:36
  Speaker 4: name is Mala, and what's the question?
• 12:38
  Speaker 11: M A l A. The question is, so we didn't
• 12:43
  Speaker 11: get her fixed when she was younger. She's about two
• 12:46
  Speaker 11: and a half now and she's in the middle of
• 12:49
  Speaker 11: a heat cycle. But I've heard about, uh, some disease
• 12:53
  Speaker 11: they can acquire and it had something to do with this. Hi, Hirometrie.
• 12:58
  Speaker 12: I'm not sure.
• 12:59
  Speaker 11: I'm doctor Davis probably knows, but I'm concerned about it.
• 13:02
  Speaker 11: And my girlfriend is kind of dismissing me. Like all dogs,
• 13:06
  Speaker 11: but our twelve year old pug, Bumble is on her
• 13:09
  Speaker 11: last leg, and I'm scared about losing this one for
• 13:13
  Speaker 11: that one.
• 13:13
  Speaker 4: All right, let's prepare for this one. Let's love. Doctor
• 13:16
  Speaker 4: Davis respond here.
• 13:17
  Speaker 5: Yeah, and so the condition you're talking about is called
• 13:20
  Speaker 5: a pyometra, So it's it often happens in dogs after
• 13:25
  Speaker 5: they finish their heat cycle. You know, it can be
• 13:28
  Speaker 5: several weeks after they have a heat cycle. But the
• 13:31
  Speaker 5: problem is, yeah, they'll get an infection in their uterus
• 13:34
  Speaker 5: and if it's not noticed or goes on too long
• 13:37
  Speaker 5: before we diagnose it, it can become life threatening and
• 13:40
  Speaker 5: typically it ends up being surgery to fix that, and
• 13:43
  Speaker 5: it's off an emergency surgery to do that. So if
• 13:46
  Speaker 5: you're not breeding your dog, I would recommend after that
• 13:50
  Speaker 5: heat cycle is over, get in and get spade, because
• 13:54
  Speaker 5: you know, when they're in their heat cycle, spades are
• 13:57
  Speaker 5: a little more risky with bleeding issues and things like that.
• 13:59
  Speaker 5: So once it's over, get scheduled and get spaded and
• 14:02
  Speaker 5: then you never have to worry about the piameter ever.
• 14:04
  Speaker 4: Again, all right, Eric, thanks for calling.
• 14:06
  Speaker 11: Thanks, thank you so much, guys.
• 14:07
  Speaker 4: Than by sure Sharati is here.
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: Hello, Hi Sharati. What's what's up with your kiddy? What's
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: your kiddy's name?
• 14:15
  Speaker 13: By the piperier, thanks for letting me listen.
• 14:19
  Speaker 4: By the way, what did what Piper do?
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: So?
• 14:23
  Speaker 13: Piper has been catching many mouths ni for the last
• 14:28
  Speaker 13: several weeks. Yesterday, Yeah, yesterday she actually ate one and
• 14:35
  Speaker 13: I am wondering what I should watch for because it
• 14:38
  Speaker 13: kind of freaked me out.
• 14:40
  Speaker 4: It's kind of crazy. Yeah, did she leave behind the
• 14:44
  Speaker 4: ears and the tail?
• 14:46
  Speaker 13: No, just the rear end.
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 14:49
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 14:49
  Speaker 5: They can be pretty thorough when they're doing that. So
• 14:52
  Speaker 5: eating rodents, your biggest risks for cats is going to
• 14:56
  Speaker 5: be acquiring parasites. So tape worms or other worms are
• 15:00
  Speaker 5: their parasites can be a problem there. So your best
• 15:02
  Speaker 5: defense for that is to get your cat on a
• 15:05
  Speaker 5: monthly parasite control. My favorite one is called Revolution Plus.
• 15:10
  Speaker 5: It's just a it's a liquid you put on kind
• 15:12
  Speaker 5: of the nape of the neck once a month, and
• 15:14
  Speaker 5: that's going to prevent fleas, ticks, heartworms, tape you know,
• 15:18
  Speaker 5: all the worms and then there if they do have
• 15:20
  Speaker 5: a tapeworm. There's there's a different med we have to
• 15:23
  Speaker 5: add into that. So I'm getting a stool sample checked
• 15:25
  Speaker 5: would be your next steps, and then getting on parasite
• 15:27
  Speaker 5: control would be really important.
