Brewster (4 pound poodle) has been on Clavamox for a gum infection/bacteria for months. He takes the antibiotic for 10 days and smell and yellow goo clears up. Then 8-10 days the smell and yellow goo come back. Dental Cleaning and Blood work (kidney & Liver)are all good. Is there any natural/herbal or over the counter treatment I can give him to clear it up or give to make it longer in between giving the Clavamox? Please advise.

recent vomiting and light blood in...
Posted on 2008/09/18 by oscarHello, our 12 week old puppy has had diarrhea for the past three days. We think it started from him eating the some of our other two adult dog's food. We bought some anti-diarrhea liquid which has kaolin and pectin and his stool turned alot more solid and partly white, which is the color of the liquid. We gave him boiled chicken with rice last night and he ate it no problem, but threw it up about 1 1/2 hour later. This morning his diarrhea was back with light blood in it, and he has no appetite. He doesnt't want to eat the chicken and rice. He has been drinking some water and his nose is moist- it was dry last night. Any suggestions before taking him to the vet?

Have I made my dog sick?
Posted on 2008/09/21 by UserI gave my dog a tiny bit (The size of a thumbnail) of a veggie patty. she has been sick with a staph infection (internal) and has been on antibiotics for a month. She is still losing weight. 9 lbs lost. she has a good appetite but is lethargic and has pale inner eyelids and gums. Vet said her RBC is now 15 and her albumin level is still high. Could that be caused from the bit of the veggie patty?
