blood

This is what Finn's neck looks like after his vet visit this morning. The area was very crusty and hard, and beneath was dried blood. The reason why I took him to the vet today was because he's been so ITCHY for the past month or more. I've tried everything--switching foods, adding fish oil...

Hi again friends, Apologies for starting a new thread - I had posted this in another thread but since my question is different I was hoping to catch some more input. My boy Wilbur had a grand mal seizure 4 days ago. This is the first time I have ever experienced something like that. I have...

Hi, everyone! On Thursday morning Lucy vomited up what my vet thinks is a corn cob. I had given my grandkids some of the mini corn on the cobs a few weeks ago so it makes sense. After vomiting it up she vomited a few more times so I took her right in to the vet. He did an x-ray which showed no...

There are so many benefits to write about when it comes to using ACV, for yourself and for your pet, but I will keep this strictly canine candid. There is a very informative piece by Dr. Alicia McWatters, Ph.D., C.N.C. on the BRAGG* website. The link is included at the bottom, along with other...

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...

Greetings All, My 5 year old EBD Harley is going through some health issues and we are trying to determine what is wrong with her. I took her to my current Vet today for some tests and I think these prices are WAY too expensive. Don't get me wrong, I WILL PAY ANYTHING to keep my girls happy and...

I was referred to Texas Tripe here in Texas for their raw products. So I purchased 30lbs and started using it coming from Primal raw. I ordered 10lbs of their turkey blend, 10lbs of their beef blend and 10lbs of their wolf Run blend which is tripe, and beef blend. The beef she did ok on but it...

I took Spartacus to the vet and got him a through check out. So far, the bill is running me about $1K. Medications for his Cherry Eye and his ear infection seems to be taking most of the weight from my wallet. But he has had blood drawn as well and a few other tests. He's on three different eye...

Bella has been scratching around her ear recently. I thought she needed a bath, so I gave her one. Then I noticed there was a red blotchy spot near her ear--right outside the ear. I started spraying Vetericyn on the spot. She still scratched. Now, the red blotch turned into a sore, and I see...

Hello all, my wife and I just bought our first english bulldog named Pede. We got him when he was 10 months old and his birthday falls on Thanksgiving Day. I am also new to the board and have found some very helpful information on here. Before I ask my question I do want to clarify that we...

My Bully, Maximus, stinks! Period. And it's coming from his Tail Pocket. I usually use a wipe to clean out the tail pocket, but even with that, he stinks! I'm also finding that when I insert my finger into his tail pocket to clean around the area, the wipe comes out with blood on it. Is there...

7/20/15: Please welcome Milton! Milton found himself at a local shelter. No one came looking for him so he is now in the care of GEBR. A big thank you to Haley for busting him out the shelter! He is a little rough around the edges at the moment but nothing we can’t handle! He has a skin...

Hi Everyone, I'm new here. Maybe someone here has had the same issues. I'll try to keep it short...but no promises ;) We rescued our bully, Frankie, back in April. We were told at that time to feed him Earthborn Holistic Meadow Feast. So we did. However he always had very loose stools that...

Hello I haven't been here for a while now because my 3.5 year old male bulldog has been healthy and happy as usual. For the past year or so I have noticed " Buddy" drinks a fair amount of water each morning right before we go out to go potty. I had his routine blood work done back about a year...

Aren't you amazed at how many ways they can make us laugh or simply smile? Here's something funny: While walking home one day, Bifi suddenly lifted his right front paw. Thinking that he stepped on something sharp, I immediately checked his paw for thorns, small pieces of glass, blood, puncture...

OSPCA threatens to ‘dispose of’ 71 rescue dogs unless $100K paid I will stay quiet on my thoughts of the OSPCA it is better for My blood pressure !

10 yo girl had 2 bowel movements today that had a bloody, mucus stool today for 1st time. Stool has been consistently solid with no issues up to this point. Her 1st movement today was a 2 parter: she pooped, then strained to get another poop out. Then's when I noticed the blood.. It seems to...

I have often come to this website for advice but this past year's health problems have made me join up so I can post! My husband and I got our dog Boudreau from a breeder when he was two years old, he is now five and up until November 2014 was in perfect health. I would read all the bulldog...

Hey guys, turning to the forums for help b/c no vet in my area can seem to figure out whats wrong with my Whiskey. This is really more for Vets as i feel this is a very uncommon issue. I'll try to keep this as short as possible but include all the relevant facts. In a nutshell, my bulldog can...

She has been to the vet a few times over the last few months. A few months ago she had a large swollen mass by her upper elbow that swelled to golf ball sized. We took her in, got the Xrays and the vet said it looked like bone disease but the Sr. Vet called back to say it was some inflamation...

This week has been a humdinger. I don't even know really know what that means but i have no more energy to think of anything creative or witty. Tonight I come home from work (TGIF!), only to be welcomed by a dining room floor with several piles of diarrhea with blood in it. Panic time!!! It's...

Hello, Everyone! I never really thought to join a bulldog forum. I have owned my little (Eh who am I kidding?) Bulldog for almost 4 years. Currently we live in Japan as my husband is Military, but we actually fly to America THIS MONTH to start our lives. So a little history - GusGus is a 4...

One of my employees just came to me and told me that her boyfriend bought her a two month old Bulldog last night. She said he couldn't pass it up "because he was so cheap." I cringed, waiting for the other shoe to drop. There must be an irresponsible breeder in the area who is in it for the...

My goodness, I just solved Bella's vomiting, and I think her hot spot is going away finally. Now Bella's tail pocket is irritated. It's VERY, very tight. and she's never been a fan of cleaning. I think I failed at cleaning it as often as I should. I tried to clean it last night, and I was...

As I mentioned in a previous thread, Nelly's seizure onset was fast and traumatic. In hindsight I realized she seized 6-12 times over the course of the day, including 4 events in the hour before I brought her to the ER. Labs to this point have not identified a source so vet is recommending MRI...
