Dandie is very defensive, she will grunt at me and will attempt to scratch my hands when I put my hands in her cage for anything. Is there anything I can do to help lessen her fear or defensiveness?
Time is your friend! Taking things slow and getting Dandie used to you over time may help her to feel a little more comfortable around you. You can begin by making sure her cage is in an area that is low traffic/low stress to help reduce external stresses. You can then begin to offer a favorite treat any time you walk past the cage, without touching or interacting. Once she is used to this, you can then offer the treat from your hand each time you come by. After a while you can graduate to petting and then gently handling while offering a treat each time. Over time she will begin to associate you with positive things (yummy foods) rather than scary (big giant person coming and handling her).

Hello, 1-toothpaste:using petsmile,no complain,but pricey.Other enzymatic toothpastes like sentry petrodex,virbac cet,nutri vet are good too? Or petsmile is the best of the best? Having greenie daily too. 2-itch relief shampoo:vet suggested wash paws
Nikki is adorable! Thanks for including pictures! Yes, PetSmile is expensive, but it is one of the only toothpastes to actually be approved by the Veterinary Oral Health Council. Here is a list of their approved products. http://www.vohc.org/VOHCAcceptedProductsTable_Dogs.pdf PetSmile is what I use with my dogs. (Last year they ran a 25% off sale before Christmas, so I stocked up!) Yes, it is fine to use Dawn on Nikki's feet daily, but I suspect any gentle cleaner would be fine as well. You may have to experiment to find the best shampoo for her. I have been very pleased with EarthBath products, so you might want to try their Oatmeal and Aloe shampoo for itch relief. https://earthbath.com/product/oatmeal-aloe-shampoo/ There are also prescription itch relief shampoo and conditioner products if needed that you can talk to your vet about. Good luck! I hope that was helpful and answered your questions. Thanks for using Boop by Petco.

I got my dog from someone but they never gave me a shot record. What should I do? Just take him to the vet anyway or what? Also,if I do take him and tell the vet this,what will they do? Give him the shots anyway or what?
Hello, thank you for using Boop by Petco. Great question! Yes, you need to take Dandy to a vet and let them know that you just got him but did not receive any vaccine records. . They will get him started on his vaccines and likely give him a deworming. They will talk to you about what else he may need like heart worm prevention, flea/tick prevention, etc depending on what is prevalent in your area. It is best to get him established with a vet anyway in case of any problems that may arise or emergency situations. Hope this helps. Best wishes!

Hello, my name is Angel and I have a 4 month old female Shorkie. She has dry flaky skin, looks like dandruff on the area underneath her ears and neck area. Is there anything I can use from petco to help this out or this a serious matter?
Flaky skin, like what you have posted a picture of, can be due to an overgrowth of yeast in the skin. This can also make the skin greasy and malodorous. Typically a medicated shampoo is most beneficial in cases like this. I hope this helps. Thanks for using Boop by Petco. Best of luck.

ive been trying to use only all natural products because my pets are allergic/ very sensitive to a lot of products all the natural one seem to work really well for them i usually get their stuff online but i was at Walmart and bought no rinse waterl
Thanks for using Boop by Petco. This appears to be one of the better ones I’ve seen. Other than the last ingredient (dye- probably in minuscule amounts since its last on the list), this product appears to be made entirely from plant extracts and I would indeed call it “natural”.
