Feeding after pancreatitis is better Thanks for your kind messages. It was so hard having her away at the pet hospital last night. She is going to have to stay until at least Thursday, but we did go and visit today. (3 times). She already has her energy back and there was a note on her door...

pancreatitis too I took Maizie to the vet this am for the same symptoms as Archie and the vet did some xrays and bloodwork. The bloodwork can back this afternoon with pancreatitis also, so she is in the hospital tonight. I'm glad I read this thread this morning and pushed the vet to get us...

Experiencing the same symptoms as Archie Maizie (9 yo) is having almost exactly the same symptoms as Archie. She started throwing up first thing yesterday morning. I held her food and she seemed ok by last night so I fed her some boiled chicken and rice. She started throwing up at 2 am and...

We have had her on glucosomine for about a month, I am going to stop to today and pick up a natural anti-inflam to give her for now. She is tolerating the pain well, she only limps after the dog park and if you didn't know her, you would think she is fine. So, no more dog park for awhile. I...

We just got home from taking our Maizie (7 yo) to the vet. She has been limping on and off for the past couple of weeks and we started to notice our boy, Jack, is much more active than she has been lately despite he is probably about 10. Long story short, the vet took x-rays and the...

We took Maizie to the dog park today and I think she overdid it a bit. She's limping a little bit and can't jump up on her couch like she usually does. I'm keeping an eye on her and I've given her an enteric coated baby aspirin. I'm going to call the vet, but should I give her a day to recover...

My Maizie believes that she needs to be 'dried' with the hairdryer whether she is wet or not. We live in AZ so it is not a matter of being cold very often, either. Every morning she will sit at my side and whine if I don't take a few minutes to 'dry' her while I'm getting ready for work...

Traveling with boxers We were lucky enough to be able to take a 5 week vacation over the summer and drove from Arizona to Pennsylvania with a few very out of the way stops. Total time in the car was at least 40 hours each way. Their longest trip was probably about 4 hours prior to the trip so...

We just switched to AzMira and are having good results and the dogs actually look forward to eating (which was never the case before.) We were feeding Eukanuba (which we thought was a good food). Since it seems to be a little confusing to determine whats is good kibble, just wondering if...

We just started out 2 boxers on AzMira--they love it and it has cleared up the colitis we were battling for almost 2 months within a couple of days. The place where we bought the food suggested adding steamed veggies to their food if they were acting like they are hungry after they eat. (if...

We took our boxers on a trip from Arizona to Pennsylvania, roughly 35 hours by car. We stopped every 2-3 hours to stretch and walk the dogs. We tried to keep them on their regular feeding schedule and made sure they had water all the time. We used a portable water dish. They did very well...

We moved from a house to what was supposed to be a temporary apartment 3 months ago. Now it looks like we're going to be in the apartment for at least 5 more months due to construction delay on our condo. Since we've moved, we've been to the vet twice for stress colitis (one time for Maizie, 6...
