What should I do for my dog that has broken his tail and is chewing it off? We are unable to get to the vet at the time. He has not been pooping since he has broken his tail.

Advice on what to do
Posted on 2008/10/20 by UserI have a 9 year old Male Boxer. I've started noticing that he has tumors growing in various places on his body. Some are internal and are some are external such as one growing between the pads of his paw. He also has had a couple episodes of falling over and kind of seizing and having labored breathing and sometimes stops breathing for like 15 seconds maybe more. Does it sound like it's going to be an expensive problem if it's treatable? If so, we don't have a lot of money and would it be best to have him put to sleep instead of living with these growths and "seizure" like episodes? I can't stand to see animals suffer and I already feel guilty for not being...

New cat has increased water intake and diarrhea
Posted on 2009/01/26 by UserWe adopted a cat 3 days ago. He was a rescue because we was bitten by a dog, but his stitches are out and the wounds are healed. He has diarrhea and increased food and water consumption. And has been spending a lot of time in the litter box. Any suggestions?

Cat with tail bite
Posted on 2009/02/16 by UserHI My cat was bitten on the base of its tail by another cat. I took him t the vet who cleaned him up and sent him home. The vet said if his tail doesn't start moving it will have to be amputated. The tail did start moving but the wound is still open on top. He keeps licking the ointment off and gnawing at the wound. He even took his own stiches out. I tried to take him to the vet again but was told that he wouldn't be able to see me until Saturday (its monday) and even then he scheduled me into a surgery spot because he thinks the tail has to be amputated. But the tail moves fine, and he hasn't even seen the cat!!!! He seems amputee happy and I do not want the vet...

partial paralysis
Posted on 2007/12/17 by PattersonMy 8 year old German Shepard became sick. I was gone and over the next two days and he became paralyzed. Front legs were really stuff, the back legs could move a little. I took him to a vet and took x-rays with no problems observed. Started him on an IV with antibiotics. I took him home after a couple of days and he is slowly getting better. If you pet or scratch his back along his spine, he will lose muscle function and sit down. At times he drags his left rear leg. At times he can not walk a straight line. After getting him back from the vet’s office, he could run up the driveway at approximately 6 mph. He is up to about 11 mph now and use to run at 16...

PLease help my puppy!
Posted on 2007/12/19 by UserMy 2 year old shih tzu has developed a white muscas-like "string" comming from her left eye. It appears to be stuck to the eye ball, and I was scared to pull on it just in case. The vet told me to apply a very diluted salt-water solution to the eye, but is there anything else that I could do to help heal her? Do you have any idea what could be the problem?

Eye Injury
Posted on 2007/12/26 by bryan1 y/o Husky, white w/ blue eyes. Cat scratched dog in the eye on Dec 24. That night and the morning of the 25th dog kept eye closed. evening of 25th eye was fully opened again, vision appears normal. Original color of eye was light blue. Now eye is a yellowish/golden color. Could the scratch have somehow changed the pigmentation of the eye or will this clear up in time ?
