I have a one year old dog who was neutered yesterday and was in the hospital all night. We got him this morning, he peed outside the hospital, we got home and he drank a whole bunch of water. I have taken him out 2 different times and he won't pee. Also he's more grouchy, he's barking at people.

I have four 7 wk old chihuahuas currently on "half gerber baby food (veg n meat) mixed with puppy canned food" this formula was recommended by my vet to wean them with since the mom had caught the kennel cough about 2 weeks ago. The mom is better now. But the pups are still on that formula and I want to know what is the best way to switch them to dry food? I know I can't just swap it immediately, I don't want them to diarrea all over the kennel. Is it okay if I replace a meal with the dry food a day and increase it over time? How fast or slow to I do this process? I gave them a tiny handful as a snack today while I was gone and their poop turned out normal, is this a good sign? Please share your experiences thanks!

and I heard that is the law to have your dogs fixed here in California, how old does a puppy have to be to be fixed, so she won't have any puppies.

She's been home for a few days but hasn't eaten anything. I think this might be a part of her adjustment to a new home environment, but I was just trying to get a few extra opinions on the matter. I've provided her with the same type of food that the shelter I got her from provided (Science Diet).

What is the intent behind a game where a dog (female) will lick you heavily then try to rub her head against your hand but move in a circle to apparently escape being petted or scratched, and will softly bite your hand? I'm not sure the breed.

We got this dog a few days ago. He had just started getting used to us leaving and coming, but he would chase the car to the stop sign. My neighbor has a pitbull and he got a hold of our dog. Bit both his back legs and left a big gash. The dog has been laying in his dog house all day. just barely he got up and he was like choking or something. No vets will take him, but my mom keeps trying. My grandpa came over and said that he'll put the dog out of it's misery. The reason we got the dog was so my cousin's bxer wouldn't get it... obviously that didn't work. I don't know what to do. Please Help Me!!!

I was interested in them. I wanted to know how much they cost, if they shed alot and if they require alot of maintenance. My neighbor has a mix of a Shitzu and a Poodle and it doesnt shed much.

I have had to do that today and both me and my husband are devestated.
My dog was 14 years whch is a great age i know but, we both feel so upset, and feel the house is so empty without him around as he was a fantastic dog.
We have 2 other dogs, who keep looking for him and cant settle as hes not around.
If you have been in the same situation, how did u cope?
Can you give me any info that u feel might help us come to terms with this?

Thanks for your help

My dog was a healthy, happy little dog, suddenly got very sick and died 3 days later. I had brought her to an animal clinic where the vet did everything to save her. I am devastated, because she was a sweet dog who caused no one any harm. She was with me since she was 10 weeks old. I heard a report today on msnbc about contaminated dog food from a company in SC, selling it under the name Diamond and other names. It is highly poisonous and causes the dogs to suffer terrible liver damage. Are there others here who recently went through the same thing? I men, I fed her dog food that was supposed to be safe--and in the end it killed her. I wonder if I can find people who also lost their doggie to contaminated pet food and if they would be interested in filing a Class A lawsuit against this company. Please e-mail me directly to:

The dog is just turned a year old, this morning we find that she has all these little bumps on her - they seemed to spread as the morning progressed but are not causing any discomfort as she isn't fussing at them and has normal energy levels.

A woman at a shop suggested she had hives and added that giving her an antihistamine like Benadryl would ease it. We did give her one tablet and for about an hour and half most of them went away. They are now coming back. Still, there is no scratching and biting.

There's been no change in diet, no change in detergents that we wash her linens in. No new products have been introduced to her environment. We are doing work around the house and as it involves drywall there is a lot of dust. But we've doing this work for a week and there were no earlier symptoms of this.

Aside from the vet (emergency ones are really busy right now) are there any home remedies? How much more Benadryl can I give her in a day?

I think her previous owner abused her. Yesterday night, my sister brought her home so we would take care of her because the person that bought her didnt want her anymore. My chi (her actual brother) bosses her around,even though he is smaller. We're going to sell her soon because they don't get along. Any suggestions on how to deal with her low-self esteem?
