My dog is Male, 8lbs, 3 years old and is a Chihuahua.When he throws up it's white, clear and foamy. The amount isn't excessive but he's thrown up 7-8 times throughout the morning on thru the evening. Can you give a dog ant-acid ? I am taking him to the vet on Monday, but would like to try and keep him comfortable until then (It is Sunday July, 22) .

my dog had a cyst on her back [non-cancerous], and our doctor recommended to surgery it out, but then it popped a few a weeks later. it was really pussy.... and i thought it would dry up because it was healed for couple months, but then it came up again, and popped. her cyst now looks like a puncture hole.. i put something like neo-sporn on it. any recommendation to cure her wound?

I have a 2 year old Scottish Deerhound mix and he has a swollen stomach; and i felt his tummy and it felt very hard; like it wasn't moving when he breathed. he isn't breathing really hard or anything because of it, though. he's acting completely normal. could it be a type of worm in his stomach? or is he just bloated?

Hey, everybody. As I said before, that I'll be getting a pomeranian puppy somewhat in August, my dad's friend's dog will be having puppies pretty soon. Today, at work, my dad gave my mom and I a message that the pregnant dog is licking her stomach lately. I think that this is a sign that she's going to have her puppies real soon, but I'm not 100% sure about this. I don't know if this could be a different reason, but this is what I predict could be the reason. Does anyone else out there have different ideas or suggestions? Thanks! :)

I have just adopted a 51/2 month old Black Great Dane Puppy. We have fallen so in love with her. I have some concerns though. She seems very timid and am not sure if she is just having separation anxiety. She often stays in a corner and watches us at all times. We have had her a week and she has made some improvements. But, we all have to make the effort and get on the floor with her and put her on our laps. She shakes at first and then calms down. Is this normal? Could this simply be separation anxiety from being with the breeder for 5 1/2 months? I am concerned but would never think of parting with her. What do I have to do to make her feel safe? Tinker Bell has our hearts!!

Also, I am trying to find a cage? I can only find the largest size of 48". She is already 60# and I don't think as an adult that would be large enough.

All inquiries are appreciated. There is nothing we won't do for our Tinker Bell.

I have heard that dogs are color blind. does that mean they see black and white, or is it like human color blindness where they blend two colors into one? How do we know they are color blind? they certainly can't tell us!

Ok with a simple answer as go to the vet, one work. I do Have a vet appointment at the end of the week. SO my dog had diarrhea and we believe its from the rawhide that we gave him for at least 3 days in a row. So he had it for 3 days, I was worried, I followed what most people day, which was give him 1 tsp for every 5 lbs of peptol bismol, and so now he no longer has it, well he hasn't used the bathroom since I gave it to him... I think it could also be stress, my entire apt is packed up, we're moving and he knows it so i think it could be one of the reasons. please help me, I want to know wll his constipation ever end???

The lump is about the size of a golf ball and located under his eye on the right side of his face. When I touch it he doesn't react as if it hurts him. It's also about as hard as a rock.

How do I keep my five month old poodle from running everytime the door opens? We take him by the collar to his tie-out but if he gets past you he'll run out the door. If he get's out he runs everywhere in the yard and makes a game of running circles around you and barking. He let's you get within arms length then runs away. How do we teach him not to do this?

I need to litter train my puppy, I don't really know where to start, I've never had a cat and I've always had a backyard with my other dogs. But now I live in an apartment and he's home alone during the day. Any Tips?

do you know what i mean? when a dog licks you, is it really just trying to get the salt off your skin? or is it really showing affection?

I will be showing my gsd for the first time in less than a month in a sv german show not an akc and I know they show different. All I found so far was some rules but nothing more explaining or pictures or whats all involved. Yes, I am doing it with the breeder but they are gone to canada showing for 2 weeks and i like to start practicing now. Thanks

I have a 1 year old Maltipoo. Whenever I walk her I always keep her on a leash. How do I know if I let her off the leash if she will run away from me? I would like to take her the park and play fetch with her. I have at times taken her off her leash in an enclosed back yard and she seems to stay fairly close to me but I have no idea what she would do with no boundaries. How can I train my dog to stay with me when off of a leash?

My 5 month old austrailian sheperd newfoundland pup has recently develope a rash on her hind end and leg. In size both are about the size of a softball, the one on the leg slightly smaller. In apperence they are a green/brown, puss, with scapes on the outside. When we touch them it feels mushy but hard at the same time. At first we thought it was a wound from our other dog[they like to play fight], but now it has started to smell like burnt flesh. If anyone knows what this is and/or a treatment for it, it would be great to let me know. Thanks for your time
