How can I make my sick dog a little more comfortable?
My dog has kennel cough. I took her collar off but I was wondering how I can make her feel more comfortable and heal a little faster? Any recipes or remedies? Anything you do for your dog when they’re sick?
yes she’s been to the vet and has antibiotics. I was just wanting to baby her a little while she goes through this.
She goes to doggy daycare every day with at least 20 other dogs so I informed them she got it and she won’t be going back for three more weeks, poor girl.

Could there be a link between rat feces and dog illness?
It occured to me yesterday that my dogs sometime eat the rat feces which they kick out of there cage. Now I had a shih tzu who got this strange illness after we got the rats. I am not sure exactly how long after as this was a few years ago. She developed neurological problems which affected her left side. She would also throw up every so often like every other day. Finally the vomiting stopped completely after a few months. Yes we took her to the vet. They had no diagnose for the vomiting or her neurological problems. About a month ago, she was diagnosed with autoimmune hemolytic anemia which has no actual known cause. She had to be put down a week later. I am trying to figure out if there could be a possible link between any of this and the rat feces. It is also quite possible that this could have been genetic since my grandma bought her at a pet store and she likely came from a puppy mill. Now I have a malchi puppy which is a maltese/chihuahua mix.
She is 2.4 pounds. I have seen her eat the feces once and I am trying to keep her away from it. I just want to know how harmful it could be. I want to make sure that it won’t cause any of the other diseases my shih tzu may have had. The shih tzu was about 4 when this all started happening.
She was sick but it was due to her eating a pill of immodium. She is not sick now. I am just scientifically trying to see if there could be a link.

When a dog’s nose gradually turns pink does it indicate illness of some sort?
Our dog’s nose continues to grow flesh-colored pink. We learned aspergillus mold poisoning can cause this. She’s been treated and the mold source has been eliminated. Though she doesn’t act sick, her nose continues turning more and more pink.

How do I get the sick dog smell out of my apartment?
My dog (Rottweiler) was recently sick with an intestinal parasite (she’s fine now). Needless to say, she went to the bathroom (diarrhea) and vomited numerous times all over my apartment. Even though I cleaned it up as it happened, I think the smell has somehow embedded itself into the carpet.
No matter what I do, I cannot get the smell out of certain rooms. I’ve tried using bleach, incense, vacumming, baby powder, opening up all the windows, air fresheners, fans, etc.
Nothing works. No matter what I do, I cannot get the smell out and it’s really starting to get to me. I might be able to get the smell out for an hour or two at best, but it always comes back.
At first, I thought my dog was the source of the smell, so I have been giving her a bath everyday, so that rules that source out.
What can I do to get rid of the smell? Do I really have to get my carpets cleaned or is there a cheaper way?
Thanks!

My dog refuses to eat dog food and human food. He isn’t showing any signs of illness. What could be wrong?
That’s a given Tasha.
He is 2 yrs old. I just don’t know if it’s something that will pass or I should see a vet. He’s already getting real skinny. If he doesn’t eat within the next couple days, a vet trip might be made.
Tried switching differant dog foods. No matter what kind of dog food, he won’t eat it.

Can I adopt a sick dog from the animal shelter?
I came across a limping, starving and timid stray dog this weekend. I couldn’t catch her myself so I called animal control. I was not able to talk to animal control directly but am going to the shelter tomorrow morning to try to get her out. Will they let me adopt her or do they euthanize sick and injured dogs without giving them a chance? They picked her up Sunday afternoon and were closed today. She’ll have been there for less than 48 hours when I try to adopt her tomorrow morning. I’m worried sick – I really want to save her.
A) The dog didn’t appear too sick or too injured – but definitely careworn and skittish. B) Unfortunately, the shelter doesn’t answer their phones. C) If I can get her out of there she’ll have top class vet care, a huge home on a huge lot, and loving guardians who will spoil her to no end.
My husband and I went to the pound this morning and found her there. She looked sad; but she is safe for now. They informed us that we have to wait 72 hours before adopting her in case someone’s looking for her. We gave her a bag of treats and will visit her again tomorrow.
