One for the first aid kit

Just thought I would pass this on.

On our recent forays we have had one or other of the dogs getting the squits. Whilst away last week Willow started, too many windfall apples! We went into town one day to the Pets at Home store, I bought a tube of Logic paste to try, miracles of miracles, it worked just after one dose. Woody started when we got home, something smelly but delicious had been found. 2 doses and he was right as rain.
Both were fit and well other than being loose, otherwise it would have been to the Vets.
Thought this was worth a mention on here as I'm sure that we will all have dogs that can't resist treasure of the stinky sort.
There is also a paste called Pro kolin that works as well as the logic. DEFINATELY one for the first aid kit.

Wish I'd know about it a couple of weeks ago, it might have saved me £92!! :2029:

Gosh Lesley, £92.00, that's really steep.

We find that trips to the beach whilst we are away are a sure fire way of giving the dogs poorly tums. We have a running battle with them, trying to stop the inevitable eating of all things nasty. Last year I bought muzzles for them, not very pretty I admit, but boy do they keep the squits at bay :1945: Most people we have met know why they have them on, a running joke, " oh we know why they have those on". They do save on vet bills :1942:
One of the couples we meet in Cornwall told me about the Prokolin, always keeps it in the first aid kit, so worth a try, not cheap, but not what the vets charge. Just ordered more from our Internet suppliers.
