Patrick is a 6yr old male that loves to get all the attention he possibly can. He is a sweet, affectionate boy that loves people and is eager to please and do anything you ask him to. However, he does not want to share that attention with any other dog and he lets that be known in no uncertain...

So Millie seemed to be getting bored with Pork and Peas so I thought I would try beef frittata. She actually loves the frittata but has gotten itchy paws and a yeast infection in her tail pocket about the same time of changing food. Of course this could be a result of the new protein or not...

Hiya! I'm Penelope and I'm 6 years old. I was recently saved from the shelter and it's a good thing because I had a life threatening infection in my uterus. I had an emergency spay and am all better now. My legs are a little wonky so I'm looking for a home with no stairs and kids 12+. I'm good...

Hello, Our 1 year old English bulldog has developed a swollen and very red eye. We’ve been to our vet twice for this problem over the past 3 days. At first, our vet thought it might be pink eye and we treated it for 72 hours as that. We took him back to our vet this morning. They no longer...

I am back regarding Bella’s ON GOING “apparent staph’ skin infection that she gets one or twice every year usually between December and April. She started showing signs of reoccurring about mid April. The first thing I did was bath her using Nizoral shampoo to kill the bacteria and get the loose...

Porkchop's paws look like they are miniature overgrown toenails. His back issues are such that he can't go for walks anymore so there is no rough surface to 'exfoliate' the paw pads. His left leg sort of twists when he walks also, which the vet attributes to neuro damage due to the bone spurs...

My vet has recommended we have nasal fold excision to (1) keep down constant fold infection and (2) most importantly to help eye entropy. Melba’s eyelashes roll into her eyes due to her thick fold. Has anyone had to have this procedure and can you give me any insight? Thanks much.

Hello all, I posted awhile back about an issue that Lincoln was having with his skin. I went through a couple antibiotic treatments and countless medicated baths with no real significant improvement. He has suffered from these really strange crusty/scaly bumps on his skin ever since he was...

Hello to all, Bella my EB is starting to show early signs of a staph skin infection that she has had in the past always around this time of year.

Hey Bullie family. My Winnie has something going on that started today and I was wondering if anyone has experienced this. Possibly a spinal or neck issue. Early this morning I fed her and took her outside. She got down the deck stairs, sneezed a few times, started yelping and wouldn't move. I...

Bella constantly likes eating grass. She does it all the time. Last weekend we caught her chewing on a long grass in the yard and the next morning at 1am she puked up a rather large amount of it when we were sleeping. For the following 15 minutes or so she kept hacking almost like dry-heaving...

So my husband was giving our Ronnie a clean today and it looks like he has very red and bruised testicles. Someone is with him at all times and I don't believe it to be an injury. We have give it a good feel and he doesn't seem to be in any pain and let's us do this it's also not hot to touch...

Hello, My vet has recommended that my 10 year old female bulldog have her right anal gland removed. After 2 courses of antibiotics and an incision to drain it, the infection is still there. My vet says the gland is hard and the size of a marble. I am wondering if anyone else has had this...

Hello all. Lola’s tail pocket will always be a concern to me. I try to clean it atleast every week and when I do it’s not usually too bad. Since changing her diet from Royal Canine to Wainwright’s the red/brown colours have gone after I clean her but now it smells worse and I can’t get rid of...
