    Someone earlier was snooty about a semester in Vet School about Reptile and no courses taught. I then said there are special courses you take to become an exotic or specialist in reptiles. It seems like you ignore the comments that are aimed at me with some attitude I am not like this at all...

    Ok, no she didn't or never has eaten Hyacinth flower. She loved dandelions and leaves. No, she is not in danger of my dogs. As a breeder I totally know about giving advice I have over 45 yrs experience but I never came off as condescending I gave credible advice when needed. I am saying maybe...

    Well, I have been criticized without knowing my background or knowledge of Sally. Maybe you should be aware of the approaching members not so condescendingly to which I felt some were doing something wrong. I can take advice anytime but maybe some should look into their comments also. It...

    I would take advice and see validity in it. But I will not take unrespectful criticism of what I do with Sally

    As far as my Vet goes he specializes in Reptiles. When you specialize in Reptiles there is more to study. Why would you say there are no semesters on that, maybe in Vet school practicing on basic pets, but reptiles are different and you have to know what to do and the difference. Not every Vet...

    No, she is loose now No, not trolling. My Sally is healthy & happy. If this forum is strictly for you to inform people about their tortoise and what you are doing wrong, I guess this is not what I thought the forum is all about

    It is not the first time I have received off-topic comments about my breeding of dogs. So yes I did react to that comment. You and others have totally left out the part of Sally's feeding of fresh veggies & fruit but jumped on that one issue about an OTC food I said she liked. It has been a...

    by VicL at Citysearch August 26, 2009 Great Reptile Vet ★★★★★ I took my Chinese Water Dragon to see Dr. King because I heard that he was THE reptile vet to go to in the STL area.

    Sally vet

    stop obviously she is not the world's nicest person for suggesting that anyone would feed their Russian Tortoise dog food. She and you owe me an apology. You can contact my Vet Dr. King at Watson Road Veterinarian clinic in St Louis Mo who says Sally would not need a beak trim for another 6...

    New food for Sally

    As I said my Vet has tortoises, frogs, and other reptiles in his home and he will continue to be my adviser and doctor for Sally. I would never want to put her in any danger. She went through a period that she loved dandelions but this summer she does eat them. LOL. A lot of people don't know...

    New food for Sally

    Well, let's step back and drop this, because as I said before if my vet says it is ok to feed her that I will. I don't know how your tortoise is but Sally can be picky and sometimes won't eat. So I have a wide variety of food for her and mostly fresh vegis I love Sally and all animals even to...

    New food for Sally

    What fruits can I Feed my Russian tortoise? In general, Russian Tortoises should eat only a very limited amount of fruit. In small amounts, apples can be beneficial to Russian Tortoises due to their high pectin content. Russian Tortoises should mainly eat leafy greens such as Romaine lettuce...
