Internal Injuries in Dogs

I woke up this morning and my dog was trembling and her breathing was at very fast pace than usual. I’m worry because she doesn’t want to eat or drink water. She is just laying down and is breathing like if she has ran for hours. I checked her gums and they aren’t pale but her ears are a bright red and really warm.

My dog was involved in a hit and run a few days ago, she was briefly checked out and was told she should be fine but now she is breathing extremely fast, her stomach is a DEEP red! And swollen she doesn’t want to eat or drink anything and doesn’t really walk or want to be touched

My dogs was hit by a car last night. His leash had broken when two other dogs passed by on the other side of the street, and when it broke he didn’t realize he was off leash and slowly walked in to the street to try and greet the dogs. The car that hit him was going at a fairly slow speed, maybe 5-10 mph but it hit his entire body on his left side. He didn’t yell at all when he was hit, doesn’t seem to have any broken bones, just a few small cuts on top of his paws from falling most likely and was just pretty shooken up right after it happened. He was able to calm down within a few minutes though and stopped shaking. He was also able to walk fine immediately after and was able to walk back to the sidewalk on his own. He seemed to be almost completely back to his normal self within 20 mins. It was hard to tell if he was completely okay or just tired because when I took him in he went right to sleep, but he normally sleeps around that time. It’s now the morning after and he seems almost completely fine still, but I’m still worried about internal issues. I know they can cost a lot of money to do X-rays and wanted an opinion on if he needs to see someone for that or if maybe a general physical exam would be enough.. or if we need to take him in at all.

I noticed my dogs glands were huge all of a sudden. Took him to the vet and he said he had lymphoma, without a test. For three days his stomach expanded and he started having diarrhea and blood. Took him back to the vet and he gave him steroids. I argued with him and said by the looks of his stomach could something have ruptured? He said no it was lymphoma. I put him down three days ago and Im torn. I told the vet he was throwing up everyday for two weeks straining real hard two months earlier when he gave him a prescription to settle his stomach. Im 58 and a disabled vet. Buddy was all I had. He was an 8 year old jackrussell. I disagree with the vet and think something ruptured. I used my house payment money to have him cremated and returned to me. Im on a very limited income and would have done anything to fix him. Ive cryed for three days and cant get it out of my mind. I still think we could have saved him.

My dog kyrie got hit by a door when my dad went outside, my dog got in the way and he got hit really hard. At first he didnt move at all.His heartbeat was slow.We tried giving him CPR and it worked. He started breathing but he still needed some help. He was breathing really hard and it sounded like he was in pain.I want to know what is his condition or what this could mean. By the way he was kinda unconcious at first and he was hit on his right side.I love him please help

Hi, I lost my 15 year old spaniel two weeks ago. One moment he was fine and jumping around ready for a walk. Next he was lying down and wouldn't move. His feet and nose went cold and his gums very pale. He also seemed to be labouring around his abdomen. The vet stabilised him but told me the scan showed up a mass near his spleen and appeared to show fluid in the abdomen. She advised me to euthanise as surgery would be a huge deal for him at his age and with poor prognosis. After agonising, I agreed to put him down. I am tormented that I made the wrong decision as although elderly, he was fine until that point. Should I, could I have done more for him?
Thank you so much in advance.

My 5 my old Boston terrier/great pyrnese,st benard mix was hit by back tire of car in driveway. He tried to crawl off. With his front legs. He had LIL blood in his mouth,but it's stopped. ,no stoolscoming out. He is breathing hard, he can wag tail, lift head n move front paws. His gums are pink. He hasn't moved bk legs. Feels like one side like his ribs toward bk legs has slight knot. His spine don't seem to feel like fractures. He's very alert. I'm worried bt internal damage. And his breathing goes from rapid to hard breaths, at times like he holds it a sec. It's been almost hr. We hve him laying on his side not letting him move.. See no blood from nose, ears, or his back-end. I can't afford to take him to vet what can I do to ease his pain. ?and keep from making him do more damage?

should i be worried if my dogs stomach is hard and she dont want to move when she does she crys, she has pooped but very little right after she poops she vomits i did get her to eat but she still does not want to move she is shaking and whinning

My 10yr old French Mastiff fell into a small pond, similar to a pond you would put in a flower bed. Took him to vet to be checked out. They stuck a small needle into his stomach and it produced blood. Vet informed me that my dog would probably pass within 24 hrs. Said it was a tumor or something? I'm lost and confused.....

