I made the mistake of getting the dog vaccinated with Parvo at 2 months old due to the vet preaching about how he was so contagious. He is over 8 months old now and has not had a vaccination since then. I feed my dog mostly fresh pet chicken food and barkley's beef food (these are all frozen...

Thank you Dr. Jeff! Puppy is doing much better now!

thank you so much! I gave him a turkey bone today and realized later that I should not have done that as his tail has been down most of the day and his appetite very poor. He finally ate some food later tonight, but ate more after I gave him some chicken and peas. he also went over to try and...

Never mind. Was concerned and called poison control. They stated to just watch him. Thank you!

My 10 pound puppy just ate most (but not all) of a red yeast rice pill. Should I go to the vet or use slippery elm?

That is a wonderful idea--thank you!

I did speak to the senior vet tech and they stated that inducing vomiting could cause more problems with the acorns coming up but I forgot why. Hence they also advised me to just watch him. Having a puppy that likes to eat anything and everything is clearly very stressful, particularly last...

I just spoke to one of the vet techs or the receptionist who talked to some of the vet techs and they stated I could watch him and bring him in if he continues to get worse. He did however, eat his food and he looks a little less uncomfortable now i.e. his tail is not down all the time now

would you recommend going to the vet to induce vomiting?

he is only 8 pounds. When I went out there to look at the acorns on the front porch there were a lot that were cracked open but there were some large pieces of acorn left. I also realize many of those cracked acorns were related to squirrels. so I'm not sure he's eating the whole acorn or how...

No need to respond. I'm just going to watch him. I need to post more on the behavioral thread as this dog is eating everything that could be poisonous to him. And being the worry wort that I am --it gets stressful!

It's not the allieve, but the acorns that he has been eating in the yard. I just realized that acorns are not good for dogs. he ate quite a few of them today being that he was out there for a while. He is sluggish and his tail is down a lot. Not sure whether or not to go to the vet.

sorry I did not post his on the wrong board. I resposted this in the peer advise. Thank you!

My dog ingested a lot of acorns and is acting very sluggish and not himself. I'm a little freaked out. Should I make him vomit or take him to the vet.

My puppy (6 months old) was hospitalized last month for eating 1 or 2 allieve. He came back to me with a bottle of allieve (that only had 1 or 2 in the bottle) and it was empty. I couldn't find the pills anywhere. He was in the hospital for a few days and they gave him meds and intravenous...

Well the cat got a clean bill of health thankfully. Only the vet snookered me into giving him his rabies and distemper despite me letting them know he will be indoors from here on out. I'm also keeping my outdoor cat inside now, but I know the vaccinations will make her nervous so I decided...

Hello, I took a homeless cat in a year ago and not knowing any better got him vaccinated in November 2022. He was an inside outside cat. I tried keeping him inside but he was so depressed. So I let him out and my neighbors kept feeding him garbage (despite my pleas not to feed him) and he...

My cat has had a pretty big appetite lately. I'm feeding her canned food mostly but very good pet food including salmon and tuna. I'm concerned she may have tapeworms since she's been eating about 6 tablespoons of food a day, maybe 7. I was so concerned that I bought one of the over the...

FYI the vet told me her eye got scratched. But just a day or 2 of drops worked fine so she is happy now. Thank you again!
