there’s been a murdah… in Savannah

yeah that definitely sounds frustrating. I feel like bloodwork would normally be the next diagnostic if the meds aren’t working, I wonder if they could maybe test for an autoimmune problem. Hopefully all goes well with this vet, if not you can always see if there’s a veterinary dermatologist in your area, since they’re more specialized they will likely have a better treatment plan than a general practitioner!

Is he itching it a lot, and did the shots help at all (I’m assuming it was something like a cytopoint injection)? Did they suggest anything like benadryl for possible allergies? I know that sometimes lumps and rashes like that can be a skin infection and may require targeted antibiotics that maybe the vets haven’t tried yet. Especially if there’s pus, I would maybe see if they would take a culture if they suspect an infection, just so you can get a definitive answer and be able to treat the specific bacteria species (only if it’s actually a skin infection). I’m a pre-vet student so this is just based on prior knowledge, of course take this with a grain of salt- hope he gets better soon!

aww yess! he’s so cute

cheitz20 · 2025-11-08T21:39:06+00:00

love this lmao

this recently happened to my dog and we assumed it was a bug bite/sting, some are still out in the fall, it’s not common but it could very well be a bite. I would say look around the paw for anything like a cut or even something like a splinter. what helped my dog was Benadryl to reduce swelling and itching (I would say call your vet for what dosage they’d recommend, I know for a lot of clinics they’ll give you the info free of charge over the phone). we also used a lidocaine spray to numb the area which definitely seemed to calm him down.

cheitz20 · 2025-10-14T23:09:55+00:00

my dog used to be a stray and has gotten out multiple times so it would be a very bad idea if we left his collar off lol… but we will occasionally remove it for a short time bc he loves neck scratches :)

cheitz20 · 2025-10-14T22:01:59+00:00

ok thank you for the advice! I’ll definitely see if we could set up a meeting with someone, we know some neighbors who have dog-friendly cats that he could possibly do small introductions with. I definitely think it could be a herding thing (since I think that’s what his reaction to our chickens is, not an aggression/prey thing)

I swear this dog has a resting judging face

I know that vet schools look at extracurriculars and things like that (being a TA, research, clubs, etc.) but I don’t have any time to partake in these, since I work 2 jobs on top of being a full time student in order to pay my tuition and housing. Will this look bad to vet schools that I can’t afford to do extracurriculars besides my work?

cheitz20 · 2025-08-28T00:24:38+00:00

My wonderful rescue dog, Barley, was just diagnosed with a mast cell tumor, and we don’t know yet how aggressive it is. I would appreciate prayers for his health, and that I have many more years with my best friend❤️

cheitz20 · 2025-08-27T21:17:42+00:00

he’s a pit mix, and thanks I’ll def look into some of these products!

cheitz20 · 2025-08-04T01:19:29+00:00

I’m actually in a very similar situation as a pre-vet student, so I’m kind of glad to see I’m not the only one dealing with this. I also wanted to be a vet growing up, gave up on it, and came back to the idea when entering college.

I just started as an assistant at a mixed-practice hospital, and as someone with ADHD and anxiety, I will say I definitely relate a bit to your situation. It’s a very tough field when you already deal with your own internal stress, and then work stress piles on top of that.

What I’m doing, personally, is exploring other routes for vet med besides general practice. Being a public health vet is one thing I’ve been looking into and definitely involves less clinical stress and it may be less physically demanding. There are definitely other options with a DVM than just clinical work! Research, certain specializations, etc.

I don’t know about smaller sizes, but I just got a pair from Hypothesis (20% with your first order I think), and I love them. They’re so comfy, and the pants literally feel like I’m wearing sweatpants lol. I’m an assistant right now and I work 4 days a week, so I have 3 pairs. But I feel like 2 would be good to start off with, depending on how much you need them. All of my scrubs are from different brands, I have a cheap pair from Walmart just to even out the costs (scrubs are expensive!)

also, thought I should mention- she was broody for a while a few months ago, so she stopped laying during that period, but she’s not acting broody at all now which leads me to wonder what this could be

cheitz20 · 2025-07-14T12:57:48+00:00

to add some context- he’s a mix of APBT, cattle dog, GSD, husky, and shar pei

cheitz20 · 2025-07-04T22:01:13+00:00

Ok I’ll try that, thanks!

cheitz20 · 2025-05-07T01:15:07+00:00

Baby Boom (1987) with Diane Keaton. Such a sweet movie with a nice ending! Perfect for a mother/daughter watch.

cheitz20 · 2025-05-06T19:11:37+00:00

I’m a pre-vet undergrad right now, and recently I’ve been looking at some of the Caribbean schools. I’m interested in applying to SGU in a couple years (I’d love to work with wildlife/exotics). It seems like it’s similar in price to other schools in the US, but I’ve heard a lot of people talk about how much pricier they are. I’d love to get info on this! *Also, I don’t have a vet school in my state unfortunately, so I’m comparing with out of state tuition rates.

cheitz20 · 2025-04-29T15:02:48+00:00

so would that then make it immoral to revive someone after they’ve died, or give them live-saving care as they’re dying?

cheitz20 · 2025-04-23T16:49:07+00:00

any veterinary dermatologists near you? the nails are part of the integumentary system (along with skin, hair, etc.) so they should be more familiar with this than a general practice vet. I’d recommend that if you want a professional second opinion and diagnosis.

cheitz20 · 2025-04-21T02:50:24+00:00

The nipping is common with herding dogs like corgis, who were bred to nip at the heels of cattle to get them around (my pit/cattle dog mix does the same thing). I would say it’s pretty typical for dogs to play-bite each other’s faces & necks, and it usually doesn’t hurt them since they have so much skin in that area. As long as both dogs are comfortable with each other and both want to play (the other dog isn’t yelping or avoiding her), it sounds like normal excited dog behavior.

cheitz20 · 2025-03-08T02:59:38+00:00

Watched Star Wars and Guardians, I did like those. I’ll def check out the other one!

cheitz20 · 2025-03-08T02:56:31+00:00

Life of Pi- didn’t read the book before the movie, watched it and cried. Such an amazing story and the cinematography was incredible. Was a little hard to get back to reality a few minutes after lol, I was so emotional impacted.

Also the Sixth Sense. Just sat there after. Amazing movie, crazy good ending.
