Hi All!
I would like to obtain information concerning carting. Stevie is
miraculously 18 mths old and I would like to try some different things with
him. I have a back pack that I put on him when we are out for our many daily
walks, he carries only his water and mine. But he just loves to put on
r not looking for him more the other night. To think that
he spent the whole night and morning, blind and in excruciating pain burdens
me. He was such a comfort to Stevie when Stevie was first home after his
accident. He put up with Stevie carrying him by the scruff of the neck all
over the house and t
I was panicked.
Of course, I had already felt like I had abandoned my son by moving Stevie
and I into our own apartment, but only because my son Trevor did not want to
leave the community that he has known for the last 15 years. But now that I
am living in the city and away from our small village

Hi,
I have heard/seen many dogowners trying this for their dogs. The most of
these dogs have been "problem-dogs" and the most dogs have been hurt of the

I would not recommend them, not for hairy Berners.

Stevie continues to progress, slowly, but I see a difference in his appetite
