Check the local hardware or box stores for a Dremel.
Gabapentin has an adjustment period. Give it a few days.

The vet warned me that because she is a senior it could cause wobbliness or lack of coordination. She was twitching a bit this morning but apparently that's just her muscles reacting.Check the local hardware or box stores for a Dremel.

This is what I use for nails.Well, I got the big sore on her back all cleaned up. Gave her a taste of the raw with her evening pills. She was begging for it so that's a good sign.
Sore on her back is just from her chewing where her back hurts. It just gets matted from the vet spray so I need to clean it all the time. She hates it so it's always a fight.
Now on the hunt for a nail grinder because she can no longer walk far enough to keep her nails in check. Every store in North Bay is sold out and for some reason Amazon has a one month delivery time on them.
But the meds seem to be not making her too wobbly, she just sleeps for a bit.
So glad she’s eating! 😊Oh and she wolfed down some more raw this morning! I don't know how much to give her so just giving her whatever. But she's eating!
I'd prefer to ♥ this reply. Not just like. 😉Well she wolfed down about 3/4 of a pound yesterday. Lol. First time in her life I haven't had to beg her to eat!
Gabapentin seems to be fine. She is back to her feisty, snarky self. Scaling snow banks and lipping off. No loose stools, no vomitting. She sleeps for a bit right after I give it. That's all.
For anyone who is curious, still no food aggression. I hold her dish and rub her ears while she is eating. She still needs to be close to me.
Some people had suggested that kibble fed dogs aren't food aggressive because it is not high value enough. That they would be food aggressive if raw fed.I don't remember you ever posting about food aggression,
Copied from preymodelraw.com:I have no clue how much of this stuff to feed her. Lol. I'm guessing one stick of it weighs somewhere around 1.5 lbs. So I just keep giving her inch thick slices every few hours. Lol. I'm guessing she will stop when she's full.
I hope she eats soon. Please let us know🙂She has been mad at me all day because her food didn't thaw in time so her breakfast was a bit small and she didn't get lunch. Yes I am feeding her three meals, I just tortured her stomach and she needs time to heal.
Anyway, I finally got some thawed and set it down for her. She walked away. Seriously. I was very excited about this, thought we had solved the eating issue.
I put it in the fridge. Will try again in a bit. She ate about a pound yesterday, and she had about 1/4 of a pound for breakfast.
Not happy right now.
