How do I know if the toy I buy for my dog is safe?
When buying a toy for your dog, there are few things you can do to make
sure it is safe. First, you can consult your vet before buying a specific toy.
Second, you can consult the shop owner and ask him if there are any risks to
the specific toy. And lastly, you must look for the sign on the toy that says
"non-toxic". Then you will know the dog can put it in his mouth.
Blue dog food is it true?
AS an animal care specialist I will tell you as I tell everyone else..just because the BRAND NAME COMPANIES claims to be better that the others --doesn't make it so. The most natural foods with the LEAST additives are better. READ and compare the labels.

I’m in Dalby qld I own my house there’s a very big dog chained up on fence line can I put some shade cloth up on fence it will be professionally done or do I need council approval
you do not need council approval if you do it properly and the cost is minimal
for example you can erect a garden (2m X2m X1.8m)shed with out getting approval or even erect a shade cloth lean to
if you are doing it for a dog on some Else's property you will need permission from the joint boundary holder ( other farmer) for any additions to the fence line as it is common property but generally if you bear the cost yourself, there would be no problem from an understanding person
If however there is not a way of coming to an understanding about the welfare for the animal you could always call in the RSPCA as chained animals are entitled to protection from the elements

How can I treat mucus in dog stool
Dog stool normally contains some mucus, but excessive amount of mucus in the stool may indicate a medical condition and will need medical attention.
If your dog has mucus in the stool, this is what you can expect to happen next:
Medication: A small amount of mucus in the stool of a dog who is otherwise feeling fine (eating well, happy, active, no diarrhea, etc.) does not require treatment with medications, but a probiotic supplement may help. More severe cases will require medical therapy that varies with the underlying cause.
Diet: Sometimes switching to a highly digestible diet or adding additional fiber to the diet will help dogs with mucus in the stool. Boiled white meat chicken (no skin or bones), white rice, and a teaspoon to a tablespoon (depending on the size of the dog) of canned pumpkin is a good, homemade option that can be safely fed for a few days.
When abnormal amounts of mucus appear in a dog's stool over an extended period of time, your veterinarian will need to look for an underlying cause. He or she will collect a complete health history, perform a physical exam, and then may want to run some combination of the following tests:
- ***** examinations
- Blood chemistry panel
- Complete blood cell count
- A urinalysis
- Abdominal x-rays
- Endoscopy
- Biopsy of the intestinal tract
