Approximately two and a half months ago, my family found a starving pit bull on the street with a spiked choke collar. He’s an absolute sweetheart but he has a negative reaction to stuffed dogs (in such a way were pretty sure they were training him to be a bait dog) and plays a bit rough when he...

I want to share this for anyone struggling with the questions about when to say goodbye to their dog, and what to decide for a dog diagnosed with kidney failure (or anything terminal). Our 14 (almost 15) year old female pitbull passed away at home last weekend after being diagnosed with kidney...

Does glaucoma pain cause seizures or syncope? Unbalance gait and vomiting? I put my dog down yesterday because I thought she had a brain tumor related pain. She was having bouts of pains that made her cry out and her eyes looked like they were going to pop out. Usually this bouts will make her...

I just can't believe how quickly we got here, both in his life and after finding out he was definitely terminal barely two weeks ago. It's been such a whirlwind and I know we are doing right by him but I just can't even envision a world after he's gone. He is our sweet boy, our perfect dog, our...

My dog Louise is the love of my life. She is a four year old Lhasa Apso that I received from my grandfather. She was abused as a puppy and we have had many difficulties training her, even with professional help. But her most serious issue has been attacking me. Three times now, she has caused...

Hello everyone! I am an assistant manager at an apartment and two dogs that I thought were pitt bulls but others have said they are black mouth cur hounds (a young mom and her puppy) came around and killed some of our ducks. The residents are trying to get the pound to pick them up and put them...

Hi Everyone, I am new to the boards. I just put my 13 year old yellow lab down and am so sad because I don't know if I made the right decision. Sippy was a happy dog who had lost her quality of life. However, the factor that put us over the edge in making the hard decision was the fact that...

Hello Well after 18 years of great companionship my dog is growing sicker and sicker. He has an enlarged heart and 3 tumors all resting against the lowest part of his throat. It makes him gag and couph as if something is stuck in his throat, We took him for treatment to reduce the size of the...
