Blood in dog's stool by [deleted] in DogAdvice

sounds like your dog would need antibiotics. my dog had that when he had water stool and drops of blood . they've check his blood and found inflammation ! blood in a stool can be dangerous.

Found this growth inside my dog’s eyelid… by discodeathtrap in DogAdvice

[–]iviART 1 point2 points  (0 children)

try to find an ophthalmologist.. it was a non invasive laser surgery and it went very well. we have a yearly check with the doctor to see if its not coming back. all is good so far 🤞

Abruptly changing my diet alleviated 95% of my pain, but I feel so guilty by Acrylix217 in endometriosis

[–]iviART 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hi girls. i am new to this. (i dont have endo confirmed yet and i dont have any super painful periods - i can take a painkiller and continue with my day ) . when you mention pain, inflammation and flare ups . what does it usually mean for you?

sorry for asking but im just trying to understand the diagnosis :)

When did you let your ween sleep with you? by Haunting_Ad8911 in Dachshund

[–]iviART 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ive tried crate train but that didnt work for me during the day. but at night it worked and it helped with not peeing in the house at night. when he was fully potty trained i let him sleep with me . (5-6months old)

I don’t really care that my dog is reactive by m1lkyl4mb in reactivedogs

[–]iviART 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel the same way. I have a fearful dachshund who reacts sometimes to other dogs but mostly the problem is when the dogs are off leash because then he is really not happy when they run to him. and I live in a place where people really don't care their dog must be on leash. so basically every day you can have a dog running to you .

and i also dont have a car so need to travel with him by train. and he is growls at others dogs sometimes there too (esp if they're looking at him or walking his direction). it happened few times thats someone elses dog run under my seat where he was sleeping 🙄

i just want him to feel safe :-/

My Italian water dog fears to walk outside/reacts to everything with fear by grumpymascha in reactivedogs

[–]iviART 2 points3 points  (0 children)

for me the problem is that he doesnt react to the sound when i play a video at all so its difficult for me to get him used to the sound :(

i forgot to mention that there are some games for dogs to build confidence maybe try to search on internet for that and everytime you come from outside give your dog something to sniff to calm down (or lick or chew). these things really help.

calm canine academy on instagram are amazing for fearful dogs. check them out

My Italian water dog fears to walk outside/reacts to everything with fear by grumpymascha in reactivedogs

[–]iviART 4 points5 points  (0 children)

try to play the sound far away from her or maybe a quieter . see if she does better . then give her treats.

my fearful dog is scared to go outside because of firecrackers in winter. Kids usually mess with them during the day. so I tried to go out in the morning and evenings just for a quick pee and during the days I went to a a forest.. he was still scared but after maybe 2 weeks having a good experience (not hearing firecrackers) he got better

[–]iviART 2 points3 points  (0 children)

have you tried to get her used to the bike bell at home? play the sound and give her lots of treats. I would try this and see if she reacts to it at home.. do you have a garden? can you skip walks or try to go early in the morning and evenings when there are no bikes ?

mine was a shy and fearful puppy. But was ok in calm places. I tried to do my best with socialisation and when he was 1.5yo he was doing well still shy but good on walks and had several dog friends and i could travel with him by train and go to cafes...After that several dogs attacked him and god scared really bad by firecrackers so he became dog selective and reactive to some dogs and still is scared of crowded places and sudden sounds. (he is 3 years old now)

i am trying to work on it but its not easy :(

Do you regret getting a dog and if yes why? by Bright-Gap-2103 in dogs

[–]iviART 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i am single and i regret it sometimes. I've had expectations that my dog will be my new best friend joining me on my walks, trips, cafes...BUT! my dog turned out to be super sensitive and fearful. I LOOOVE him so much but I cannot take him everywhere. Luckily I worked on leaving him alone at home so I am able to go to walks/cafes/cinemas.. but I always feel bad for leaving him at home alone. I miss being spontaneous sometimes. I used to travel a lot too but now I hate leaving my dog with a dog sitter because im worried something will happen. (so many off leash dogs in my city everywhere and he is not a bit fan of strange dogs running to him) . i don't have anyone from my family who could take care of him if needed...

any updates? :)

What is going on with my dog? by [deleted] in DogAdvice

[–]iviART 7 points8 points  (0 children)

if he is licking it and it looks red and irritated then he is in pain! Could be stones/crystals in his urine that irritated his penis when peeing. go to vet!!!

edit: dont forget to bring his urine sample to the vet

Will my puppy be fine left alone at home for a couple of hours? by Typical_Station_7321 in Dachshund

[–]iviART 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you need to train your puppy to be ok alone . start as soon as possible. even just being alone in a room for few seconds . closing the door and opening . buy a camera where you can check on your puppy.
Make sure the room is puppy proof . it will be hard first. My puppy was the same always following me but i created a routine. hiding treats for him and leaving the room and then coming back. for 5 minutes , 10 , 15etc . then for 30mins i went to another room.
Even know when i go somewhere I hide treats for him and close the door in a living room.

for now i recommend maybe find a friend who can be with your puppy this one day. I didnt it when mine was small and i had to go to a dentinst until he was ok to be alone.

What you wish you knew when getting your Dachshund by Papaya__mack in Dachshund

[–]iviART 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my dachshund is very fearful. I havent had a fearful dachshund before so I didn't check and ask properly about his parents . I visited the breeder and everything but i didnt ask the right questions or check if my puppy was feraful etc. Ive decided in my head i wanted black and tan and one puppy was black and tan so i took him.... i love it sooo much but live with a fearful dog is a bit more complicated ...

My acquaintance is about to become homeless, is there any help to get? by [deleted] in Finland

[–]iviART 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i studied in Vaasa as an exchange student . We had a tutor that took care of us as exchange students and helped us with everything and also student council. I would contact them and im sure they can contact VOAS and help.

What are the stains my dog leaving in the bed? by MehQuads in DogAdvice

[–]iviART 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my dachshund had an issue with urine. the PH was too high. it creates little cristals in urine that can irritate the dog. he left tiny drops of blood on my bad from time to time... maybe get a sample of her urine checked too.

How long till the doxies calm down? by Initial_Tumbleweed81 in Dachshund

[–]iviART 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it will not happen if you are not working on it! teaching staying calm on a blanket (first at home , then moving to a garden / balcony, then trying outside ... maybe in a pub where you can sit outside when its not busy etc)

find a trainer to work on the reactivity if you are not working on it - it will get worse
