OK, you win. That is now a much funnier image than soaking a foot! ;)

Sit down next to it and call the dog over. Just pick up the paw in question and place it in the water. Pet the dog while it is soaking and the Ollie will probably just stand there and enjoy it. > > If you want an funny mental image, I do have a story to tell. About 6 months ago, I was involved with a Saluki rescue (BTW, he is still looking for a forever home). We had him neutered and he was not interested in taking it easy as the vet had suggested. In addition, he did not kennel well, so kenneling didn't work. He developed some internal bleeding (minor) but it did cause swelling in the area that had been removed. I called the vet and she told me to put an ice pack on the area. Now just imagine get a male dog to lie still while you place an ice pack on his privates. Yup, didn't last long. ;-) > > Rebecca > From: "skolodch" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Date: 2004/09/15 Wed PM 04:09:15 EDT > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [SCA_Coursing] Re: foot issues & food > > No mention about Epsom Salts.
