Fecal incontinence after possible spinal injury8 Dec 2024, 09:53I had a spinal injury a few years ago and the surgeon warned me of permanent nerve damage causing incontinence being a potential consequence if it got worse. It's called "cauda equina syndrome", I did a quick search and it looks like it occurs in dogs too. Essentially you lose all nerve feeling on your bowel, hence not knowing when you need to go. I'm not sure what the solution is (if any) but it could be a clue.

Belly Rash22 Jul 2024, 15:49Did she always have them or did they start after something/some time? Do antihistamines clear the problem?

Safi is 229 Dec 2023, 17:10OMG, nooooo! She's so good now, it's not time for terrible twos! I have noticed that she does need to be told multiple times to do things nowadays but she's very well behaved in general, we have a good understanding going on.
Thanks for the warning! -

Vet Visit for Exam and Boosters and Anxiety20 Dec 2023, 14:24In addition to what Elbrant said, you could try valerian or st john's wort for calming. You could also try desensitising him, drive to the vet a few times (if it's practical) but don't go in, give him a reward for staying calm etc. I'd personally avoid pharmaceuticals.

Will not pee25 Oct 2023, 13:22My B won't pee or poo on my property at all or even in the vicinity, I have to take her for a walk down the road to get her to go. It started around the same sort of time, before that she used to go in the garden or drive no problem.

Car crate or booster seat?4 May 2023, 13:09Ah ok cool thanks, I had something like that when Safi was smaller and it was the most successful for sure. She outgrew it quite quickly though
