My 8 year old bulldog was put on steroids last month. His personality has completely changed. He pees in the house if I don’t walk him every two hours. Is aggressive to my other dogs.

I came into CEBR separately but have formed such a close bond and love for my foster brother Tank that CEBR has decided that we should be adopted as a bonded pair and stay with each other forever – Yay for us. You may have heard of us by our celebrity couple name #Truby. I’m 16 a month old...

Hello I have a 14 month old EBD named Bella. I noticed on Saturday night that she had been scratching her face and licking her paws. At first I thought that maybe she had scratched herself too hard that caused fold to get red. The following day I noticed the fold a little swollen and still red...

So Bella has been licking her back left paw for the last few days. I looked at it and am not sure what’s bothering her. Maybe a bite? It is red like from her licking it. But only the one paw so I don’t think it’s an allergy thing (because she would be licking all paws??). Thinking maybe...

Good afternoon all. I have a question but first just to keep you updated on Lola. She is doing really well since being spayed. The wound was infected but it has cleared up completely now. The laminate flooring has helped in my opinion with her allergies/scratching. She hardly scratches...

According to our vet, Tayto has a deep tissue strain in his back right knee. We noticed him yelping and not acting like himself about two weeks ago and took him in to get X-rays. They prescribed anti-inflammatory which seemed to help a bit. But he’s still been acting very lethargic, licking his...

Our 1 year old runs to the wood fence between our yard and neighbor's yard and sniffs and licks the fence repeatedly. When we let him out to take care of 'business', he runs straight for the fence. He usually let's us know when he needs to go out. He'll sit and whine at the door until we let...
