Hi everyone, it's been forever and a day since I've posted on here. So, Bella, my 10/11 year old girl has recently had both a spur on her lower jaw and points in her check teeth. Two separate visits, the first caught the spur. She has only been eating critical care since early November...

oh no! Tara, I am so, so sorry. My heart is broken for you.

rest well Boing.

I think we need more Stabler. Or, maybe I just need more Stabler? RRooowrr!

I heart Olivia, she does make some odd faces at times though. YOU are a nut!

omg, Stacie. I can't even imagine the emotional roller coaster - I am so sorry. I'm glad he was with you, though, and not still in the pet store or with an inexperienced chin owner. I'm sorry he couldn't be with you longer... Sleep well little Harley.

sounds like the scent gland - that's how they recognize each other, and often they will get tumors there in their older age. I had only girl gerblets, and none of mine ever got the tumors there, however. this site is pretty informative http://gerbilforum.proboards.com/index.cgi

My Kiwi gets boogers all the time, only in her left nostril. I think she has mild allergies, in addition she is very sniffy - she sniffs everything and for much longer than Bella ever does. I think she may be sniffing in bits of food. I just pick the boogers out if she doesn't get them, and...

seriously cute! The spot on his back almost looks like a little heart

I fed Bella Mazuri for years, but she would have poo and belly issues periodically - she's not a big pellet eater either. I then tried Tradition, and that went well for a while, until she was barely eating it. When I switched to the PANR she steadily gained weight (she stayed right about 550...

I am so sorry, Shayna. My stomach dropped at the title of this thread, I am heartbroken for you. sleep well, little one.

I use Lime away on Kiwi's pan in the corners - it comes right up. I then rinse it really well, then wash with my regular cleaner and rinse again (in the bathtub) that lime away stuff is pretty nasty.

Happy Belated Birthday, Shayna!!

You stated it right in the beginning - we haven't had playtime for a while. If he'd gotten used to that playtime, he IS mad at you for taking it away. Some chins are just more nervous than others, it can really depend on experiences they had at the breeders or pet store. Patience is key, just...

I hope everything is ok with Ralphie! P.S. when I saw the title I thought this was going to be a chins=gremlins joke hehe

Poor little guy. I hadn't heard about your latest bout with fighting, you do seem to be having a run of bad luck with that :( Makes me appreciate Bella's obvious desire to get Kiwi; at lease I know what I'm dealing with.

That is too freakin adorable.

My Bella "bites" me on the back of the hand almost every night. I put that in quotes because she is actually grooming me, but she is ROUGH! She is actually nipping small bits of my skin off! My hand looks diseased. I have NO idea how to make her stop, as she doesn't seem to be doing it...

you look like Katie Holmes now!

nice! makes your eyes stand out.
