Bonnie’s has a slight limp that just won’t go away ![]() ![]() Man I really hope it heals up. She loves to run and play so much, I’d hate to see her restricted to slow walks and the like

Sorry to hear that. Did the vet do some orthopedic tests?

You could get an x-ray if you really want to find out probably. I assume you are worried about an osteosarcoma. Do you like in an area that gets snow and ice?

Yeah will probably do that next, although the limp seems more like stiffness than lameness - it usually is worst in the morning or the start of a walk and is basically gone after a few minutes. I don’t *think* that seems consistent with osteosarcoma but you never know i guess E: I live in ireland so just lots and lots of rain

I caught this dummy eating a dead bunny a few days ago and now she can’t poo poo. Took her to the e- vet yesterday because I was concerned she was blocked, which fortunately doesn’t appear to be the case based on the rads. Waiting for it to run its course and in the meantime getting woken up every 90 minutes so she can go outside and fart a lot. Dogs are gross yo. ![]()

I got Abby one of those Himalayan brand chew sticks but it seems to be too tough for her. Is there a way to soften those up?

Usually boiling them for 10 minutes will do the trick

Sparty does the same thing sometimes. Anything on the couch must be scraped off to maximize space for his ridiculous legs. Then he gets cold because there's nothing warm to cuddle against, and whines like it's our fault

Thankfully, all my dog does when he's cold is tuck his nose into his limbs, or bury his snoot into the space (or lack thereof) between my back and the couch.![]() Legit Businessman fucked around with this message at 07:48 on Sep 5, 2022 |

I was at some greyhound event, I should have let Abby poop before we left, so she had a nice surprise in the car for me. Luckily the drive home was only 15 minutes, but I had to spend the whole time with the smell

Bonnie has an accident overnight maybe once a fortnight or so. We changed the rug in our living room, thinking maybe the old one had impossible-to-shift residue that was causing her to think of it as a good pee spot, but she’s peed on the new rug too. Things I’ve tried: waking her up earlier for walks, letting her out later and later for her last pee, taking her progressively longer walks at night. I always thought that you should never ever remove a dog’s water bowl, even just overnight, but loads of guides online say this is a pretty standard thing to do to eliminate accidents? It feels like a bad solution to me.

Sparty was having lots of accidents, even when we tried to let him out often, and drinking water constantly. Some things we've done to help: Changed his food to be easier on his kidneys Gave him probiotics powder to help digestion Took water away overnight (making sure he got to drink and got let out before then) Gave him medicine the vet recommended for imcontinence Things have mostly gotten better, though he still wakes us up early sometimes, and we've started having water free all the time again. Maybe check with the vet and see if anything is up? Sparty's blood protein was high indicating kidney function issues I think.

My vet said that Abby drinks too much water because her brain is essentially getting confused as she gets older. I have to control how much is available. I only have a little in the bowl when I'm at work, and take it away after her last urination of the day. I keep a barrier up when I'm sleeping so she can't get out in the middle of the night to pee on the floor in case she feels the need. Every so often I get woken up by her in the middle of the night and take her out. She will never go in the bedroom.

yeah our problem is Bonnie sleeps downstairs and won’t bark or anything to let us know she wants out (she almost never barks so idk how I would even begin to train her to do that). if she slept in our room it wouldn’t be a problem but it would probably raise a bunch of other ones!

That kind of surprises me because I always thought greyhounds wanted to sleep next to their owners

Have you tried something like this: https://www.rover.com/blog/bell-training-dogs-really-works-heres/ We lucked out with Gello, she'll stand by the stairs and whine if she needs to be let out during the night. I agree with DarkHorse about taking her to the vet to see if there isn't an underlying issue.
