My dog has eaten many birds lately and we think it might be that. She also has had 2 litters before and I don’t know if they are too little or she just doesn’t wanna take care of them anymore. I wanna take them inside but I don’t know of its a good idea. Help!

My dog just had a litter of puppies
Tuesday, October 30th, 2012Tenactin on Cats
Sunday, October 28th, 2012Is it really okay to put Tenactin on a cat knowing she’ll lick it off or is an e-collar a must? A vet recommended this for her ringworm in place of sulfur dips, but I don’t want to permanently e-collar her until it clears up. Help!
Fluoride in the water
Tuesday, October 23rd, 2012I’ve been giving my cat distilled water. So I purchased an expensive brand of cat food. Is anyone else doing something to protect from fluoride poisoning and how do you add the minerals back into the diet?

What to feed a dog prone to pancreatitis?
Saturday, September 22nd, 2012I adopted a 7 year old beagle mix about 3 weeks ago. I had to rush her to the vet the other day because she got very sick. Turns out she has pancreatitis. She’s doing somewhat better and I have her on a diet of rice, chicken, chicken broth and a little baby food.
When she gets better what should I feed her? Anyone have any experience with this?

Oily fur standing up my cat
Wednesday, September 19th, 2012This seems like a bizarre symptom, but I read it on a symptom list the other day and can’t remember what it was for. When I got back, my cat had developed this symptom. For at least 24 hours, the fur down her back is standing straight up as though there’s static electricity caught in it, though there’s not, and it’s very oily looking only in that area.
Any idea what this could be? I think I was going down a list of malabsorption illnesses at the time I found it, but I can’t remember clearly.
How many times is normal for a small dog to pee in a day?
Friday, September 14th, 2012I have a shihtzu’s who’s 13 months old. She drinks water but she only pees twice in a day. Is this normal? How many times is normal for a small dog to pee in a day?
Dog aural hematoma
Thursday, September 13th, 2012Ruffa just developed a hematoma on the end flap of her ear. Actually, it takes up nearly half her ear in under an hour, about 2 inches long by 1.5 inches across.
Her appointment to be spayed and have her tumor removed is in 2 weeks. The vet insisted it be three weeks after her heat cycle. Is it okay to let the hematoma go that long? We’re calling the vet in the morning, but can’t seem to find an answer on how long is too long.
