ok I tired the boston board and they had no idea.so your turn.
any thoughts on cj's new problem
Yesterday he came in and there was blood over his good eye.I figured it maybe the Elizabethan collar rubbing the wrong way. So I take it off clean it up put some triple antibiotic on it. Then I realize he also has it on the bottom of his face ,on his nose and in the folds of his face by his good eye. Could it be a rash from the meds, he is clavamox and previcox and gena something drops. Im taking him to the vet tomorrow. attached is a pic of it http://i66.photobucket.com/albums/h2...dog/cjeye2.jpg his pic before petsmart fucked my baby up http://i66.photobucket.com/albums/h2...cjjammiesw.jpg |
well, that doesn't look good
|
maybe he got into fight?

So it is an infection? Not a chance that he is rubbing it on something accidentally?
|
why dont you take him to a vet?
|
Almost looks like a alergic reaction to something
|
There's a 24/7 vet on 41 in Cobb County. Give them a call. If it's something that needs to be treated ASAP, take him in. You might be able to email the picture.
|
Nice costume:D
|
Could he have eaten something in your yard? Isn't there some kind of frog or something that dogs can eat that can make them really sick? I thought I read about it on the ASPCA website once...

Im no vet but if thats a reaction to meds stop using them and get him to a 24 hour vet immediately. Poor little bugger looks like he's in a bad way.

Wow my pup had that too, the vet said it was a type of mange (sp) and treated it with a low dose steroid and antibiotics, he could have picked up an infection and tore him self up scratching it, they won't stop even when they cut themselves up. So take him to a GOOD vet, fuck petsmart they have no clue except how to make the bill huge, Good luck and hit me on ICQ if I can help...

Funny, but my brother recently had an allergic reaction to meds. It caused his blood platelet level to drop to almost nothing, he suddenly broke out in open, bleeding sores and he started to bleed from his eyes and mouth. Thought he was going to die.
I guess his blood could no longer clot so that is why all these sores were opening up. If he would have taken a good blow to the head he would have bled to death internally. Had to have multiple platelet transfusions and they also put him on some sort of steroid after he got out of the hospital. Anyways, just thought I would mention that since there's a very good chance your dog is having an allergic reaction to meds. |

I suspect it is a fungus of some sort.
Think Athlete's Foot as a reference. Probably annoying as hell to him, but not particularly dangerous. Look forward to hearing the vet's answer, though I am sure he will be just fine. |
Awwww pooor doogy!! I laughed when you wrote he has to be watched because he eats shit. Dont you just fucking hate that!!! I am sure my dog thinks cat poo is a delicacy!
Anyways that looks like a reaction to either the meds or something he is eating. In my humble opinion anyways. Also is that glaucoma I see ? Hope he is ok Tony and keep us posted :) |
Well got back from the doc, its a autoimmune problem so he is now on zeniquin
atopica and clavamox.He said his eye is probably as good as its going to be, so no more pain pills for him but watch him. Its like the $100 a week at the vet club lately. lol |
Sorry to hear it Tony.
Is the medicine going to be a permanent thing, ongoing? Sad. |
That is one fucking ugly rat..

it looks like either an allergic reaction or possibly demodex. Pets can get demodectic mange any time their immune system is weakened, so might want to check for that also.
Also I would stear clear of Petsmart for vets. I've rarely heard good reviews, more horror stories for sure. |

Have you changed laundry detergent or cleaning products around the house?? Anything like that can cause that.

update had to take him back to the vet, the vet made a mistake its red mange.His immune system is very fucked up. The way he eats and bounces around you would never knowit. So we have to see the doctor in two weeks, we got new drugs and have to clean his wounds twice a day. This is getting very stressful.
|
Maybe Dirty Franck did something with it, like he did to Juicy's dog?
|
CJ update :
Its been tough but getting better. It's been the week from hell, he would be up all night. So Im got about 4 hrs a night. Meds three different times a day and cleaning wounds twice a day. The mange is a evil thing, skin just kept breaking bleeding.He really looked like he had been set on fire(see pic).Today its finally starting to heal so its paying off. http://i66.photobucket.com/albums/h2...781574jpeg.jpg |
Damn..poor lil bugger..must be very stressful..hope he gets better soon
|
tony is being a very good daddy and taking care of his little guy very well.
its sweet to watch. |
