    HI Vicky,
    Did your vet tell you to leave the cone on ? If so and if she’s bothering her paw, then you need to leave the cone on ,,,take it off for a bit if you can watch her so she doesn’t bother her paw….but put it back on.
    Call your vet if you think the medication is not helping , or if things are getting worse.
    Good luck!

    Hi Vicky,
    No animal likes the cone, but it is something that they will adjust to. If your pet needs to wear one, keep it on her. Get to your vet to get the paw checked out, she could need pain meds or other medications to help.

    Hello Yasmin…..you need to register with a Vet and take your cat without delay.

    Blood in stools is never normal, nor is straining to go. Your cat could have any number of things going on, blockage of the bowel…infection…and this needs treatment.

    I hope he recovers soon.

    i don’t know much about agamid lizard species, but if she has a “strange dark spot” i’d be worried about infection or bruising.  please get her to a vet as soon as one opens in the morning.

    Hi Breonna,

    How old are they and for how long have they been coughing and sneezing?. I am not able to help much with your problem but this additional information may help the person that is knowledgeable enough to answer.   I hope they are better soon!

He Just Started This Last Night. I Set Something On The Floor For…

He just started this last night. I set something on the floor for him to eat and he just kinda dances around it. He has never done this before. If I pick it up and give it to him he eats it. If I put it in his bowl (that is raised)he eats it no problem.
Help!

    Any other abnormalities with head movement? Any signs of pain?

  2. brenda sumner

    No nothing else. He is going outside and everything seems to be working normal. He puts his head down to sniff the ground, it just seems to be when he eats.

  3. Jana

    Was it some new food item by chance? Is it still happening? Did you try with different foods/treats?

  4. brenda sumner

    No new food. He eats what ever it is if I hand it to him or if it’s in his bowl. I even had to raise his water bowl this morning.

  5. Jana

    Hm, something is going on there; I’d still suspect pain of sorts. I’d have him checked. Sometimes things start out subtle.

  6. brenda sumner

    I just got home and gave him one of his favorite treats, same thing dropped it on the floor and kind of circled it. I feed it to him and he eats it. He doesn’t seem to have pain but dogs don’t show pain all the time. If he scratched his throat with something would he maybe act that way?

  7. Jana

    Not sure if a scratch could have done it but I do feel that SOMETHING hurts when he tries to get it off the floor.

  8. brenda sumner

    I am going to take him in and have him checked. Thanks for your time.

    Hello,
    It sounds like a trip to your vet for an exam is in order. Lumps and other issues should be checked out by a vet. It is impossible to know for certain if lumps are skin related or from fighting without seeing your dog and knowing it’s history. If you can ask the previous owner about what is going on.

I Have A 35 Lb Beagle. She Ate What Appeared To Be A Chewed…

I have a 35 lb beagle. She ate what appeared to be a chewed up piece of gum stuck to the sidewalk about an hour ago. Is this is a situation where the after hours vet should be called?

    Chewing gum is really dangerous for pets.  If it were me I would go to the emergency vet right away.

    going to agree 100% with Diedra.  because you don’t know if this gum had xylitol (which is toxic) in it, best to get to the vet NOW.

  3. Dawn Simon

    Thanks. I am in a small town & have no emergency vets anywhere close, only option is to call one at home. In the meantime I have read about amounts of xylitol that are toxic for a dog this size & most likely she would need to eat more than one piece (especially chewed up as much of xylitol should be gone). I will call my vet in the morning. I appreciate the advice, just difficult to follow in these specific circumstances.
