I started off feeding my bordeaux science diet and was told by the manager at petco to switch to biljac. He seemed to have good knowledge on a good diet for a mastiff since he had an english mastiff and this is what he is feeding his. My bordeaux seems to like his biljac and has good stool but it has by products in it and i was always told thats a no no, but then he went off on how these dogs in australia are eating straight chickens parts which is the by product in bil jac and they live to be 30 years old. now that i have done more research i have seen that solid gold and innova are maybe the way i should go. So if you could please give me any help it would be appreciated. what i am looking for in the dog food is a nice soft shiny coat, good health, nice lean muscular body, and a good taste. thank you.

Why is that my dog will be DESPERATE to go out,, use the bathroom. Maybe its been a long while since last and when I take him out the animal has to walk 3 miles before he actually goes. Maybe he wont even go but as soon as we get home, there he goes.

I have the utmost respect for your job. I keep thinking about becoming one (Vet Tech) but I personally do not think I could handle seeing dying and/or dead animals on a regular basis. It makes me so sad to see my cats and dogs sick...I don't know how I could deal with that as a career. How do you guys/gals do it? I am very interested to know.

On behalf of all pet owners...keep up the good work :)

This isn't the typically dog with his tounge out. Just the tip of it, sometimes a little more pokes out of his mouth and will just sit there. This even happens when he is sleeping. It's really cute, I'm just worried it might me some sort of brain damage/mental issue.

I've asked her several times to keep him from doing this and I can out there this morning and there were 4 more loads of it. I have two small kids and I'm sick of picking up after him. What can I do to get this to stop can I have the pound pick her dog up when I see him in my yard?

my dog got a skull fracture a few days ago..we took her to the vet and they said she had a skull fracture but the vet said that she doesnt think my dog has brain damage..she didnt do any tests to make sure though..she was just saying because my dog wasnt showing any signs of it..but i just want to do what are signs of brain damage? because my dogs pupils i think are a little bigger than usual..shes acting normal..she licks herself alot though..she can run and walk..but walks and runs a little weird..she barks and does all the normal stuff..shes eating..but when shes sleeping her eyes twitch and roll back and forth and open and close alot..its scary and i dont know what to do about it, any vets out there think my dog has brain damage? any people with experience? please let me know!

What dog food brand do you buy for your dog, and how much does the dog weight?

I have been feeding my 2 pits with Royal Canin, for 7 months now. I just like the results, they get skin allergies, they got tired of that food already, they don't really want to it unless they're very hungry, plus the food is very costly as well. I'd like to know what you people feed your dogs, because I will go to Petco in a few hours, and I will buy a different brand of dog food. I was thinking about buying Canidae, or Solid Gold. I would pick Blue Buffalo, but Petsmart are the only ones who carry that brand, and that's store is kind of far from where I live.

My westie will be 7 in August. She is the first dog I have owned.
I have recently noticed that she is slower and not so "springy" on walks.
We often go out with my friend and her two younger dogs and she doesn't race with them like she used to.

She had a check up in October and was perfectly healthy. I asked about joint stiffness and the vet examined her legs carefully and said there was nothing remarkable.

She is not over weight.

Do dogs just natrually slow down at this age.

If a dog year is 7 of our years she is only 49.

Thanks for any help
