My Dog Jumped Off The Couch. I Think When She Landed She Broke Her Nail…

My dog jumped off the couch. I think when she landed she broke her nail off or split her pad. It’s bleeding a little. I tried a warm wash cloth but she didn’t like it. Anything else I should do?

    Is it still bleeding?  If it’s the nail push corn starch into the nail.  If it’s the pad then apply pressure with a dry washcloth or paper towel.  She isn’t going to like it but it needs to be done.  I would take her to the vet tomorrow.

    Good Luck

I got a 9 week old puppy five days ago. I have to return her due to noise complaints in the apartment. Do you think she will have a hard time going back to her mom dog and littermates?

    she should be fine, particularly if the breeder is an ethical one.  she’ll be placed in another home.  thank you for returning her rather than putting her in a shelter, though.

    I don’t know if this is strangles, but it sounds like the right treatment for any number of things. Taking her to your vet is the best idea ever.

    Hi, I’m not really sure what your question is so you may try re-phrasing it. He was sneezing a lot, then stopped? Was there new bedding or something in his environment? Any discharge from his eyes or nose? Trouble breathing?

My 3 year old German Shepherd has always had these issues: Excessive water intake, Scarfs down his food in seconds, Will not gain weight, Urinates and Defecates in the house and seems un-trainable, He constantly paces and just wont set still unless he is kenneled and he will still do circles and pace in his cage if he does set still out of it its for a minute at most, He recently though lost some hair on his stomach in a larch patch close to his chest.

    get his kidneys checked with an ultrasound.  get a full urinalysis done as well as bloodwork.  we had these symptoms in our first dobe, and it turned out he had something called renal displaysia – his kidneys were underdeveloped.  eventually he went into renal failure after a bout of dehydration. 

  2. Shelby Allen

    How long could a dog live with Renal Displaysia? And those tests are under way waiting until next paycheck and I am taking him in just wanting to be prepared for something exactly like what your saying.

    do what Laura says i think thats a good idea

    your dog has already outlived mine, so i can’t really give an accurate estimate.

  5. Shelby Allen

    I was only asking since he is 3 I am just looking for some hope that thats not it although its really the only thing that has made any sense. He goes in Friday for tests this is more just a form of support in a sense I am preparing myself for what the answers could be at first I thought the worst thing would be diabetes so hearing this is pretty concerning. Another thing about him that would lead me to believe that correct me please if I am wrong though, he was the runt….Would that be more likely to give a dog that diesese?

    though, according to the folks at UPenn, it CAN be the reason a dog doesn’t develop properly. that’s what happened to our boy. he didn’t develop properly, was the smallest at birth, etc.

I Was Giving Bones A Bath, And A Cat Was In The Bathroom Too. When…

I was giving Bones a bath, and a cat was in the bathroom too. When I was done bathing him, he wanted the cat, so he put his paws on the washing machine and that’s why he has it on his paw. He’s outside right now on a tether. I figure it would rub off by walking on the ground…

    a wet washcloth is usually a good weapon against soap… 🙂

  2. Annie Yang-Shaffer

    Do you think his walking around outside would be enough, or definitely not?

  3. Hamster Beagles

    if it doesnt come off from grass wash it off its not like its gonna burn his or her paw just dont let him lick it
