OK, I got some fish oil caps and a bag of Eagle Pak Omega 3 food. A lady shopping at the petstore told me it helped her pittie's skin issues. THANKS for this idea. I hope it helps my pup.

I add a tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil to Logan's food. She also takes a multvitamin. She always smells great and her hair is smooth and silky. I brush her every other day. She had white flaky dandruff the day I brought her home.

I think fish oil is a bit better than olive oil, but either will work. One thing that is great is that unlike medications - these items can only help and won't do any harm. Also, do yourself a favor and buy the fish oil capsules at the health food store and not the pet store. It amazes me how much more they charge for the same item when they put "canine" on the label. Also food is a big issue - look for foods that...

Hi guys. My pittie is having an attack of flakey, itchy skin. He had the same problem last year (same time), and we thought it was allergies (he was on all sorts of meds, etc...but nothing worked--we went to two vets about this). We changed his food to low allergen food. Changed our cleaning products to hypoallergenic. We even started using distilled water in his bowl. But it never did ...

On Oreo's 10th birthday, we took her to the dog park to play. She was playing chase like normal and then just stopped and held up her back leg. She hasn't had any knee issues before, so we rushed her to the Dr. It turns out that she ruptured her cruciate ligament. That was not a good birthday present for my poor girl! She had surgery to repair the ligament and trim up the torn meniscus on ...

My little man is not well. In the beginning of last month we had an episode where I came home from work and found Taz trembling. He would appeared to be in pain, but was willing to go for a walk and eliminated fine, but he wouldn't eat. The same thing the following morning, so I took him to the vet. She could not find anything wrong, but did give him some pain meds. After two days he was back...

Help Anyone! Two years ago my 11 years old Golden Retriever / Black lab mix Jet, started getting bad dandruff and lost his hair. After losing his hair he developed scabs, which are still present. The hair grew back, somewhat. My vet didn’t know what it was so he sent me to a dog dermatologist. Over $3000 later Jet still looked the same .He checked for cancer and was negative. He had many...

I posted a bit about this in General last week. Heyoka had a mysterious problem with his left hind leg. He could weight bear and walk normally, but he couldn't run, jump or play. Several times a day, without pattern, he would screech and his left hind leg would come up. For several minutes he wouldn't put it down at all. Off to the vet last Monday, he acts like a perfectly normal dog there, ...

Cincy girl is having another lump removed. This one is a large marble sized, and fairly hard on the outside of her left rear leg. The vet didn't like the look of it, and wanted it off, so today is the day. She is there now and I should have an update around noon. Please keep the baby girl in your thoughts this morning! She's a trooper, but it doesn't make me worry any less!

Hi there everyone, this is my very first post Katy, my Welsh Terrier has had a skin allergy for a quite a few years now, she was on a monthly injection but after helping for about a year was not making any difference. Now she gets a cortozone injection when she gets itchy, but I was wondering if you know of anything else I could be giving her. For example can I give her anti-...

Ozzy has a heart murmur. He is a rescue, so we don't know his history. The vet believes it is likely something which came on with old age, rather than something he had all his life. He is not on any meds for it. This afternoon I took the 4 dogs for a walk. We went slowly. All of a sudden I felt a lot of pulling on one leash. Turned and Ozzy was thrashing around, couldn't keep his feet ...