My dog was in a dog fight and has a hole in her chest from the bite. It's now starting to buldge and when I go to pet her, her skin almost feels like bubble wrap. Bubbly in a way.?? Could that be internal bleeding or fluid?? I'm scared.

My dog was hit by a car about 11 and a half hours ago, and has seemed fine, I am just really concerned about him. He only had a few scratches and scrapes, as the car was screeching to a halt. I don't know if the speed the car was moving at could have simply let him go away with no injuries. Once he was hit, he rolled a little bit, then SPRINTED at least 4 blocks to our garage. He was kinda jumpy for about 20 minutes, but now seems to be fine. At least I hope he is.

My Yorkshire terrier passed away very very suddenly and I am having a very difficult time coming to terms with it. He had been frontlined a week before he passed and did have an upset stomach for a day or two after, but it passed and he was eating and drinking normally as far as I know. He was completely normal and playful the day before his death, and the morning of he appeared to be fine. He followed my mom outside and was playing around her while she loaded up the car. She was in a hurry and didn't make sure he was back inside. She backed out of the driveway and then noticed him in front of her laying in the middle of the driveway like he was sleeping. He even had his legs crossed the way he does when he sleeps. She has a small SUV and it is possible that she simply backed over him while he was already laying down, we just don't know! Or maybe he got hit with the car on his head? She jumped out of the car, grabbed him and me, and we rushed him to the vet but he passed in the car on the way there. I feel so terrible because I was panicked and yelling. I wish I had known to be calm. The vet said he did not have any broken bones or any signs of trauma, and believes he had a stroke or a brain aneurysm. Ralfie just had his wellness check in June and his blood work, enzymes, etc were all good. He did have bad teeth but we were monitoring them: he was only 3.5 lbs and doing anesthesia again made us very nervous. He had a dental in 2014. We planned to keep an eye on them as well as his white blood cell count (normal in June). He was only 10 years old. Is it possible Ralfie got hit with the car but didn't show any trauma or outward signs?? I had his body for over a day after before cremating him: the fluid that came out of his nose was clear bubbles. He was wearing a diaper but it appeared to be normal urine. I didn't see any blood at all. Can you shed any light on this? I am devastated and feel like I can't move forward. I would like to know what your opinion is please.

what does it mean if my dog is bleeding subcutaneously in the quick of her nails? is this a concern? her nails are trimmed occasionally and i cut them myself. i know how to trim and i have never cut the quick and always leave some nail. she has gotten in many dog fights and i just think they are bleeding because of the trauma of the fights and her using her nails to fight but they are all bleeding internally and she doesn't like when I try to touch them or look at them. i just want to know if it is serious. there are no serious symptoms, she just dislikes her paws being touched?

My puppy sophie has had previous surgery for eating a needle. And just recently, two weeks ago she ate floss, which she had another surgery for lasy sunday. Everything seemed fine, except today she vomitted a little bit of floss. We took her to the vet cause of that and also because she was very depressed this morning and cold. The doctor said she was not good at all just by looking at her. Is there any way she's having internal bleeding- the vet said she had to get 12 incesions in order to remove the floss she had. If thats the case, is it wrong to put her through another surgery? She's a strong girl never cried. And i love her. What else could it be, if not internal bleeding? She was eating normal and deinking lots of water. For right now he has on fliuds and stronger anti biotics.

