Not sure how talked about it is, but I would never again give Proin to a dog. It is used for urinary incontinence, but has horrible side effects. One alternative, estriol, is on back order, but available through compounding pharmacies. Female dogs that have been spayed can develop estrogen...

I use otomax when things get bad, clears it up in a day or 2.. keeping it dry is key

She was put on desamethasone x1 in the am, and the diazepam is what the vet said to up to x2 pills of 2mg in the am and pm. I give her 1 diazepam 1st thing in the am, and then try to hold till about noon or 1 for the next, then 1 at about 6pm with dinner and the other before bed. So basically...

They just don't get enough Sun... The hair usually grows back in, but all black. And the skin will turn black before the hair grows back in. More common in some breeds then others. It's why you'll see Bullys laying in the Sun. It stinks that it happens, but isn't "harmful".

Our almost 11yo Bully was just diagnosed with IVDD, she had been having issues for a week, and it was thought to be something else. After that S#!$ty Vet, we saw someone else who diagnosed her. She was given an injection that knocked her out for the night, and then put on a muscle relaxer and...

She's been on/off Benedryl, as needed, for probably 3 years or so. We're in Cleveland, OH, was very mild winter, and trees are blooming, so seems the benedryl helps with itchiness and such. The red ears come and go, so don't think it's the benedryl. No other variables as far as food or...

Almost 11 yo has had on/off red ears.. It's just the skin, no discharge, and seems no discomfort. Almost like it's from hypertension. Seems her rope is red also. She's been on same food for couple years with no problems. Not sure if it's seasonal allergies or not.. She gets a Benedryl x1 a...

Hard to tell from the pics, but usually SFA, the skin will be almost black underneath.. My pup got it years back, and when the hair grows back it'll be black.. She's a full brindle, with black patches bi-laterally from the SFA, 1 year and then the next..

Anyone use Reglan for GERD?? Have 10 yo who usually gets Zantac x2 day and is ok for most part. On vacation, so daily routine is off a little as far as walks and such. Seems to have increased GI issues, gerd, constipation. Added pumpkin to the kibble. Have Reglan from previous script, and...

BEWARE... Dec 30th, day before NYE.. a big night for people to go out and party.. about 6:30pm, after most people would be home from work, an innocent, petite, young girl about 22yrs old, came knocking on my door.. she said she was looking for some friend of hers who lived in "a house that...

My 10.5 yo female is VERY OCD... every night she eats, we do dishes, wife takes a shower, then we she comes out, our Bully has to have play time with Daddy.. a good 20-30 mins of fetch, tug.. she'll sit there and bark and bark and bark..

watch every episode of Dog Whisperer that has a bulldog in it..

pull the water about 2 hours before bed.. also, I HIGHLY suggest getting pet insurance, and frequent this website daily, you'll need all the information you can get if new to the breed..

So, they did do an xray finally? sorry if I missed that post. Is the powder someone talking about Forta Flora, a probiotic? Sounds like you need to keep your pup on a short leash, especially since they have a behavior like this. I'd also suggest getting the standard OTC meds so that you have...

Our 10.5yo girl,most likely has a UTI.. She's been peeing alot outside, and piddled a couple spots inside, which seems to be a reddish tinit.. Question is, we have some fresh Cephalexin, should we just start giving it to her without a Vet trip?? I gave her a dose tonight and was going to give an...
