Wanted

that's bad luck As said- often people change over lenses and sell the 'old' ones at a reasonable price .

They are pups- and siblings, and will bark and look for entertainment!! HE needs to provide HEAPS of direction and stimuli ..and perhaps a run ...

With luck, he will be more settled tomorrow

AFAIK.. the stomach fills with gas, and twists on its axes.... like if you look at a sausage- or a lolly wrapper... twisted to enclose the bulge. This quickly cuts off circulation.....and the expanding gut puts pressure on vital organs My Kieran died from bloat/torsion years back now.... horrible. slow typing- much more detailed info got there first

What poodlefan said. She is a little baby- frightened and alone, and in a strange new world. Who will feed and toilet her while you are at work? oops- re read the post.. you will be popping home?

fingers crossed here for a full and uneventful recovery!

unlikely- but it could follow injury. Poor boy... it is a hard one to crack- as if it is boredom/anxiety related... then you have to provide a substitute to get the 'feel-good' stuff happening for him.

All I can think of is to get a run ,and quickly! Stock it with bones etc... and meanwhile- work on some training and stuff.

Ravyk. Causes are varied... from anxiety/boredom to trying to relieve pain of arthritis or nerve damage. It can develop into a compulsive thing, and cause an ulcerated /thickened area-'lick granuloma'. Aloe Vera will soothe the spots... the suggested product will numb and protect them. You could try chiropractic treatment too It helped my old Mitchell.

That's good- at least you now know--and the AB's should sort it

enjoy your pup LOL No- YOU will teach him!! "Puppy School will teach YOU" Glad he is bright and inquisitive

I don't have pittys... and would never, altho I love the look and temperament... I am a huge DADDY fan!!! but it sounds a fair comment to me With a lot of 'trendy' dogs.. pups are often purchased by people who have not the resources to handle the particular coat type, or strength, or exercise needs... So- with a gentle 'warning' coming from Cesar.. some folks may realise that a pitty is not for them.

Something in the dim recesses of memory is whispering "hookworm".... Or IBS ?

Re the water spraying... add some (not a lot!) vinegar to the water .. and the smell/taste will not be popular like plain water!

Hope all goes well tomorrow No! It's scary !! My old wolfhound x dane . Kieran had his head xrayed... and the vet was laughing at just HOW tiny his brain was !! It looked like a walnut!!

Dear little thing.... :hug:s

SecretKei.. do you do THIS with your ratbag? It may just drum into his brain that YOU are the omnipotent- the giver of good things, and the one with the POWER !!

oh Ok... I didn't know- it has been a LONG time since I used a boarding kennel :p Well done...apologies if you thought I was 'having a go'

You may well do-and that's worth heaps!! however putting a dog with a potentially infectious condition into a large group of dogs isn't the most responsible action ...do boarding kennels actually accept dogs with diarrhoea present???

Me? I would be seeing not just speaking with, another vet. Did he have a high temp? Did they do a parvo test? Did they mention anything like Giardia ?

SecretKei- do you go obedience at Barmera? No one there capable of understanding/helping?

and because she has TRAINED you to let her out,or speak to her when she does this

Hope he's ok

Oh- ok ;)
