About Ellen Carozza
Expertise
Being a Licensed Veterinary Technician of 10 years, I can answer most to all of your veterinary questions. I do draw the line when I see people trying to get information and having a on-line diagnosis for their pet vs. getting the basic information needed to have a successful examination and consultation with their veterinarian.

Experience
I am a Licensed Veterinary Technician of 10 years currently practicing in Virginia and I am also licensed in the state of New York. I have worked with non-human primates,cats and dogs. I currently work at a "feline exclusive" veterinary hospital. My passion is cats, I have 5 of them. All of them are rescues with some illness.

Organizations belong to
I am currently the Vice President of the Virginia Association for Licensed Veterinary Technicians. I have been a member of VALVT for 5 years since moving to Virginia. I am also a memeber of the American Society of Veterinary Dental Technicians (ASVDT).

Education/Credentials
I have a AAS in Veterinary Technology, from SUNY Delhi. I am also a certified Veterinary Dental Technician.
I also run a fun personal website... AMCGLTD... visit any time!

Ask the Veterinarian - Dog diet... and dead grass.


Expert: Ellen Carozza - 3/13/2005

Question
Hello,
I have an 8 month old White Shepherd. She is a handful. We're in the process of getting her to stop chewing on everything! Including walls. But my biggest dilema, today, is the dead patches of grass from her urine. Is this something that can be corrected with diet? Could you please help?

Answer
That usually means she has really strong urine.

There is a product you can get in petstores to put on the grass to prevent it from dying from the urine. Other than that you can also dump a bucket of water over the spot to help dilute the urine as well.
