Anonymous congratulations!

Eddie Eidinger I had a meet and greet with my golden retriever at the park with my 1.5 year old pit bull rescue It went good but the pit bull wanted to Inge in a playful way she had a wagging tail and didn’t show any aggression not sure what that means i don’t think she had much socializing with other dogs but got a A on her temperament test at the shelter.

karolina dabrowski That is very very good!! Go to the park as often as you can!! I rescued my boxer/mastiff or cane corso (unsure) and she was extremely shy at the dog park her first time. Now is a completely different story she runs around jumping like a maniac she thinks everyone is friendly. Its really cute. Socialize as much as you can you will be so glad you did everybody will love your dog!! Congrats on doing a really good thing :)!!!

julie brader Hello, you don’t say if this is a dog or a cat ect.
Any animal this young showing these symptoms needs a Vet urgently. Please take Bella straight away or she could well die if you don’t. This could be Parvo Virus….but whatever it is she will not recover without professional treatment.
Good luck and I really hope little Bella is alright.

karolina dabrowski Please rush to the vet!!! Give her plenty of water not food.
My 13 year old female chihuahua has a licking issue. She licks herself all the time especially at night. But then she licks the bed or the furniture. Is this normal

Catherine Pepe licking is a boardem response or anxiety problem. Like people bite their nails! So any kind of other stimuli that you can do for her by wearing her completely out and then giving you toys she can chew on will keep her busy. Then when she tried to do it again, squirt her with water and say no. Keep at this …you willl break it!
-
cheryl yoshida will the squirt bottle help with the barking. Its not like I am protecting barking its annoying high pitched barking
-
karolina dabrowski LOL that’s how Chihuahuas are. You should socialize your dog more let her/him go out more and meet other dogs. Don’t let your dog hide behind you let her bark all she wants alone in front of dogs and she/he wont feel so tough. As long as your dog isn’t a biter. As far as I know, the licking is a problem. Stress related. You should hire a dog specialist that trains dogs in your area.
I have a 13 year old female chihuahua and lately when she walks her back end goes sideways and she will just randomly fall

Catherine Pepe Your pet has a pinched nerve in her spinal cord. It could mean something is pressing on it…or she is becoming paralized. It could just need some vet checking and ex rays. I would not let that go.
Good luck friend

julie brader Hello Cheryl…..just to carry on from what Catherine has said. This could be more than a trapped nerve. It could be a tumour thats just grown enough to start causing symptoms. Again agree with Catherine she needs to see a Vet to find out whats going on.
Good luck!
She’s a 4 year old German shepherd and the puppies are three weeks old
I have a golden retriever 11 years male a chow lab mix 15 female and pit bull mix 6 female they all get along without any issues but the pit bull doesn’t get along with any dogs outside of the house so I would like someone opinion about my rescue dog pit bull 2 female friendly keeping her in her own room with access to side back yard area walking her daily and socializing with other dogs be ok ?

julie brader Hello Eddie, I don’t quite understand the question….but I think you mean separate your pitbull from the other dogs in your house? Give her her own room with outside access to the yard?
This would be ok but I think you might run the risk of upsetting the harmony between the 3 of them. Your pitbull may end up jealous and feeling left out. She could turn on the other two maybe. She would certainly miss them. All you could do is give it a try and see.
I don’t know if your pitbull would ever be able to socialise and be friendly with other dogs at 6 years old, she could be too set in her ways now. Maybe you could muzzle her and see how that goes too…..the last thing you want is another dog bitten…..
You sound a very responsible owner and I hope it all works out for you. Good luck.

Eddie Eidinger I met the new dog 2 year old might not get along with the 6 year old I would keep the 6 year old Pitt with the golden and lab chow mix they get along fine but she probably wouldn’t get along with the new dog so I was going to keep the new dog by it self
-
julie brader Oh I see lol….yes that would be fine I’m sure. Be careful your pitbull doesn’t come face to face with your new dog though ….but I’m already sure you won’t ?
Good luck with the new dog!

PK Dennis I think you will get tired of this arrangement very quickly. After a few day if one or two of the dogs think they need to get to the other dog(s) you will have a dangerous situation. One second of not paying attention. One visiting friend that doesn’t understand the consequences of opening a door and you will have an out-of-control situation.
And these are all BIG dogs. You won’t be able to just pick up one of the dogs to end the fight.
I have fostered dogs that wanted to kill smaller dogs (one of my own dogs!). Every precaution was taken — two doors/gates between the dogs. The aggressive dog was harnessed and had to always drag a leash for me to step on (these were terriers that I could pick up to help end any aggression). The aggressive dog was never allowed into the yard with the smaller dogs unless there were 2 handlers that were working with the aggressive dog (1 to work with the aggressive dog, and 1 to make sure the smaller dogs did not approach the aggressive dog).
I finally got the aggressive dog to accept that MY small dog was not something for him to kill and they got to the point that they could all be in the kennel all day together. BUT he was still willing to attack unknown small dogs on sight.
In the 6 months he was with me, even being as careful as I could be, this dog attacked small dogs four times. Visitors opened a door that someone else left unlocked, the aggressive dog pushed down a baby gate that we thought was secure enough to hold him, he got over a fence that we thought was too high for him to climb, etc. Each of the small dogs attacked were bitten and bloody — and they suffered PTS. It was pure luck that determined dog never got just the right hold on the other dogs so that he could break their necks. Cause that is what he was trying to do!
So, ask yourself how dangerous is the situation. How sure are you that you can keep your dog(s) safe from the aggressor. I have fostered over 30 dogs, several of which came to me as very aggressive dogs so I had experience. And it was still very overwhelming for me at times.
I commend you for wanting to rescue another dog — just be sure you don’t endanger the new dog, or your own dog(s) in the process.
Good luck.
PK
She has her parvo shots but her sister passed away from an unknown illness and I’m just worried that she might have got It. she has been really stressed recently and she’s been staying at numerous peoples house until we get the area disinfected at her home and she has been eating a multitude of different dog food she is used to Alpo and blue diamond but at other peoples house she has been eating kibbles and bits could be what’s wrong with her and what do I need to do to help her get rid of the diarrhea is an online that before at night tell me that I needed to keep her away from food and water for 12 hours. This seems kind of confusing to me thing as whenever someone has diarrhea they need to keep fluids to stay from dehydrating I’m very confused as to what to do.