• 15:29
  Speaker 4: If you have to.
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: Okay, keeps doing that, do get get it under control, right.
• 15:34
  Speaker 13: Thank you very much, Thank you.
• 15:37
  Speaker 4: It's kind of awful to watch them do that. We
• 15:40
  Speaker 4: have time for one more. Caden is here. Hi, Caden, what's.
• 15:43
  Speaker 9: Your good marrine?
• 15:45
  Speaker 4: You have a dog and what's the dog's name?
• 15:48
  Speaker 9: I do have a dog. Her name is Rose and
• 15:50
  Speaker 9: she is a poodle.
• 15:53
  Speaker 4: Question.
• 15:54
  Speaker 9: So the question is she is very picky with her
• 15:57
  Speaker 9: food and when I say I need to make it
• 16:00
  Speaker 9: up every now and then, I almost thrown oll of
• 16:02
  Speaker 9: in there just to give her the little razzle ed
• 16:04
  Speaker 9: as well, if that makes sense. So I'm wondering if
• 16:07
  Speaker 9: there's a method to, you know, maybe persuade her to
• 16:10
  Speaker 9: a certain food that she can stick with and love
• 16:14
  Speaker 9: for a long time, if that makes sense.
• 16:16
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 16:17
  Speaker 5: The dogs, definitely, some dogs and breeds fall into that
• 16:20
  Speaker 5: category where they're just not big eaters or what we expect.
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: Them to be.
• 16:25
  Speaker 5: And at the end of the day, if they're a
• 16:27
  Speaker 5: healthy body condition a healthy body weight, and they're a
• 16:31
  Speaker 5: little bit more picky. I'm not too concerned about that.
• 16:34
  Speaker 5: And the more you switch up food, the more you
• 16:37
  Speaker 5: have the potential to cause vomiting, diarrhea or other gi problems.
• 16:41
  Speaker 5: And so I think just picking a good quality food
• 16:44
  Speaker 5: and sticking with it, and if they have those days
• 16:46
  Speaker 5: where they don't want to eat as much, as long
• 16:48
  Speaker 5: as they're acting fine, I don't worry too much about
• 16:50
  Speaker 5: that unless their health is changing, or they're losing weight,
• 16:53
  Speaker 5: or they'll they'll eventually get hungry, they'll eat it, you know,
• 16:55
  Speaker 5: So just offer something quality and just be consistent.
• 16:58
  Speaker 4: Is it true that you should you know, this was
• 17:01
  Speaker 4: a cat.
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: When you change the food, you shouldn't just change it immediately,
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: but like mix in a little bit of the old
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: food into the new food.
• 17:08
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 17:08
  Speaker 5: Yeah, And honestly, for dogs, I would almost say it's
• 17:11
  Speaker 5: more important because dogs get diarrhea all the time. That's
• 17:14
  Speaker 5: one of the most common things we see dogs for.
• 17:16
  Speaker 5: So anytime you change food, take about at least three
• 17:19
  Speaker 5: to five days and slowly mix in the new food
• 17:22
  Speaker 5: while you're weaning off the old food, and you'll have
• 17:24
  Speaker 5: less chance of having a problem.
• 17:26
  Speaker 4: That way, okay, thanks Kaden. We'll see of course, of course.
• 17:28
  Speaker 9: And hey, I just want to say real quick, I
• 17:30
  Speaker 9: was on hold for a beginny yesterday, and let me
• 17:33
  Speaker 9: tell you, I was feeling very paranormal that day. But
• 17:36
  Speaker 9: I get time, you know, Okay, I'm here.
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: Well I'm going to hang up on you, and that's
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: and you can always call again and try again.
• 17:43
  Speaker 5: Guess we're going to play coming up after these messages
• 17:45
  Speaker 5: in a song.
