Well for now she only wants to be in the master closet. So guess there is no harm in that. :( I am relocating her crate to not be in front of a sliding glass door... Just in case a storm came and I wasn't home. That would be terrifing.

My trainer told me by coddling her etc is making her think it's ok to be frightened. :( My question, does it get any better? Or is this a forever thing?

My stage IV Agility Trained Shih Tzu has recently decided for some reason that she is scared of thunder, lightning and rain. Honestly, there was no "exact" moment that would of set this in so I'm at a loss. Now, when it even rains but definately worse when it's thunder and lightning she runs...

Well this morning is no better. I got her to lick a few laps out of my cup of water last night but that was it. All night she was "smacking" her mouth (I am assuming trying to get moisture). This am I still had some of that ID food from the vet and tried to get her to eat that and nope. Just...

She is pretty hairy so pulling her scruff isn't easy. It is very "loose" though but honestly have never noticed otherwise. Thank you everyone. I guess we will be heading to the vet if she doesn't start drinking water tonight.

My shih tzu (18lbs) started having an upset stomach late Friday night (middle of the night). She has gotten worse and then better. I believe this is a result of her eating a few drops of Muffin Batter from the floor with blueberries in it but am not 100% sure. My vet called in some...

I don't have a costco membership. I think I'll try the small bites then and see if it works better with her tummy, etc. Thank you!

What is the Kirkland?

I have an active 2 1/2 year old Shih Tzu. She does agility 4 and keeps me on my toes. But we do have our "down Days". Recently I posted a thread about her having some "tummy" issues and her liver enzymes being elevated etc. We'll she got better but we are retesting her enzymes to make sure...

SO glad you contacted the BBB about him. He should be shut down, not a bajillionaire. Yes, but that was awhile ago, guess people don't care what is reported against someone, all they want is the idea of a mini dal. And he's basically the only one who has them. That is why he continues to...

The guy's name is Gene! I live in Ga and about 7 years ago at least, I got "suckered" into purchasing a Dal from him! I actually went down to the location and picked up my mini dal that I named Teton (After my deceased step brother that loved Dal's). We'll I only had Teton for a few months...

You know I did alot of reading tonight on the internet and when I googled, "What would make my dog's liver enzymes elevate"... it kept taking me to problems with EVO food. Lovie is on Evo dry kibble and Innova can. She gets about 3 tablespoons of can a day and about 1/2 a cup of Evo, low cal...

Day 2. Lovie is doing alot better but that is probably b/c of the IV fluids and meds. I am really hoping it was something she ate but she will have the bloodwork/Liver enzymes retested and we'll go from there if they are still not at a normal range. Thank you for all the well wishes.

We'll we are home finally. Lovie received IV fluids, CBC, Electrolytes, GHP, Famotidine Injection for dirrhea, Anzemet injection for anti-nausea, Metronidazole pills to be taken for 5 days at home, RC K-9 Low fat RX canned food till Monday (limited per day too) Her ALT (see below) liver...

This morning Lovie starting vomiting non stop about 8 times at home, then twice in the car. After talking to the vet we figured out that she might of eaten one of the "lawn" mushrooms that are in our yard. They feed off of "Tree stumps, old mulch and animal waste".. It's the only thing we can...