Our dog ( jack Russell) was involved in a collision with a car to his left side including his head.
We took him to the vets and following an initial examination he was left for a couple of hours, he had x rays and pain relief by needle. We were informed that there was no spine damage and no broken bones he was allowed home and we were given tablets (tramadol hcl 10mg)
to administer twice daily. We returned to the vets the following day and told them that the dog couldn't stand and was lethargic, the reply was that it was to be expected they gave him some additional pain relief and we are due to return Friday. He is still unable to stand without support and if the support is released in any way he just sinks to the floor.
We make sure he is getting water but he refuses food, my wife has to assist with his toilet needs and she massages his legs and body twice daily, he shows no sign of pain but continues to lay in his bed, he can move his head around but every thing below his neck appears quite still. Our concern is that from a dog with a definite mind of his own he his looking quite forlorn, is this to be expected and will he recover with our help.

kind regards DAVE HUMPHREYS.

Our dog is a weimreiner. He’s almost 10 years old. His name is Buddy. Buddy has had no health problems, he acts like a puppy.. he runs around and people can’t believe he’s that old. He’s been very youthful. On Saturday we went to go vacuum the front room and he was on the couch. He began to climb off the couch and he began to stumble.. his back legs just gave out and he continued to fall all over the place.. he hit the pool table.. fell flailed his body about and then laid on his side frozen.. probably of if fear. We took him to the vet immediately. They ran blood tests and it’s determined that he has a bleed somewhere. His blood isn’t clotting and his blood count is low. He was fatigued, pale gums, sickly looking. He didn’t pass any of the physical tests.. like picking up his back paws and placing them back down. He didn’t cry when they poked him.. didn’t flinch when she tugged on his ears. They kept him over night and gave him fluids. They put him on antibiotics and antiflammatories. We came to get him the next morning and he seemed the same.. and wouldn’t eat. We took him home and as the day went he got better... he won’t touch his dog food.. so we’ve been feeding him chicken. He still on medicine. His personality has become normal.. he doesn’t look tired as much.. and the sickly look is gone. His back legs are the problem.. they are weak.. he has collapsed only once on them since the initial fall. We have noticed his spine is more picked up in the back, his abdomen is slightly wider.. (we don’t know if this happened over time or we are just noticing them now because he’s sick). Did he fall or was it a seizure? Did he have physical harm.. like jumping over our fence and landing and injuring his spine? Is it a tumor?

My dog was under the couch when she got up she hit the metal part. She just laying very still and heavy breathing she has not moved all day.so what do you think?

Yesterday you advised us to take our puppy to the vet.We took him and the doctor gave him three injections.One of them was to help him sleep,but he didn't sleep at all.He hasn't slept for nearly four days.He wants to sleep but he is not able to because one of his legs keeps jerking continuously. The doctor said that there were no fractures but he
has been crying(continuously) since we found him five days back.And he wouldn't be crying if there were nothing wrong with him. We don't think the doctor here is very competent. What do you think has happened?Also should we do an x-ray?How do we help him sleep.

How to tell if you're puppy has internal bleeding or what is causing her constant crying? She started out not being able to move and barely breathing, took her to the ER Vet and they wouldn't help because we didn't have the money to do an X-ray or anything. She was fine all day and this came on it if nowhere. What can we do and/or possible reasons for her crying. Please help!

I have a 1 year old mix breed that had her back end run over by a truck, i rushed her to the emergency animal hospital due to when she was hit she got up and ran but her back legs were dragging im assuming due to shock and adrenaline, i carried her to my truck to get her to the vets and after placed in the front seat she got up and was walking on all four legs slowly. The vet examined her and said he was optimistic and there were no signs of broken or fractured bones which is a miracle in its self. They kept her for 2 days and when i called they said she was getting around very well for a dog that just got hit. They informed me of blood in her stool and sent her home with meds for the bleeding. When i got her home she had no interest in eating and when i took her out 2 times she pooped straight dark blood with no fecal matter in it about a fourth cup im assuming from trauma. Is this normal and how long can this go on for?

