Hello, please my dog is having a nasty infection. This started some days ago. She stayed out overnight in tye compound which she doesn't normally do. I attached a picture of it. It wasn't like this before but seems to be getting worse.

It doesn't look like it's itching her but she keeps licking it

Please I am so sorry for the long delay. If it's still possible can I get pictures so as to have an idea of what is going on

bdj:
Morning Dr.,
It’s been a while. Trust that you are well?
I changed location and since then, I have been noticing a bruise on my dogs elbow. Picture is attached herewith.
Please what can I apply?

Good morning sir, it's been a while. If you don't observe any other symptom just simply get any over the counter antifungal/antinflammatory cream and apply over the affected area. I'll be on standby

We are debating this because we are in Nigeria. If you move abroad, go and shoot someone because you catch him having sex with your wife. If the sex is consensual, you will be tried for murder and probably get life sentence. If you like, hire Barrack Obama as your lawyer.

You can plead temporary insanity

AqualinaXYZ:
People never learn



If you’re seeing this and you’ve millions for investment please and please don’t invest in Nigeria you’ll cry blood



Otedola even advised Dangote not to invest in Nigeria but Dangote thought it was going to be business as usual



PLEASE DONT INVEST IN NIGERIA IT WILL BE A HUGE LOSS

Then you will later complain blame the government for unemployment

Alright Doc, thanks! I’ll keep you posted

Morning Doc, I have a two week old pup (18 days actually) that’s been suffering from diarrhea since Thursday evening. I rushed out to get diastop but it wasn’t available so I was given an alternative “diarox”. I’ve been administering 2ml daily since Friday evening but there’s been no improvement. The pup is still energetic and he’s nursing just fine.

Good morning sir, we are assuming the drug is original and you are administering it properly. If yet you're still observing these symptoms, then the diarrhea may be caused by her feed which she maybe reacting to, or there is a microorganism in her system causing the diarrhea. Ideally the diarox should have been accompanied with broad spectrum antibiotics (e.g metronidazole or amoxicillin). At this juncture I'll advice you still check for Novax (a brand of diastop) and ask the pharmacist to recommend a good antibiotics for the digestive system, meanwhile start preparing to take her to the clinic where comprehensive tests would be carried out and the actual cause pinpointed and solved. I'll be on standby for feedback

IceDune:


Dark stuffs in the ear. The only symptoms he shows is scratching the inside of the ear and shaking/flapping ears violently

It's possible we are dealing with Tinitis which maybe due to ear mites or bacterial infection or simply foreign body. You would need to visit a clinic where appropriate test to determine the cause would be conducted. You are likely to be administered antibiotics and antiinflammatory drugs which may be in form of ear drop. I'll be on standby

alexalexalex:
Hello Dr please is this mange on my dog? I had to shave the hair when I noticed she was shedding a lot. How can I treat this

I advice you get Armitraz and use it to bathe her every 2 weeks. Then administer multivitamins especially rich in Vit C and B. Ensure proper environmental hygiene

Clevagal:


Thanks doc but you didn’t answer the first question. Please is he due for vaccination? Last time he took the dhpp and anti rabies was may 2023 (he was 3 months then). He’s 1 year+ now

He is due for anti rabies as it is annually. Sorry for the delay

Clevagal:
Good Afternoon Dr Seun and God bless you for all you do.

Please, i last vaccinated my dog May 2023 (shop and anti rabies). I lost his card and I don’t know when next he’s due for both vaccines. He’s 1 year and 3 months now. A Lhasa apso.

Also do you have an idea how much these vaccines cost now?

The price varies depending on location and I won't want to mislead you. But I'll advise you go to a standard veterinary clinic for the vaccination. I'll be on standby

sheggsliveth:



Thanks for response Sir,did i need to visit pet shop or i should just get it in any pharmacy.i would like if you can prescribe a specific one for me

Pet shop is the best but Incase you don't see, you can use human

sheggsliveth:
Good evening Mr seunH


Hello Sir, please prescribe drugs to make my dog eat very well sir, she's GSD 12 weeks, she's small compared to the male. Her vaccinations is upto date. I feed her noodles with crunching fish and dry food she hardly eat...i would have snap the card here but the vet didn't record it due to i wasn't at home when he injected the last vaccine.

