my dog growing this lump on her toe for about half a year .... how ?

Looks like a sebaceous cyst, is it movable?

Keep monitoring, if it gets bigger then I think should see a vet. In fact, just go see a vet and get some tests done on that lump

 

[lycans]

no money lehhh cannot see vet so often ..... even if that lump grow on me I also no money to see vet

ya everybody says her nail long ....
but there is lots of pink stuff inside ... cannot cut until smooth and cute like a cat's paw

The pink stuff is called the kwik, dont cut it...or it will bleed like hell and your dog will hate u

Walk your dog on road (not during afternoon) to wear it down...if you scared of cutting then buy a nail filer to file away the edges so its not so sharp

it is slightly soft to the touch ... even I feel uncomfortable to stare or touch it
color looks like raw skin without all the fur

she doesn't feel pain or lick that spot ... still can use the leg to scratch her body normally


can put cream ??? my family using 1 type of cream made-in-china .... no side effect on human skin .... been using it on my dog's another smaller cyst on her back and it shrunk

ya .... young time she already resist cut by family member .... 4 pair of hands also cannot hold her down
because she struggle then my mother accidentally cut 1 until bleed

since then only can bring her to pet shop to cut .... she is cooperative with groomer

lol that one is quick..
my groomer friend very bad.. he always cut my dog nail until blood bleed. got gd got bad

bad is bleed like hell (but can use stop bleed) and ya ur dog will hate u.

good is it will actually shorten you dog nail bit by bit, the quick will grow together as the nail getting longer, in order to stop that u had to cut abit of quick to let it bleed (just like those ppl who always bite the hand nail..it actually shorten their quick too)

Any ideas to stop puppy from eating her own poop?
Any she spins when she's excited from seeing food. Is that normal?

Spend more time, discourage at once if u see it happening. Most of the time when dogs eat their own poo is because of boredom. Although its possible that they are not getting enough nutrients from their regular diet however most commercial diets are balanced and complete so it should not be the cause. Add fiber to diet to see if it helps.

I dun think your friend is doing it right, nail cutting if done right should not cause them to bleed. This is a good picture of nail cutting

Notice the paw pad is almost parallel to the nail

You can try but as harky suggested the dog may lick it off. If it isnt bothering her and its not affecting her quality of life I'd say leave it

If we don't see it in time, then it's gone. Sigh. How do we add fiber? Add vegs?

she is hungry and/or no given enough nutrients. need to improve its diet

sometime when you let your dog go for walk, she might eat other dogs' poop, when it is smelling already, faster carry it away

also, she might want to bite something, give her something to bite on.

Prob have to feed a bit more. She only eats her own. I got another dog and she doesn't touch the other's dog

Vaccination is important for puppies and they should recieve a booster injection 12 months after the last puppy vaccination. After that, its up to you. Although most clinic recommend once a year vaccination, AAHA recommends that the vaccination be done once every 3 years to prevent over vaccination.

For me, I think its best to speak with your vet to work out what is best. Vaccines these days tend to have the kennel cough component added in, those will require yearly booster (like your flu vaccine).

Try building a routine into their lifestyle, boredom makes them eat poo as well. Spend more time and get some variety of toys to see if it helps

Check see if she got problems with digestion? Like any undigested food in the poo.
