Itch, scratch, nibble, chew, lick, and bite An itch is a terrible thing. It drives dogs (and cats, though less commonly) mad. They can\’t sleep.

Your dog\’s response to perceived danger is always arousal – their Sympathetic Nervous System (SNS) is triggered, and a range of hormones are released. The adrenal glands go into overdrive, pumping out adrenaline and noradrenaline. These hormones prepare the

Vaccinations are biological medcines with well documented adverse side effects, up to and including death! I\’m not anti-vax. I\’ve seen too many dogs dying an agonising death from Parvovirus to be fundamentalist about that. HOWEVER!!! Over-vaccination is the norm with companion animals.
