Please welcome Thelma to our rescue family! She comes to us after a recent local puppy mill bust that involved the seizure of 132 animals. Thelma is 3 years old and only weighs 28 lbs. She is a mess health-wise, but everyone in the shelter loved her personality and came out to bid her adieu...

Oo la la! My name is Paris and I am a beautiful six year old girl. I have heard of people surrendering their dogs because the dogs became old and ill. But this is not my story. In fact it is the opposite. I was bought as a puppy by a loving family. But over the years my mom has become disabled...

Wearing #240 and 3 years old, Genesis has found her freedom. Scares up her side from C-sections reveal a life of birthing babies, having primitive vet care, and of multiple litters. Saturday when Genesis was placed on the table at the puppy mill auction and lifted in the air all anyone heard...

Hello everyone, can someone please share a sample meal for a 4 month old puppy. the breeder was feeding him a very cheap dog food and I'm switching him over to raw. I'm not sure what bones he can eat at this age, I did read all the old post on here but I'm not sure what part of the meal counts...

Last week I lost Summer. She was 16ish, had several chronic issues, including dementia and vestibular disease. I had been evaluating her quality of life monthly for about a year. I often wondered if I would be able to make a rational decision. Tuesday the 17th of Oct. forced my decision...

Hi all - Decided to finally get the Palate surgery for Baxter as he has pretty bad sleep apnea, and his throat closed up one day when we were playing outside. Im wondering if its normal for him to be vomiting and gagging on phlegm like crazy a couple weeks after the surgery. He tends to...

I would like to add fish to Hanks diet (I do make him salmon occasionally when I make it for me) and, from the looks of it this looks REAL good way to do it. I like adding my own protein, but this would be a nice addition??? If anyone has the time or notion, could you take a look and see what...

For the last few days Bella hasn't wanted to eat her food... She'll eat maybe half of what I give her (unless I hand feed her that is ! Lol) I only give her 1 1/2 cups each meal with a little coconut oil. My hubby says maybe it's too hot to eat. She is fine otherwise and of course wants to eat...

At first, documenting anything and everything Vegas related was very important to me. I wrote this article for a sister forum that has since been shut down. Thankfully Lisa was able to save this article from being deleted. Over the years I've referred people to this article simply to let them...

Hello, I have a 3 year old English bulldog, he is an active English bulldog and came from a very healthy litter and both parents weren't the typical chubby bulldogs but a little taller. He eats pedigree wet food (3 tins a day spread over two meal times) with some cooked chicken sometimes...

I know that sounds funny(normal Bulldogs)...but MINI gets hiccups at almost every meal. So Sandy and I sit with her (in the Bailey chair)until they stop. As cute as it seems they may cause her to regurgitate. Regurg is bad. So we sit...usually no more than 15 minutes. She's a good girl and...

Question for your all......Joey's eating habits seem to be changing. At first I thought it was just that she was off of her schedule a few days last week, but it's continuing. She is fed in the morning and evening. She has skipped the evening meal for a few days now. I put her food down and she...

Hey everyone! Newbie here! ::waves:: I have just started my 1+ bully boy on a raw diet. Everything is going really well, but I am scared to DEATH to give him bones! I'm afraid he'll choke or have some digestive issue. (His jaw alignment is pretty good, but he's definitely an inhaler.) How do...

So my boy Lincoln, 9.5 months old, weighing about 48 lbs., is showing very little interest in his food the past week; however, I should mention that ever since I've had him since 12 weeks old, he's never been much of an eater. But lately, he's been eating very little at meals times. I feed him...

So, it's cold outside and ive been on the road all week. I felt like a nice homemade chicken soup. Well, I stole a frozen home cook meal of Nyala's ! :yes: Eh, pays off to home cook for your dog. Lolll

My 8.5 month old male English Bulldog weighs about ~48 lbs. right now. He gets fed 2x a day (3 - 3.5 cups total, TOTW). He absolutely loves natural peanut butter and everyday before work, I will put about 1-2 tablespoons in his kong and toss it in his crate to keep his busy for a bit; however, I...

Reggie is sick :( He has had a few days of trouble with poop. Starts off firm & normal in the morning, and gradually gets softer & softer through the day, and is also pooping A LOT each time, apart from the runniest ones in the evening. No blood or mucus though, so thats a good thing. Then...

I have been out most of the day so I just fed Chunky his late meal and when I took him out to poop he went to the side walk without his leash or harness on and I told him to go on. He ran up the street and did his business than ran back down into the garage while I stood in the driveway. I...

Fezzik was whining his head off and was very upset about something. He usually gets this way when his favorite ball is under the furniture. I asked him what was wrong and I followed him as he led me to his food bin. I think his belly was rumbling and he was upset I wasn't feeding him. Does your...

Just after the other post about 'marking' my boy has just started peeing in the house. It's great I have hardwood floors but REALLY??? !!!!!! He was so simple to potty train with NO accidents for 5 months and now he decides to do this... The worst is, (to me) is I finally caught him in the act...

Sorry everyone it seems like I have way more questions and problems then I have helpful co tributions on this site but here I go again. We took buff to the university on sept 15th they suggested we try and get her of prednisone again so weve been cutting black since then moving to a quarter a...

This is getting ridiculous. Initially, I was was able to give pills to Bella in her kibble. She'd gobble up everything in ignorance. [God, how I miss those days!] In her brilliance, however, Bella started eating around the pills. Then, I started giving them to her in a spoonful of yogurt...

I noticed a month ago that Porkchop is no longer drinking from his water bowl. I used to change out the water 2-3 times a day because of saliva. He was put on an elimination diet (ruling out allergies) where about 6 oz of water is added to his homemade meal, twice daily. Hardly enough water. I...

I just recently bought a book from a finnish dog trainer and I really like it. It has very different views from other trainers, but it all makes so much sence. One thing....most people when they leave the house, they leave the dog some toys or chews or even toys with treats in them to have...

One toothy smile from Foxie, and you can’t help but fall in love. Estimated to be eight years old, this sweet bully is spayed and was surrendered to a shelter “due to allergies.” Foxie is a friend to humans of all ages. Just keep an eye on those adorable and protruding teeth. She does adore...

We've been to the vet with Boeboe now a couple of times since end of last year for vomiting. Each time we've been prescribed Antibiotic along with Ulsanic (it forms a protective layer over the stomach lining and helps against nausea). Boeboe is 6 years old, she's not on any regular medication...

Hey everyone, I've read the sticky threads and have read a few other articles/posts about feeding raw. I have an 8 week old Olde male, and am wanting to switch him to raw today, he has been eating Kibble (Diamond Natural for large breeds) I am wondering is it fine to just start him on something...

since we are looking at a lifetime of no treats and strict feeding because of mega E does anyone have suggestions for training without treats? She was doing so well, anything for food. Praise only gets us so far, and since Frith is just 6 months, basic training was not completed. She is uber...

I may be a bit premature with this post but I cleaned Georges Tail pocket today and he was ok ish with it. He fell asleep a few mins later and after around 5 mins he jumped up and started squealing and twisting around as if to chase his tail. It was a noise I had never heard him make before it...
