I have the greatest 8yr. old lab/pit mix who has been having issues for the last 2 years with his health. I have taken him to see the vet many times because he had been vomiting almost every other day, usually just water. My vet told me not to worry he is just drinking his water to fast but it...

Hello, my dog has been refusing to eat for 3 days now, when We put food in front of his face he turns his head away from it or leaves. We had him taken to the vet yesterday because he was refusing to eat. The vet didn't really tell us what was wrong with him, they said that his blood is clean...

Hi, The question is below. Here's a little context. I need to try and put weight on my dog fast. Long story, she's skinny and losing weight slowly and vet can't figure out what's going on after several tests (next stop internal specialist) Vet says at this point it falls under the rare...

Hi, I joined this forum in hopes that someone can help me out. I adopted my male pomeranian (Sparky) almost ten years ago. The vet thought he was about four or five at the time, so we assume he's around fourteen or fifteen now. About two years ago he was diagnosed with an enlarged heart. Our vet...