My dogs was hit by a car at low speed at 11h15 last nite (he tried to cross the street to my dismay and the car coming by couldn't stop in time but was going at most 15-20 km/h.

Paco barked about 5 6 times and ran home

Without money can't really bring him to the vet but I am looking at signs and if anything IL make it happen.

He has a very benign scrape on a leg but I can tell it's not to worry about.

He doesn't seem to hurt anywhere and wants belly rubs


His gums are fine pink and come back to normal color quick after pressing.

I think he has normal respiration (he's asleep right now since it's nighttime.) It's like an inspiration then expiration every 3 seconds or so (I'm worrying it's not but I think it's just me being worried.

So all around from multiples sites and call I've made he seems fine , was told to go to vet to be sure of course but like I said it's not really possible atm.

He didn't seem lethargic in any way and was responsive (sit etc)

He's a 11 and a half months old Labrador boxer mix

Thank you for your time and I hope my little buddy is fine.

Our black lab Beagle mix has been acting odd the last 2 days. He sleeps all the time and has been going and hiding in really wierd places to sleep. My husband noticed blood in his stool yesterday and he says it smelled like a "gut shot deer" and he thinks he might be bleeding internally. Riley has not been injured at all lately to cause any damage but he does have some lumps and tumors on random parts of his body. I looked at his gums to check if he was anemic and they look normal, I even pressed on them and they returned to normal color fairly quickly. Is it possible to bleed internally if he didn't have any injuries or accidents? Wondering what we can do for him at his age. Thank you!

My puppy(1.5 month old) is howling and whining continuously, I think that something is wrong with his leg because he can't seem to put it down, maybe there is an internal injury because I can't see any injury on the outside.
ALSO He is not our pet he just came here and since he came here he has been totally uncomfortable. Is it because he is missing his mommy or what? Do dogs feel that way ,I mean do they miss their mother if they are separated. Main thing is his leg hurts what should I do?( For three days he has been crying).

My Puppy ( 9 week old staffy x labrador) was just elbowed with quite force in the abdominal region by my flatmate, she seems fine but i was worried she is in shock or something, should I take her into the vet? her breaths are 30 per minute but uneven ( she's sleeping - it's 12.34am here in nz), doesn't seem to be showing any signs of distress when touching her abdomen or body, her heart doesnt seem to be beating irratically or anything but i am still worried

I think my dog have throat injury because I accidentally pulled him and my dog vomited blood once then he coughed for like 10 min then hes back to normal breathing and he seems okay and normal but I really think he have throat injury. What should I do?

I think my dog got hit by a car ( idk because I wasn’t there ) and he’s bleeding in one paw and has a red like circle on the top of his pupil ( blood colored like ) what do I do!? help me

Hi, i have a 3-4 lbs chihuahua who was recently attacked by our german sheppered dog. Given his huge built he was thrown back and forth. We managed to pull them apart and gained enough time for us to take our little dog out of his reach. We gave him some pain killer medication to alleviate him from the pain of the debacle but he started to pee with blood and vomitt with faint traces of blood as well. He was limping a bit but that vanished about an hour after his pain reliver medication. Is this a sign of internal injury? There is no available doctor at this time what should we do? Although he’s been responding well to our calls and he’s apetite also hasn’t change.

My puppy accidentally got kicked in the stomach area, it hurt her really bad, she winced and then hunched over for a couple seconds, and then I started crying because i got really scared, she started giving kisses and acting normally. So throughout the day she was acting normally, she was eating fine, since she stole some of the cats food and then my nephews food. It had dairy in it, which typically makes her sick. When it came time for her food she seemed to act distant, she always has an appetite, she was eating fine with training time, and then the food she stole. She would eat her food out of my hand, but not her bowl. I was beginning to believe that it was from her tummy maybe still hurting. She just got out of heat, or in the final stage. (Being spayed next week) I don't know if she ate too much today, got ahold of something bad, or her tummy is in pain. I felt all around her tummy and pushed gently and she didn't seem to care, nothing was hurting her. I have anxiety disorder and so the situation was terrifying to say the least... She is acting completely normal and no signs of pain, just the not eating made me super anxious.

