Hi, we cannot diagnose what is wrong with your dog….but we can tell you she is showing symptoms of pain and distress.
Please take her to a Vet, she needs medical attention quickly. I hope shes ok.

My Husky Is 5 Months Old So He Is Still In An Awkward Growing Stage…
My husky is 5 months old so he is still in an awkward growing stage. His ears and snout are fully developed like an adult dog, but the rest of his body is still growing. He has all husky features such as pointy stiff ears, blue almond-shaped eyes, big bushy tail, little husky-like paws, and he runs very fast and light on his feet. He has a husky mask pattern on his face, but his pattern on his body is blotched with black and white? Very confused. I thought maybe he was just a piebald husky, but lots of people are saying he’s mixed? Not sure. Can someone help me out? 🙂

Anonymous unfortunately that photo only shows his face and nothing useful of his body, but based on your description it sounds like he has a splash coat: https://www.google.com/search?q=splash+coat+husky&rlz=1C1CHFX_enUS443US443&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwj6k_iqgO3KAhVMGT4KHZ1yCUgQ_AUICCgC&biw=1680&bih=935

PK Dennis It is almost impossible to tell the DNA makeup of a dog without DNA testing. And even then, the results may be pretty vague. For $80 you can do a Mars Wisdom Panel that will tell you if your dog is mostly one breed or another, but other than that it can be disappointing.
I have used the DNA test 4 times and each time the results have helped me understand the personality of the dog I was testing.
Seems like you have a good handle on what you dog may be – but if you have the money, DNA testing doesn’t hurt!
My Dog Jumped Off The Couch. I Think When She Landed She Broke Her Nail…
My dog jumped off the couch. I think when she landed she broke her nail off or split her pad. It’s bleeding a little. I tried a warm wash cloth but she didn’t like it. Anything else I should do?

Dawn Ferara, DVM Is it still bleeding? If it’s the nail push corn starch into the nail. If it’s the pad then apply pressure with a dry washcloth or paper towel. She isn’t going to like it but it needs to be done. I would take her to the vet tomorrow.
Good Luck

I got a 9 week old puppy five days ago. I have to return her due to noise complaints in the apartment. Do you think she will have a hard time going back to her mom dog and littermates?

Anonymous she should be fine, particularly if the breeder is an ethical one. she’ll be placed in another home. thank you for returning her rather than putting her in a shelter, though.

debra yuhasz I don’t know if this is strangles, but it sounds like the right treatment for any number of things. Taking her to your vet is the best idea ever.

My 3 year old German Shepherd has always had these issues: Excessive water intake, Scarfs down his food in seconds, Will not gain weight, Urinates and Defecates in the house and seems un-trainable, He constantly paces and just wont set still unless he is kenneled and he will still do circles and pace in his cage if he does set still out of it its for a minute at most, He recently though lost some hair on his stomach in a larch patch close to his chest.

Anonymous get his kidneys checked with an ultrasound. get a full urinalysis done as well as bloodwork. we had these symptoms in our first dobe, and it turned out he had something called renal displaysia – his kidneys were underdeveloped. eventually he went into renal failure after a bout of dehydration.
-
Shelby Allen How long could a dog live with Renal Displaysia? And those tests are under way waiting until next paycheck and I am taking him in just wanting to be prepared for something exactly like what your saying.

Hamster Beagles do what Laura says i think thats a good idea
-
Anonymous your dog has already outlived mine, so i can’t really give an accurate estimate.
-
Shelby Allen I was only asking since he is 3 I am just looking for some hope that thats not it although its really the only thing that has made any sense. He goes in Friday for tests this is more just a form of support in a sense I am preparing myself for what the answers could be at first I thought the worst thing would be diabetes so hearing this is pretty concerning. Another thing about him that would lead me to believe that correct me please if I am wrong though, he was the runt….Would that be more likely to give a dog that diesese?

Anonymous though, according to the folks at UPenn, it CAN be the reason a dog doesn’t develop properly. that’s what happened to our boy. he didn’t develop properly, was the smallest at birth, etc.

Dawn Ferara, DVM It does sound like a reaction to his vaccinations. If he is not feeling better by tomorrow I recommend taking him back to the vet.

Hello there. I am no expert but i still want to try to help you out. First of all, you didnt mention if it’s her first litter or not. Second, i think that the dog’s health, in some cases, is most valuable for a diagnosis than her age (as a number). I’ve seen 3 y old dogs in a awful shape and i’ve seen 11 y old dogs running after a surgery for pyometra. Crazy. That being said, if she’s fit and fine and healthy i think she is perfectly capable of giving birth at that age. Keep in mind she still needs to go through exams to check if everything is running smoothly. After that, you will need to protect the mother and the puppies and think about getting her spayed if you don’t want this to happen again.
Hope this helped.
Good luck!
i would get her spayed. it’s the safest for her.