Got her this for deworming finished it today making 2days

Good evening sir,
Get her multivitamins especially Vitamin C, while you prepare to take her for routine check up

IceDune:


Please my 9months old dog is always scratching the inside of her eyes or shaking her head violently

Good morning sir, which other symptoms are you seeing? examine her ears and tell me what you see

majortwild:


Alright already sent a mail via ur profile

majortwild:


For now nothing he said he is going to have to take her for treatment of the Jaundice because i just noticed yesterday the the underneath of the dog is turning Yellowish and the eye is just starting to turn yellow. I dont know what to do currently I'm totally confused, please what medication do u think the vet should administer? (I just want to know so i can be updated along side my vet doc) Since Parvo is ruled out at least my fear of transmission of Parvo is on a safer side since it's jaundice

It depends on the type of jaundice, but put your mind at rest, all will be well. Send me a dm, so that I will give you my contact, perhaps we can discuss better.

Mr Seun Goof morning

Please come to my rescue since yesterday i noticed my 4 months old Boerboel puppy are showing signs of parvo , he didn't eat much and hasn't drank water (not to my notice) also the stool is a bit watery and his losing weight, my vet first advised me to deworm with Zentel which i did and no effect. Then he said i should give him vitamin E which i also did but this morning it's still the same no improvement. I have invited the vet doc over for treatment, but now here's my problem tho i have been using this vet doc since 2 yrs now which is the only vet doc around my side but unfortunately last year i lost a dog to him via say he didn't take it as serious as i thought. From my research u are meant to put the dog on IV fluid and other meds but he didn't put the dog on IV he only gave injection and oral drugs which didn't help until it grew worse and died. Please Mr Seun if there's any suggestions u have or any meds i can use to support what the doc is doing please help me i dont want to lose this pup , the most annoying part is i dont take any of dogs out so I'm wondering how on earth it contacted this virus , ever since the first 1 died i dont take any of my dogs out to mingle he said that parvo is airborne. Mr seun please help.

Update: the vet said the dog has jaundice, please what can i do

Good afternoon sir, and I'm so sorry about what is going on. You've done the right thing by taking her to the Vet where appropriate intervention would be done. Meanwhile you will need to disinfect your environment and ensure all your dog's utensils are sterilized. By the way what interventions has your Vet given so far so that I'll know how to come in

If only children knows what a real Father goes through to make things around the home work fine.... They will sing beautiful songs for their Dad.

The reason why people do sing songs of appreciation for their mum is mostly cos of the struggles that women go through are mainly physical and it's all seen in the eye. Women are creatures of emotion so it's easy for people to see their struggle through emotional side.

When we were little, whenever my Dad comes home from shop, sometimes he will be angry,sometimes he will be sad. In all the time, he always made sure we never lacked . When I came of age and started following him to shop, I found out that from morning till night he wont eat a thing. I thought he was fasting then. I never knew that he was starving so that we will eat. He was starving so as to be able to meet up family needs. Sometimes when we ask him for money or stuffs he will tell us off. We will become angry and meet our mum who will give us the money. I never understood all this until I grew up. Now I'm a man and I'm facing issues and see reasons why my Dad behaves the way he do then.

If u think a woman struggles more than a man, try ask a widow what she goes through then u will understand.

Do u know what it is to take care of yourself talkless of adding two, three, four people to yourself and be the sole provider of them all. Many will say women will do it. And I will tell u that 98% of women cant take care of a family without complaining when the Father is around doing nothing.

