    Abscess or Pus?

    The swelling feels hard outside but fluidity inside and consists of two pups like a peanut. They are not hot or cold. Just warm like her skin. She is uncomfortable when handling it. She is sensitive when touching her lower back.

    Abscess or Pus?

    Local 24/7 clinics are full. I sent the photos to my local vet, she is fully booked until March. Since we scheduled an appointment to draw blood for Dr. Dodds next Tuesday, the vet asks the tech to look at her. Although the vet performed her Ovarian Spare Spay did reply with the below comments...

    Abscess or Pus?

    I noticed an abscess on my 7-year-old cocker spaniel's uterus or urinary tract. Her BEAM is good. No discharge, No odour. The abscess consists of two small masses in series. See the photos attached. Is it possibly a sign of pyometra? The mass is on the left side. She has one ovary, and I...

    Porcupine Quills

    I didn't cut the barbs before I removed the quill. We were in the woods. I have no tools with me. I struggled to keep her still and used my hand to pull most of the quills out quickly. I worried about the quills embedding deep into the skin. It is not a professional job, but I have been...

    Porcupine Quills

    My Cocker Spaniel finds herself with a mouthful of porcupine quills during our walk this afternoon. She had 5 inside her mouth, lips and less than ten on the outside. I managed to hand pull out most of them, but a couple needs a plier. So I took her to the nearest Vet Clinic to see if they could...

    Canine Estrus Symptoms

    Thank you Dr. Sara! I will look up the remedies. Would 200CC, 1 pallet per day for 3 days be a suitable dosage to start? I stop the pallets if she shows signs of fatigue during the 3 days and observes for a couple of weeks. Laura
