Ivermectin for Heartworm Prevention?I have seen the answers to ivermectin in cats for mites and I am going to try it on my goldendoodle I have in the house. I have a bottle of 1% ivermectin and I want to mix it right for heartworm prevention for my dogs. I don't want to overdose with this because I know this is powerful stuff, so how would I mix the ivermectin and what do I mix with for consumption (propylene glycol)? I have several German shepherds and they are all about 60-80 lbs. each, they hate taking the safeguard and I thought if I can get them on this every month maybe that would take care of the intestinal worms also.

Dog Peeing On Everything?My dog is 14. Five years ago, she tore both her hocks one at a time. She is now peeing on everything in the house, even herself when she is laying down. She does it inside and out. She also has a very hard time getting up. I brought her to the vet and all she did is give me Gabapentin. She said it's for her arthritis. She is also now having bowel movements in the house. All she does is sleep 90% of the time or just stares into space. She always faces away from me. (My husband passed in March and she always clung to him). I am wondering if she is in pain? Is it time for her to go? I asked the vet and no response. She used to play with the other dog even if it was just a couple of minutes but hasn't done that in a while. Any ideas would help.

Recovery Time for a Dog with Parvo?So it is day 5 now that she's been at the hospital. This morning she started to eat small amounts and wants to walk around and get out her cage now.

Recovery Time for a Puppy with Parvo?I got a 2 month old Golden Retriever, it was quite playful and active, but all of a sudden on Saturday stopped eating anything. The next morning we saw bloody diarrhea all over as well as vomit, and he had gotten worse. The vet gave him some antibiotics and sent us home. He woke up to drink water and also walked to his spot to urinate and remove stool. On Monday at 9 am we rushed to the vet.

Recovery Time for a Dog with Parvo?My 2 and a half month old puppy is suffering from parvo virus. He has been being treating since last Tuesday and today is Sunday so it's been 6 days.

Why Did My Dog Die So Fast?My 10 year old Shi Tzu mix died very suddenly. Within minutes of my husband letting her and her sibling outside to go potty she was gone. They always run to the fence line to bark at the neighbor dogs or neighbors out in their yard. Our neighbor saw them running towards the fence where he was working and then he saw one dog was running around and Daisy was laying on the ground next to the fence.

My Dog Died Suddenly?My 14 year old dog was healthy and had no known health conditions. She went outside during the day to lay in the garden for a while, acting completely normal, and a few hours later we were calling her in. She didn't look comfortable the way she was lying and when she tried to get up her back legs weren't working. She was trying so hard, but we had to lift her in.