Word on marble especially the last part

She's almost 2yrs old

Good evening sir, try changing her food to something she finds irresistible, while we prepare to take her for general check up. I'll be on standby

How old is she

alexalexalex:
Hello Dr. Which deworming medication is good for adult Eskimo. Is it shanuzole or tablet. If shanuzole, how much should I administer. I have a dog that just gave birth 4 days ago too, I also want to ask if I can deworm her. Thank you

Ill advice that you should be patient a lil bit if the worm infestation is not severe, let her recover from the stress of labor. Ill be on standby

adesammie:
Good Morning Doc, I just bought a Boerboel puppy (male) of 2 months ago and was brought to me (my house) on Sunday. The puppy hasn't been eaten the spiced crunchies I have been given to him (meanwhile according to the breeder he loves the spiced crunchies so much), he will only lick the egg and the canned food i used to spice the crunchies. He hasn't been taken anything except canned food (Royal Max) and sometime, he will not even eat the canned food excitingly, maybe eat little and then return to it later. He did not take the pap I prepared for him last night and the crunchies I prepared along with the pap (I did that so he could choose between the two). He did not touch them except to lick up the wet food (canned food) I used to spice the crunchies. Around 11pm when I observed he did not take the two meal I prepared, I decided to give him half of a canned food which I noticed he ate.

This morning before I left for the office I observed he threw up. Because I was running late I only manage to clean the cage and left some canned food spice with boiled egg for him, I am not even sure if he will eat it. What can I do and could be responsible?

NB: He has been vaccinated once but a Vet will be coming on Friday to give him the 2nd shot. Although from the card I was given by the breeder he was due for the 2nd shot on March 5. He was dewormed too during the 1st shot.

I am so sorry for what your pet is going through. Ill advice we allow the Vet conduct an evaluation, that will enable us pin point the cause. Meanwhile, ill be on stand by

samistry:
Good day, sir. I found a sudden sore on the foot of my dog.
I hardly release her to walk around.
Please what could be the cause?

Please can you give me more information about what is really going on

Sampike:
Okay thanks alot sir, really appreciate it
Please what are those foods with calories and I'm planning on getting this food tomorrow cuz I notice they come up alittle when I bought 5kg of it last month, should I go ahead with it sir?

Food rich in carbohydrate. Of course you can go ahead

Sampike:
The gsd is 6month and the boerboel is 10month

Administer multivitamins and make her diet rich in calorie while you ensure you routinely deworm. I'll be on standby

samistry:
Hello, Sir. I'm having issues correcting my Caucasian. She doesn't listen to me like my gsd.
When i resort to beating her, she growls her teeth and bites the stick.

Try the reward system and avoid breathing her, she may grow wild and difficult to control. Sometimes such behaviors may be genetic and there is little you can do about it

Sampike:
Good evening Mr Seun
please what formula of food can I give my dogs, gsd and boerboel, have used different type of food and not really coming up

what age are they sir?

[quote author=elpochas post=128625367][/quote] This is an open wound, clean the area with a mild soap and water, then apply GV on the wound, this should drive flies away and promote wound healing, if the flies are still an issue get fly repellent spray. Then administer vitamin C

elpochas:
Good day SeunH.Pls my dog Ear was injured by files,pls what can I apply on it.cos the wound is getting worst.

Good morning sir, if you wouldn't mind sharing the picture, so as for us to know the extent of injury

alexalexalex:

Or do you think it might be the multivitamin I gave her yesterday?

It may also be pregnancy hormonal changes, I doubt if it's the multivitamin, but to be on the safe side, try and get her checked

alexalexalex:
Mr Seun.

Please my dog is 50 days pregnant and she vomited like 4 times today. And this include all the food she ate and throughout. What can I do? But she's active though

She is in a sensitive period. You'll need to first find out the cause of the vomit, could it be the food? Environment etc or are you observing any sickness symptoms? That would guide us in the next step while you prepare to take her to the clinic

alexalexalex:
Mr Seun.

Please I want to know if it's advisable to deworm my pregnant dog

It depends on the active ingredient of the dewormer and the stage of pregnancy. But personally if the worm infestation is not severe, ill advice you to be patient sir
