IamAnderson:
another one was asking me if I'd be interested in entering my dog into a dog fight he was planning.

oluomoadebayo:
It might be a tick fever. Majority of our vets have no clue and every ailment is a parvo to them. No blood sample, no nothing but they will be shouting parvo parvo.

IamAnderson:
sorry I couldn't answer earlier, I had to run some errands quickly.
parvo is a deadly disease, I will advice you to clean everywhere that puppy has been in your house with bleach so the other one won't get infected.
keep the uninfected puppy away from the infected one, don't let them play together till this ordeal is over.
also agbogeh is right, the dog needs to be admitted and also given constant care, make sure the dog is hydrated if not the puppy will die slowly.
I'm sorry this happened but you need to know parvo is a 50:50 chance of survival. some dogs survive, some die.
just make sure the other puppy is kept away from the infected one so the disease won't spread.
I hope your puppy recovers from the virus.

kobosmart:
tell that to the parvo virus lounging in your dog right now

Kelvin30286063:
Update, so I'm at the vet clinic now, they confirmed what you said that it's parvo but it's at its early stage and they commended me for bringing her early.
Bottom line, they listed injections, drugs and charged me 15k.
Though I'm not financially buoyant right now but no amount of money is worth the life of my dogs

Kelvin30286063:
Guy please help, one of my dogs has been vomiting since 2 days not.
I don't remember her eating anything unusual. She vomits everything I give her and won't eat, now she's vomiting saliva since there is no food in her belly.
The crazy part is that she's still very active and plays around with the other one.
I have tried to understand what is going on with her but I can't pinpoint anything.
I'm really worried cuz she's so thin and weak.
She's not late on vaccination

They are both 4 months old.

I have called the vet but he can't be there at the moment, what can I give her to stop the constant vomiting so she can eat before the vet comes?

dinofx21:
yeah more of a rottweiler

starbuck:
"Come in, it doesn't bite"
What would be your reaction

mhd5757:
I don't know why, anytime I put food for my male gsd, he will not start eating immediately, he will just stand there and be looking at me, then when I go he will start eating, My rott/gsd bitch on the other hand does not waste any time, she will attack the food immediately but my male gsd only does that when he is very very hungry but on a normal day, he will just be standing there looking at me and be waiting for me to go before he starts eating, I find that kind of annoying, why can't he just act like a normal dog, if it is meat now, he will not waste any time.

Do any of your dogs do that? Or is it just mine?

Bestchisom:
You are very correct... I agree with you

areahints:
hmmmm ok! i think you mean soft bones or cooked ones, i give her raw bones from the market

vincentjk:
That's a very good idea but this straw like drain isn't for Gustaf at all, he would rip it off in seconds unlike Murphy

areahints:
Happy new month nairaland!

Have you overfed your dog before?

Luna doesn't turn down a meal, ever.... So on Christmas day which is a day to her turning 6months, the whole compound was prepared to spoil her, Luna ate rice from like 6 different sources, then each rice came with chicken bones, after that some chicks came over to the house and when they were leaving, they offered their own gift, a polythene bag full of bones, apparently it was their way to warm the dog towards them, I honestly would have kept that bag but at that time I was sleeping, I was informed later in the day.

Evening time came and I prepared her doggy food, but she was not happy to eat it. Which was highly unusual. I left her to check back later but immediately went back to her as she was vomiting... Assorted vomit ooo! with lots of bones and rice, funny thing is she tried to eat it! Like say she no want the meal to waste, I changed her location to within the house, and she threw up again! Same level, bones and rice, I now took her to the last space I could keep her in, she also threw up there! I was freaking out at this point! 3 is a crowd right?

I cleaned up all the mess and took her doggy food away, then kept watch over her for like an hour, within belly rubs and soothing talks she calmed down enough for me to calm down too.

Sorry I've not been updating frequently, will definitely try to make up for that! In the meantime thanks for reading this!

vincentjk:
before the surgery

The tumor on Gustaf's neck was growing back again, the pain alone was terrifying and i wouldn't watch my dog go through such pain


Alerted my vet about the development, he suggested we extract the the fluid and clean the wound up then see how it turns out which unfortunately didn't work as planned

My vet had to inject him with a substance that'd make him to sleep so his work be easier but hell no, he was struggling with me so i had to bind his mouth with a drip hose since I've no mouth guard

mhd5757:
My male gsd too looses his appetite each time I deworm him, that is why I stoped. any time I feel he has worms now I would just use pills, it doesn't make him loose his appetite like the injection does. But I have only given him antirabies vaccine ones, since then I haven't given him anymore and I will not, i am confident that he does not have rabies because he does not go outside the compound to socialise with other dogs.

Godson124:
I give her waste indomie and a times local food yet it won't eat

IamAnderson:
Wow nice! Even at this young age

oluomoadebayo:
Nairaland is a funny place where everyone has an opinion. Some guys will even teach you how to sleep with your wife even though they are single. It's fun, though.

Henrynwachuks:
pls how do I post pics on this forum
I have tried but it keeps coming up blank

oluomoadebayo:
And you will buy a castrated dog? Please be honest. Most of you here are just here to attack the messenger. Just listen to yourself.

oluomoadebayo:
And I will instruct the new buyers not to breed or how do I control the bad gene?

Eveezy:
Butt licking? Really? Cos I spoke the truth? Do I know olumoadebayo from anywhere that I will butt lick? Dont get me angry, I yielded cos I was tired of dragging this issue, do not ever make a comparism of such to me, yall are deciding to see dis one sided. Please dont mention me if dis is wat u have to say
