I used my male shih tzu for stud the puppies are due this week we called the female owner about two weeks ago to ask about the mom and if the stud had taken she told us she wasnt sure but she thought so but about 3 days ago we got a call from her saying the female was not going to have puppies it did not take and said her vet said it was b/c he (my male) was too young but my mom said his other 4 studs had taken she kind of stumbled around not sure what to say then said mayby it was b/c they ony stuck once. We think the female is going to have puppies but maby ony one and our agreement was for $400.00 or a puppy now my Question Because she is not going to have puppies it is right to still ask for the stud fee right? I mean the service was provided and they did get stuck once any advice?

What do you have to say about BSL? Do you think it will work? If so, why? If not, why not? Do you think that there are other things we could do to combat dog attacks without banning whole breeds?... I just want to hear what everyone really thinks about all of this!

I have an 8 month old MINIATURE PINSCHER and he recently jumped off of a high up table and landed wrong and has since held his back left paw in the air when walking. He still walks and acts like nothing is wrong. He still tries to jump on to the bed, etc. but can't quite get up because of his leg.

I rushed him to the vet (a very good one) thinking that maybe he broke it, but the vet said that she didn't think it was broke. She rubbed and excercised both legs evenly and he did not react negatively to either one. She also mentioned that he wasn't acting like a dog who just broke his leg.

She didn't even think x-rays were necessary and she prescribed him with 2 days worth of. Carboprofen (or something that sounds like that - but it is a pain killer for dogs) and said that he should be okay and maybe je just strained it. The bottom line is that she didn't think it was broke.

Aby thoughts? Thank you so much! I greatly appreciate your input.

I have a 6 month old male dog whose balls have not dropped yet. And a 3 year old female dog who is not in heat. However, I have noticed them doin' it doggy style and was wondering if it is possible for them to get preg. So, basically I have two questions 1) Can a male produce sperm if his balls haven't dropped and 2) Can a female get preg if she isn't in heat?

We recently adopted a cross collie dog, 1yr old and whilst still really energetic he has started to get diarrhea, i first noticed it yesterday night, but thought nothing of it and he ate his food (we adopted him last saturday), but he has had it this morning as well, we're keeping off food till tommorow morning and seeing how he goes and i'm just about to pop-out to go and get some chicken and rice as i've read that can help it settle down.

We haven't changed his diet and are still using the food supplied from the dogs home. Apart from the diarrhea he still seems very energetic and alert, is there anything that we should look out for? If it doesn't clear up by tommorow afternoon should be take him over to the vets?

(Hes had all his shots and been de-wormed etc when he was taken in, roughly 2 weeks ago).

I went to the pet store today and they do not carry Frontline anymore. So they advised me to get Cutter. It is a 5 in 1 medication. Has anyone tried this before? K9 Advantix never worked so I am afraid of new things for my lil dog. Thanks

Anyone know of any place I can buy or order an extra large dog harness in a brown, cocoa or chocolate color? The size needs to be at least a 40" girth for a large dog. I've seen some leather ones but they seem like too much for my dog...he doesn't need that much reinforced strength. I just want a large nylon brown color harness. Websites or store names are appreciated. Price is not much of a factor for me.

A close friend's dog has had a "slipped ligature" after a neutering. The dog started to act "off" and then was taken to an emergency vet, which did another surgery (retied it apparently)...then blood transfusions...ICU, etc. Dog crashed twice.

Anyhow, the dog barely survived, may have cardiac issues now. But, the emergency vet bill is $6,000!!!

From the emergency vets, it sounds like the original vet did not do a good job suturing. A friend who is a vet tech said in 15 years she's never seen it happen because her vet does multiple ligatures...so if one slipped there would be a backup. Though, she said she had repaired some from "more careless vet offices" when she worked at an emergency animal hospital.

I'm wondering, how much responsibility should her original vet have in paying for what it sounds like is likely HIS mistake? Don't they have insurance for this sort of thing?

Hoping someone in the vet field with share opinions? She needs advice on what to do.

I have one, she is great, the perfect pet, but I wonder if she needs a nother schnauzer to play with when we are gone?

She stays in the house, and does well, I think she might be a bit lonely though. We are not gone long periods of time, but I will start working again in the fall and she will be alone more.