julie brader Hi Angel, you need to take her to the Vet urgently!
Never mind starve her, keep her away from water….this is a 3 month old puppy who has just lost her sibling from an unknown illness. Plus shes been here there and everywhere, fed different foods (why didn’t you get her food to send with her?) and could have picked up any infection going. …now shes got diahrrea and is vomiting?
Why aren’t you at the Vet already?!
-
Angel Medlock The puppy that my friend was talking about on this post is not mine she doesn’t think that there’s anything stomach t
messed up I was just trying to let if she kept her away from water with her being as little as she is that she could get dehydrated really fast as much as she’s been passing diarrhea -
julie brader Oh I see…..apologies to you Angel, you should have made it clear this wasn’t your puppy. Well I hope your friend takes her to the Vet urgently or she could easily lose her like her sibling.
-
Angel Medlock I’m sorry my keyboard is messed up what I meant to say I was just trying to let my friend know that keeping her away from water wasn’t going to do anything but dehydrate hurt and hurt her even more she asked 2 online vets and I told her to keep her away from food and water for 12 hours I did not believe that she should do this I was just trying to get confirmation from people that I know would give us the right information.
-
Angel Medlock The vet told them not to feed her anything or to give her any water what you
-
julie brader As our Vet Krista said…keeping water away from a puppy this young is dangerous! Shes just 3 months old…..dehydration can set in very easily at thaf age and she could die from it….shes already vomiting and has diarrhea..and already losing fluid. There is no messing about with puppies….this one needs a Vet now. I hope your friend realises that.
-
julie brader I don’t want to speak out of turn here Angel…but doesn’t your friend realise how serious this is? This pup could still have Parvo even though shes had her shots. Her sibling died…..this puppy is very ill and needs to see a Vet urgently. I don’t understand why people get dogs and then risk their lives…it astounds me
-
Molly Bitch Hey it’s my fucking dog and if you don’t like the way I’m doing shit the GET THE FUCK OFF THE POST THIS IS FOR SERIOUS HEARTFELT ANSWERS ONLY. If you have the money to send me to take my dog to the vet then by all means send it to me and I will take her because I had 4 dogs, my MEDICAL dog my husbands hunting dog, a dog that has been with me for 3-4 years, and this new puppy that was a rescue now then you don’t know the WHOLE STORY SO BACK THE FUCK OFF BECAUSE MY MEDICAL DOG WAS POISONED AND MY DOG THAT I HAVE HAD FOR 3-4 YEARS HAD TORN OFF HIS TOE NAIL AND SO I TOOK THE HUNTING DOG AND HIM TO THE FUCKING VET TO GET THEM TREATED AND SAFE THEN I GOT MY PUPPY AND NOW SHE IS DOING THIS SO BACK THE FUCK OFF AND DON’T JUDGE BECAUSE YOU CAN’T SAY SHIT ABOUT ANYTHING!!!
-
julie brader No need for the abuse. You asked for advice on here. You got it.
-
Angel Medlock Very rudely I might add. Also you were the one who called her out on what you seemed to believe was wrong. We asked for sincere heartfelt advice and your first comment was very sarcastic and rude.
-
Molly Bitch EXACTLY I don’t see how people like you are allowed around animals at all. My dogs would all bite you if they met someone so rude and judgemental
-
Angel Medlock What you have to understand is there is a lot more to the story than meets the eye. People are trying to poison our dogs my beagle lab mix as well. You made it sound as if we aren’t doing anything at all Molly has taken her dogs to the vet several times her vet I’ll as of this moment is incredibly steep. She loves her fur babies and treats them like her children. I can attest to this because her puppies visit me everyday. You almost make it sound like she doesn’t take care of them, but you’re seriously mistaken.
-
Angel Medlock And Cleopatra has been to the vet test came back negative for canine distemper, adenovovirus type two, parainfluenza, and the parvovirus that is why we tried searching online to see what could be wrong. Before you assume we don’t take care of our animals.
-
Angel Medlock That and we wouldn’t be searching online for help if we didn’t care.
-
Molly Bitch Hmm i’m blocked really this lady shouldn’t have stuck her nose into my business nice try though you wanna block somebody then block the one that wants to start the attitudes and sarcasm crap BY THE WAY MY DOG IS FINE SO DON’T RUN YOUR MOUTH WHERE IT AIN’T WANTED PEACE OUT
I am so very sorry to hear this. How sad for you.
If she was bleeding like that it sounds like some sort of poison…..possibly Rat Poison. You wouldn’t know for sure unless you had a necropsy carried out by your Vet though.
thanks very much. unfortunately we already bury her.
