I’m sorry but there is not enough information to recommend anything other than to treat this as an emergency and recommend that go immediately to the closest vet hospital or your vet.
Canine Neuter – Jax’s Story
Treatment Cost (USD): $498.20
At around 7 months old, Jax began showing signs of anxiousness and stubbornness, and he started "humping everything." Jax's veterinarian recommended neutering - along with regular exercise and consistent discipline - to reduce his anxiety and sexual acting out.

Maria Simonova He is 8 months old. This morning he has vomitted everywhere twice, then later on was very drowsy on his walk. After about 4pm he ate a bowl of food and starting shivering/shaking and breathing small fast breaths. He then stopped shaking a little but has still continuous small faster breaths than usual. What could be the reason this has happened?

Krista Magnifico There are literally hundreds of things that can cause this. I’m sorry but an examination is needed to help narrow the long list.

Krista Magnifico Hello Ed,
I am sorry but the site was down for upgrades. It was down much longer than expected.
I would always recommend that you stick with a reputable manufacturer like Nutramaxx. Unfortunately these are nutriceuticals, which are not overseen or mandated by the FDA so you are never really sure what you are getting unless you buy a respected brand. Nutramaxx products (most of them) are available OTC. Sorry for the delay
I Have An American Bulldog Who Is Almost 2 Years Old. Despite Training, He Is…
I have an American Bulldog who is almost 2 years old. Despite training, he is very aggressive towards other dogs. He was attacked by a pit bull, on our property, before he was a year old and every since will not tolerate any other dogs or any kind of animals for that matter. We have paid quite a bit for training to try and help him socialize but after a while he is back to his old self. No one will board him and we can’t take him anywhere that has a lot of people or other animals. He’s great at home and wonderful with our children, so I am at a loss s to what to do. He also has pretty bad hip problems and is in pain a lot if he gets a lot of exercise. I love him so much, as does my family, but I want to do the right, humane thing. Help.

Madelyn Fischer Hello, as an extreme animal lover, I say no, try to train and comfort as much as you can, but I don’t know you and I can’t tell you what to do. That’s the last case scenario. Good luck!

Madelyn Fischer Hi Krista, I totally agree.

Crystal Williams We have done two extensive training courses for his aggression . One two week program and one five week, away from home program.

My dog was breathing really hard when I got home, expresses pain towards her rear end, won’t let me touch her tail, is gassy, threw up earlier and it had a quarter of an unchewed rawhide bone in it, now she’s very lethargic, walking around in pain, her breathing is shallow and is having spasms on her bed, she’s an otherwise healthy 3 and a half year old catahoula American bulldog mix…..

Anonymous This sounds like a potential blockage. Please get your dog to the vet NOW…DO NOT wait on this. Blockages and obstructions are usually fatal if not handled quickly.
A Few Months Ago, We Adopted Two Pups From The Same Litter. They Are Blue…
A few months ago, we adopted two pups from the same litter. They are blue heeler/ Victorian bulldog mixes and they are the loves of our lives. Well they got into a few pretty bad fights, and we figured that they were just puppies and were just playing around. Well one day, they got into a HUGE fight to the point that one was dripping blood. From that point on, we have had to keep them separated- one of them is in the cage constantly. This is not fair to us or them, considering they are cattle dogs and shouldn’t ever be confined to such a small area so often. Plus it is nearly impossible to potty train them like this. So now we have two dogs who potty everywhere and fight with one another if they’re ever near each other. We desperately need help!

PK Dennis Sad to say, this if a common occurrence when you adopt two males from the same litter. Either they grow up to be totally dependent on each other and can never be separated, OR they are in constant contention. How old are they? Have they been neutered? If they are over 6 months old they need to be neutered. This will help reduce the aggression.
However, it is not the cure. You need to find a behaviorist NOW! Don’t just pick any dog trainer – look for one that can come to your home and work with you there. Or one that specializes in aggression cases such as this. And sad to say – the only answer may be that you have to find one of the boys a new home. They may have developed such a dislike of each other that they will never live comfortably together.
You do desperately need help! But it is far beyond the scope of this forum. You need hands on help from a professional that can see your dogs and figure out what triggers the aggression. And in the future – remember – never get 2 puppies at one time!

Ash Scism They are almost a year old and have appointments scheduled to get fixed. You response is very insightful, but I do have one issue. One of them is a female. Does this make any difference? Thanks.

Anonymous littermate syndrome – the issue you’re experiencing – has nothing to do with sex. it has to do with raising two puppies of the same age together and not giving them time apart for training and socializing.

Anonymous and i agree with PK, this NEEDS to be handled at home. anyone giving you further advice online is being reckless. you need someone in your home, watching your dogs interact. until this can happen, continue crating each dog separately and rotating which has freedom in the house. this will help you to keep them safe from each other. every fight will get worse, every interaction will escalate, and you may end up with a dead dog if you continue to allow them to be around each other.
could be allergic to flea medicine…
In some cases it is a tail fold pyoderma or anal sacs or allergies. Your vet can help identify which.
