can someone please tell me what this is? it might be feline asthma, I'm not sure; any advice would be helpful :)

I'm planning to take her to the vet this week for a regular checkup, and will show them the video as well.

Any idea what this could be on our 13 week old boxer girl - it’s seem to have gotten a bit worse. When I try to wipe it off, it looks like when you’d wipe dried blood - kind of brownish flakes. It feels smooth to the touch and not like scabs. It’s only on her belly. I have a call in to make an appt but just wanted to get others opinions.

Hello! So I noticed this scratch when I was taking a shower and the hot water stung a bit. And I don’t know where it possibly came from or how old it is. I worry about whether it’s a cat scratch, but it doesn’t look like a typical cat scratch and I didn’t feel anything scratch me to my knowledge bc I would’ve been reactive. 2 hours ago, I was walking to the store and from the corner of my eye I noticed a cat 3 feet away from me and I kept walking and looked back and it was in the same spot. The abrasion is located above my ankle of the inside on my leg. And I was wearing long sweatpants, put I didn’t see any nail marks from a cat. Does this look like a cat fresh scratch or an already healing abrasion? Also when I took this photo the minor scrape was already flat.

Hello im trying to figure out what these Hard lumps on both sides of my female 10year old English bulldogs nose are they just suddenly appeared and are extremely hard and cause pain when touched

My 10month old Basenji got into our compost and ate week old french onion soup which had been discarded. We caught her and immediately called the emergency vet who instructed us how to induce vomiting. Within 30-45min of ingesting the onions, she vomited four times. The first incident of vomiting had all the onions, very few in the second instance and the third and fourth instances were white foamy water and light yellow tinge (suspecting bile).

This occurred at 12:00pm, she is acting completely normal now. The vet instructed us to offer her some rice and water around 4:00pm.

I am an emotional and anxious mess. We live in a tiny, remote island, there is no comprehensive vet care here. We are flying to the mainland on a pre-planned trip with her Monday (we always take our dogs on vacation with us) and have contacted the mainland vet who will see her and do a blood test to ensure she is okay.

Can someone tell me straight and true, will she be okay?

This is my almost two year old dog. to be honest i don’t cut his nails apart from his dew claw since he likes to scratch the floor for scent marking every time he goes toilet outside or if he smells something he likes. he ends up filing his own nails down short. vets know he does this and isnt concerned about behaviour. i’m assuming that’s how he did this. i don’t know how to sort this out or just leave it to sort itself out, but chances are he’s going to scratch the floor on this evenings walk and i don’t want him to do damage to it. do i cut it and where abouts do i cut ?

we noticed only today, he’s 4-5 yrs old and Transylvanian Mountain Hound breed. what is this and what can we do?

Hello everyone,

My roommate and I have had a recent problem develop with our dog and I was wondering if anyone had any advice.

My roommate owns a 4 year old, unspayed, female German Shepard and recently she’s developed, what seems to me, like anxiety.

Over the last week or so she’s been crying, pacing, and just seems to be in a lot of distress. Historically she would cry at the door briefly after we left, but would eventually settle down and sleep until we returned home. She would also previously whine whenever my cats would play and run around the house.

Now she is crying constantly and pacing around the house with this one specific toy in her mouth. She is continuing to cry at the door when we leave for work, but now it is genuinely upsetting to hear how distressed she sounds when we walk out. When we check the pet cam during the day, she is sitting on the couch and howling and the same toy is usually sitting next to her.

My roommate took her to the vet this afternoon and her physical exam and bloodwork were all normal. We are currently waiting on the results of a urinalysis to rule out a UTI. The vet did also not see any signs of a false pregnancy or pyometra.

There have been some environmental and routine changes. Our second dog recently passed away this past June, and I recently started a new job within the last month that is field-based when I previously worked from home. The German Shepard did not necessarily seem to be phased when our other dog first passed away, but I’ve heard dogs can experience delayed stress responses. The vet did say that a grief response being this prolonged is unusual, but I’m not sure if my not being home anymore could have triggered that.

