back in june i had to take a kitten to the vet for a broken femur. he had been closed in a door at his last home. the vet was able to put it back together and it healed nicely. however the kitten is in pain still and not well. yesterday we figured out it is because of damage to the growth plates in his hips. the pelvic canal is too small and he is having pain with passing stools (primary issue), pain with walking (he waddles, is almost always stationary and has zero kitten-like attitude) and stunted growth in general (he is 1yr old and is the size of a 3 mo old). the vet is an amazing person. he thinks that if he removes a rib he can use it as a spacer to widen the pelvic canal. however, as with all surgery, it is no guarantee. i feel terrible because i dont know what to do. i am inclined to euthanize the poor baby because he is suffering that much, i dont want to put him through more trauma just to end up at the same outcome. what are your thoughts or opinions?

My dog was spayed almost 4 weeks ago and appears to have just developed a small seroma on her incision. Has anyone else had this experience and did you contact your vet?

Hi again all!!! So- today I took Rontu t the Ma and Pa trail. He was misbehaved, to say the least, yesterday. Today- he was a model citizen????♀️ So, I have to ask if his behavior may have been due to the fact that the kids were with me for some reason?

Good morning and happy thanksgiving Pawbly friends!!! We decided to go to a local trail this morning with the kids and the dogs. Rontu, who is usually pretty good on leash, was really a maniac. Lots of panting, whining, pulling…. really a jerk???? My thinking is anxiety because it is not one of our normal walking trails. We walk everyday, but the same usual routes with little variation. I am now going to start bringing him to other places once or twice a week where we can work on this behavior. I will be sure to bring lots of treats and patience. We have not had this issue with any of our other GSDs, so I am just guessing that this will be a good way to start to correct this behavior. If anyone has any other ideas, please share. Thanks!!!????????

I saw the video from Dr. Magnifico regarding polyp removal and cost. I was given from a vet here in the Salt Lake City area the cost of $2,000. How do I find a vet who will do the procedure for a lot less? Also, how do I make sure my feline has a polyp. She has only had a visual inspection and did show discharge on the right side when she sneezed. She has the snoring sound, the high pitched sound, and sneezing.

Harry usually chews on toys and treats. Yesterday he tore two blankets up. Some pieces are missing. Hope they are not in his belly. He is not hungry. Very well fed. He’s always snatched my other dogs treats and food. When he first got here, June 2020,, he chewed the stuffing out of his bed. Hasn’t done any of that till yesterday.

Is fentanyl really safe for dogs? My uncles dog was hit by a car and was taken to a emergency vet after xrays they found that his back legs are crushed and needs surgery the doctor gqve the dog fentanyl yes a patch that lasts 3 days they said he was in shock, if humans can get addicted to this drug can dogs? I always thought dogs cannot take or have these types of medicines by the way my uncle lives in texas
Hello,
I never use a flea bath anymore. It has very poor residual effect and in most cases they are pretty toxic ingredients (in my opinion ). There are much better products available these days. I like Revolution or frontline. It needs to be used monthly if you have a severe flea problem.
Okay thanks so i went to pet smart and they suggested this flea collar do you think that will help
Good morning-
Along with what Dr. Magnifico’s advice, I would recommend treating your home as well. Be sure to thoroughly clean and vacuum floors and furniture to get rid of any fleas or eggs. I would also wash bedding, etc. I would keep up with cleaning more often than usual until the fleas are gone. Hope this helps
Okay thank so i do clean and im using this flea spry from walmart do you think i need to like shampoo my carpets maybe?
