My Shihtzu is 5.5 months old, apparently he has little bit of itching due to ticks or skin infection. Is it recommended if we can get him 2MM trim. As his hair is too much, we are unable to search ticks properly. Also doctor recommended for the trimming yet I wanted to have a second opinion on the same, as I have heard you shouldn’t trim untill 8 months.

Hi Mehal, anyhow trimmming in pets is recommend after 5-6 months of age. But if there’s matting/skin infection, trimming is advisable if it’s necessary for the trimming. But also consider the cold weathers and keep your pet warm post trimming.

Hi All, is it normal for puppies to feel dull after taking deworming tablet. I gave my puppy the tablet in the morning after his breakfast and he has been sleeping more than usual the entire day plus he just played for 5 mins and got tired. Should I see a vet/is this a cause of concern?

With Coco 🐾 🐾 at my side and coffee thoughts ☕️, I marveled, "How does he brim with such zest?" His excitement soared as we strolled, his tail spinning like chopper blades, and he danced joyously between flower pots. I wondered, "How does he find boundless bliss in the familiar?" For me, the world dulled, curiosity fading like the waning moon. Trees 🌳 were just trees, and nature's dance escaped notice. Familiar faces blurred into routine's haze. But in Coco's world, each day held a grand adventure, an enigma to unravel. Every being received an effervescent greeting, as if kindred stars shared their souls. No worries for tomorrow; he embraced the present, exploring every nook, hoping for squirrel acrobatics from lofty trees. So, I sought his whimsical wisdom, reigniting my dormant wonder. To embrace the mundane's enigmatic charm. To see the universe in a speck, eternity in a fleeting moment. In Coco's realm, everyday things dance like cosmic wonders, curiosity sparkles like dew's stardust. 🌠✨

Can dogs only eat vegetarian food? What is the impact of the same? Once introduced to chicken/rice combinations do they avoid/dislike vegetarian food?