The other odd thing is that she still cries after we arrive home. She will eventually settle down but it takes a little while. Our return does not seem to bring any immediate relief. I’m not sure if she’s having trouble regulating and self-soothing after being upset all day or what.

I personally feel that the vet was very dismissive of the possibility of her developing separation anxiety, even after explaining the recent changes, and so far nothing seems to be physically wrong with her.

She only cries in the house. She seems perfectly content on her walks and was fine in the car and in the vet’s office today. I’m just not sure how to help her. I hate that she’s been so upset recently and honestly feel like the vet and my roommate are being very passive in terms of problem solving.

She’s been eating and drinking normally. She doesn’t seem to be straining or experiencing any pain when urinating. There’s been no aggressive behaviors at all.

I just want to help her feel better. Has anyone experienced this before or have any thoughts on what could be going on?

My baby girl Roo is having some kind of issue with her eyes. Earlier today, I noticed that her left eye was squinty, red, and watery. It has gotten worse over the course of the day and now her other eye is starting to get squinty and red as well. She is also acting slightly lethargic. Every place near me says its closed via google and the nearest open place is 2 hours away. I just wanna cry. She is miserable and idk what to do.

She will be 4 years old in December. Shes a lab/husky mix. Ive had her since she was around 6 weeks old. She got all her shots up to 6 months old when her previous vet gave her the last of her "puppy shots" ig you would call them. She is due for rabies vaccine though. She lives with one other small elderly dog and her kitten sister. She also has a pretty large yard she runs in that is partially on the side of a mountain. I suspect shes gotten something in her eye or maybe the cat scratched her during play. She doesnt have contact with other dogs and shes only outside a short time usually to potty

Recently learned that my angel dog has malignant melanoma on her lip. Need recs for surgeon to remove a wider area of tissue and possibly more. Has anyone had positive experience with such a veterinary surgeon (by positive I mean you felt that they did the best job they could under the circumstances). Thank you!

He's been limping, staggering, reluctantly to move, lost a lot of wait in 4 days, lost of appetite, constant yellow/white eye and nose discharge.

I let him outside as I live in a rural area no traffic off a dead end road and I’m the last house on road. Big yard. Few mins later I heard him crying for a few seconds. I open door and he’s limping inside. At first I thought it was his leg, but it wasn’t. His underside on his genital looks like this. Possibly a bug bite? Or something scraped him. We just got back from a walk and he’s eating drinking using bathroom as normal. I looked around and there is no opens anywhere. Anyone seen something similar before? Thanks!

Que tal grupo, Cachorro chihuahua de 4 meses de 1.5kg fue golpeado por accidente por una puerta, posterior al incidente presenta mareo y vertigo, con rigidez muscular en todo su cuerpo solo permanece sentado y camina un poco, presenta hipervigilancia voltea para todos lados, y no se siente comodo en ningún lado.

Hello,

My dog has been having on/off urinary incontinence episodes, but only in specific circumstances. She is 1.5 years old, to be spayed next month: (she was treated for a possible UTI already after the first episode):

1. It's never overnight leaking, even if she hasn't gone out in a long time.

2. It's never a true squat in the house accident, it's leaking when she's relaxed (laying down, or even laying on her back).

3. It ONLY occurs in the 1 hour or so AFTER being taken out and peeing normally outside.

4. The issue has seemed to resolve itself after 7-10 days, no more post void leaking. I was able to track this by using diapers.

5. It seems to be brought out by baths/grooming. She just was groomed yesterday and this morning she left a big puddle where she was laying after she came back in. The last two episodes I've been able to link to a bath.

Is it possible the baths are causing irritation of the urethra and causing the sphincter incompetence? Similar to when irritation during a UTI? Or is this all just coincidental? Is there any kind of procedure they could do while they are in there for the spay? I've spoken to my vet and she just thinks it's USMI and says if it keeps happening we can try Proin. Anyone have any experience with this?

The dog that lives infront of my house, is having difficulty in her eyes, since yesterday evening. The pupils have shifted to 2 sides. And she's having difficulty opening them. I have no idea what could have led to this.

There's no vet that can come. And there's no way I can take her to one.

Can anybody please help?
