Thanks, guys! I have heard of panosteitis and researched it, but wouldn't it show up on an X-ray? Both my parents met with the vet/surgeon (same...
I'm just a really defensive person. I may not be a vet, but I am in the health industry and, first of all, the majority of pain and discomfort is...
That's like me saying I have lower abdominal pain and then you suggesting I consider bowel resection surgery lol. It went from 0 - 100 really fast.
I’m not arguing with anybody. I said in my first or second post here that I plan to stop extensive exercising for a while. Not once did I try and...
He is not overweight, though. The vet is very happy with his weight. He's actually quite thin. But he's very tall (he is very long legs).
Yeah, we do have some Advil for puppies that we got at the vets the last time. But he is only allowed to take one every 24 hours and he had one...
My 7 month old lab has been crying today and yesterday and I think it's because he's in pain. Last night for about 10 minutes he just started...
Totally normal. My (now 7 month old) lab would never go immediately after eating. It was usually about an hour or two after eating. Also, it's...

If it doesn't settle in a couple of days, maybe bring her to the vet and get her checked for Giardia. It's a parasitic infection that is very...
With my older dog (lab/st bernard mix) whose now 2.5, we didn't have any restrictions. We got him at 8 weeks old and we didn't know any better. I...
You need a schedule. My parents got my sister (who was 19 at the time) a puppy because she begged and begged. My mom was away on business and...
Totally depends on the dog. My chocolate lab is nearly 7 months and is VERY well behaved. I left him unsupervised for about 30 minutes at a time...
Hi guys! So we just heard back from the vet who said the X-rays showed very minor OCD in his right shoulder :( The elbows were good. They said...
My puppy is 6 months old now and doesn’t bite. He will sometimes put his mouth around our hands, but never bites down. However, when he was about...
At 8 weeks, my puppy weighed 8lbs. He was a little guy when we got him. Now he is 6 months old and weighs 62 lbs. He’s a very tall boy! His legs...
Our first dog as a family was a lab/st. Bernard cross. He’s currently 2.5 years old and no longer lives with us. Our little one is 6 months. We...
My puppy, who is currently 6 months old, slept through the night at around 10 weeks. We crate-trained him.
Thanks, guys! We have scheduled an X-ray appointment for tomorrow morning :/
Thanks for your reply! Yes, my mom and I agree that we should get him X-rayed soon. We may go on Friday or early next week. The waiting is the...
