Our sweet Meaty has had THREE incidences in his 8 years where something (?)** stung him, and his face swelled quickly, which we all know can lead to the throat closing. Each time, we gave him Benadryl immediately and RUSHED him to the closest emergency vet. Thank God, his throat never...

He once flew into a closet and stayed there long enough for me to walk into it and hold out my arm. He flew to me and perched ON MY ARM! I thought it would be neat if he actually did land on my arm...until he actually did it. It scared the crap out of me. He just sat there looking at me with...

We are expecting a litter the 23rd ( next week) and I've seen where a lot people use travel incubators, but I don't have the funds for that in my budget at the moment (I've spent most of my budget on supplies, food and ect getting ready and didn't even think about how to get the pups home). I...

They say that once in a lifetime, every dog owner gets to live with, be with, love with their dog soulmate. Sherman was my dog soulmate. We lost him to cancer and Cushings disease this past October...his passing was devastating to us, although at 10, and with his illness, we knew our time...

Piper likes snow, she hops like a bunny in it and sticks her nose in it. She doesn't seem to mind cold weather as long as there is no wind. I worry and call her in while she's still playing. I worry she can get stolen even though we have a wood fence and they only have access to the backyard we...

Our 4 year old EB underwent soft palette surgery last week. I took her in because she was all of sudden wheezing. (something I had never heard before from her) So they recommended the soft palette surgery. The surgery went fine. We brought her home that night and 2 days later the mailman...

So while I was making dinner jack and Brutus were playing. Nothing to rough as I keep an eye on him to make sure he doesn't get too worked up and I noticed jack looked like he wanted to heave so I got him outside but as we got out there he just collapsed and kind of arched his back made a...

Jack started having UTI symptoms yesterday so I took him to the vet today and just as I thought,he has a UTI. Antibiotics given, he should feel better soon. While being examined, the vet found what she called "a significant" heart murmur. She said it is extremely loud for a 9month old puppy and...

Well my first help post....my 4 month old bully, Rosco, that just came home a little over a week ago has done great. He wasn't sent with any food and I didn't know as much as I do now so I immediately fed him Orijen and nature variety raw. He's been doing great on it, stools were a little lose...

Hi guys, my wife was talking with someone who has a EBD and they basically said that it wasn't a good idea to travel long distances to go and get one as they have difficulty breathing due to their squishy faces and they could die. I'm calling bull on this one as I haven't read anywhere where it...

So I have a 1 year old English bulldog who has had many issues with her eyes. She was diagnosed with distichia and on top of that she normally has pretty dry and irritated eyes, which we give her eye drops for daily. About 4 months ago she got cherry eye and it went away on it's own in about a...

So to get to the short of the story, found a tick on Stella Tuesday night on the back of her neck and removed the tick using tweezers (full body came out, nothing left behind). Not sure how long the tick was on there for but if I had to guess I would say 36 hours max. Fast forward to...

Well this started about 2 days ago, and unfortunately our internet was out w/the storms we were having... Wally started acting weird, chewing on his paw continuously… and when I finally got a look it was super red and swollen. I gave him some benadryl and put some vetericyn on it… that night...

I got home last night and my husband doesn't tell me until we are getting ready for bed that Fezzik ate about a 1 inch raw onion from a sandwich. Even though we never feed him from our plate except maybe the occasional raw fruit or veg he has taken to launching himself towards us while we eat. I...

Any advice on tail amputation surgery would be greatly appreciated! I am so nervous! Otis will be 5 at the of the month. We have had numerous tail pocket infections that we can't get rid of! He started with some aggression issues (we think due to the pain) but started seeing a behaviorist. I am...

I have a 3 yr old male bully. After about a year, he occasionally threw up after eating (often inhaling his food, not chewing it). I started feeding him very small amounts at a time and usually wetting the food. That helped. But he also throws up if he gets worked up and runs around a lot. He's...

What is the hottest temperature you will walk your bully in? I just took Fezzik for a walk and I think we overdid it. He was making noises I have never heard from him before and breathing and snorting hard. It is 75 out and i think we did 1.25 miles. He is fine now that he is inside with ac and...

Winslow is FINE, just want to start off with that. This is about my neighbor's bull mastiff. I'm having a really hard time with this. On Thursday, my neighbor called me to borrow a hose to wash off King, who they found covered in his own vomit and feces. They carried him down in a sheet, he...
