My name is Izzy and I feel so, so lucky to have been rescued by some awesome people. You see, the first few years of my life were pretty rough. I was overbred-- probably by a puppy mill--I got very sick, and was tied up in a field in Wisconsin and left alone for what could have been a very sad...

My 14 week old puppy has thrown up during the night the past 2 nights. She is fine all day, no throwing up, playing up until bedtime. Then in the middle of the night, I can hear her and she throws up. She always sounds like she has flim in her throat but I don't think that has anything to do...

My StoryWe are grateful that we were able to take in 15 (yes 15!!!!) dogs from a commercial breeding situation. We are literally swimming in bulldogs. They traveled across the country to arrive in our care, and sadly, many are in very bad condition. Several of these rescues are very sick. Two...

My 4 year old has had diarrhea since Saturday afternoon/evening. He got sick while staying at my mother in laws house while we were out of town. She has two other dogs. He has a lot of allergies and they are very lackadaisical about their dogs—feed them whatever, give them treats they probably...

I'll try to keep this short. Our bulldog, Polkadot, has had diarrhea since late September. Before I took her in for her first visit regarding this, I tried a bland diet. That didn't help much and she started puking so I took her to the vet. She had only gotten sick 2-3 times. They gave use meds...

Going to try explaining the noise coming out from her throat...bare with me... Been over a week and from what im noticing it can be the cold outside but not 100% sure yet. Noise is like a clearing the throat but loud n non-stop. NO mucus, tearing eyes, nose or cough whatsoever. It's in the...
