squab 2,875 Posted January 8, 2014 Report Share Posted January 8, 2014 used to get them regular i even put a complete line of salt around the outside of the run, dog can get lungworm from them so i hang food and water bowls at height off the run bars 1 Quote Link to post

WhiteN 15 Posted January 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2014 Food and water already raised off floor, guess salting as I find them may be the best way, unless I can get some salt in between wood frame and slabs as I have a slight gap to allow water to run out . Quote Link to post
