Hello,
My 11.5 month old female is getting spayed, along with a vulvaplasty, next week and I’m terribly anxious about it. I know the procedure should improve the reoccurring UTIs, but I’m also worried about the impact the spay will have on her growth and the overall healing of the vulvaplasty. Do you have any suggestions to support her recovery?

Happy Halloween 🎃

We got our first bit of snow here today and she’s not happy about it.

Storms all gone, so everyone is happy.
Thought I’d post a pic from my wife, who takes photos for her profession, so here’s my baby again just for no other reason than I can 😁

My girls haven’t been enjoying this weather but at least they are all snuggled up warm. Hope everyone is staying safe. ♥️

for those who have had both, which one do you prefer moving forward and why?

So… my lil cuddle lump 18 months ago…

Hey everyone,

I have a 8.5 year old Bullmastiff. He’s my biggest treasure and It destroys me seeing him struggle walking.

Medically, Rollo, suffered from left hyp dysplasia already at age of 8 months. I broke my savings and at age 1 I got him into complete hyp (left side) replacement surgery in a very good clinic. After some recovery time, although he never ran the same again, we had another wonderfull 7.5 years together.

Last weeks we visited the vet, did x-rays, and the vet can’t tell us for sure what Rollo has. He believes it’s overgrown calcium/bone in the knee but it’s very hard to demonstrate it, which hurts so much that Rollo won’t even step on his left leg (front).

Rollo is atm on supplements, and Gabapentine 300mg, but I see no improvements. Last resort is Librela which i hear does wonders but breaks the leg completely in 1,2 years and I want it to be the absolute last option i apply for him.

Did any Bullmastiff parent encounter this, had a similar experience with their loved one? The vet’s scratch just doesn’t do it for my itch.

Thank you

Hi all,

I need advice on the fit of this muzzle.

Does this seem to fit ok?
I can put my fingers between his jaw and the muzzle without it getting tight. He can eat with it on.

He is dog reactive, so we want to trial a muzzle on walks…. Just in case.

Side note: We walked past a dog in his yard this morning and he didn't flip out. Small wins.

Meet my new bestie, Sadie. She's 9 weeks old and so smart already! She's growing too fast though!!
