About Kristen Cabe
Expertise
I can answer training questions, both basic and advanced, and am familiar with almost all of the methods and tools used. I am not closed-minded and do not think that one method and one tool is the best/only way to train. I answer questions with consideration to both the owner`s and the dog`s needs and abilities. I am also very knowledgeable about canine nutrition.

IF YOU HAVE A HOUSETRAINING QUESTION, PLEASE go to my web page on housetraining, located at http://housetraining.angelfire.com. If you try the suggestions there, and are still having problems, let me know.

Experience
I have been training for more than five years, and studying canine nutrition for more than six years. I have taken three online veterinary assistant classes given by the local community college, and received final grades in the high 90's for all three.

Dogs - Painkiller for dogs


Expert: Kristen Cabe - 3/8/2007

Question
I have a 6-7 month old pit bull-rott mix who got clipped by a car either late last night or this morning, and i was wondering if i can give him ibuprofen or aspirin for the pain in his foot-leg region.  

Answer
No, No, NO! You can NOT give a dog ibuprofin, and I'm not going to tell you the proper dosage of buffered aspirin because you need to take your dog to the vet and have him examined to make sure there are no broken or fractured bones, or nerve/tendon damage. Shame on you for not doing that already, Chance!
