Hi doctor, my male shihtzu 1.5 years old. He has many food irregularities. i am giving him rice along with chicken gravy. somedays he will complete the whole quantity and some days he won't even touch. I am changing gravy flavours as i thought he might be bored with same flavour but it's the same situation repeating. is it normal and can you suggest anything for this?

It is normal in the shihtzu pets, u can try giving him boiled vegetables and fruits and also to increase his appetite u can give hepamust syrup 3ml twice daily 30 min before food

I used to give him the syrup but then he started vomiting daily when i gave it. So i stopped it and boiled vegetables he is not eating. He's eating only raw vegetables .

If he vomits after giving syrup then no need to give that

Okay Doctor. And he used to have many skin issues. Then i gave him bravecto on my friend's suggestion. The night i gave him the tablet he was continuously panting but from next day he had no issues. Can I continue giving him the tablet once every 3 months?

No need to give that tablet if there are no ticks on his body

If he has these issues with the tablet to control ticks u can use spot-on and shampoo

Hey, I’m going to be out of town in the month of feb. Any good dog boardings, etc that I can leave my doggo for 5 days that would take proper care?

hey! so i rescued a pup about a month ago (she's about 3 months old right now) and she needs to be potty trained. since none of us are usually around her at all times because we're busy with work, we are unable to train her the traditional way. Is there a way where she can be trained without someone having to keep an eye in her throughout the day? please do let me know, as it's become quite a big task to constantly clean up :(
