    • Can human laxitives be given our pets

      My dog has suddenly decieded that he will not poop until i walk him near the tree line of my yard that backs into woods. The problem is that area is littered with tics and bugs, it is not good for me as well as my dog.

      If he does npt poop everyday, the poop hardens on his gut and he cries badly. He is a very picky eater so i cant give him pumpkin and other food that others are suggesting. Can i give hom laxatives like metamucil or ex-lax that are made for us???? Please help

    • RE: Health insurance?

      We did have insurance through VPI pet insurance. For a 4 years we used to pay around 250.00 per year. It covered little of regular visits . The insurance will beneficial if there is a expensive surgical procedure involved. ( they have guidelines about what is covered ).This yr they wanted to increase our premium and decrrase our benefits. We did not think it made sense anymore for us to keep it so we concelled it.

      Please be careful about all the fine print and ask them tp give you the catalog that shows you what is covered in the plan that u interested in . This way you can calculate if it is wroth taking the policy. Good Luck

    • RE: Help! - Basanji restless, pacing and acting scared

      Hi everyone….... very very glad and thrilled to inform that sunny is back to his normal self today. It was an allergy reaction and the depo shot did not work much.

      I stay at home , so he is with me all day , no loud noises. It could be that he is a little stressed out with the new accomodations, but now he is better.

      Thanks everyone all the prayers, advice and support. THOS FORUM ROCKS

    • RE: Help! - Basanji restless, pacing and acting scared

      He is doing much better …..i think. The isane head shaking and pacing is not there anymore. But he still is not sleeping just laying down with eyes open. But much less stressed .....................thank god........i thought i lost him last night. Hopefully this night everything will go smoothly.

      All the floors in this apt are hardwood, so no carpet chemicals. it could be the move stress but he seemed ok and not stressed. I am thinking it is bug bite allergy.

      His gums are nice and pinl and when i press the boold is filling back well.so hopefully is rapid breathing is not pain realted. Wicsh me luck tonight is the toughest time. i will keep u posted. 🙂

    • Any good Vets in NJ with experience in handeling our special hounds??

      I have taken suuny to 3 vets in his 5 year life span and dont really like any….......... I always had better luck diagnosing sunnys problems better myself than the vet. I always come back with NO REAL ANSWERS but always a HiGE bill . This month alone i spent 500.00 dollars for two vet visits.

      I can overlook the bill if the i had good resolutions .............

      Any suggestions ....Please help

    • RE: Help! - Basanji restless, pacing and acting scared

      Again i cant begin to tell how helpful all your suggestions have been. I started him on 25mg of benedryl from this morning, keeping my fingers crossed that it will do the trick.

      I checked his ears and so did the vet we both did not see anything that does not belong there.

      Sunny usually sleeps a good 12 to 13 hours a day if not more, since this drama started its been 48 hours that we or the dog slept. Yesterday his breathing was very shallow and rapid that concerned me a lot. Did any of your basenjis go through this type of breathing and sleepless rotiune????for
      Thanks a lot for all your help and advice 🙂
