I’m not an expert on this and don’t want to be but when this happened to Badger I didn’t find a lot of information on the web… especially when it comes to small dogs. Typically, a dog depending on their size will be bit either on their nose/face, leg or chest/neck. It’s entirely possible you...

While we all hope our furkids lead long and healthy lives there are those sad occasions when we are faced with a health crisis we have no experience dealing with. It's scarey because our furkids have a difficult time communicating with us... at those times it's comforting to be able to discuss...
OK, Buddy is doing well. He is up and able to walk with the usual wobbly "drunken" walk that is typical of recently downed dogs. Aparently he did not want to stay in the crib with Johanna and Pork Chop, so he chewed through the solid wood bars in the crib, then busted through a gate and squeezed...
Hello Friends, I know I haven't been here (again) in forever, but I honestly do miss the interaction and those of you who still remember us. I just have gotten so busy, that I never have time to play on the internet and do the fun things I used to be able to do. I think about this place all...
I have started new thread because I feel Angel is not doing well. It is so up and down. She is 14 1/2 and collapsing and twitching as I posted earlier. She is also having blank out moments where she does not know where she is. I have spent the entire afternoon holding her and crying as I sit by the...

Oliver spent the day at the vet. He was neutered, vaccinated, heartworm tested, lyme disease tested and micro chipped and received a full exam. Everything went great. The heartworm and lyme tests came back negative!:cheer: I was a little worried. His surgery went well. He is home now and...
I was thinking about purchasing this pup(she has one blue eye and one green eye which you cant see in the photo). How do I know how big it will get? I'm really looking for a mini(under 12 pounds)..I think she'd be around 3 months old now. I noticed that she had red eyes as well..what could...
I am going insane here. Precious has had 2 sores that will not heal. I have talked to the vet about them of course amd she has been on a few ointments to help with healing. The sores are on the inner part of the legs, since her legs do not bend fully the skin is contantly rubbing together when she...
I live in a southwest suburb of Illinois and I wonder if anyone has a recommendation for a holistic vet. Thanks
I haven't posted here in a while but I was wondering if anyone has any ideas what might be going on with Daisy's paw. The area in between her toe pad and the main pad on her front left foot is pink and swollen. She is limping a little because of it. I can't see anything stuck in it. I will be...
You have probably all heard of the Peanut Butter recall by now. I am curious about whether dogs can get salmonella. The reason is that we have a jar of the peanut butter with the affected code on it. I give Josh and Auggie peanut butter when I do their nails as a treat and it keeps them busy while...
I'm wondering what's wrong with my dog Bailey lately? 3 months ago, he had his first ever dental cleaning. He was put under anesthesia and they polished his teeth. They came out a nice, brilliant, clean white! I was very happy. Well, I noticed after trying to brush his teeth post procedure,...

Carmen, my beautiful 10 year old mini dapple has been sick since early Monday morning. I heard her hacking during the night and thought she was trying to throw up but found nothing. When I got up in the morning she was lethargic and refused her morning treat. Her tummy was hard. Called the vet...
He went outside to do his doggie business and down the ramp when I went to let everyone in Willy and Buddy were the only ones who didn't come in and I thought nothing of it because if they don't come in they just want to sit in the sun.Soon after Buddy was barking outside,I came out and Buddy...
In the last few weeks Digger has started squinting once in a while on walks and even lagging for brief periods (with Darin, I haven’t experienced it, but he’s told me it’s happened a few times) and he’s even heard him whimper a couple times. Yesterday I came home & went in the backyard to meet the...
It happened so fast I didn't even have time to blink. Saturday night we are on the couch watching TV and Mousse was already claiming his spot. I sat down and knew that some of the fur was under my leg, but that has happened before...so I didn't pay it much attention and neither did he. 10-15 mins....
My sister's dog Molly the other night threw up 7 times and was really droopy...so off to the emergency vet seeing it was at mid-night. They gave her 3 shots and some fluids and said it sounded like she had fluid in her chest. That is all my sister told me, but she doesn't pay attention and...
