I went through a somewhat similar situation with my 7 year old lab last fall. I moved to Colorado and had my mom send her out here after I got settled with work. My dog has only had diarrhea once...
My Lulu is turning 8 this fall, although she still acts the same as she did at 2. She's not gray around the face much yet and she's still got a lot of pep in her step. I want to start being more...
Okay, I need some more help/suggestions. We are going on a week and have had minimal-no progress. I have tried putting paper towels with both her urine and our old neighbors' dogs urine on there-she...
HAHAHAHA I love these comments about collecting dog urine. The things we do as lab parents 😉
I've read mixed things about the potty stake. I might try the soaking stakes in her urine thing....
I'm hoping it'll happen eventually. As crazy as it sounds, I put rocks and mulch that she peed on during our walk in the yard tonight, as well as some of her poop. She sniffed, but wouldn't go. It...
I did have my neighbor from my old apartment bring her dog over last night to try that. We normally walked the dogs together and they were constantly trying to pee over each other. Oliver marked up...
Have you had any luck with anything?! I'm having the same problem with my lab, except that she's been in both apartments and houses with yards before and never had this problem. My girl is nearly 8...
Help! I've finally hit a brick wall that I never thought I'd have to deal with. My nearly 8 year old lab and I recently moved across town. Our new place has a (slightly overgrown) backyard with a ton...
I'm researching some locations to put my 7 year old Lab in Doggie Daycare to wear out some of her endless energy while I'm at work and to try to help some with her separation anxiety when I'm gone....
My lab has started drooling on one side within the last hour. This has started since I've been home, but she hasn't done anything outside of her normal routine. I checked all in her mouth and saw no...
Thanks for the advice, everyone! I did give my vet a call and they said it could just be from the cold, it could be arthritis, or it could just be from her playing too hard recently and needing some...
My yellow lab is 7 going on 8. She's never had any kind of mobility issues, but lately I've noticed that she will occasionally gnaw on her wrist/ankle joint on her front left leg. She never does it...
Okay, I'll try starting her on the pumpkin tomorrow and if I don't see any improvement, I'll give the call a vet Monday. Does it come in a can? And how much/how often do you recommend? She's 61lbs.
See, my first thought was Giardia, because my moms golden had it once. The vet did a fecal and said it came back clean. I also hadn't heard of anyone's dog eating snow and getting sick, but this is...
My 7 year old lab, Lulu, had her first experience with snow early last week and spent the next day having uncontrollable diarrhea (like, couldn't hold it, up every hour through the night bad). Took...
My 7 year old lab just made the trip from Georgia to Colorado to our new home. The trip was a little stressful, as I expected it would be, since she's already got some anxiety issues. Due to her...
Thanks for all of the advice!
I already have planned to have a talk with our vet before we leave, just to get his opinion on best traveling with her, but I also wanted to get some first-hand...
I'm from Savannah and it's SO dog friendly, which is awesome! If you're looking to come down south again, I've heard Charleston is quite dog-friendly as well. Might have to do some research in terms...
Hey, fellow lab parents!
I have recently made the exciting decision of accepting a job in Colorado, about 1700 miles away from my hometown in Georgia. I am out here in CO currently (with my four...
We have always joked that my yellow lab, Lulu, is an adventurous dreamer because she always seems to be chasing something in her sleep. You know how it goes, little cute yips, the paws twitching...
Just wanted to throw this question out there-have any of you ever flown with your labs? I'm looking at potentially relocating across the country and I know driving might not be realistic (one of my...
Thanks for clearing that up! I understand now. She has a crate, but she doesn't stay in it alone when I'm not home. She has full run of th house. I try to encourage her to go lay in her crate and...
We've done an hour long walk early in the mornings and that seems
to have helped! I live about a quarter mile away from my campus, so we go over there and I let her off the leash since there's no...
She's actually not a pup, she'll be 6 next month. She used to bark some, but it was never a nuisance. I know the excessive barking is just because she's not adapted to the new environment yet...
