Glad you didn't get wet...but be SURE she's able to urinate. That's critical.

Sometimes, though, I think brain-storming helps. Most of us will admit up front we have little or no experience or expertise. Sometimes I post because no one else has, and I want to give reassurance to someone who has reached out for help. I'm always fairly confident that someone with more info and ...

I would suggest getting an opinion from another vet. Obviously, something is going on. It sounds like the dog is either in pain or insecure. How long has this been going on? Is the dog handicapped in any way? Sometimes handicapped pets do this when their owners are out of their range of sight, I thi...

Here's the link. Should work for your llama, too!!

Most definitely!!! There is a picture and story about a llama on wheels. I think it's on the Eddie's Wheels site. I will try and find the link and post it.

You can learn to express...and that is URGENT!! If he isn't emptying his bladder completely, he can develop a urinary infection. If he's not going at all, death can occur within 24 hours.

Ask your vet if he/she will take payments, and if not, could they possibly refer you to someone who would? I don't know if any vet scho...

I wonder if someone makes something more sturdy? I'm picturing something like back braces they make for humans.

Good research, Barbara!! That might give them some leverage. They might suggest to the breeder that unless she helps, they will file a complaint with the BBB. They also need to make the breeder aware that they're aware of a previous complaint.

I wish I had an answer for you, but really don't. Have you consulted your vet? I think for now I would mix something really good with her special diet. I'm thinking different types of baby food. That works with my cats. Maybe make 1/4 of her food baby food or something appealing. If that doesn't wor...

Please keep us posted. I agree with approaching the breeder. If they refuse, Small Claims Court might be the way to go. Have you found any assistance yet?