I have a 8 yo American Staffordshire terrier Soldier that I believe was hit by a car. He has some road rash and couple of puncture wounds. He seems to be walking slowly but without any type of limp. He is expectedly sore. He cry’s a little when moving around or getting up. I’ve been able to get him to eat and drink some. My concern is his abdomen. While it’s not swollen it is very tight. How worried should I be?

I just recently adopted a french bulldog. She's obsessed with fetch, and will play to the point of exhaustion. We have all wood in our apartment so she slips and slides and sometimes dives for the ball straight into furniture, the wall, etc. She always seems fine and happy and wanting to play more. Last night after some indoor fetch, she handed me the ball and it had blood on it. I tried looking in her mouth and didn't see anything too obvious. I put the ball away. She slept with me just fine last night and has seemed normal so far today. I played a little gentle fetch with her this morning and checked the ball each time she gave it back and no blood. She has been chewing on her antler today as well - no blood. Is there anyway she could have some kind of internal bleeding from running too hard into furniture, etc. when playing fetch?

My dog Clara was run over this past Sunday. The car was going around 2 miles per hour. (Parking) We took her to the veterinary hospital and they took X-rays and they said she luckily did not break any bones and looked fine. I couldn’t understand because I saw literally get smashed by the tire. Right now five days have passed, she sleeps all day, eats a little, pees drops of brown, and she has a big red bump (the size of a golf ball) on her lower right side where I think her intestine might be. Will she need to be operated?

Hi
My dog was very over weight when we got her 3 years ago. She has lost some weight and was a happy dog. But the last week or so she started limping.
She used to lick he front paw and sometimes bite it so bad that I to put a badge on it to keep her from chewing her foot and that also caused her to limp. I can touch her paws and pressed her leg but she doesn't even flinch but as soon as she gets up to walk she is limping. I know with the hind legs she lays down in her way that causes them to go numb but Im just scared that maybe her weight and age is starting to it toll. She is +/- 7 years old

My 2 months old dog went under car tyre and it has got internal injuries i took to clinic doctor gave 2 injection to stop bleeding and they said it has got hurt to internal if its alive by tomorrow bring it back ...will my puppy recover?

hi discovered lump on his back at top of his shoulder could the knock to his back have hurt his abdomen which i thought the workmans tool box knocked off also his tummy suddenly swollen and sensitive to touch

Coco got in a fight with another dog and was brought to the vet immediately. She was given surgery on her belly and stitched up with a tube for the time being. After two days, she developed a large red spot that mirrored a bad bruise on a human. It is not a hard spot but rather squishy and she doesn’t show discomfort when we touch it but she is a very tough 65 pound pit bull.

My husband and I noticed yesterday that my dogs gums are very pale and he has been consuming a lot of water. He is 12 year old German Shorthair Pointer who is diabetic, hypothyroid and has arthritis. I am wondering if he could possibly have some internal bleeding going on given the info I have read. He is acting mostly normal otherwise, slight nausea over the last week but not vomitting.

My dog got hit by a car, she has a pneumothorax. The air hasn’t left her internal space and her breathing has gone back to normal. The vet says that she should Be fine as far as that goes. And they put her hip back into place. But one thing none of the vets we went to have been able to answer is . She was bleeding from the nose and mouth obviously from head trauma but they say no actual damage was done to her brain/skull. But her eye is awaken and has red blood all through it and around it. No vet can tell me why or if it’ll get better ?

Any thoughts on what the issue could be ??

I have a week old beagle and her nose
is bleeding because the plastic jar with water fell on her when her mommies run after when she sees a cat. What should we do?

