    When to switch....

    Hey everyone!! When we got Reggie he was on Fish 4 Dogs white fish puppy food. We continued this until 2 weeks ago when Reggie started getting an upset tummy. He didn't quite have the runs but it wasn't far off. It continued for a few days so we took him to the vet and she said, based on the...

    Bad Reggie

    Hi all, We've only been on here for a few days, and I've been scouring the site looking for other bullys that show the same behaviour as our Reggie. I think its easier if I just start a new thread, as he has quite a few issues. Info about Reggie - Age - 19 weeks Weight - Just over 14kg Age...

    Intranasal or injection vaccination?

    We took Castor to the vet today because his ears were very red and irritated, and sure enough the poor little thing was diagnosed with an ear infection. He got something called cortavance which we hope will help. Anyway, the plan was to have him vaccinated against kennel cough / bordatella...

    How to get a bulldog moving...

    I found a little trick for my neurotic & stubborn bulldog to get out of bed in the morning and in the car without taking forever. Nico and I are not morning people/dogs, but I have to get up and go to work. Every work morning for the last 2.5 years I have to nag, beg and drag Nico off the bed...

    ENTROPION and Eye problems . . .

    My Maximus suffers from Entropion of both eyes. The Opthamologist wants to do Surgery, but financially that just is not an option, plus Maximus weighs 83-lbs. and is a Surgical risk, as he is considered Obese, and therefore would not be able to withstand Anesthesia. But his (L) eye, which had...

    Help Needed! Loosing hair around tail, but is it ringworm?

    My Bully Layla is 11 years and old and thankfully has lived most of her life without many of the typical bully issues related to skin. She has only been our bully the last two years (we adopted her form a rescue). However we do know she has a long history of scooting and dragging related to...

    My dog has demodex

    Has anyone dealt with demodex. We have been dealing with it for months on and off. The only time my dog isn't irritated by it is when he goes to the vet for a dip once a week. At $40 a dip, additional charge when he needs to see the vet, its expensive. I have been told to try Ivomectin. Anyone...

    Dixie's Skin...

    I have an English Bulldog, Dixie, who is 4 years old. I have had her since she was 12 weeks old. Over the past two weeks, Dixie has developed very irritated skin. She has had a hot spot or two in the past, but this is most of her body. She has rubbed a raw spot about 5"x5" on her lower back...

    One of the first rescues that came into OTR after Sandy relocated to where we live now...

    in VA, was Luke. Some here might remember me mentioning him in a thread about drool and messy water bowl manners. "Loogie Luke"was a mess for sure. His whole face went into the bowl and every time he finished drinking he'd shake off the excess. It would fly everywhere. That made a HUGE...

    Has anyone tried wrinkle balm from the Natural Dog company (https://naturaldogcompany.com/product/wrinkle-balm/) Fezzik constantly has irritated wrinkle folds on his face from the drainage from his eyes. The drainage is clear, but I haven't found a way to prevent it yet. The only thing that I...

    Skin Issues again, Little Bald Patches

    We're having skin issues again with Betty. The first time around she was getting hotspots on her neck and had a scaly raised patch of dermatitis right above her tail. The vet gave us a 10 day course of antibiotics and steroid cream. The hotspots went away and the weird scaly patch went back...

    Anyone used sulfodene shampoo??

    Murphy has had this smell on his back for the past 3 weeks. It is truly an indescribable smell. I thought it might be his anal glands but it's not. Washed him, it went away and then it would come back. We took him to play today and one of the dog trainers smelled and said it could be...

    It always happens so fast doesn't it?

    Is it just me, or do bullys tend to decline in health more rapidly than other dogs? Even little things... for example. i ran out of the medicated powder I put in Frank's face wrinkles. I ordered some on Amazon and figured he would be okay without it for 2-3 days. Here we are on day 2 and I...
