    Soft palate surgery/Nostril Surgery

    Hey everyone. We are thinking about having one or both of these procedures done for Ellie. She has very small nostrils and a very smushed face/mouth. I know it would help. My questions are what is a reasonable price for these surgeries and does anyone know of a good vet in the Cincinnati area to...

    Sudden Passing of our Big Boy Otis

    Thanks everyonefor your kind words. It is comforting to know that there are good people out there that understand this experience.On a bright note, we rescued a puppy from a kill shelter.

    Sudden Passing of our Big Boy Otis

    Our big bubba Otis passed away overnight this past Thursday. He was only 4 years old! He just had a vet visit and was given a clean bill of health. We are devastated. My wife found him sleeping under the comforter like always with his head sticking out. It looked like he was just asleep. There...

    Ellie is doing a little better. I am really wondering if the Nature's Variety is the right food. It looks as if she swallows the little kbbles whole. I hate to change their food but I have to think that could be a problem. I get the feeling that Fromm is the brand most people on here use(?).

    We have given her some generic OTC prevacid in the past. It seemed like it was working really well -then all this started. I will keep everyone posted pn her status. If anyone knows a good bulldog vet in Northern Kentucky/ Cincinnati area, let me know.

    The majority of the times she has thrown up it has been regurgitation of her food. Today it was literally 2 minutes after she ate her food. We feed our bullies twice a day. Otis is 70 pounds and Ellie is 60 pounds-they both get 1 cup 2x a day. In the past she would hock up white foam but now it...

    Thanks for the advice. We have switched to Nature's Variety Duck and Turkey(I think that is what my wife bought). We have a 15 month old son who loves to feed his bulldogs. We are really trying to separate the dogs when we feed him . They have been on Nature's Variety for a about two weeks now...

    Need help!!

    :confused:My 4.5 year old female,Ellie, has always had a sensitive stomach. A couple of months ago we switched over from Royal Canin Hypo to Blue Buffalo Basics. At first it really cut down on her regurgitation. But for the last 6 weeks she throws up at least once a day. The vet didn't know what...
