I have a large breed dog (a doberman to be exact) and he's about 7 years old. I know that large dogs often encounter involving joint pain. He seems to have joint pain because more and more often he fidgets when standing and prefers to lie down after just short periods of standing up (if not needed.. when we take him on walks he's more than delighted to go). I believe one of his hind foot is bothering him. I've talked to my veterinarian and he's had me look into some prescription pain medications but I'm a student and the prescriptions are really expensive! I've started him on joint supplements for animals like chondroitin (sp?) and glucosamine but I was wondering if there was anything else I could do to help him out. I don't want to try to give him painkillers if I don't know whether or not he is allergic or sensitive to them. Does anyone else have more knowledge than I do?

We give him 1 cup of food 2 times a day. We have him trained to sit and wait to go to the food until we say go, and as soon as we say go, he has that food gone in 2 seconds, I am sure he doesn't even really chew it, he just inhales it. If we try to take the food away to slow him down he trys to eat faster. It's like he thinks if he doesn't eat it fast it won't be there. We got him when he was 7 weeks old, and he has never had issues with other pets trying to eat his food if he didn't eat it fast. So I am not sure why he would do that. He is 8 months old.

I let my dog out today and she cut the bottom of her foot on something. I bandaged it up. I cleaned it will water/rubbing alcohol and bandaid brand wound wash. I put tripple anti-biotic on it and wrapped it up in bandage. Will she be ok. I need a home treatment. Cut is bad but not bad enough for stiches i think. It wasn't bleeding bad only when cleanin it. Its wrapped up and she is in the cage so she will stay off of it. I gave her doggy asprin for the pain. ANY ADVISE WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECTIATED THANKS.

I attempted to empty my dog's anal gland, but nothing came out. He seems to be releasing anal gland fluid (in very small amount that has a very fishy smell) every three to four days or so. I read that some dogs have anal gland that do not close, which can be removed through surgery. Does this mean he need surgery? What is the cost?

Well, we got a new puppy, and even though my Grandma bought the dog, my Aunt pays for the toys and whatnot.
She's 16 weeks and got her rabies shot a couple days ago, and now is so hyper from her downtime. She's a shih tzu, very small, runt of the little.
She wants to play, and she'll try to play with our hands and nibble on them, but whenever she dose that my Aunt, my Aunt smacks her, hard.

The dog welps, tried to run and goes somewhere where she can be avoided, but goes back to normal, yet gets a bit shy and flinches when someone tried to pick her up.

Me and my Grandma have both told her that people can get tickets, and plus the dog will become a lonely dog, not trusting anyone.

Whenever she nibbles on me, I get her favorite toy and praise her for playing with it, so dose my grandma.

When we told her, she just got defensive and yelled at us, telling us that no one ever gets a ticket for hitting there dog, and my friend said it was okay!(see addtional details)

we rescued my dog from an animal shelter and the lady said they found him in a hurricane. we have found out he is terrified of water. Since he won't take a bath he stinks and we can't stand it anymore. we have tried everything at home but he has chocked himself and broken our bathroom door. I need to find a way to give him a bath without having to go broke. we are broke. we are scared he will attack the groomers we take our other dog to so groomers is out of the question.
