How do you know if your dog has worms?Q: Hello. i have a 10 yr old chow mixed with lab and all she does is eat. when someone is eating she will bother the person while they eat. when my 1 yr old cousin is eating she will eat the crumbs off the floor that he drops and sometimes take his food when he walks around with a cookie in his hand. i had a 12 yr old cousin that was always feeding my dog table food and things from the fridge. i had to break my dog from eating table food and stop my cousin from feeding my dog things from the fridge. my dog has always had good health so i was wondering if my dog has worms or just not broken from what my cousin used to feed her. thanks. A: Always worth while to have stool checked for worms but it does sound more behavioral to me.consider working with good trainer in your home
Dose?Q: To whom it may concern: i just returned from the vet, and my dog received metronidazole 250 mg. the bottle lists the medication as mrx waltham canine low fat. my first question is: are these two names the same medication. 2nd: if this is metronidazole, what would be the dose per day to give my dog, who weighs 22 lbs. (beagle) the vet forgot to inform me, and it's not listed on the bottle. thank you. A: I suggest you contact your veterinarian to get the directions.
MedicationQ: What effect would the antibotic called dicural at 45 mg have on nursing 7 week old puppies? A: According to the manufacturer's website, the product should not be used during an animal's rapid-growth period, and dogs are particularly susceptible.
Sore spotQ: I am jsut trying to figure out why my dog is smelling soo bad! we found a small spot on his shoulder that looks like his hair folicils are irritated and oozing... i am not sure what it is from or if this is causing his bad smell. he is acting normal he is just smells real bad even after his bath. A: Could be overgrowth of yeast or bacteria on skin. consider chlorihexiderm shampoo from 1800petmeds every few days which treats both. if no help see your vet
