UNCONTROLLABLE "SCOOTING"...HELP!
"It has progressed to uncontrollable licking of the "behind" area.
So much so that no hair can or will grow. He also now rocks on his
rear-end instead of actually scooting. And he cries while he's doing
it. My vet put him on Prednisone but it only helped temporarily.
AND they don't know what is wrong with him. HELP!" MNTG

PUPPY ON THE PROWL FOR CHICKENS
"I have a 5 month old puppy, 1/2 beagle, 1/2 Brittany Spaniel.
Within the last several weeks he has started chasing and killing
our chickens. We live on a farm, 92 acres, and have always let
our dogs run loose. Is there anything I can do to break him of
this. Or is it hopeless since he is part bird dog?" ROBIN1963

CALLING ALL VETERINARIANS!
I am a 14 year old high school student and currently I am attending
Health Careers High Shool. I need to ask a few, simple questions
concerning veterinary medicine as it is required in a project in
which I must interview someone from the field of work that I desire.
