if your vet isn’t open, i’d be seriously considering going to an emergency vet.
He’s eating and drinking normal, just sleeps a little more than usual.
Hi it is concerning the the question I asked earlier , I didn’t explain it properly I took my cat to a vet on Thursday night and he said my cat had been hit by a car and could operate from £1000 but could not say it would survive 50/50
He said it had been hit by a car and could operate for £1000 , but had a 50/50 chance of surviving , had to have it put down still trying to understand why as it looked OK

Ashley Frey We don’t have any emergency vet places around here 🙁

Anonymous does your vet have an emergency phone number on their answering service?
-
Ashley Frey Not that I know of. I did message one of my friends that works at a vet clinic to see if maybe they have one

Ashley Frey Thanks! I hope so, he’s really starting to worry me.
My dog, Sonny is acting very weird. He was fine yesterday before we went to bed. He just stands in one spot and acts like it hurts to move and he has saliva that’ll drip from his mouth. Any help is appreciated!
What’s better a large kennel or a crate to keep your dogs in while your not home?

Dawn Ferara, DVM I prefer a crate but I really don’t think it matters.

Anonymous i’m not sure of a difference…are you talking about plastic vs wire?
both of my dobes preferred plastic vari-kennels. that’s what my breeder has in her home, so they came to us already adjusted to the cave-like feel of the vari-kennel.
HOWEVER. if you have a puppy, you’d want to find one that has a barrier you can put in for housebreaking purposes.

PK Dennis I think it depends on how long you are away. If you expect to be away longer than 8 hours for an adult dog, it is better to have a kennel with access to the outdoors, and a section that is inside and warm — so the dog can get out of the sun, rain, cold.
If on the other hand you only are gone short periods of time then any type of crate will keep your dog(s) safe and comfortable while you are gone. Get them to love their crate by allowing them to go in and out when you are at home. Give them stuffed Kongs to chew when they are in their crates.
And always, always, give them a treat when they go into the kennel or crate. My boys will tear though the house to get to the basement kennel each time I say “kennel boys” cause they know I will scatter tiny treats in the kennel for them before I lock the gate.

Dawn Ferara, DVM It all depends on the dogs attitudes and they all should be fixed.

Anonymous i understand pit bulls are dog-aggressive as well as same-sex aggressive, particularly the bitches. i don’t know that i’d want to add another to the mix you already have going in your house. it could upset the balance and cause problems.
I have a chihuahua she’s about 7 years old this is the first time it’s happened to her as she fell over her body stiff and she looks like she’s having trouble breathing what can it be
My wiener dog has been dragging her rear legs. It could be a slipped disc, but I don’t know what to do.
im needing a small donation of $150 to take my dog into an emergency vet clinic. he is peeing blood, vomiting, and is very weak. he is a 7 yr old dog. a duschound. im not in town with him im out of town. im just needing help asap.
When I took it to the vet he said it had been hit by a car and he could operate from £1000 but it had 50/50 chance of surviving , so had to put it down still don’t know why as it looked OK yours puzzled
The vet tapped one side of the cat which sounded hollow then the other which sounded as though nothing there he said it was some sort of hernia
