We had to bring our 25lb farm dog indoors as he got caught in a snare,thankfully his front leg was in the snare too so he didn't get
strangled,but he stood out in the cold weather ( below freezing and
snow storms)for three days before the trapper found him and released
him and he returned home(during that time we were frantically trying to
find him)...anyway,we had the vet treat him and we did all the things
we needed to do to make him an indoor dog.......
I was quite concerned how our two cats,who have never met a dog in their
lives would react......well,they adore him. They both lay by him and watch over him. He can get up and move around but he sleeps a lot still from his
ordeal. He tolerates them because he was used to our barn cats. I just can't believe that when he came in there was no hiding or hissing or any behavior problems....
Anyone ever get this lucky????
Also, I realize this is a cat site not a dog site,but as an outside dog he was
getting ol roy dog food but I want something better....anyone with dogs that could recommend something,it would be great. My vet recommends science diet(of course)...is it any better of adog food than it is for cats??
THANKS!!!!!
