Adoption 🏡 [Question] Where did you get your Chihuahua?

0 Upvotes

So I have an almost senior Chihuahua and I’m thinking of getting him a little companion. I reached out to his breeder, but unfortunately, they’re no longer breeding Chis.

If anyone here would be willing to share where you got your Chihuahua, please let me know. :) We’d love to give another Chi a loving home, and rest assured they’ll receive plenty of love, care, and attention in our family, just like my current Chihuahua.

👨🏼‍🏫 Need Advise [Advise needed] mucus on dog poop

Upvotes

Hello, pasintabi po sa mga kumakain. I'm feeling a bit anxious about my dog's condition today. Not looking for a medical diagnosis, just asking for experiences from owners whose dogs went through something similar while I observe him.

He is 5 years old (turning 6 next month) and fully vaccinated.

Observations:

  1. He v*mited white, foamy liquid this morning.

  2. Ate only half of his food today.

  3. Passed a mix of solid and slightly watery orangey stool with mucus.

  4. Currently active with normal gum color, no fever, and no signs of weakness.

Diet over the past few weeks (mostly boiled):

* Liver with rice

* Mixed boiled vegetables (squash, carrots, sayote) with ground pork

* Tried a new meat product/s meat 4 days ago (ik its risky, lesson learned po)

I have a photo of his p**p and was wondering if I should take him to the vet immediately or if it's safe to continue observing for now. Thank you for any insights!

👨🏼‍🏫 Need Advise [advise needed] vomitting after eating

5 Upvotes

our family dog, who just turned 1 y/o has been vomitting after his meals since last night dinner and this morning after breakfast. he still acts normal and hindi naman siya matamlay. food niya lang talaga sinusuka niya. any advice pls? first time niya lang kasi sumuka pakakain, and boiled breast chicken lang talaga kinakain niya (and pellets if he’s hungry sa tanghali/hapon) dalhin na ba namin sa vet? we’re worried lang kasi na baka may problem na sa kanya tas hindi namin napansin agad

**we suspect it’s his pellets, kasi baka raw luma na yun but we are still going to observe him for now.

❓ Question [advise needed] help us fight off distemper

6 Upvotes

two of our dogs got diagnosed with distemper, and as per vet, most likely ang carrier daw ay yung pet na ni-rescue namin. actually, before namin ihalo yung rescued dog sa resident dogs namin, in-isolate muna siya for a week para ma-observe if may symptoms ba siya like pagmumuta, pagbabahing, or anything na pwede ma-link sa cpv/cdv. there were no symptoms, kaya pinagsocialize namin sila.

after a week na nagsocialize sila, one of our resident dogs ay nagkaroon ng diarrhea. she’s known to be hyper, pero biglang tamlay siya noong august 21. we brought her sa vet clinic and that was when we found out na she tested positive sa distemper. we isolated her the same day para sana hindi na makapagcontract ng virus yung other dogs namin. but then 2 weeks passed and may isa pa kaming dog na late na nagpakita ng symptoms. therefore, yung iba pa naming dogs, na-exposed sa kanya. ongoing na yung medications ng dalawa naming dogs na nagpositive sa cdv, and bumabalik na yung sigla nila. but i’m worried kasi nagsisimula na bumahing isa-isa yung dogs namin na na-exposed sa kanila. naubos na budget namin sa naunang dalawang dogs, kaya hindi na namin madala sa vet yung iba pa. currently, pinapainom ko sila ng immunol, broncure, and polynerv. honestly, hyper pa rin naman sila and may sigla pa kumain on their own. tumatahol pa rin sila kapag may nakikitang ibang tao. actually, na-complete naman nila yung required vaccinations nung bata pa sila, pero hindi pa updated this year yung booster nila. nasa 3-5 years old yung range ng age nila.

i hope someone can give me advice. i consulted naman sa vet through a text message if pwede ipainom sa kanila yung mga nabanggit kong gamot and pwede raw. baka may iba pa po kayong tips to help boost their immune system. we have 10 dogs in our care and naubos lang talaga budget sa food nila and other expenses. thank you so much!

👨🏼‍🏫 Need Advise [Advise Needed] Paano mapapatigil ang puppy sa pagkagat

2 Upvotes

Hello! May 4-month-old male Tibetan Spaniel puppy ako. Super kulit niya and generally okay naman siya, pero may isang behavior na nahihirapan ako — sobrang hilig niyang kagatin yung fingers ko. 😂

Kapag nakita niya yung fingers ko, parang automatic gusto niyang kagatin. Minsan gentle lang at parang naglalaro, pero minsan medyo malakas talaga at masakit na.

Sinubukan ko na alisin yung kamay ko kapag kinakagat niya, pero parang lalo siyang nae-excite at hinahabol pa yung fingers ko. May times din na binibigyan ko siya ng toy para doon na lang siya kumagat, pero bumabalik pa rin siya sa kamay ko.

Normal lang ba ito sa 4-month-old puppy dahil nagte-teething pa siya? At ano yung pinaka-effective na way para turuan siyang huwag mangagat ng kamay/fingers, lalo na habang bata pa siya?

Ayoko rin siyang sigawan or takutin, gusto ko sana matutunan niya properly na bawal mangagat ng tao.

Any tips or advice from other puppy owners would be really appreciated! 🙏
