I am sorry to hear that the pups are having loose stools. The amoxicillin could potentially be a part of then problem. However, parasites such as coccidia often cause diarrhea in pups. I would highly encourage you to have a fecal analysis run on the puppies to rule out any parasite problems. Best of luck and I hope they improve soon. Thank you for using Pet Coach.

The latest bloodworks from my senior 16 year old dog. He has been quite skinny now and not eating as much. But still has energy to walk around but probably fatigues easier than before. He has arthritis. Can any vet give their opinion on the bloodwork results? Is he near the end of his life? Since the ALT is over 1000

Hello! I have a 6 mth old rescue orange tabby who was neutered at 9 weeks by the Humane Society. Im wondering if his glands were effected as he seems to always have an fecal/gland odor back there. Poor lil guy. Advice?
Hello there! I am sorry to hear that about your sweet Clyde. I don't think it has anything to do with neutering or it's timing. A consistent smell could be due to an anal gland problem though. Some...

My dog takes Fluoxetine and Gabapentin. I have run out of Fluoxetine and my vets office is closed until Jan 2. Do I need to take him to emergency vet or will he be ok without it for a few days? I have plenty of Gabapentin.
Hello there,I think it's very likely Hagan will be okay without Fluoxetine for a little bit, especially given that you still have his gabapentin. Watch him for signs of anxiety or stress and do your...

My cat has had digestive issues since I adopted her 2 months ago. They have improved dramatically over time, but she still has semi-regular gas and seems to be in mild-moderate discomfort from day-to-day. I give her 1 Proviable Probiotic sprinkled on her dry food 1x/day (Fussie Cat Chicken and Turkey Meal dry food; approx 3/4 cup per day). I also give her 1 prescribed Gabapentin pill when she seems particularly gassy/uncomfortable. Is there anything else I could be doing to help her?
Hello!I am sorry to hear this about Lucy. Tummy issues can be uncomfortable. I love what you are doing with the probiotics and gabapentin already. Your vet has probably already recommended a fecal...

Hello, my name is Christine My two dogs ate a foam ball, like a quarter size of it actually. I called my vet and he said to give them some Hydro peroxide. I did and they threw up. I tried calling him back to see if there was anything else I needed to do or lookout for, but no one seems to pick up. Is everything going to be OK with my dogs? How long should I wait before feeding them and giving them water? How should they be acting after? One dog is about 7 pounds. The other one is about 10 pounds
Thank you for contacting PetCoach with your question about your dogs. I'm sorry they ate a foam ball, but it's good that they threw up. If they threw up the pieces of the ball, everything should be...

Hi my cat was in a car accident and suffered a grade 2 tall pull injury and had his tail amputated after a couple weeks as it did not regain function. He has since had a constipation. Fortunately he is still able to defecate but are small hard balls. A couple times I have had to administer laxatives. I am aware this is a lifelong issue after such surgery. However is there anything I can do which will help his stool? Massages etc? For example, I have been giving pumpkin puree, which has helped
Thank you for contacting PetCoach with your question about your cat. I'm so sorry he was in an accident but I'm glad he survived. If pumpkin puree is helping, then I recommend continuing to give...

Hello I have a pet hamster his name is Freddy I had to clean his enclosure last night and while he was out of his tank i was giving him treats to make him less stressed and I didnt realize that the baby food that had fruits and veggies also had some lemon juice in it which can be harmful to them I am worried and would like to know if he will be okay or not I saw him this morning and he seemed fine but I couldnt exactly tell since he looks the same usually.
Hello there,I think Freddy will likely be just fine. While citrus shouldn't be a major staple of their daily diet, a little bit in a treat should be okay. It's probably a preserving ingredient and...

My 12-year-old female Cocker has always been calm but now is deaf and recently had a bad UTI. She’s on antibiotics and thyroid medication and has dry eye, for which I put an ointment in her eyes. She used to sleep next to me but now prefers the floor, and it feels like she wants to be alone. Her water intake and appetite are good, but she just watches my husband give dental bones to the other dogs instead of participating. She does go up and down the stairs much slower.

My dog keeps getting Paraphimosis whenever he humps a stuffed animal or anything - it seems like the hair around his penis gets stuck inside and has to be pulled out to bring the skin back out. Should he see a vet for this? Or should I just try to keep his hair cut short around that area? Not sure if this is a bigger issue

Hi , I have a 9 year old dog who looked like she was stiff in her back leg the past couple of days and last night she was limping a lot and looked like her back leg was sticking out more then usual. I noticed this morning that she was licking her foot and just now saw that there’s a bare patch where she’s been licking. The foot looks swollen but can’t see a cut.

I discovered my dog drinking out of a bucket of really gross dark green water outside. He was throwing up for a few days. I’ve since removed the bucket of water and he’s stopped throwing up. I am concerned however if he needs antibiotics or something in case there was a bacteria or parasite in the bucket of water. If he does I will call the vet and see what can be done but I’m limited on money right now so I’m asking here if an antibiotic is recommended?
Hi there,I am so glad to hear that Nyko has improved since removing the bucket of water. Please be gentle on yourself. I think many of us have found our dogs drinking gross water at some point. They...
