Krista Magnifico Hello, If you are worried you should talk to your vet about them. The only way any kind of lesion can be diagnosed is via an examination and in most cases a biopsy. Just like with people. Things like melanomas are possible in both dogs and humans. They are diagnosed via in person exam and histopathology.
My dog has not had a bowel movement in 4 days . Is there a home remedy I can try ?

Sarah I would let my vet know and see what they recommend. I know that one time one of our dogs was on a medication that bound him up and it was recommended that we feed him pumpkin. I don’t know if this particular situation warrants that or not, but your vet would probably be able to discuss this with you. Good luck!

Krista Magnifico I would be very afraid that the lack of output is related to a lack of input. That’s what I most commonly see. A dog who is not eating well or at all. The only thing I can safely recommend is to see your vet for an exam so they can assess whether this is an obstruction, constipation, anorexia, etc. until you know why your dog isn’t defecating I would not try anything at home. Please see your vet as quickly as possible. Either tonight or by morning. Good luck

Shiria I agree to Krista. Bring your dog to a vet. While there are home remedies you should look for the cause first.
Examples:
– If your dog ha snot eaten (enough), there can be no output – what are the reasons why he doesn’t eat?
– The dog has eaten enough, the cause could be slow bowel movements or even a blockage. Forcing something through that blockage could kill your dog.
Hi good morning-
I’m not sure I’m reading your question properly- are you wondering if this bruise is from the muzzle? I’ve not had that happen. It could be from struggling at the vet- depending on how hard he was fighting everyone. Are you certain it wasn’t there earlier? Probably- we know our pets. I would call Jarrettsville- they may say bring him in and take a peak since it’s really hard to tell from a pic. They’re very good there and I’m sure they will be able to advise you. I would call them- hope things are ok!????
Hello.
I expected it was from a blood draw. I have confirmed with the doctor you saw. I’m sorry I didn’t get this last night. If you need us we are here. I work all day today if you have any concerns. Sincerely krista
