My dog, Katydid, (boxer/bulldog mix) loves to go out into the lake at our house...every time she does, a few hours after getting out, the parts of her body that were in the water are very red and swollen...it almost looks like a rash of somekind. She doesn't scratch at it, but she does "clean" the areas a lot (very slowly). She acts as though it maybe stings, or is sore, but not really itchy. It doesn't seem to spread to other areas. The obvious response is to keep her out of the lake, but what I am really looking for is...Has anyone else had this problem? What could be in the water that would cause it (Other dogs that get in seem just fine)? Are there any type of skin problems particular to her breed that may be associated? Or maybe a deficiency that makes her succeptible? Beyond keeping her from something she loves to do, does anyone have any suggestions on how to handle this (I don't really need common sense answers such as taking her to the vet)? Thanks, in advance, for your time.

In this muggy heat, swarms of flies are hovering over my dog's head and biting his ears and nose. I can't leave him inside when I'm at work all day. Is there anything that can be done for the poor fellow?

I just paid $54. to get Advantage for my Lab and its not working. She still has fleas. I have seen them. I have also bathed her in Adam's flea shampoo(which has worked great on other dogs I've had) but none came off. Now what?
PS. I bathed her before I put the advantage on her and she has not had a bath since.

due to the warm water. Why do you think the water got so warm, and how to keep it cool?

I love cats but they don't seem to like being picked up. Is there anywhere you should aim for when you pick them up and how is it best to hold them?

My tortoise has tiny red and white spots on his/her neck.
Is that just his coloring, or is it bad.
If you can, please give me some webstites about
turtle and tortoise care.
Thank you so much.
