    Advice on injured dog

    She has chewed out both the stitches that was in that area but is leaving the other two places alone. She is walking now like nothing ever happened, he had said she would probably not walk for 4-5 days so we are ahead of schedule. I am hoping that it will heal up, I have been keeping all the...

    Advice on injured dog

    The vet didn't give me one I should have asked, we don't have any pet stores around here and the vet is about 30 miles away. I am trying to keep her from chewing it, the one that she got out did not look like it was in very well. We are definitely getting them spayed as soon as possible...

    Advice on injured dog

    She does appear to be better she will stand on her own, but still hasn't wanted to use the bathroom, she is eating and drinking (and loving the special meals). She has also however managed to chew one of her staples out.

    Advice on injured dog

    Well we headed to the vet as soon as they opened up this morning, he said she was pretty mangled up. He gave her an antibiotic shot and some kind of shot for the pain.

    The thermometer I had will not work, I have her on a comforter covered up with a blanket and towel and she does not feel cold or too hot. I tried checking the gums but she is part chow so her gums are naturally not pink. I will probably be up most of the night with her,praying that she will be...

    Advice on injured dog

    Just thought I would update and another question, I gave her the tramadol around 6:30, prior to that she did eat about half her normal amount of dog food. I tried to get her to stand to try and go outside and potty but because the same back and front leg is injured she has trouble but can stand...

    Advice on injured dog

    Thanks everyone. I just fed her a bit of food and gave her more of the electrolytes. I am going to wait a few minutes to give her the Tramadol b/c with the other dog it caused vomiting and I don't want her to have to go through that on top of everything else.

    Advice on injured dog

    It was my Saint Bernard who attacked her, She isn't a small dog (45 lbs) I flushed out the wounds with the clorhexidine and I am going to get some antibiotic cream for her. Its not bleeding now, but I was just worried about the aspirin thinning the blood and it starting to bleed again? At this...

    Border Collie and Border Collie mix thread!

    My border collie Junie right after we got her. We met her at an adoption day that was hosted at the park, decided to think about it for a little bit. Was worried about her so decided to go to the pound a couple days later to see if she had been adopted, she had not and was just one day away...

    I am no expert but I think she should be fine. We had a goat jump off our stairs and land on her side.... on top of a T Post. She had to be rushed to the vet and operated on to close the wound. She ended up doing fine and had a healthy baby a month later. She is the "top" goat and has always...

    Barn cat just died....

    Im so sorry. I found one of our cats dead last night, she had no visible injuries other than a small amount of blood around the mouth. She had been hit by a car. I felt really bad, b/c I had been planning to make her stay inside since we had missed having her spayed in time and she was pregnant.

    Dog, Cat, Mouse...Goofy pet pics welcome!

    Trying to take a picture of just the dog in the background, but Cleo thought she should be the center of attention and jumped up at the last second. Three rescued kittens we took in, taking a nap together. Another previous kitten we took in.
