    Can dogs eat jalapenos?

    Positive. I've had pizza from the same place and had them once. I think I've seen dogs on TV eat some chili's or something, so I assume that jalapenos wouldn't be tooo bad for them... but either way he's okay now.

    Can dogs eat jalapenos?

    My family got a pizza and it gives 2 jalapenos on the side. We didn't eat them, just left them in the box and threw the box away. But I guess one of them fell out and Rocket attempted to eat it, but instead of just eating and swallowing, he chewed it, spit it out, and barked at it for a...

    So... why do dogs pee on things?

    I guess this goes as a question and a little story that made me wonder why. My backyard used to have a really big tree, until our neighbors asked us to cut it down, which we did. My dad decided to keep the trunk, and use it as a table in our garage (he makes things with wood, so he used it...

    How to make dogs stop barking at certain things?

    Well ever since Rocket was a pup, he's had this thing where he'd bark at the Goodyear blimp. I have no idea why. It usually comes by quite often (I think it lands and liftoffs somewhere around my area) so it becomes quite troublesome when he barks at a blimp. When we got our other dog, Bagel...

    Having a dog eat slower?

    My dog Rocket threw up twice, once 2 days ago and again today. The first time he threw up, he threw up 2 big pieces of a pig ear (my dad gave him and our other dogs them as treats). Today he threw up again, but it wasn't as bad (it was his food) so I'm assuming he's eating too fast. He seems...

    Clipping an overgrown nail

    Now, I know this is hard to believe but apparently my dog Rocket has had a nail on his foot that, well, I never noticed until a few days ago. It's not directly on his paw (more towards his leg) and it was covered by some fur. He has these on both hind legs but one seems to eb cut fine (which I...

    What weird things...

    My dog Rocket is a real twicthy dog when he sleeps. Does it every 30 minutes or so when he's in a deep sleep. He gets so into it sometimes, he may start growling or even barking, but with his mouth closed. Very funny. And my other dog Bagel lies down, but in a sort of "superman" position...

    Ahhhh Bagel Is Back!!!

    After the very very expensive numerious trips to the vet, she is back and as hyper as ever. She had to have a CSF tap as well as a couple of blood tests to determine the problem, which they narrowed down to meningitis. I have to keep her on lots of medication and the such, but she is back to...

    Meningitis in dogs.

    Anyone have any experience with this? What sorts of measures will I have to take to keep my dog well? Can it come back?

    Pet Insurance and my very sick dog.

    $2,000 for a spine tap, blood test, and the such because Bagel has symptoms of a little bit of everything. It's been getting real rough, but my dad is willing to pay for it. It's difficult to pay that much money for a procedure that may or may not find the problem as to what is making Bagel...

    Pet Insurance and my very sick dog.

    Well the vet says that she has to see a nuerologist, they have a feeling that she could have some sort of menengitis or something. Her fever is going up and down, puffy eyelids, and seems very weak. My dad doesn't want to pay for any of this, and seems to want to put her to sleep. I have no...

    Pet Insurance and my very sick dog.

    Hi, my dog Bagel has been going to the vet (3rd visit within the last week) because she has been really sick. The vets really don't know what's wrong with her, and since we had to take her to 2 different vets (one is our normal vet, the other an emergency vet since our normal hosipital was...

    Bagel's been acting a bit sick

    Sigh, just took her to the emergency vet, she has a 104.5 fever, and has to stay overnight again. Her bills are adding over $1000, within one week, and I don't know how much more we can do. But I don't want to just give up on her.

    Bagel's been acting a bit sick

    Doesn't look like she's been getting any better, her eyelids just swelled up real big. She can barely open her eyes. I'm very worried about her.

    Bagel's been acting a bit sick

    Just got Bagel from the vet, she's much more active than before, but still snapping at Rocket. I feel bad, because Rocket is happy that she is back, but whenever he goes near her, she snaps at him. I have to give her some pills, and probably go back for a checkup next week. I still wonder...

    Bagel's been acting a bit sick

    Sigh... the vets didn't really have a clue as to why Bagel was sick. They just knew she had a fever, but Bagel had symptoms that differ from having a fever. They said she's really acting disorented (which I agree, she barely opens her eyes) and that she may have a spine problem. I don't...

    Bagel's been acting a bit sick

    Bagel's been acting weird lately. She's been snapping at Rocket a lot (like whenever he comes near her, she'll growl, and if he gets too close, she'll snap at him, almost biting him). She usually gets defensive whenever she has a treat around or something, but she'll just growl at him for...

    Rocket stomach making lots of noises

    When we got him from the shelter, they weren't too sure what breed he was. It just said Shepard mix. We've been feeding him Iams at the moment as well. But I think he's doing fine, he's been running around and from the symptoms I read, he doesn't seem to have any of them.

    Rocket stomach making lots of noises

    Well of course being a parent of a dog, you always fear the worst and I've been reading on the condition known as bloat. I've read the symptoms however, and he doesn't seem to have any of them (whining, drooling, uncomfortable, restlessness). He's been sleeping, quite comfortably I assume, on...

    Rocket stomach making lots of noises

    Well, I came home yesterday night to see vomit on the floor. Since I have 2 dogs, I couldn't tell which one did it, because both were asleep at the time I came home. But when I came home tonight, there was no vomit, but Rocket's stomach has been making lots and lots of noises. I'm assuming...
