    Inconsistent reaction

    Great advice from @HAH 🤩 I did this with Axel and now Hugo. If it means I stand for awhile and let him cowardly creep up to a weird statue, road sign, tree stump etc, while he slowly checks it out with lots of sniffling then that’s ok, it’s so worth it to watch him work it out on his own...

    Bad couple of nights...

    Those late night wake up calls are hard. Hope Merlin and Poppy are feeling better and you can catch up on some sleep :hug:

    Tick meds and diarrhea

    Sorry for the delay in responding, my brain was just overloaded and it needed a time out 😅 That evening Hugo was super tired but no more poops so I felt he just really needed rest now that he didn't have a sore tummy, so we cuddled lots and lots :hug: Following morning he had a wonderful solid...

    Tick meds and diarrhea

    Despite it being 3am, Hugo thinks it’s super fun. He’s been ripping around with zoomies, asking for breakfast by staring at his bowl (he got some), now jumping all over my bed like a monkey as he can’t sleep in his crate now. And this is where I hesitate about bringing him to the vet 🥲 he’s a...

    Tick meds and diarrhea

    Colitis is what I was kind of thinking also, thank you for sharing your experience! There is no blood, he still had a tiny bit of mucus coming out but nothing like it was yesterday morning. So I’m still undecided if that’s good or bad. It’s 3 am here and I woke up to him smacking his lips so I...

    Tick meds and diarrhea

    Ugh ok I just remembered something. He ran his snout through another dogs diarrhea on a walk the other day….. (nose is glued to the ground 🤦🏼‍♀️ ) I wiped off what I could with leaves but I wonder if he ingested some and now has what ever bug that dog had…

    Tick meds and diarrhea

    Thank you everyone. He had four diarrhea plops while my parents were with him. They smell so.. weird, not like stinky poop. But hardly any mucus lining in them now. I just fed him some soaked kibble with some pumpkin, so I’ll see how that sits. If more diarrhea then I’ll bring him to the...

    Tick meds and diarrhea

    Vet said it’s not common to have diarrhea from the tick meds. (Google tells me otherwise) They said maybe one soft stool but not like what he is experiencing. There’s a lot of white goopy lining coming out, and that’s starting to concern me. He’s still happy and playful but not as much as usual...

    Tick meds and diarrhea

    Oh forgot to add. I asked my friend who worked at a vet and she said that diarrhea unfortunately was common and the vet has to report it to the company. His vet opens soon, so we will see what they suggest and if they think it could be from the tick meds.

    Tick meds and diarrhea

    Thank you @M.F. and @Jennifer for the suggestions. Due to the time difference and not getting replies until I was sleeping 😂 and my vet being closed I choose to follow my gut (I didn’t feel this was an emergency vet worthy phone call yet). I ended up giving him some rice, god what a mess that...

    Tick meds and diarrhea

    Is this a thing? I don’t recall Axel ever reacting to tick meds so I’m not sure if that’s what I’m dealing with or not. Yesterday mid afternoon I gave Hugo his Nexgard tick chew from the vet for his first time. I then got woken up at 530am from Hugo having a very squirty bum, he went multiple...

    Deaf? Eye ulcer.

    Poor Snowie, and you both. It’s so hard to see our dogs unwell and uncomfortable. Really hope the antibiotics and pain meds help asap :hug: :thelambiesarecoming::thelambiesarecoming:

    Deaf? Eye ulcer.

    Oh I’m sorry he’s had a setback :hug: :hug: I wonder if the pain meds have maybe constipated him? Maybe some canned pumpkin or something similar to try and help move things along? Did you manage to speak to your vet yet?

    Animals you are scared of

    Honestly… not my brightest moment 🤦🏼‍♀️ but we think she had very young cubs with her so she just chased us off essentially. There were multiple sightings of her in that area for a few weeks

    Animals you are scared of

    Glad to hear that doing what they advise you to do works!! I was absolutely terrified when I came across one, I panicked and biked away as fast as I could, which I do not advise, that mamma cat was hot in pursuit 😭😂

    Animals you are scared of

    Wasps for me! I will run and scream and cause a whole big scene :nod: Second would be spiders... I had the absolute worst experience a couple of years ago. Long story short there were several egg sacs on the backside of my bed (obviously didn't know they were there) that hatched when I crawled...
