Extremely good...Alerts very well. He's also gone through some trainings (obedience + security), so he's doing a good job. His level of aggression when I'm not around could sometimes be worrisome though.

Wow, I think that's nice to hear, so do you own another dog too or just this one?

Today I noticed a change in Murphy's movement, he often leaps his left front leg, I checked it out only to discover this "wet paw" what Murphy has been battling for months now... I really don't know if this is a parasitic or bacterial wound but it occurs once every 2months as I've observed..

His right hind leg is also affected, thanks goodness I noticed it too so treatment was commenced at once.
I washed the wounds with hydrogen, applied methylated spirit and violent paint to it.

Hopefully the wounds will dry up and he'll be fine again.

how tall is Gustaf at the withers?

I almost forgot your question lol, I got a tape yesterday and took the measurement this evening.

Gustaf is 2.1ft by width, I also tried measuring the length but Gustaf wouldn't keep calm, he nearly damaged the tape so i left him for good cheesy

I have no idea how measurements(length) are taken in dogs, maybe someone should give me a clue!

Re: Murphy the Boerboel and Gustaf the German shepherd by vincentjk(m): 8:31pm On Oct 01, 2018
Murphy is free from the wet paw, though the sore is not totally gone but at least he now thrills around the compound freely.

I'm happy i treated it, and I've also discovered an easier way of getting rid of that kinda sore that affects their paw. Instead of spending much on drugs and vet bills, the first aid treatment would do just fine if administered well.

It sometimes bothers me that at 2yrs of age Murphy has completely changed from the playful Murphy that spend most of his time playing around to a mean lazy-like dog, always lying around the compound and barely run these days except when he's in the mood to (maybe after getting a cool bath or receiving a treat from me). I get worried because he's still young and yet, beginning to exhibit the characters of an older dog

My kid sister now refers to Murphy as "an old man" even embarassed

I took Gustaf home and then decided to do the treatment by myself, I google online and also got some help from people on Nairaland here telling me what to get and how to do the parvo treatment.


I bought each and everything i was told to buy including;
Antibiotics
Diastop suspension
Oral b salt
Drip
Palm kennel oil

Treating parvo wasn't really easy for me but thanks goodness everything went fine and Gustaf rose again cheesy
