She has sores in ears & swollen neck & face. Could this be strangles? Ears are oozing and pup is lethargic. I have limited income for vet and would like to walk back in with an idea. It reads like some descriptions of Strangles, just backwards from how I read it.

The dog is a six month old Lhasa apso and what she did have for a day was she lifted the leg up a few times it was the back leg and then she started to put it down the next day and is running and jumping up to my wast and jumping up and down from the couch.

My dog has these things on him HELP !!!

Hello. I recently got a dog by a woman who said she could no longer take care of her. The lady said that she also thinks the dog is pregnant. About 3 weeks later her abdomen had grown and her nipplez were easily seen under her fur. I really thought she was pregnant but yesterday I noticed she was licking herself and she was bleeding. Later a male dog came to her. Nothing happened though. Was this her gaining weight because of regular meals and she’s in heat or is there some pregnancy complications

10 week old treeing Walker got stepped on by larger dog and barely puts her toes on ground but she can hold up her leg can’t get to vet for few days what’s the best pain management until I can see what’s wrong

For how long shall I isolate my parvo puppy from her younger mate? She has her own room with a balcony upstairs, while the other pup lives downstairs. She’s sick from last Monday and I’m planning to isolate them for at least 1,5 week more.

My dobe bitch spent last week at my MIL’s home, and throughout that week my MIL fed her Beneful rather than the food we asked her to feed. This…is a problem, and one we will be discussing with her at another time.

However. As a result of this lovely, boundary-free vacation eating nothing but the equivalent of Big Macs for a week, she will not go back to her regular food unless we add enticements. I need her eating what i give her, when i give it to her, without exceptions. Normally this isn’t a problem – she’s trying to get us to give her that lovely, delicious junk food. She is healthy, so this isn’t a health-related problem. She’s just being a stubborn brat. 🙂

My question is this: what is the quickest way to get her back on her normal food? My husband is less than cooperative with my eat-it-or-lose-it method of training, wondering if anyone can suggest anything else. For the moment she is absolutely refusing plain kibble. The most I will do for her is add warm water, which I do for dinners anyway. She won’t touch breakfast at all.

Any suggestions? 🙂

my 17 year dog has had problem with his back legs for a while now they have got worse and he is finding it hard to get up and keeps falling over

My 8 pound chihuahua licked my grape popsicle 4-5 times and I’m very worried. Please tell me he’s going to be okay. I don’t know what to do.

Any toxicity of mineral oil to dogs? (this would be used in low concentration to create garlic extract to spray lawn to repel mosquitoes)
