Hi everyone, I have a 1.9 year old lab who is perfect in my eyes. He has hip dysplasia and was recommended from my vet that neutering him is not suitable because he might gain weight which is not ideal for dog’s with hip dysplasia. So i need a second opinion, any help is appreciated. Thanks

Yes donot get him neutered after the surgery he may gain weight and that worsens the hip dysplasia condition Get a x ray done to know the level of hip dysplasia and get him treated for the same

The joint supplement or does he need physiotherapy or surgery all depends on the level of hip dysplasia If it's in the initial stages the joint supplement and physiotherapy will help If it's the last stage surgery is preferred

I think that I see something deeper, more infinite, more eternal than the ocean in the expression of the eyes of a little baby when it wakes in the morning And then my soul saw you and it kind of went “Oh, there you are. I’ve been looking for you.

Hello. My female cat got spayed 2 days ago. When we got her home, she peed on herself. She badly wants to clean that part so she is insisting to remove neck cone that was put by the surgeon. She hasn’t eaten any food since she got spayed. The neck cone is making her feel uncomfortable I guess. We did try to remove the neck cone and force feed her, yet she spit the food all out. Also she stayed away from us and started licking her body where she had peed. Also she started to lick the wound region, tried to take of the bandage that was attached to stitched region. So we put back the neck cone again. We really don’t know what to do
