Medical Conditions & Diseases / Arthritis at 2 yrs?
« on: August 10, 2006, 12:52:14 pm »
Virgil has been been very stiff and has had trouble getting up for the last few months. I thought it was his hips. However I got him x-rayed and it turned out to be arthritis in his knees and a spot on his spine. The vet thinks it is from an old injury, but he has never been hurt before. She says it could have been a small barely noticible incident. He is so young. I was wondering if this is common and how upset I should be. Does that make sense. The Dr. kinda sounded like Virgil would have been better off having hip dysplasia. Does Anyone have experience with arthritis at this age?

Rottweiler Discussions / Virgi has a new sister

Hello everyone! We adopted a stay puppy we found a month ago. What an absolute doll Lucy lou is. She is so smart and loyal and happy. Virgil loves her to pieces. I don't know alot about rottweilers, but she is impressive. I'm told she is very small for a rottweiller, I don't care, I think she is perfect

I am a little confused,  are these bad people? I have never heard of them. In the video they appear to be very caring. The dogs look happy. What's the deal?

Thanks so much everybody. I think Anakalia is right. I read about that before, but I guess I never put two and two together. How do you clean it out? Does he have to go to the vet? and how often do I clean it out?
LOL My boyfriend left the room saying that is all you!

Mixed Breed Discussion / Virgil stinks!!

All I can say is gross. When he sleeps he reeks of something foul. What could possibly be causing this awful odor? He eats premium dog food, gets plenty of excercise, and a bath every two weeks. I am thinking of switching to an organic dog food. Any suggestions?

All these pictures are so cute I couldn't resist posting some of my own. He is 4 months old in these, but he is actually 1 year old as of yesterday. I have a ton of undeveloped film. One of these days I'll get it done!

I just signed the guest book. I told them they should be ashamed of themselves. My message was the only negative comment on there. I cant believe how many people signed with "cool site" morons!!!!

We live by Mt Tabor Park. Great neighborhood, but we do go to Luesher Farm in Lake Oswego every once in a while. I love it there. Let me know when you go, Virgil would love to play with Jade and Dakota. They are so cute.

Is anyone in the Portland Or area? Virgil has trouble finding dogs his size to wrestle and play with. He is a great dane and staffordshire terrier(?) mix. He loves to push smaller dogs around with his butt!! LOL!!
