Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Yes. I've got two competent vets that I have pretty good faith in. One local that I can go to for simple stuff, and one a couple hours away that has a clinic with all the bells and whistles equipment for anything more complicated.

Question - what do you consider local? Within 5 miles? Perhaps within an hours drive?

DAND, who and where - pretty please!?!
The last one I seen was when I was a 20 yr old moron and he wanted to put my brb down (live feed,never again) I self treated and she was fine (after dam near a year).
The one my brothers took their uro's to one a couple of years ago couldn't even diagnose mbd and told them uvb/a lights weren't necessary.
Right now my dog's vet will see them if need be but I'd have to tell them what I need done/tested for.
