They gave her clavamox the first couple times. When it re occured for the 3 rd time they gave her Baytril. She also sent us home with a couple of samples (little tubs) of probiotic powder. Hopefully it will boost her immune system....I guess if it re occurs I can ask about the culture. She did not s...

Anybody have any advice about how to get rid of re occuring UTI in an old pup. She's had one off and on for months now. Seems like every time she finishes her antibiotics, it comes back a week later. This has happened for about 5 rounds of antibiotics since September. I put apple cider vinegar in he...

I actually found out she has a tumor in her intestine when she had her anal glands emptied the other day. So now we have that to contend with among all her other senior issues. Sadly, I think her time with us is growing to a close. Vet said she does not want to biopsy because of her 'advanced age'.

She was on the digestive care a/d food hills science diet from the vet. I see the other you are talking about. My only concern with that one is it is Low fat and she has lost so much weight. 60 lbs a year ago and now only 36....mostly all her muscle from not moving and trying to figure out these tum...

Ok. Thanks for the info. I do not think it is related to the previcox because she has been on that for 3 or so years and the problems have been in correlation with the inactivity. She was on the prescription stuff from the vet but it was too expensive and she was not interested in eating it....I hav...

Hi guys. My dog is 14 and has lost the use of her hind legs. She has developed some digestive issues since no longer walking. (she does have a cart but her time in it is limited) The doctor has prescribed Tylan powder and said she could stay on it the rest of her life. Wondering if anyone has experi...

Thank you Carol. I am really hoping this will perk her up a bit. There have been so many changes in her these last few months that i feel are because she is not moving. The will of a dog to go on is tremendous. Most humans would give up in her situation. We will just take it slow. Thank you for reas...

Ok so I decided to order her a doggie wheelchair which will be here next week. Excited to see her move again! Any suggestions on an exercise program? She hasnt been able to 'go for a walk' in a year. Before that she was just hobbling around the yard. Stand up, walk a few steps, sit, repeat. She real...

yes i have been looking into the dog wheel chairs. trying to figure out which would be best for her...any suggestions? there are a lot out there!

Ok thanks for the suggestions. In reference to her not 'being as regular'. She seems to be going through phases where she will constantly have small amount of poop coming out. And then following that a big blow out. Seems to be on about a 2 week cycle. She's had a couple bacterial infections but the...

Hello. I am trying to figure out how to further help my 14 year old dog (Shadow). She is a border collie/ chow mix (we think). She has had hip issues for about 4 years now. It started with just a glitch but about 2 years ago the vet found arthritis in her back. Its really the hips that give her the ...
