Thanks for asking! Yea we dropped the sample off a couple days ago and we didn't hear back from him he said he'd let us know asap if their was an incident. Since we've switched him to raw he hasn't had one loose stool so I'm sure that was the problem.. unfortunately though he now has some dry skin issues on his legs. based on the picture of his father I'm guessing its a genetic thing. I know I've seen several doberman with this on their legs before

Davis ,just wondered if you give him any coconut oil it works wonders for their skin and coat and is also good for the digestion system, I get mine off Amazon.

I was wondering when the little slow grower would start to turn into a big boy.. seems like just in two weeks he's grown substantially in body and face..

I think he's becoming a little vane to be honest.. he stopped and waited for me to finish taking pictures before he went back to playing for most of these.

Today we also practice with the prong for the first time and it was a hit for the most part, couple things need improvement.

We also start day one of raw diet today. 2 massive boxes showed up this afternoon and we now have very limited freezer space the spoiled bugger..

Great Pictures! Odin is a looker.. But that Tree is freaking amazing..

I'll have to pick some up, I've heard a lot of great things about it cheers Judith

What things? The calluses on the elbows?

I'm not exactly sure what it is could be eczema or dry skin here's a quick pic I took

Great Pictures! Odin is a looker.. But that Tree is freaking amazing..

glad you liked the pics! I'd love to have a tree like that in my back garden. I have a few creative ideas in mind for some
More great snaps of it

The calluses on the elbows are not genetic. Most likely his father sleeps on concrete what is common in Eastern Europe. Definitely that a great idea to apply coconut oil to his elbow... but the most important don't allow him to lay on the hard floor (tiles, concrete, etc).
Gino had hygroma when he was 9 -12 months old. He loved to lay down on tiles in the summer. I had to buy special doggy legs to protect his elbows.

thanks for the advice! I always make sure he has a blanket to lay on in the kitchen but he must have got it from playing outside on the decking when I feed him marrow bones. I'll make sure he eats them on the grass from now on

I liked to supplement with salmon oil and vitamin E (the natural vitamin, not synthetic).
