Archived Bulldog Medical Health

Last night Dink has started acting very mopey (sp?) and seems to be slumping and keeping to himself. Shyla tried to play with him and he yelped like he was in pain. I have rubbed him down and nothing seems to be bothering him. Same thing this morning when DJ go home, he seemed to be shaking like he was nervous (didn't seem like just head shakes more like his whole body) and yelped once for no reason.

When the babies were born they were compact and there skin was more "tight" on their frame. In the last couple of days their skin feels real loose, for lack of a better word. They are still gaining weight. They are all like this, not just one or two. Anyone else notice that type of change?

Beefy (2.5 yrs) began to have diarrhea yesterday, had the runs throughout the night and today, and just now threw up his dinner. We gave him his usual kibble (TOTW) with plain rice tonight to try to settle his stomach. Looking at him now, his eyes are red, and so is his muzzle.....we're pretty scared and not too sure what to do....should we head to the emergency vet?

My 4 month old bulldog just broke out with a nasty looking rash/red bumps. I first noticed the day after he had his 15 week puppy vaccination where it was mostly just on his chest. It is now mainly on his belly where it is the worst looking. From what I can tell he doesn't seem to be itching at it and he is still eating and drinking normally.

Does anyone know how long it takes for the eye color to be established on a bull dog?

Christiane the proud owner of one super bully!

Hi all I'm new her just adopted a 2 yr old bully. We named him Meatball.lol well he had really smelly ears and we took him to the vet right away when we got him about a month ago. His ears were so bad the vet couldn't see his ear canals. He put him on several drops , steroids etc now ears are good he then gave me Epi-otic advance to clean 2x a week but I was wondering about Zymox non steroid. which is better??? also I switch his food to natural balance fish and sweet potato and use calm coat products as well as show stopper... but my ?

how to post his pic?

My vet called today and told me that Bringman's lepto titers came back positive but that he wanted to repeat them in 2 wks since it was about 7 wks ago he got vaccinated. I got tested today my mother has to get tested and anyone else that has come in contact with his urine which here of late there has been a lot of-- this is how this whole thing started. Reading on the internet it seems like biochemical warfare protective gloves eyewear and all my dogs have to be treated all 6 of them.

the dog to breath like he's congested when he sleeps? When Boo sleeps it seems like his nose is stuffed and breathe like he's congested with a cold. Never had this before the surgery. I called the vet and he said that before i don't hear it is because he probably breathe out of his mouth, well i never seen him sleeping with his mouth open so i dont know.
