Growth inside just under my female bichon’s frise anus?
Posted by admin in Veterinary Pet Insurance on November 21, 2010
My dog just come back from the veterinary surgeon with a cost of $1000 list of pre opt work up (biopsy/blood) and she needs to be put to sleep to do this work and test Not knowing for sure what it is and douhful that it is cancer but could turn into cancer if not removedd – if removed – it could come back at any time. I am also told this is a very hard operation due to where it sits with all the cords, nerves etc
After we find out what it might be, then the surgeon will then decide if he can do the surgery and that is $2000 and up depending on what they find
My dogs are my life and I love them so much, the sad part is I never bought pet insurance now I am kicking my self as this would have been covered
Has anyone gone through a similar problem with their pets and did the veterinary have any names to call this egg size lump?
Thanks
I have had two different dogs that had had lumps. The first dog was a large Doberman that had some lumps as she got older. We did not have them surgically removed and she lived to be 15 years old and had a long and happy life. The second dog developed breast cancer as she was a small ten pound dog and she lived only to be 11 years old. I really do not believe in a surgery on a pet unless it is absolutely the only choice. I am sorry your pet is ill.

I would never go here again: I have had one of the most tramatic experiences at this facility. My dog was very ill on the verge of death we brought her in put her on the floor she was in alot of pain this guy picked her up like a sack of potatoes she was in alot of pain, these people do not care about animals. Then the doctor came in and said how much was I willing to spend to keep my dog alive I asked him what the prognosis was and he said how should he know? They already her on a IV and I said I was taking her out of there I had to drag her home call another vet and have her put to sleep. This made a heart breaking situation 100 times worse and I am devastated. This caused more suffering for my dog then was neccesary. In my opinion this doctor is cruel.

How do I get my big dog to stop going through my little dog’s doggy door?
I don’t want to keep my big dog in a kennel while I am at work, but he keeps coming through the dog door for my lhasa apso and chewing stuff in the house. Any suggestions?
…. The dog door goes from the house to the outside. The little dog stays inside but needs to go outside to do his business so blocking off the Dog Door is out of the question.
Close off door!

Do you have to buy dog insurance for your dog to go to a vet?
Posted by admin in Dog Insurance on November 21, 2010
I’m thinking about getting a dog, so i just need to know a few basics like the vet. And how can i find a good vet?
No, you don’t have to buy insurance, just have money! Insurance is good if your dog’s breed has a tendency to genetic health issues. Once you get a dog, be sure to establish with it with a vet, to keep shots and preventatives current, for it’s health.
I found my vet by asking other dog owners who they use and like. The same goes fo finding a good groomer.
Insurance for my bird?
Posted by admin in Pet Insurance Reviews on November 7, 2010
Well i want to get insurance for my pet cockatiel because vet bills are pretty high…
and i need to take him to have exams to see if he is sick or if he has any diseases because
i had a sick bird in my house about two days ago.. and that bird ended up dying so im a bit scared for my cockatiel..
the only insurance i know about is VPI.. and i have seen some pretty bad reviews about it…
does anyone know a about different pet insurances for birds??
Also I live in california…
Try your local Veterinary practise they usually can give the name of a company that can cover your bird.
They do in the U.K.
What about universal pet care ?
Posted by admin in Veterinary Pet Insurance on November 7, 2010
Should veterinary services be included in the governments health insurance program ?
Sure why not. Abortions are included. I’m waiting for plastic surgery and sex changes to be covered too.
Whimsy- Are you sure? Because I see a lot of liberals who protect the rights of animals more than the rights of humans (You kill a bear attacking you, you are imprisoned for protecting yourself all because "you were in the bear’s territory!"… sure so when they get attacked by a bear will they just let themselves get mauled to death? lol)
Sorry I know I went off topic…
What is a good pet insurance plan (please provide web site link)?
There are actually quite a few established pet insurance companies, and several new ones starting up. It’s really important to shop around and make sure you are getting what you want in a policy. Likewise, it is important to familiarize yourself with some of the terms that you will find in the policy you may decide to buy.
Some plans are cheaper, but cover less. Other plans are more expensive, but cover more. The type of plan, and the company you decide on depends on where you are most comfortable in the blending of coverage versus price.
It’s very important to compare plans on an "apples for apples" basis. For example, when you shop for plans you should see if you can download and review a benefit schedule for the type of plan you are interested in. Then, find out how much your plan is going to cost. Then find comparable plans at other companies and do the same.
Make sure you are reading about all of the restrictions that may be applicable to your policy. You will see terms like deductibles, co-pays, benefit limits and exclusions are all important things to consider.
A good website to review some of these terms (to help educate yourself about what is in a policy) is http://www.thebestpetinsurance.com it is a site that is working to provide unbiased basic information to the pet insurance consumer.
The most important thing is to spend some time learning about what you get in your policy for the money spent. The amount and type of coverage should be the maximum amount you can get for your dollar, and be a policy that provides the protection you are happy with. A little research now can help prevent some serious disappointment later on.
Best of luck in your search.
My dog is vomitting and pooping blood, got checked by vets and they say shes fine, what can I do?
Posted by admin in Dog Vacinations on November 7, 2010
My 2yr old has gotten really sick about 3-4 times since i’ve had her. She either vomitt the yellow bile, foaming saliva or blood. She will get diarrhea with blood at times, she usually acts lathargic and doesnt eat but will drink water.
First time the vet said to deworm her because her fecal exam came out okay.
But last summer she got extremely sick would not eat or drink and she was just not herself. I was out of town and took her to two different vets, first vet just gave her liquids and pills to prevent the vomitting. she continued to be sick and I took her to a diff vet about 3 days later, she had xray, physical, blood work done. EVERYTHING FINE! how can this be? yesterday again she vomitted blood and foam, and blood on her stool, she is still acting herself, jumping yet eating less. I dont know what to do, I still had meds from last time for the vomitting and diarrhea but im still worried what can be wrong with her? She is up to date with all her vacinations & dewormed.
I have been told it can be ulcers? do dogs get ulcers and wouldn’t it have shown on the exams? Also they’ve said that because of her size (little 3lbs yorkie) her stomach is very sensitive, but I only give her dog food or boiled chicken without bones, so how can that be. Im scared that she could have something and has gone unditected by three different vets.
I would call the vet back and be very stearn with them, tell them if she was okay she wouldnt be pooping blood, tell them if they cant figure it out you will go somewhere else and do that if need be.
How can I keep my cats inside the house and have a dog door so the dog can go out?
My cats have to be inside and if I get a doggy door and a dog, they will learn how to escape thru the door. I have a fenced yard, but the cats could easily jump the fence. What do others do when cats and dogs live together??
Have a fenced in dog run made of chain link coming right from the Dog Door… complete with a ‘ceiling’. That way if the cats get out, they cant ‘get out’.
I would also think to put the doggie door in a wall versus in a door, as people would not be able to walk out into the yard with the run in the way.
