Excessive fluid in abdomen.
My DOGUE DE BORDEAUX who is 3.5 yrs old has a large amount of fluid in his abdomen but the rest of this body looks anorexic. He doesn't seem to have any pain but generally he has never been one to show it even if there was. We have done a heart worm test, fluid extraction, blood test, x-rays and even ultrasounds on his abdomen & heart. So far there is nothing indicating what it could be to my vet and even the specialists we were referred to cannot pin point what it is. They have only told me a few different things it could be such as rare cancers or rare diseases. The only thing that showed in the blood test was low protein. We had him on diuretics and heart medication which very, very slowly released some of the fluid and gave him a little more energy. All this trial and error is getting quite costly, so i was hoping you could give some insight or advice on what to do.
Cat toileting.
My Cat Ezio insists on using the hard floor or my daughter’s bed or wardrobe as a toilet. I’ve tried everything, three litters, different litters, empty litters, feliway, training them to use the toilet seat, I mean everything. And still, everyday I have to clean up poo from the corridor, and run water on the laundry trough to wash down the urine. What else is there
Base narrow canines - puppy
Our 8 week old cocker spaniel puppy has just had a vet check and the vet pointed out to us that her two bottom canine teeth are growing straight up (rather than out) and are poking into her gums / palate. The vet recommended pulling these two teeth, but I feel she is too young to go under anesthetic and have a operation. Is this the sort of thing that could right itself being that she is so young? Are there any other options other than removing the teeth? Thanks
