Oh, that is very sad. I hate having a sick animal and feel so bad for him. Fortunately I have a very good new vet that I feel comfortable talking to about this issue. And I like your suggestion about getting a scan or X-ray to see if there is something going on. This is a new problem for...

Hi, I have an 8 year old rescue that has been my buddy for about 7 years. He throws up mostly in the mornings, but sometimes randomly on an empty stomach. Just clear liquid/bile is puked. Behaviour wise he seems pretty normal. I have consulted two vets about this issue and there has been...

Hi, My little guy has been battling a high ph balance for a while now. He first went on Hills S/D for 1.5 months, got a good ph balance and then tried a maintenance diet using Medical Urinary SO (all wet). Just checked again and he is high again and at risk for crystals. Now it is back to...

Thanks for the responses. Yes, him and I did have quite a bit of alone time...so there is a very strong bond. Luckily he is not skittish, just very disinterested in her. I will continue to let her give him treats, etc...in the hopes of one day he shows her some affection. ;-) Cheers.
