My anole lizard has bumps at the back of its body near the tail. I’m thinking its impacted eggs. Anything I can do.
She is six months I’ve tried many things with her litterbox she was spayed last Tuesday and got a rabies vaccination I just changed her food three days ago but she has puked a few times two months or more ago she also seems a tad bit friendlier
My dog is female and 5 years old and i have noticed that her physical behaviour is inappropriate (humping her bed) and my question is why?
My 5 month puppy has been throwing up multiple times in the past couple weeks. She starts to breath heavy almost sounding congested and then vomits. It is usually clear fluid sometimes with a slight yellow tint and has full undigested treats. It usually happens at the end of the night.

Tracey Nash So, I’m obviously not an expert, but I can tell you that my 6 month old labrador retriever experienced something similar to this about two weeks ago and it turns out it was because he had (over the course of a couple of weeks we think) been swallowing pieces of a blanket, which caused a stomach/intestinal blockage. After a trip to the vet and a barium study (and about $500) he is fine, but it was scary for a few hours there. Not sure if this helps, but thought I would share. Good luck with your puppy!

Angie Von Hoff Thanks! I’m pretty sure that is what happened. Did your vet have to remove the blockage or did it pass on its own?

Tracey Nash Thankfully it passed on it’s own! The vet wanted to keep him until it had traveled to his colon (she said the esophagus, stomach and intestines are where they worry about it getting stuck) and then once it’s there, she said we were out of the trouble zone, so we could take him home and wait for him to pass it naturally. It took a couple of days and came out in several different pieces, but eventually was all gone. Really hope everything turns out okay with your puppy!
My question is could he be having urinati g problems now because of that. I have caught him 3times on 3 different rugs squatting looking like he wants to peepee, so i then go to pick him up to put him in the litterbox and he crys alittle like hes in pain. He use to complain the same way after when i would stop his brother from suckin on him.

Dawn Ferara, DVM I actually had a male kitten that had a sibling suckle on the end of penis and had actually caused an injury to the penis so the male cat could not pee! It was easily fixed and required some TLC. Today the cat is fine.
So take him to a vet ASAP!
my little dog has had dairra for the past 4 day and half the time he trys but he cant poop he looks like he is in stress trying i cant get him to eat hardly or drink water he isnt acting like him self at all
I noticed yesterday that my dog was limping, and later saw that there is a cut on her hind left leg that was bleeding. I gently wiped away the blood, seeing that there is a strip about 5cm long that has no hair, which is where she was bleeding from. Since, she has been constantly licking at the area, and it is obviously painful for her to walk on it, or even when she is resting. The cut itself doesn’t look much like a cut at all, as it isn’t deep or (as far as I can see) indented at all. The only thing which is clear is that there is no hair in this area, and it seems strange to me that the hairless strip is straight, so I don’t think that she caused it herself.
She is a 5 and a half year old Staffordshire Bull Terrier, crossed with (it is assumed) a Labrador – she was found by the RSPCA and they are not 100% certain what she is crossed with.
Yesterday I noticed she has an inflamed vulva, and today there is brown discharge from her urethra. She is normally fairly mellow with bursts of energy (she is a 9 month old pup after all), but today she has slept all day and barely left the couch. She feels warm, but I do not have a thermometer specifically for her so I can’t determine if she has a fever.
I’m not sure if this is related, but yesterday morning and the night before she threw up after meals. She was eating faster than usual because we were visiting a home with another dog, so she wanted to finish eating so they could play. I suspected that was the cause, but I don’t want to leave it out just in case.
There are no emergency veterinarians in or near the small town I live in so I’m very anxious if something is wrong!

Anonymous has she gone into heat before? i’m not a vet, but a suddenly fluffy vulva (and THANK YOU for using the correct term!) and brownish discharge would make me think it’s a heat cycle.
-
Brenna Routhe She is spayed, and as far as I know she never had a heat cycle before the operation. Unfortunately I don’t know for sure because I adopted her from a rescue who spayed her before adoption. Thanks for the quick answer!
-
Anonymous hmm. that was my only thought. it’s possible she’s dealing with a UTI. i’d get her in first thing tomorrow morning unless one of the resident vets pops in with another idea.
-
Brenna Routhe Thanks! 🙂 I was planning on it, just wanted to get a quicker opinion since she won’t be able to be seen until tomorrow morning at the earliest.

Brent Harte The vulva is an organ designed to clean its various anatomical structures by creating discharge. For this reason the discharge itself is not problematic it is the color and odor. The color and odor indicates the level of infection or presence of unhealthy microbes, UTI, Etc. I do not have a course of action to recommend, I believe a veterinarian’s diagnoses is required until you more fully understand what this type of discharge represents. Your dog’s temperature is great measure to the level of immune system activity and infection, so knowing your dog’s temperature now combined with the vet’s diagnoses will give a valuable benchmark for the next event. I would recommend becoming an expert in your dog’s temperature during the treatment process for future use. This type of ailment tends to reappear but at numerous levels of severity, being able to determine via temperature combined with the color and odor should assist you in future treatment decisions.
thank you for the info. I said it was his tooth. its not bleeding bad and he has not changed at all. the same playful baby I fell in love with. he still eats him food. should I change from his regular food to soft food.
