commented answer Rejected Client Continues to Message Me--Will It Affect My Booking Score If I Ignore?

That is very helpful. I haven't experienced this situation, but am glad to know we have support from Rover representatives and other sitters!

answered a question What is my dog mixed with?

Dog genetic testing is fairly inexpensive and does not require a blood test. Sending a set of cheek swabs from inside your pup's mouth to Wisdom Panel (http://www.wisdompanel.com) will yield DNA-based insights that may help you understand your dog's unique appearance, behaviors and wellness needs. With more than 250 identified breeds, they draw from a large database with types and varieties covered, too. You may even discover a drug sensitivity or allergy in the testing that could save your dog's life. $55 is a great value when you consider that. My family is happy to be able to identify the traits and characteristics in our Chihuahua/Beagle/Lab/Schnauzer rescue pup thanks to Wisdom Panel.

answered a question Why does my dog have goopy eyes?

At this time of year, there is a good chance your dog is responding to a pollen allergy. This year there is reportedly an especially high level of pollen. If his eyes are only affected seasonally, your veterinarian may be able to recommend an antihistamine and dosage that is safe for your pup. It is worth considering because an allergic response may be an opening for a secondary infection.
