Only one way to learn is ask. Now you have your answer. Vets are real expensive anymore. And it is hard to get medications anymore that you used to get at drug store. My wife has a shitzu mix, came from a dog task force siesure. Sofie was very abused missing a foot and starved covered in fleas ect. She is a well loved now and would not even recognize her now except that chopped off back foot. A really nice pet for my wife.

Take care Hillbilly, Jeff

Yes she is a tough old girl. Would have liked to have went to Marshal last night but had a infection so try it next month. To darn cold anyway for this old man. Coyotes will be getting mean here soon and everything will be hungry cause of the snow.

A buggy would be right up your alley,tell 'em your Amish now & you might cut your taxes. Gut snares are illegal as far as I know in Illinois.

right now snares can only be set 3/4 submerged under water..they are trying to get snares legalize to be set on land but for now.they are not legal on land.the only trapping season that is in ,is late beaver and muskrat..and you can only trap them with the killer traps..no foot hold traps...hope your buddies dog is ok....

My mother-in-law was hard on lawnmowers also,pappy-in-law use to cuss a blue streak when she'd wipe one out,told him to put a brush guard on the front but he said she'd knock the house off the foundation if he did that.
