raw and missing fur between toes

I just noticed this morning that Lucy is missing fur between two of her toes. It is obviously irritated and she keeps biting at it. I put a sock on it so she would quit licking it. I feel so bad…Continue

We will be moving in a couple of weeks and we are still undecided about how we will keep Lucy confined to the yard. We are leaning towards putting in a dog pen but the question is....do we try to…Continue

HiI was just curious when your doodle stopped growing. Lucy is only 7/12 months and already 47 lbs. She has really long legs. Her parents were 55 and 60 lbs. Continue

Lucy just ate her way through a small rubbermaid container with chocolate covered nuts. She probably ate about 10 pecans covered with white/dark chocolate. I've know chocolate can be fatal for…Continue

Dawn replied to Dawn's discussion Lucy goes crazy when neighbor kids are outside in the group Training - Experiences, Challenges, and Mindsets"Thanks so much for the suggestion. She did go through some obedience training but unfortunately we didn't do a good job keeping up with it once we moved to this house. I loved the idea of her having room too run but that is proving…"
Jane, Guinness and Murphy replied to Dawn's discussion Lucy goes crazy when neighbor kids are outside in the group Training - Experiences, Challenges, and Mindsets"Well I really think if Lucy isn't "off leash trained" it's probably a good thing that she's not able to run loose between the two houses. There are so many things that can happen to a dog in this situation....I say…"
"maybe when she starts getting crazy, you could try working on some obedience training with her and get her to focus on you. If is she is watching you and listening to you she won't be able to focus the kids."

Lucy goes crazy when neighbor kids are outside
We live at the end of a cul de sac where there is only one other house across from us. We always let Lucy run between the two houses because she plays with their dog. Recently she has been digging in their yard so I can no longer let her out unless someone is with her. The minute the neighbor kids go outside to play Lucy starts going crazy at the door because she wants to join them. Sometimes she will bark and whine for 2 hours. I feel so bad because I know she just wants to join the…See More

Jill & Woody replied to Dawn's discussion won't eat her food suddenly in the group The Food Group"Dawn, any updates on how she is doing? Were you able to cook food, or go out and get more? I would take the advice of others, and read the recommended food list here on DK!"
Star and Goldie replied to Dawn's discussion won't eat her food suddenly in the group The Food Group"Hi Dawn, I'm sorry to hear that she's not eating. How long has she eaten Science Diet? If you have to get a new bag of food I would suggest checking out the recommended foods list here. It is really helpful information and Science…"
Karen & Jackdoodle replied to Dawn's discussion won't eat her food suddenly in the group The Food Group"Well, she could certainly have gotten sick from mouse droppings in her food or something related to the mouse. She could also be vomiting from having an empty stomach, it's common for some dogs. As for Science Diet, she's a smart dog to…"

won't eat her food suddenly
I was wondering if anyone elses dog suddenly stopped eating a certain brand of food. We were feeding her science diet and now she refuses to eat it. We tried a different brand and she was OK with it. A mouse found it's way into the bag of new food and so I through it out. I tried giving her the science diet until I can get to the store tomorrow but she won't touch it. I feel bad because I know she must be hungry but it's all I have for tonight. I'm so mad at myself for not putting the…See More

Rachel and Ollie replied to Dawn's discussion raw and missing fur between toes"I just got through with this with Ollie. The vet thinks it must have been a bug bite or something since for him it was only on one toe. They soaked his foot in epson salt and told me to do that one or two more times. She gave me cream to put on it…"
Karen & Jackdoodle replied to Dawn's discussion raw and missing fur between toes"I'd be upset that the vet didn't notice it. That's a symptom of seasonal allergies, and if so, she's biting and licking it because it's itching intensely. It sounds like there is already a moist dermatitis (hot spots) there…"

I just noticed this morning that Lucy is missing fur between two of her toes. It is obviously irritated and she keeps biting at it. I put a sock on it so she would quit licking it. I feel so bad because we just got back from the vet for a rash on her belly and we didn't notice it then. DawnSee More

Maryann,Roo and Tigger replied to Dawn's discussion dog pen"My ideal solution is to have a fenced in area accessible by a dog door in the laundry room or mud room or enclosed porch. This keeps the cost of fencing down and I use the area on the inside ot the dog door as the "dog house". …"

Laura Richard said… Hi there,
Lucy is adorable!! She does look a lot like Sadie; just with curlier hair!
They are close to the same age too !! Is Lucy your first doodle?
I read your discussion on what she does all day; Sadie has been put in a crate since her first night...and now she finally likes it! She would cry a lot at first, but now I find she goes in there to sleep all by herself..we are just careful that we don't leave her in for long periods of time. Hope you are enjoying the site as much as me!
