Does anybody have any information on this or has their geriatric dog been diagnosed? I've read a little about caring for elderly dogs of late since losing Cleo and Summers sudden decline in mental health. Her physical health has been great. I can't complain for her being 13 years old. A...

Summer is my 13 year old mixed breed dog (probable golden, chow, GSD, possibly something else). A few days ago she tried to get on the couch with us and didn't make it. She just seemed embarrased to me so this time when she tried I tried to help her (like many times before) and she yelped...

I've been grooming my dog of her undercoat to help shedding and I've gotten to the worst part, the tail bone, right behind the tail at the rear of her back. The rest of her fur and skin looks great but this area, when I brushed under her top fur and pull the fur up to get at it really good I...

I always make these for my family in the oven but this time it came with extras in the package. It looks like kidney, liver, heart, neck. My dogs are fed Canidae and have never eaten raw but thought I might see if they like this for a little treat. My only concern is they are probably...

I have two 11 year old cats (black cat and siamese mix) and one 3 year old cat (mac tabby). The older ones have lived with puppies before but our last puppy was about 9 1/2 years ago and since then they've been adults. They've never liked them but tollerated them. The younger cat was a stray...

My dog loves Nabisco wheat thins and I give them to her as a treat. I don't know if these are okay or if I should try to find an alternative. She loves all kinds of human crackers and I'd love to find a dog biscuit that she loves as much but haven't been able to find any that she just goes...

I'm really grasping straws here but have seen something I find interesting and wondering if it is just a fluke. Has anybody had a dog that prefered a certain breed companion over another, or even the scent of a certain breed? My dog, Summer has always been raised with dobermans. She...

Summer is due for her senior exam and I'm a nervous wreck. And, she is due for a teeth cleaning. Well way overdue in that matter. My paranoia comes from Cleopatra having her senior exam, blood panel, EKG, teeth cleaning which was really minor, no pulls or major build-up but did have benign...

I've been feeding Summer Diamond Senior dry food and since Cleo's death she completely stopped eating the dry food alone. I've been adding Purina wet food because that is what she liked when Cleo had her teeth done and I needed to feed wet temporarily and Summer liked it too. I've been adding...

I'm a new poster but I've posted pictures of Summer my 12-year-old dog. From best I can tell she is possibly part german shephard, golden and possibly part chow. She has never been an extremely active dog but since she lost her playmate almost 3 weeks ago the only exercise she gets is walks...

Hi, I'm a new member. I've had Summer for 12 years and have always been asked what she is. I have no idea. I'd simply say my precious mutt. But, after looking at some pictures on here and other places I have to say that I think she looks a lot like some of the GSD/chow X that I've seen. I...
