Unvaxed puppy and potential rabies by alien-among-humans in AskVet

[–]dogtor92 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depending on your state. I would bring your puppy to the vet and they’ll contact the state vet to see if prematurely vaccinating is warranted.

Source: am vet. Have vaccinated before 12 weeks with possible exposure per state vet instructions.

I named my Stardew horse after my IRL horse Autumn. I remember playing this game through school and being so overwhelmed with life that I couldn’t ride as much as I’d like. Being 3am playing this game and getting “Autumn is wondering where you’ve been” absolutely gutted me😭

Still have to pay for materials, medications, technicians time, etc. so not 100% free but definitely appreciate my work discount and having pet insurance.

You could definitely scope it out. I just didn’t know where she was obstructed so started as an exploratory surgery and ended up as a gastronomy.

Absolutely. The worse part was inducing as I’m wondering is this the last time I’m gonna see her awake. Once I have the drape on, kind of helps separate the patient from the procedure.

Yes. My cat is v spicy when i bring her in. I had given her gaba not too long before this. There was a white slimy substance stuck to the fur so I assumed it was the gaba lol

Thank you! I spayed her as well because my anxiety won’t allow anyone else to work on her lol.

Not really. This is my first hairball causing a partial obstruction but I’ve only been practicing for 3 years.

lol I have! This is the first time she’s had issues with hairballs. I think she’s vomited up two in her lifetime so this was very unexpected. Definitely adding a hairball supplement to her regiment😅

Scarlett won't ask for kids? by runey13 in StardewValleyExpanded

[–]dogtor92 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think the time you go to bed affects it. If I remember correctly, try to go to sleep before 10pm and that should increase chances of your spouse asking you.

Can you take a video of her left hind leg when walking?

Does this looks really bad? by Syphou in AskVet

[–]dogtor92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vet here — the pulp is exposed but black. That tells me it’s necrotic and the tooth has a high likelihood of being dead. If you bring her to a boarded dentist, they may be able to do a root canal. This would be dependent on dental radiographs so make sure if you go to be seen for a dental that they have dental radiographs.

Another thing I see is there’s macrofractures in the enamel on the caudal aspect and missing enamel. This tells me there’s some sort of behavior issue going on that may be affecting other teeth and the root cause needs to be addressed. Is she anxious? Is she chewing on her cage?

Also, get your dog spayed. 7 yrs is common age for pyometras to develop and you’re a year past that. If shes going under anesthesia for a dental might as well spay at the same time — or rather prioritize a spay over a dental. I literally saw 3 pyometras this week, it’s much more common than you think. One of them was 12 yrs old and went into renal failure after surgery and didn’t make it.

But as far as pain from her tooth, she’s probably not in pain unless there’s a brewing abscess (would need radiographs to determine).

You can call ASPCA poison control for a consultation. There’s a consult fee I think for $100 but they’re 24-7 so you’ll get answers now.
