    Weight issues

    You can try the wet dog food. They seem to gobble that up like crazy. I think that will help him put on some weight. I know you are worried but maybe have a talk with you vet again and voice how concerned you are about this.

    Bad Experience

    Well about a month ago we were taking the dogs for a walk. Rocky slipped out of her harness and got loose. I have NEVER EVER been more scared in all my life. I was chasing her like crazy running all over trying to get her. It took a good 10 minutes and I finally caught her. I fell and got a huge...

    My Babies

    Yes, it was secondary glaucoma and there is a good chance it will happen to the other eye but we are doing everything possible to save it. The operation was extremely expensive. I now have a savings account just for Rocky in case her other eye needs to be removed and for emergencies. All the...

    Car Sick

    Thanks for the advice. Yes, we always have early morning appointments. They know we travel far so they book us early. We take the food and water up that day but I’m thinking maybe we should take it up the night before. The doc said we can't give them gravel since it does something to their...

    Blake got neutered

    You can put a nice cozy blanket in his cage for him while you are at work. I know it’s hard right now but your right, it is for the best. My dog had her eye removed and I was so stressed out I was throwing up. She was fine I was not, haha. But just give him lots of snuggles and he will get...

    Small boney bump on her forehead

    Well I would take her to the vets just to put your mind at ease. If it is a cyst it can be removed.

    paw cracks!

    You could try Vaseline on his paws. That should work. I would use it every day twice a day. Just before you go to bed and you dog does I would put it on since he won’t be walking and rubbing it off. You could try another vet for a second opinion. If you are not satisfied with his treatment.

    Phlegm?

    2 year old dog with weak back legs. What could it be?

    I strongly recommend you take him to the vets and get blood tests and an X ray. It is possible he broke it and it didn’t heal properly. These two tests should not be too much and ask your vet if he accepts payment plans. But in owning an animal comes responsibility when they are ill. You always...
