I noticed the swelling 2 days ago. It is between the one eye and upper jaw / cheek. She is 10 years old with no previous medical history. She is not exhibiting any other unusual behaviour. Her appetite is as usual. No discharge of fluid in the eye or mouth. No signs of lesions or wounds. Gums are pink. I am able to touch the area and she does not seem to be in pain. It feels hard like a stiff muscle.
PLEASE ADVISE!
Regards

My dog was attacked today by a neighbour dog. She had a nasty looking tooth mark in her side and was clearly in pain, so we rushed her to the vet. After examining her and stitching her up, the vet told us that the wound was already showing signs of infection and had been there at least 2 days. He insinuated that we were lying about the time of the attack and refused to discuss any other reasons for the infection. He put a drain in the wound and gave us antibiotics, but now I’m really worried that something else could be wrong with her. We weren’t lying! The attack really did happen only a few hours before and I noticed a mucousy discharge only minutes after the attack. Can infection set in that quickly? She was in good health and had no known wounds before today.

My dog is walking fine but was limping earlier. We think she may have jumped off the bed and landed wrong. Like I said she was limping earlier but works fine now, but when she’s standing still she keeps the injured paw up… Thoughts?

I’m 27 and have had my dog since college. He’s a 6-year-old male Cockapoo who I adore, and who is normally in great health (besides the occasional ear infection). I take him on an hour and half walk daily, feed him a potato and duck based diet, and make every attempt to give him the best care possible (regular vet check-up, shots, etc).

A couple months ago I realized he was frequently squatting to pee, but nothing comes out. He urinates normally when first let out, but then makes a ton of other squats, prolonged squats, where nothing or just a few drops comes out. At times, its almost impossible to walk at all as he will continue to squats over and over again for 30 minutes. He hasn’t had any incontinence or more than normal desire to go outside (except for every now and then, when he’ll go out, pee once, then keep squatting over and over again and want to go out soon after- but that’s not daily). However, I woke up this morning to a couple drops of blood on the carpet, which I can only assume were from his many attempts. Previously, there has been no presence of blood in his urine.

I’ve been to the vet SEVERAL times, and spent the majority of my savings and money trying to figure out what’s wrong (even with vet insurance, I’ve spent almost all I have). He has had a cystoscopy (camera inserted) to check for urethral cancer (none), full abdominal ultrasound, plenty of x-rays and blood tests done. They have ruled out bladder cancer, his blood work is normal, and the x-rays show nothing except a slightly enlarged liver (though since blood work is normal so they think the was born with it). They have ruled out a UTI, bladder stones, and just about everything else you can think of that would seem obvious. The only abnormalities are really the dysuria, mildly protruding abdomen, the appearance of a layer of fluid on the outside of his bladder, and some abnormal bacteria.

Please help. I can’t afford much more and I really love my dog.

I recently rescued an 8 month pit mix from an animal control facility. He looks a bit malnourished. He has dandruff all over his coat. I have purchased high quality wet and dry food. I would like to know if I need to add supplements to this. I took him for a walk this morning to eliminate and it all looked normal. Also, is it safe to neuter him if he is a little thin or should I wait a few weeks. Any guidance would be appreciated. Thank you!
