My dog was diagnosed with immune mediated Thrombocytopenia on Friday. She was peeing blood, and had multiple petechiae on her belly which have turned into several large dark purple/blue patches about 4" in diameter. She has thrown up blood several times thursday night thru sunday am (looks like coffee grounds) puddles about the size of a dinner plate. She was given a shot of Vincristine in the office and is on Prednisone, cimetidine, and azathioprine. She has stopped eating, but does drink.

Cat urinating when upset or angry
Posted on 2008/10/27 by SarahHi. I have a 13yr old cat. Ever since she was young, she urinates when she's upset with us. We have taken her to vets and its definitely behavioural. She's not sick. It's getting worse and we've tried all the tricks. I have heard about behavoiural medications. I don't want to put my cat on meds, but its better that having to give her away. We can't cope anymore, but don't want to give up on her. She's very special to us. Please could you advise me on which behavioural medications to use, or any other advice you may have that may help? Thank you so much in advance.

Frequent Urinary Tract Infections
Posted on 2008/10/28 by JennyMy four year old female labrador retriever has had about 2 to 3 urinary tract infections a year for the past three years. Our vet treats with antibiotics and the infection seems to clear up. She went to the vet three days ago and was diagnosed with another urinary tract infection. The vet put her on clavomox, 2, 250mg pills twice a day for ten days and gave her Hill's Perscription Diet c/d. The vet believes the infections may be caused by her food. We were feeding her Iams Active Health Large Breed. Would her diet really cause urinary tract infections? Is she getting the proper nurtition from the Prescription diet. She also has a folded in vagina. We clean her...
