Yippee, ANOTHER BIG dog this week! Niko the Bernese Mountain Dog is with me. He lives with my guest from last week, Myone the Irish Wolfhound – their mom apparently loves us BIG DOGS like my mom does! They had some difficulties after Niko got a rabies shot but things are all better and they are totally cool with each other once again, WOOF! You can read his story below Niko’s mom shares with us…
Strike a pose!
In his Mom Melanie’s words…
I imported Niko when he was 9 weeks old from Hungary. He was actually a gift from my Hungarian friends. He came with one set of shots in 2004. He did not get the rest of his puppy shots but did get a rabies at 6 months and again in January of 2006. He has been on a raw diet most of his short life so far as he was switched in 2005 but was actually raw fed when I got him and I continued half and half with him until I made the complete switch.
Happy in the winter snow
Melanie continued…
I did not notice much of a problem with him until he had that second shot and then he went downhill from there; attacked my Irish Wolfhound, Myone, and shredded him as you saw in the last email pics and became fearful and started having problems with his ears; inner ear infections. Many $$$ spent on him for vet visits, meds, etc with no success. He is slowly recovering with homeopathics and a raw fed diet and no further vaxs. He has not been to a vet in a few years.

and finally…
He is gentle once again and he sleeps with the cats/kittens. ~ Melanie
