My 7-8 year old pit bull mix has ben lethargic lately. We noticed that she had a orange colored diarreah and would not drink or eat. Our vet told us that she likely has an autoimmune disease called IMHD, but I can't find anything on this disease on the internet. Right now she is critically ill with a low red blood cell count. She is on Doxycycline,Prednisone, & Imuran. Has anyone else had any experience with this disease in dogs who can offer some advice?

I have a 11 year old dog, hes a flat-coated retriever/border collie, we want to start him on iams senior dog formula, but we also have a 4 year old border collie/black lab. We don't want to have to buy two seperate bags of dog food. So is it okay to feed my 4 year old border collie/lab the iams senior pet formula or will we have to buy two seperate bags of food?

Out of my 2 year old boxer, 8 year old chihuahua, and 3 1/2 month old pit bull puppy, which one is the most aggressive? As in, which one will be nice one minute then freak out on you the next, and doesn't like strangers or other dogs? Next, which one will do an alarm bark when someone comes to the door, is a total sweetheart but is completely calm, and is awesome with little bitty tiny kids? Last, which one is a complete spaz, never stops wagging the tail, runs from one end of the house to the next, licks all the time, and is very very excited and happy to see people?

Please place the dog with the question and explain why you put it that way. =) I'm just bored and can't think of anything better than to watch answers for the nextt 20 minutes while waiting for my show to come on. Hehe.

A friends beagle has started wetting in the house, barking, and running off since they started the medication. Is there anything that can be done, besides ceasing the medicine?

It was a boston terrior, I'm assuming it had hemorroids because there is something hanging out of its butt. I'm considering adopting it, does anyone know what it could be? And if it is fixable?

We keep him chained up in the family room as he runs after our 3 cats and potties on the floors. When we keep him on a long chain, he doesn't potty indoors. I don't know how to break either habit: the jumping up on us or the pottying on the floors when he is off the chain when he chases after the family cats. Does anyone have any ideas? Other than these two problems, he is a great dog. He is a very loving dog. He is a chow/golden retriever mix. Thanks for any suggestions you may be able to offer.

What it is the company that has a dog food commercial (aired recently) that had a person making a dog smile while having dog food rain down? The guy was talking about how it gives dogs meat and vegetables for strong muscles, or something like that.
Any help as to the name of the company or where I can find the commercial would be appreciated.

I'm not joking. My pug smells much worse than my other dog. Why is this? And more important, what should I do? (It's not enough to just wash her a lot.) Please help me. Other than her odor, she's a good dog.

my puppy is getting his first regular check up at the vet tomorrow. I already called them and asked them about the cost and such. They suggested me to get different tests on top of the regular check up. She said something about fecal sample test.
I don't really want to get unnecessary tests since they cost so much.
what are necessary tests that your puppy should get on his first vet visit? I don't want them to rip me off knowing that I'm clueless about vet check up.

Also is it ok to let my puppy lick my arm and face? He seems to do this many times through out the day. Is he trying to signal me...ex. hungry, thristy, need to go potty etc?

My chihuahua is almost 3 years old. He weighs 10 lbs. He is too big for a small harness but too small for a medium harness. And he slips out of his collar unless it is very snug. Does anyone have any serius ideas about what I can do for him? He isn't fat he is solid too, so I am at a loss on what to do.