My dog got into a fight with my roommates dog 7 hours ago. The dog latched onto the back of his neck and wouldn’t let go for about 15 seconds. He was walking fine immediately afterwards, but now doesn’t want to get up to walk and when he does, he’s having difficulty. He does have a small cut on his front leg, but nothing major. He seems very anxious and growls if I get near him. I noticed a small red spot on his belly, but he won’t really let me look at it. He seems like he’s breathing fairly rapidly. He was able to go to the bathroom just now, but had to be taken out on a leash as he refuses to move on his own. He did eat and drink water after the incident.

My 18lbs beagle was recently diagnosed with a bad back. We have a 65lbs goldendoodle puppy that wants to play with the beagle constantly and won’t stop pouncing on her. The beagle occasionally has blood in her stools. Is it possible the puppy is causing these injuries to the beagle? If so, what can we do to prevent this?

My dog coconut jumped out of my arms today and landed on her side. As soon as she landed she pooped everywhere, and it scared me. She is acting fine now like nothing is wrong. Could this be something serious? People keep telling me that I have just scared the poop out of her where she is a Chihuahua.

My 8 year old Border mix passed two blackish-tarry stools yesterday. I understand that passing stool like this can mean internal bleeding so I called the local animal ER and explained that he ate his entire dinner, was drinking water, and not lethargic at all...in fact we was wrestling with my other dog shortly after. They stated it doesn't sound like a "emergency" but to just watch my dog for the next 24 hours and if it's still continuing today, and/or if he's not eating, drinking or is lethargic - to go ahead and bring him in. So should I continue to monitor him or go ahead and take him in? All of the information is confusing and stressful. Any advice is welcome.

My little sister accidentally fell on my dog and he cried for a few seconds and then he just stood up and stayed there. I tried to carry him and he cried. And he does not want to walk. What will happen to him? And what should I do?

So I was closing a door pretty fast and my dog ran right into it and hit his head he whimpered a little bit but then continued to run. I finally got him into his create and he started gagging but was ok after a few min. My mom said he should be ok but I'm really worried.He can walk and run just fine but I could here his head hit the door and it was pretty hard I put him in his crate to come down but should I take him to the vet?

When got home wasn’t moved limbs was twitching and had almost white gums very pale was dis Oreo enraged and had a few small seizure took to vet they did blood work X-rays and all normal he’s eating but won’t drink so giving him fluids. He has been at vet for three days on fluids and steroids and did have seizure meds once he can move his limbs a little on his own and he turns here n there but he can’t stand up or walk. He pees on him self no bowl movement yet. He did whine the first night but hasn’t since. His pupils was huge for the first day he will lick I now and he tries to get up and will slowly wag his tail. The vets have no clue what’s going on with him. Can you give me any advice or anything to look for ? All the blood work and X-rays are normal ! Please help all bitials are normal also

My dog was hit by a car yesterday. We brought her to the vet, and they said they were concerned she may have head trauma because her nose was bleeding. She has some cuts on her leg, thigh, and her eye. Her stomach is scuffed up pretty bad. They suggested we bring her into the emergency clinic. We did that but they wanted us to pay for treatment before they treated her. We couldnt afford that. They turned her away. Every other vet had the same policy. Payment upon seeing her. We had to bring her back home. She is eating and drinking water, and wagging her tail and is as loving as usual. She isn't as energetic but I imagine thats because she is sore. My main concern is internal bleeding. What can I do on my end to make sure she is ok?

My chihuahua mix fell from a 6 foot high deck, didn’t break anything, and acted perfectly normal after. He even ran back up to the deck. Tonight, I noticed he had bloody diarrhea. I have a child and cannot just pick up and go to the ER, and I have arranged to take him to the Vet’s. Is this treatable? What should I expect from the Vet for treatment?

