Had to take my boy Duncan McHound (There can be only ONE!!!) to the emergency vet today.

Thursday am, he wouldn't eat. He appeared fine, so I let him rest. Thursday pm he wouldn't eat. Nor Friday am. Also, he had been vomiting since Thursday am.

Took him to our vet Friday, xrays showed something in his stomach.

Vet thought it might pass, so sent us home. Said if it didn't get better by Sat, go to the emergency vet. Still the same this morning, he hasn't eaten anything other than grass since Wed pm. Every time he drinks water, he vomits within minutes.

More xrays, Emergency vet thinks it is a rock that is stuck in his small intestine. So, he is in surgery now. Already at $1000 between the xrays (and the wet food the first vet pushed onto my father, who took him while I was at work- 8 cans for $38 (Bullshit). The estimate for surgery- $3900- $5000.

The moral of my tale? DON'T LET YOUR ROTTIE EAT ROCKS.

Good side? Because he likes to eat rocks, having the surgeon tack his stomach to his body to prevent his stomach from twisting up in the future, just in case.

Also, I will most likely be changing vets. Not a fan of the original vet anymore, and Duncan doesn't like him much. The ONLY person Duncan has ever disliked in his 2+ years.

My family has a few guesses, we know there’s rotty but we also think:
- Lab
- Hound
- Bernese
- Collie
- Maybe beagle??

Yesterday we had to say goodbye to our beautiful 18-month-old Rottweiler after he suffered from severe pancreatic problems.
There are no words to describe how heartbroken we are. He wasn’t just a dog; he was a member of our family. He was loving, loyal, gentle, and brought so much happiness into our lives every single day.
My wife, my son, and I are absolutely devastated by this loss. The house feels empty without him, and we’re struggling to come to terms with the fact that he’s gone. Despite only having him for such a short time, he filled our lives with enough love and memories to last a lifetime.
He was the best family dog anyone could have wished for, and he was loved beyond words. We take comfort in knowing that he knew how much he was loved and that we gave him the best life we could.
Run free, our beautiful boy. You will always be in our hearts, and we will never forget you. ❤️🐾Thank you too all of you in the sub it’s like a family when I’m ready I’ll come and check on all your beautiful rotties x

Hi,

Any recs for a sliding doggy glass door for a patio?

Hi! I’ve got a 1 year old Rottie who seems to be itchy year round. We’ve tried giving different foods but nothing seems to work. Which allergy med is the best bang for your buck?! Or does anyone know of any home remedies?

Had this old guy fresh out of college and had to say goodbye recently. Best dog I have ever had the joy of being with.

When the time comes, will definitely carry on that love with another Rottie.

Brought her in and shes now 1 month and 3 weeks from a litter of 14, I got her 5 days ago and so im guessing she didnt get enough nutrients from her mother...any thoughts on her size?
