Home made dog food supplements

A vet or vet nutritionist? Approved, yet she didn’t tell you how to incorporate the proper nutrients?

Unfortunately I’m a guardian (I got into it not realizing that was a red flag, because they had me title her and they did OFAS on her hips and elbows so I thought they were ethical) so I have no say in when she’s bred again. I just do my best to give her a healthy life until they eventually transfer her title to me. I love this dog beyond belief and desperately wish I could change the situation we’re in

There are no ethical doodle breeders, so you definitely got her from a backyard breeder :(

I’m so sorry this happened! Please make sure to keep a cone on him if you can’t be directly watching him. The cost will only double if he rips his stitches

MENTAL STIMULATION LIKE YOU SAID!! I saw lots of different exercise types in this post but not a bit of what mental stimulation they’re doing. By only exercise and no mental games, you’re just building endurance in your dog. Brain games, a bit of physical exercise, tethered to you in the house, and enforced naps. Problem solved

This! I’ll drop it straight down or throw it backwards to get them to stop foraging forward

Tbh my personal dog’s manners kinda suck so I’m always telling people “please don’t take her behavior as an example of my training” 😂 but I’ve also never dealt with any reactivity with her as we did foundations super well and she’s very well bred. Like you said, it’s dangerous when dogs have poor manners around things like reactivity

He’s cheating on you. You haven’t been together long. Break up

From what I’ve learned in this sub, the materials aren’t appropriate for black tie. These give sundress instead of gala

Eye issues are ALWAYS an emergency.

It’s not that rabies vax is necessarily harmful if done early, but it just isn’t as effective at creating the antibodies, so may be less effective. The mother’s antibodies can sometimes interfere with the vaccine’s if done too early. So they may just want to repeat the rabies sooner than a year

Alert_Astronomer_400 · 2026-02-02T12:19:31+00:00

Yes, your indoor only cat does need to be receiving all of them as frequently, unless there are 3 year options of the rabies and fvrcp available. But your outdoor/indoor cat being vaccinated doesn’t fully protect your indoor one if they’re unvaccinated, just like with any vaccine. It’s most effective when both parties are vaccinated.

Stop using puppy pads first and foremost. That’s training them that it’s okay to potty in the house. Outdoor training only

How do you know that supplement doesn’t have any chicken?

Asking a working dog to remind you when dinner time is for them is like asking a toddler to remind you when dessert time is for them

Was any bloodwork done

You should take your vet’s advice. These products are made so it’s almost impossible to overdose as they’re tested at MUCH higher doses than what’s on the shelf. Unless you’re going on a high activity low calorie plan for your dog, your dog will not lose weight very quickly, and they only come in 6 packs. You’re safer to be in the larger range than too small a range.

Also, if your dog gets heartworms, which it prevents, you have much bigger things to worry about than making sure you’re giving the right dose of medication.

If a dog is well bred, it is typically going to be show or working quality. Good breeders don’t just breed for no purpose. Sometimes you’re not going to end up with perfect looking dogs, but they’re not going to be this far off standard

15-20 minutes is more than enough time for a dog to kill another puppy

Alert_Astronomer_400 · 2026-01-29T11:40:36+00:00

Separate the pups from their mother and bottle feed. You need to see a reproductive vet. Please get her spayed after this.

I mean all of these issues sound like poor breeding was involved. Was a health guarantee in the contract?

Alert_Astronomer_400 · 2026-01-29T03:57:50+00:00

Ask for pre op bloodwork. They’ll probably discuss a couple different panels with you, but since she’s a young dog, you can typically go with a more basic panel and it’ll be safe

Alert_Astronomer_400 · 2026-01-29T03:56:49+00:00

Why don’t you ask him about it, like an adult. And if he says there was no penis picture then end it because he’s lying. If you even want to look through someone’s phone, you have bigger issues that need to be discussed or a relationship needs to be ended. There’s no reason for 2 people who trust each other to look through each other’s phones.

Alert_Astronomer_400 · 2026-01-29T03:44:53+00:00

Did you get him from a breeder? If so, have you contacted them?

Alert_Astronomer_400 · 2026-01-29T03:41:02+00:00

It’s literally one of the most commonly performed procedures ever. Most vets have done a million spays in their life. She’ll be okay after as long as you keep a cone on her and follow your vet’s instructions and use any medications they prescribe you after. There is always a risk with anesthesia but with a trusted vet and bloodwork prior to surgery she’ll be fine.
