<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Hi Vikki</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>I was happy to read your email because Violeta has
had MANY episodes of this floor-licking thing and whenever I try to explain to
somebody how these episodes go, everybody says they don't know what it is,
including the vet.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Because she has had this since she was a buppy we,
through observation, have concluded (more like a guess, really) that she does it
when she has some mucus on her throat and want to get rid of it. Now we try, if
possible, to put her in the backyard so instead of dust/hair/lint (*carpet*!)
she eats grass, then she throws up and most of the time she get better.
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Sometimes it looks almost like hiccups and she can
have it for a whole day/night and it even disturbs her sleep.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Does Spencer have it constantly or it was the 1st
time?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>If anyone knows what it is please let me
know.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>And why is Spencer not the nicest dog? An OEBE
maybe?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>We send love and drool to all those who
need,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Virginia, Xaxa and Violeta</FONT></DIV>