My dog Manuel is almost 2 years old, he loves to play and is a bit rough when playing. One of his favorite games is to play (i call it wrestling) with my dad. He tries to bite my dad, while my dad tries to grab him by the legs and turn him over and my dog tries to get out of his hands so he can keep playing (its like a tag game). This goes on every night before my dog goes to sleep (he wont go to sleep if he doesnt has his play time). Recently he's been having some stomach problems, the vet told us to give him a bland diet and any food for 12 hours. He got better, but then yesterday it happened again. I dont know if the rough playing can be the reason why he is having these problems? maybe a hard hit when turning him while playing over could cause something? He never complains when playing, even when it gets a bit to rough he will ask my dad to keep playing.

Thank you

Hi,
My dog Stella (pugalier) pretty much ran barking at a cars wheel, she looked like she got caught up or went into the middle of the car and came out running. She is acting completely normal, heart rate and respiratory rate is normal as well as gums. I’ve touched her all over and no wimpering or crying, she is eating and drinking fine. She had a small scrape under her eye but no other injuries. Should I be worried and what should I look for? She has sore legs normally due to her platellas (born with this condition)
Thanks

1 week who i was in a car accident, my car flipped a bunch of times and at some point my dog was ejected from the vehicle. we couldn’t find her for several hours but once she did she didn’t look hurt at all. i wanted to take her to get checked but i had no way to take her to the vet for 2 days and after those 2 days she was acting completely normal so i decided not to. Well today out of nowhere she got really sluggish and didn’t want to walk, she didn’t eat and she won’t go up or down the stairs at all. Her breathing, pulse and gums all looked good from what i followed with a youtube video. do you think this could be a delayed result of the accident? or maybe she got into something today and that’s why she’s acting like this

Also we had left her in the car today with the windows cracked for an hour or so, do you think someone could have gave her something with poison? or unlikely?

if she’s not better by morning we’re taking her to the vet, just hoping for a sooner opinion!

My Chihuahua was picked up by our Lab when she went for her food bowl. The lab is approx 100 lbs, and the chi is about 5 lbs. The Chi cried and squealed, but there was no blood and there doesn't appear to be any swelling. It looks as tho she picked her up by the nape and released. I was standing right there. The Chi is freaked out but walking on her own and will go potty. She has not thrown up. There is bruising in one area at the nape but nothing on her belly or chest. I don't believe she clenched down or anything. I know I will be told "take her to the vet" but I am asking as there are no puncture wounds and there was no bleeding or tearing, if I can wait a couple days to see how she is doing. She is our families baby and this is heartbreaking. She has been drinking water and ate food also. (Everyone's appetite seems to be shot) Thank you again for your time and advice.

My puppy recently passed away. 2 pit bulls attacked him. He had two puncture wounds on his belly. I saw it all happen. I yelled and screamed for them to stop but it was too late. The owner took awhile to come outside to take his dogs back inside and my puppy was breathing heavily from what I was seeing. Once I got to him he stoppped breathing and moving. He had glazed eyes like he was staring at something and his mouth wide open. I saw no movement as if he had passed away right after. I also didn’t feel a pulse. My question is that keeps going in the back of my mind. Would he had made it to the hospital? I can’t stand the thought of thinking he could’ve and I didn’t take him right away.

My daughter was walking our 10 week old puppy today and they started running.she accidentally stepped on him.next thing i know he starts yelping and when i got over to him and picked him up.his mouth started gushing blood out of it.he was gasping for air and sounded like he had something in his lungs he drank some water and walked around.his breathing is still hesitant.hes sleeping right now.what could have happened.

Our dog ran in front of the truck as my fiancee was pulling in the driveway, he was going less than 5 mph. She cried for about 1-2 minutes, but then has been acting normal until late last night. I did have rimadyl that I gave her the first two days. Her gums are colored, no limping, heart rate and resperations and pupils are fine. She only has two scuff marks on the front left arm (near the armpit) and back left leg near the tuck up. She is only whining when trying stairs and when she moves faster. The accident was Thursday evening and this is now Sunday afternoon, I was giving her the rimadyl through yesterday morning was her last dose. The truck did not not go over her just clipped her. I am assuming it's just muscular soreness but thought I should ask anyway. I'm worried that if I give her more of the rimadyl she will over use it and injure it further. We have been keeping her inside except for potty breaks and keeping the other animals from ruff housing her.

