I have a very active Pomchi (pomeranian/chihuahua mix), he was playing fine then I noticed him limping. Front left foot. He is not whimpering and I can move his paw back and forth. Do you think it is a slight sprain? What can I do?

Dawn Ferara, DVM It could be a slight sprain, but it’s more likely he stepped on something. I would check the paw carefully for injuries or something lodged between his toes.
Other than that I would watch him for a few days and try to keep him resting and if he is still painful on Monday I would take him to your local vet.

My 9 Month Old Puppy Has Been Given Pyrantel Liquid Wormer Multiple Times, But The…
My 9 month old puppy has been given pyrantel liquid wormer multiple times, but the worms are still there. I made the mistake of letting her pick up a dead squirrel, so I think that’s where she got the worms. I used this wormer. https://www.southernstates.com/catalog/p-1443-happy-jack-liqui-vict-2x-wormer-2oz.aspx
I first noticed the worms because I saw dried yellow rice shaped things under her tail, and she had soft runny bloody stool with golden worms. After I gave the medicine, those worms went away and her poop is hard again, but the worms are now small and white. What kind of worms are small and white, and are not affected by pyrantel? Thanks.

Anonymous sounds like you’re treating the wrong kinds of worms. have you taken your puppy to the vet to get the correct wormer?
-
Annie Yang-Shaffer Yeah, I figure as much. 🙁 It’s been very frustrating. And no, I haven’t.
-
Anonymous that should be your next stop. that should be your first stop, really – can’t treat correctly without knowing which worms you’re treating, and whether there are others you don’t know about, you know?

PK Dennis AND never buy over-the-counter wormers at a grocery store! Many of the ones for sale are not effective, and some can kill your pup! Always go to a vet to be sure you get your pup the help it needs while keeping it safe.

debra yuhasz You seem to be describing tapeworm. This comes from your pup ingesting a flea. The best place to get meds for tapeworm at the proper dosage for your dog is to get it from the vet. Pyrantel works well for everything EXCEPT, you guessed it, tapeworm. She will have to be wormed twice a week to 10 days apart to ensure the worms are gone. Also, your puppy can re-infect as long as he has fleas to accidently swallow.

Annie Yang-Shaffer I’m not really sure how I can answer your main question, sorry, but maube you should throw away your trash in a dumpster trash can.

Annie Yang-Shaffer Is your dog a new dog? Is your mom a new person to your dog? For the first 2 or 3 months of having my puppy, she responded emotionally less to me as well. She is more affectionate to my husband because she barely sees him, so she likes him more. Also, it’s beneficial to always reward with a treat every time.

Yousef Radwan Thnx for your feedback, I’ll try to improve my relation with him.

Anonymous YES, she is too young to mate, and i would NEVER breed a dog with health problems! that’s irresponsible. spay her, please.
-
Anonymous to clarify: under the age of 2 is irresponsible, as the dog has not had an opportunity to mature properly. it would like letting a 12 year old girl have a baby. she isn’t mentally or physically prepared to handle a litter of puppies and it could cause her to have difficulties with nursing properly.
allowing her to breed when she’s unable to walk is appalling. i can’t fathom why anyone would consider this acceptable.
-
Anonymous i’m STILL disgusted by this post. i honestly cannot believe someone thinks this is a good idea.
-
Anonymous i applaud your optimism. knowing the standard of pet care in India, i can’t be that optimistic.

Anonymous possibly dumb questions, but:
1 – has she been checked for a UTI?
2 – when was she spayed? if younger than 6 months, i would be asking my vet about spay incontinence. in my breed this seems to be a common side effect of pediatric spays.
No One Let Him In, Nor Is There A Way He Can Get In On…
No one let him in, nor is there a way he can get in on his own. He is acting lethargic. He seems to have lost some weight. He will not eat and is currently resting on the edge of our bed. He will take water. He is not purring. He moves slowly. Any idea of what might be wrong?

Anonymous i don’t know but i DO know i’d be getting him to the vet.
and please, don’t let him back outside. you live in an area with a number of animals that can cause your cat harm or kill him. if you care for him, you’ll keep him inside, where he’s safe.

She is a 5 month Pomeranian. We have taken her to the vet and was prescribed some tonics. But still there is no change. She also loves to eat paper and anything else she can get her paws on. She still hasn’t understood commands like SIT, STAY, etc. I am 15 and she is my first pet.

Anonymous she’s the right age for teething, which is when puppies’ gums are sore and eating can be painful. this is also the age both of my puppies went through a stage where they didn’t want to eat anything, so i would use that as an opportunity for training. i would put the bowl down and leave it for 15 minutes, and if she doesn’t touch the bowl, pick it back up. i would use her kibble as training treats so she’s working for it – you should be working on basic obedience right now, anyway, so it’s an ideal opportunity for that.
once she has all her adult teeth in, she should go back to eating normally.
i would keep things she shouldn’t eat out of her reach.
DO NOT WAIT TO SEE THE VET GO NOW OR CALL NOW PLEASE. I WISH U SO MUCH LUCK ON UR KITTEN!
