I've had owners try to lance open abcesses at 
home with steak knives, tell me pets were keeping 
their wounds "clean" by licking them ("how can my 
pet have such a bad infection?"), give lots of 
cheese to dogs with diarrhea (because "cheese 
binds up people so I thought it would work for 
the dog"), and for the funniest one I've seen 
yet, one lady's solution to her dog incessantly 
chewing at it's skin was to *duct tape* over all 
the parts he was chewing. (I'm really not 
kidding! ~_~)  And the dog was *nasty* to boot, 
we all almost got bitten trying to get the tape 
back off. ~_~

There are some owners who come to my clinic for 
whom I would crawl across broken glass if they 
needed me to. . . And then these other people 
walk in and I curse the fact that *ANY* ding-dong 
can buy a pet. ~_~

Many Sharp Smiles,
