Sometimes if your dog is sensitive to specific things like dyes, chemicals, or smells that are found in these soaps they can develop a rash which can cause red bumps, sores, and hair loss. If your vet thinks that the soaps could be the reason then make sure that you or your groomer is using hypoallergenic shampoo. Usually this means that they will be using a milder oatmeal shampoo, it still smells good but it may cost a little more.
Make sure you visit the vet...
Good luck!
Of course, your Vet should be your first source for follow-up information. You can call the office and mention that one area that keeps opening.
You can make a saline solution, 2 tsos of sea salt or salt to two cups water. Gently clean the area around the incision and pat dry. If you have an antiseptic spray, you could try that. Sprays are usually better as creams and gels can attract dirt.
Do not use Hydrogen Peroxide or anything with cortisone in it.
Those you are closest to----------- like your parents, maybe one friend, and eventually your spouse----- those top relationships sit on the top. And it moves down from there. When you go through something traumatic, you have less energy to deal with those on the lower steps or tiers. After only two months, you can't expect to be at the top yet.
It's possible the medication is irritating your dog's stomach, so ring up your vet and see if they can recommend an over-the-counter nausea med like pepcid. You'll need to get proper dosing information on any OTC med from your vet.
Another thing to consider is how your dog eats. If she bolts down dry kibble as fast as possible and then drinks a lot of water, the food blows up in her stomach and can only come back up.
Yes, like you I found out the hard way. My vet told us that every time a summer holiday rolls around that involves picnicking, BBQing etc., he can count on having several pancreatitis patients at his door. It's such a serious and sometimes fatal condition, and most people have never heard of it.
Bile acids are usually Yellow........Green is a red flag.....You need to get your guy to a Vet ASAP......Puppies this young cannot get dehydrated......Dehydration alone can be fatal......If your guy has not had all his puppy vaccines, then this may be the beginning of a serious issue......Do not wait any longer.......My first thought (With green) is Rat poison! If this is a possibility, you must seek treatment, NOW.......Please, come back and let us know what you find out......
My dog threw up 4 times last Friday, Feb 6. I took him to the vet. She thought it may be either obstruction or panreatitis. She gave him antivomit medicine and a fluid shot. She gave him low residue vet formula for him to eat. He stopped eating and threw up again on Wed, Feb 11. His last BM I am aware of was on Wednesday. I went back to the vet on Thursday on Feb 12. A different vet saw him this time. He didn't suggest obstruction.
Hi there, So, you are having a baby with him, is that right? Are you both teenagers? Lots of big things coming your way very soon. Are you living with his parents too or are you are with yours and he's with his? Sorry for all the questions, I'm just trying to understand.
Do you have any support from your own family?
On the surface, I think it is smart to expect certain things out of the father of our children.
Get physically active and fill up your time with things that can make you happy. Do things that are different from the things you did with him. Make some new friends from a different group of people. Change your life in a positive direction and don't give yourself much time alone- even much time to think!! All you can do is distract yourself-- but the funny thing, is that the longer you do this, the better it works. And one day, you will wake up and find that your heart aches less.
