GSD = German Shepherd Dog

Why is this in the Braggs section? Why is it that you are spelling "GDS" instead of GSD? Why do you find a lack of punctuation and grammar acceptable when asking others for written help? What is it that you find funny (ref:

) about your dog's situation?

Overall, I don't understand your post at all. Take a little initiative in your communication, and you might get a similar response.

Ouch. Way to welcome a newbie.

To translate - the dog has skin issues despite numerous medications from the vet. It's not that hard to figure out.

Can you post pics yet, Mjxx?
If so that'd be helpful.
What food is your dog on?
What medications have you tried? Antibiotics? Steroids?

I think it was just a typo. Maybe the person is not very computer/typing literate and just wants some help urgently for her dog. It doesn't hurt to be nice. Try it.

With regard to the skin issues. Our dog's scratching turned out to be allergies during a certain time of year. Benedryl (sp?) worked great.

I didn't say anything that wasn't nice. If you're going to come on an internet forum where people interact via written communication and ask for help, then at least have enough respect to not sound like a ten year old on a cell phone. It only takes a few extra seconds and you know, it really isn't that difficult.

Good luck with your dog's skin issues though. You might want to try some of the awesome stuff here: http://carmspack.com/7_feedsentials/feed_sentials.htm

Willy, your post was less than inviting or helpful. I took the post to be coming probably from a mobile device or phone where people tend to type in code.

OP, what sort of skin issues are you having with your dogs? What have you tried? What are you feeding your dogs (most skin issues are food related).

I have a GSD mix with severe allergies, especially to wheat. I keep her on a good-quality, grain-free food which helps.

Mjxx · 02-09-2012, 03:52 PM

I was using my phone and I am deeply sorry about my grammar mistake I hope I didn't offend anybody.My dog Barney eats the regular dog food such as Pedigree and Winalot.
