    Dax's breathing issuses

    Yesterday the gasping fits seemed like just to much to handle and too much for the little guy. However, today has been much better so I'm definitely going to hold out and let the meds work its course.

    Dax's breathing issuses

    Well they gave me a puffer for emergencies which is a little more comforting (mentally if nothing else). However, so far today no gasping fits, so were both feeling a little better, hes still tuckered out and breathing heavy, but nothing like yesterday. I asked if I should be putting him to...

    Dax's breathing issuses

    Last Saturday my 23 month old boy, Dax, was found gasping for air. I heard 2 large squeals from the next room and raced over to find him retching, his mouth open and gasping for air. Took him to the small animal clinic at the Ontario Vet College here in Guelph where they put him on oxygen...

    Homemade Hammocks (without a sewing machine)

    My first few hammocks that I made were made with 2 pieces of fabric (outside - flannel and inside fleece) "sewn" together with no-sew hemming tape. A grommet in each corner and voila! (I get my mother to sew them now, she hates the boys but seems to love creating the hammmocks)

    Homemade Hammocks (without a sewing machine)

    I use grommets + cheap metal shower hooks. Grommets are particularly good for joining material togeter as well. IE honeycomb hammock, turning flat hammocks to tubes etc
