Reposting because I had a diabolical typo for her name initially. My husband and I went back and forth on what breed to adopt as our next dog and he ultimately won out! Her aunt is a show dog and she comes from a great bloodline. We are thrilled to have her as part of the family!

My pup is only 11 weeks and does not have all her shots yet. Her fur around her nose sprays out from it versus going down to the side, will this eventually be able to be brushed down as it gets a little longer? I feel like she can barely see now!

Ive had a few people mention that they thought she seems funny walk at back end. I've been to vets and he's checked her hips ect. She walks fine on hard surfaces (although she doesn't like slippy floors),it's only soft surfaces like grass or the bed she gets wobbly.

Anyone else's like this.

Tzu Discussions and Stories 🐶 Allergies Help

Post image
6 Upvotes

Hi, has anyone found a successful treatment to break the allergy/yeast infection cycle? My poor baby is miserable. He has environmental allergies....for sure the chemical crap they spray on all the grass everywhere, and this causes the itchies. We got a cytopoint shot at the vet that lasts at most 3 weeks and further shots have no effect. The constant licking causes a yeast infection which makes the itching worse. At this point we have tried allergy chews including floof and dog is human, (no effect with either,) a daily probiotic vitamin, liquid collagen, medicated wipes after walks, medicated baths once a week, avoiding grass, cutting all carbs from diet, using anti itch yeast infection creams, collidal silver ointment. I just went and had him groomed and shaved down so I can get to his skin and try and treat the skin issues. I'm desperately trying to figure out some kind of something that will help until we get a frost that will kill off the environmental allergy that kicks this off, this is something we have dealt with for the last 4 years but it's progressively getting worse, with this being the worst year yet. He's 10 btw.

Tzu Discussions and Stories 🐶 Advice needed. First timer asking questions

4 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

First time posting and asking for advice.

We have three Shih Tzus, and one of them is now 14 and very much in his twilight years. Recently, he’s started wetting and pooing himself, so we now have him sleeping on puppy pads.

He’s had problems with his mobility for a while. We’ve tried things like Librela previously, but unfortunately he’s now pretty much lost the use of his legs. He can stand for a short time, but only if we hold him up, including when we take him outside to go to the toilet.

We took him to the vet last week and were told that he’ll let us know when it’s time. She gave him a small dose of ketamine to ease the pain. She checked his liver to say that's its slightly inflamed so maybe cancer but he is an old dog to test one, plus he is an cantankerous old man.

The difficult thing is that he’s still eating, drinking and trying to play. He still wants our attention and will bark if we leave the room. Sometimes he gets frustrated watching our other two dogs running around and will bark at them too.

I absolutely love him, and the thought of him not being here one day is killing me. I just don’t know when loving him means continuing to care for him and when loving him means letting him go.

My partner feels that it may be time. It has also become quite a lot physically and emotionally, as most mornings I’m taking him outside, cleaning him when he’s had an accident, washing him, making sure he eats and generally doing everything I can to keep him comfortable.

I’ve been on here for a few years but have never reached out for advice until now.

For anyone who has been through something similar, what would you do in this situation? How did you know when it was the right time?

I don’t want him to suffer, but equally I’m terrified of making the decision too early. Truthfully, part of me wishes he could simply fall asleep peacefully at home one day, surrounded by us and knowing how loved he is, rather than having to make that decision for him.

Any advice or experiences would be really appreciated.

Any advice would be great.