My 7 year old pug/Jack Russel mix ate a few chicken wings last week. The next day she threw up bits and pieces but not a lot, mostly just liquid. 2-3 days have gone by and she is now having diarrhea. It's gelatinous/mucousy and I believe it's bloody. Not sure if it's blood or from strawberries honestly. And she's doing it I side the house which is very unlike her. She's been eating and drinking except I'm not sure about yesterday and today. She's also not showing any pain even if I press around. she seems normal besides what happened today.

My 15 week french bulldog jumped out of my arms (I’m 5’11”) last night. She landed on her back. She was immediately afraid of me, but was not yelping or crying from pain. She was walking around and did not seem to have any areas of pain. She slept fine though the the night. This morning, she is still walking and she pooped, peed, and are with the same level of excitement she always has. She doesn’t seem interested in play like she does, and is a bit lethargic. Her gums are normal color and her pulse seems normal. We already have an appointment with our vet on Thursday to get her final shots. What should prompt us to go to the Vet between now and Thursday?

My dog was attacked and bitten by other dog. He had puncture wounds on his neck. I brought him to the vet and his wounds were cleaned and medicated. He isnt moving at all. he just lies on his side and doesnt move unless i move him. when i move him, his body is limp. he doesnt get up to urinate so he urinates on himself. I am wondering is this normal. Is he in shock from the attack or could it be something internal like broken bone or paralyzed? I would have expected the vet to know this if he is paralyzed when i first brought him in.

Yesterday our pomeranian, Ace, struck the wheel of my son's car. He wasn't under the tire, but he hit the tire pretty hard and cut his eye. Last night he seemed fine, other than a little swelling around his eye. He has just begun growling when we touch his tummy and his back legs seem weak. Is this a sign of internal bleeding? He is eating, drinking and he is passing urine, but has not had a bowl movement yet today.

my dog got attacked by a lab a couple of weeks ago and he was bleeding but we cleaned it out and since then he’s been fine but tonight he’s been in bed all night and has gotten up a few times but barely gotten up out of bed today and we don’t have the money to take him to the vet and earlier today he was shaking and i don’t know what to do he’s eating, drinking, pooping and peeing

We took our dog to get his nails trimmed we waited outside 15 mins later he couldn’t walk or move
Took him back next day blood test and x rays show nothing. Got him to a specialist neurology. He had damage to c34 and c45? He has neve shown a sign of being in pain or having any issues with his neck. Could be this done at the groomer?

hi im asking about my dog sarita who is 15 years and is becoming sick her symptoms is diarrhea, whiteness in her eye ( i thought because of age), unable to focus, bleeding ( she's was never fixed). I am unsure e of what to do. Is putting her down the best option ? She's been given medicine for parasites but only does her any good for a couple a days and i wish not to give her ton loads of medicine because that too is harmful.. im confused any help is greatly appreciated.

I have a toy poodle and today I found her collapsed on the porch on her side. She had a scrape on her head and she was bleeding from the nose. She is alert when I call her name. She is off balance and can't walk. She is very weak and just been sleeping all day. Her breathing also seem a little shallow but she wil open and close her eyes.

My dog Zoey who just turned 9 was diagnosed with a reverse sneeze, and was treated for that and then it came but but with a lot of snot. So they gave her different medication. Then she had a massive nose bleed, so we took her in and they removed 5 teeth that were in her sinus cavity. They said bleeding won't last long after that but it's been 2 weeks and she is still bleeding out of her nose, so we don't know where to go from here.

So recently my dog was involved in a hit and run, and sent to the animal hospital. His whole underside around his lower half is red and a bit swollen, he has lots of trouble walking on his own, isn’t interested in food or water either. Whenever we try to feed water or food to him by hand he just starts crying. Please help I’m afraid of his appetite loss!
