Hello,

Many possible  reasons for this.. Either way an infection is happening and a trip to your vet is needed. Eye issues are painful and can be one serious quickly. Good luck!

Not a Vet, just looking thru the questions.. I have had Cats that would do similar to the back and tail.. it was thought to be an allergy.. some one cortisone shot later she stopped the chewing and rubbing we now give her a mild half childs dose of antihistamine.. Pets can be allergic to Fleas, Grass it is as wide as humans.. the shampoo used, it could also be a sinus flair up causing the need for the poodle to try to get the irritant out.. you might look at is there something that happens before she starts her active irritation like walk and sniffing.. rubbing face on Grass anything like that Wait for a Vet to give advice as to meds or dosages etc.. it may also be some type of scabies or other mite infestation.. I may be just missing it by a mile, I just wanted to offer my 2 cents worth..

It could be an allergy or a skin condition Iike a pemphigus however, a vet needs to examine your dog to make a proper diagnosis.

Good Luck

Hello,

It really depends on many factors. Every dog is different. Some dogs get along well with everything, while others take longer. Your dogs personalities will decide how they get along. Consult a trainer in your area if you are having problems 

Good luck

Hello JoAnne,  I realise your dog is 14 years old and an anaesthetic, as the Vet informed you may not be the ideal at her age….you cannot leave her like this.

She has a large open wound on her stomach that is not only open to infection but must be extremely painful. 

The tumour doesnt appear to be on a nipple but the underside of the top of her back leg? 

You have to take her to a Vet urgently and you need to find the funds from somewhere to do it. Care Credit might be worth looking into…or perhaps you could borrow the money from family or friends. Your dog needs a Vet and she needs one now. 

How big is your dog? around what weight? Was the brownie dark chocolate?  I think if your dog is not tiny it will be ok, maybe some shaking or throwing up.

It really depends on the size of the dog and their age and tolerance.

she is a 10 pound Maltese. she’s been acting normal, barking, playing with toys, running, and hasn’t thrown up but she is taking meds because she has Addison’s disease, so I’m not sure if that’s the reason why she is breathing heavily.

I read over a lot of links last night but I’m unsure of what to do

Is she drinking? keep her flushed with fluids. Unless this was a very dark chocolate, I think she should be okay, but keep her calm and dont let her run around. I had a dog eat a ton of chocolate, now it was a much bigger dog, and he threw up and was panting but in the end ok.
Good luck, if breathing gets worse get to a vet.

Thank you! I’m not sure if there were chips in the brownie or not so I’m not exactly sure. Also, my dog is taking meds for Addison’s disease and her breathing is odd because of that so I’m not sure about her odd breathing patterns.

Hello Carrie, there is obviously something very wrong with your dog. We can’t tell you what but he needs to see a Vet urgently.

It could possibly be a toxin or poison the way it started on his face and has spread….though it could be something else entirely. 

You need to take him to a Vet urgently. Someone on here mentioned Care Credit perhaps you could try them…but this is an emergency it seems your dog is getting worse and needs urgent treatment. 

I have 3 Labs and 2 are young and all get very jealous when I pay the other one special attention. What I do is have my own special one on one time with one and then with the other one. One of my dogs love playing frisbee so I play that with that one by himself and the other one loves playing hide and go seek with treats so I play that with him. It’s just and idea but I hope it helps ?

Have  you taken her to see a vet?  It could be allergies, it could be mange, or it could be related to other conditions.  Sarcoptic mange is more prevalent this time of year as the fox move around and look for new territories (if you are in the country).  It makes the dogs very itchy but is easy to cure with the advice of your vet and Revolution (the vet has to help you get the timing of the applications right).

Allergies are harder to deal with because it take much more effort to figure out what she is reacting to, and to heal her skin.  The first step is to get her on a grain-free diet — and that includes all treats!  Grains in her diet will slow down the process of dealing with allergies.

The only way to figure out what is going on with her is to see the vet.

To help with the itching try rinsing her with 1/3 vinegar & 2/3 water.  Be sure it gets into her skin, and then allow it to dry.  You can try witchhazel with aloe on the raw patches — pat it on with cotton and allow to dry.

And last of all, use the generic form of Zyrtec (not Benadryl) to help get her through a few days of itchiness.
