It could be mange. Get her to the vet for a skin scrape to determine the cause.

She does not have worms or fleas. Her skin doesn’t look irritated and she has been eating the same food since we have had her. I was just wondering what this could be and what I could do about it to help her hair.

Ashley Schauner I read that mange is contagious and I have 3 other dogs. None of them losing hair like her. Do you think it could be her losing her puppy hair to grow in the adult hair?

Anonymous There are two types of mange.
Bald patches are not normal.

Anonymous I’m sorry, Charlie, but the picture didn’t upload. If your mouse has any sudden physical or behavioral changes, he should be seen by your vet.

jen Hohman Post author Hi,
Thank you for getting back to me so quickly. The blood spatter was on the outside of the litter box. I could see no traces of blood in her urine. Is it okay if I just observe her for 24 hours ? -
jen Hohman Post author I will do That. Thank you for your help.

jen Hohman Post author Rugrat is urinating normally, although the urine is a clear yellow. It turns out she was a little constipated. I gave her som maple flavored gel to help get her GI tract back to normal

Diedra Cardamone Call your local vet and see what advice they can offer. They may have a staff member who can house sit and check in.

Brittany sullivan I just need some advice help n e thing..
-
Andrea Cox Advice is to get this animal the hell away from any other animal for a very long time. You are the responsible party here and you managed to get your injured dog in another fight!
-
Brittany sullivan No it’s my brothers dog and my dog it’s mom and daughter
-
Brittany sullivan I am asking for dog owners no I did not manage to let them get in a fight they got in a fight cause randomly they don’t get along
-
Sarah My advice would be to get to the vet asap again. Then keep the dogs separated at all costs. If that means revoking one, the. So be it. I would also consider dog training and a behaviorist for both your sake and the sake of the dog. This is a very serious situation and you need to treat it as such. You need to be extremely responsible and diligent about this. If you can’t live this dog like a family member, the. Find her a home where they can. She looks to you as her pack leader- safety is included in that description. Pleas see the vet and find a trainer and a behaviorist. Please.

PK Dennis Take her back to the vet to make sure she is getting enough meds, etc.
Females will fight to the death. It is your responsibility to make sure these dogs NEVER have an opportunity to fight again.
-
Anonymous And why are you allowing them to coexist? You should be crating and rotating which dog is out at any given time. It is YOURS and your brother’s job to prevent this from happening.
-
PK Dennis I have to point out that there is NOTHING RANDOM about why and when dogs fight. You are just not experienced enough to spot what is setting these 2 off. Are they both spayed? Do it if the answer is no. Until you can get a behaviorist in to spot the problem, and train YOU and your family in how to fix it you have to keep these girls apart. If you can’t afford a behaviorist that will come to your home to work with you then you have to find a new home for one of these dogs. Seriously.

Anonymous Clean it up IMMEDIATELY. Redirect when he starts to eat it. Don’t leave him in the yard by himself and supervise closely (you should do this anyway). I would talk with your vet to make sure he’s eating a proper diet for his breed and age, as well.
-
PK Dennis This is just something that puppies do, especially if they come from puppy mills.
The only thing that truly works is getting to the poop before he does. Take him out to poo on a leash and move him away from h I should stool before he can eat it, and then pick up and dispose of it so it isn’t available later.
He will most likely grow out of this behavior.

My 1 year old cat has been diagnosed with FLUTD last night. They gave her fluids and a pain med, along with prazopan (is that right?) I haven’t noticed her having went pee yet since they empties her bladder…. Is this something I should be concerned about?

For how long has this gone on?
This could be medical. Have you taken your cat in to check for a UTI? If not, this should be step 1. Take a fresh urine sample with you, if possible.
This could also be behavioral. Is your cat stressed? Do you have two or more litterboxes (one per cat plus one), and does your cat use any of them? Have you tried different litter types? Has your schedule changed suddenly, or is someone new in your life? Could your cat be bored? Do you use room sprays and scents that might bother him? Do you have other animals in your home, and could any of them be picking on him? How about people – do you live with any other people, and could they be harassing or otherwise mistreating him when you’re not around?
