Dogs - July 2006

My dog has Addison's Disease and has to take Steroids for the rest of her life, her body doesnt produce them.
I have had a dog in my training class that took prednisone (for another reason) and I referred them to a veterinary behaviorist due to aggression and the highest level of anxiety I have ever seen in a dog. The dogs' veterinarian told the owner that the aggression and anxiety was due to the steroids and this dog takes 1/3 the amount of my dog.
My vet says that since lexus doesn't produce the steroid, she will not react this way.
She does not show any aggression and is extremely well trained, (for me, not my boyfriend)
The difference I see is she is exceptionally STARVING all the time! I call her pizza pie eyes! Her anxiety is over food now, and she is interested in seeing other dogs alot more, with no aggression. This is not a problem for me, my boyfriend is not a very good handler though ! :)

I hope no more side effects, has anyone else had a bad reaction?

My dog seems to be coughing alot, but she coughs up white foamy stuff... She also sounds like she is choking.
I called the vet and they said take up her food until monday that was it...
Could she be having a cold or allergies? She is not choking on anything that I could find.
She is 1 yr old and is a Cheapeak Bay Golden Retreiver, this all started last night... The weird thing is I have been sick for two nights as in vomiting only at night, but in the morning I have felt better.
Sorry I don't mean to sound gross.
Can someone please help!

one more thing my friend bought some exer-Hide raw hide chew bones, but not a bone just looks like it.(Chicken basted.) After she got theses with in a day she started choking and I notice anytime she eats or chews anything she chokes or coughs.
Could she be allergic to these?
Please help I don't know what or where to go with this She is doing this often and did it all night long last night July /21-22/06

My puppy is 3 months old and does have a very large clitoris, but other than that I see nothing else to tell she is anything other than a female. Only serious answers please respond because I'm serious about this. I am planning on having her spayed but will I also have to have her neutered too? Help???

I have heard that this helps with the delivery process. Has anyone ever used
the ice cream and did it help? When should you actually give the ice cream,
when the dog is panting, onset of labor, or during labor? They usually don't want to eat at all during labor. Any suggestions from people who have used the ice cream would be helpful.
