I have a 10 year old female labrador who has recently been licking her vagina very frequently. Today we noticed a very large lump next to her vagina. She is not eating, however drinking a lot, but not going to the toilet to wee

my bearded dragon has been acting weird today. He was fine this morning now his legs start to twitch and go paralized. We gave him a calcium bath and that didn’t help at all.

How to nurse and how much food should 4 week old pup eat? He’s on metronidazol, because his previous owner gave him polluted water and he developed severe amebiasis. How long should he sleep? He’s mom died. His sisters died of amebiasis too

Anonymous if memory serves, based on some research i’ve done, puppies should be eating 5-6 meals per day at that age. do you have support from your vet?

Anna K Krista, thank you for your advice! Today I gave him breakfast (puppy food with warm water and a bit of oatmeal – syringe), 2nd breakfast (the same, but he vomitted it as he didn’t feel good in the afternoon), home made chicken soup with celery and carrots – syringe – couple of times during the day because he felt nauseated and he ate small portions (1 small syringe at a time, next in 15 – 20 minutes, sometimes 2 syringes at a time). When he smelled our dinner all of the sudden he jumped out of the bed and ate some chicken (boiled), not much, but it was his initiative. He played with our lab, played with his stuffed chicken and went to bed. Now I’m waking him every half our and I give him blended rice with egg yolk, chicken and warm water.
Laura, unfortunately no because our vet told me that he’s gonna die. And I’m not giving up on him.
How long is recovery time for a puppy getting a umbilical hernia removed and neutering done at same time? Will stitches dissolve? He will be 8 weeks old

Margrit Simons Hi (Dr.) Krista;
I just want you to know how much I respect you for all the time, energy and caring you so freely provide! People like you make this crazy world we live in so much better and because of your dedication and caring you give people so much desperately needed hope!
She is also breathing more weirdly than normal.
*vulva.
and she needs to be seen by a vet.
Okay thanks to the both of you. Just a little difficult when my mother doesnt work :/ we will obviously take her to the vets, but will not be immediatley.
larger dogs and strong breeds tend to wait longer before letting the owner know something is wrong, leaving less time to treat quickly/ properly. Not eating and breathing changes are major issues. You can usually see a vet for maybe $40 and go from there, arrangements might can be made about the $ (discounts/ payments/charities/etc), so don’t wait.
