Quincy We don't doodle!     Barked: Sat Jun 15, '13 3:46pm PST  If, according to her vet, she is in perfect health and everything is normal then I also do not see a problem. How are you determining the amount she is supposed to be eating??? FYI, if you are using the amount listed on the bag as a guideline, those top amounts are for dogs who are active, working all day dogs. The average adult house dog shouldn't eat anywhere near that amount. Example, Quincy is a growing puppy, 11 months old. His food bag says he should be eating between 5 and 6 cups per day for his size. He eats TWO cups per day and is extremely healthy and at an excellent weight. If he ate 6 cups each day he would be obese and not healthy at all!!! Crystal, my Chinese Crested, weighs 12 lbs and she gets 1/2 cup per day, and often won't finish that. She is actually on the heavy side and could do with even less. The bag says she should be eating 2 1/2 to 3 cups per day!!! Both these dogs are quite active and play outside for most of the day. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

On Quincy's photo book he is 9 to 10 weeks on page 3 and 12 to 14 weeks on page 4. He weighed 23 lbs at 13 weeks and is now 83 lbs at 11 months old. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Dog Health > Low red blood cell + very high reticulocytes

Quincy We don't doodle!     Barked: Wed Jun 12, '13 4:34am PST  Rimadyl can do that, especially with Labradors. For some reason, they are VERY sensitive to that drug. It attacks their liver almost immediately. Those values should be more normal after he's off it. However, another too common problem can be a tumor on his spleen. If found early enough, it can be successfully cured with removal of the organ. Ultrasound will normally show this problem. The tumor bleeds into the abdomen and is VERY painful, which can contribute to the walking issues as well as the low RBC. Good luck! my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Grooming > Recommendations for Lab Coat/Shedding?

Quincy We don't doodle!     Barked: Sat Jun 8, '13 10:54pm PST  I have never had an issue with any of my labs shedding other than the usual molt in the Spring. I never vacuumed more than once a week and have had up to five adult labs sharing my house with me. I vacuumed lots of chewed up things but very little hair. I almost never brushed, but did give a warm bath when they started their annual shed to remove the loose hair all at once. Quincy just dumped his puppy coat/winter coat and with a good bath it was over in less than a week and he is no longer shedding at all. Doesn't sound like normal shedding to me. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]
