Bulldog fold infection medication

What is Bulldog fold infection ?

This infection can be found as tail-fold pyoderma in bulldogs (screw tails). The usual signs are irritation and inflammation of the skin, causing discomfort to the dog and “scooting.” The moist skin becomes infected and gives off a foul odor. Relief is obtained by bathing the skin with a surgical soap, being sure to thoroughly clean the skin under the tail. This may entail using your finger with a washcloth saturated in the surgical soap and inserting behind the screws of the tail to the skin underneath. It may be painful to the dog, so care must be taken. Once cleaned, rinse thoroughly to remove all soap residue and dry as much as possible. An antibiotic steroid cream (such as Panalog Cream) may then be applied to the affected area. Another method of treatment is to use a powder (McKillips, Gold Bond, etc.) and, holding the tail out of the way as much as possible, “poor’ the powder in so it reaches the skin under the tail. These treatments should be repeated on a continuing basis, as needed.

Question about hissing cat

May 29, 2007 by pet-admin · Leave a Comment 

cat-hissing.jpgcat-hissing.jpgcat-hissing.jpg

I am hoping you can help me.  I get Dr Jon’s daily e-newsletter, and his advice and insight has been very helpful in the past.

Background

About a week ago, our cat (Jazz) was sitting in the window.  My husband heard growling and hissing, so he runs to the window.  A wild cat had jumped up at the window, and was stuck on the screen (outside the house).  Jazz was on the floor inside the house with wild eyes and a poofed out tail.

Ever since that night, Jazz has been hissing at my husband.  In the morning, Jazz goes through her typical routine, rubbing on his chair as he eats breakfast.  In the past, my husband then pets Jazz for a few minutes.  Now, when he reached down to pet Jazz, she hisses at him.

The hissing also seems to come out of no-where.  Today he was walking through the kitchen.  Jazz was lying on the kitchen floor.  He said ‘what’s up kitty cat’…then Jazz hissed and ran into the basement.  Odd!

We have never seen any aggressive behavior in her ever.  From time to time, Jazz has exhibited aggressive play behavior – but never hissed.  In the 4 years Jazz has been a part of our house, I think I’ve only heard the hissing maybe 1 or 2 times (and that was toward a raccoon or groundhog).

Why would she be hissing at my husband?  What can we do to stop this behavior?    I know hissing is a sign of aggression, and I don’t want it to escalate into something worse.

Thank you,

Kathy Friend

Briard Temperament

Briard is a very loyal and protective breed. The Briard is also called a heart wrapped in fur. Once they have bonded to their family members, they will be very protective. They can be aloof with strangers - new introductions should be on the dog’s terms, including furniture or the addition of a new baby into the household. They require showing that the new intrusion is friendly and free of conflict. They must be taught that it is a good thing and not harmful. They have proven to be a very good breed to have around children of all ages.

Borzoi

Borzoi Life expectancy is 10 to 12 years, females usually living longer than males, Exceptional individuals have lived to be more than 16 years of age. Dogs that are physically fit and vigorous in their youth through middle age are more vigorous and healthy as elderly dogs, all other factors being equal. In most parts of the world, bloat and road accidents seem to be the most frequent causes of premature death.

Like its native relative the Hortaya Borzaya, the Borzoi is basically a very sound breed. OCD, hip and elbow dysplasia have remained almost unknown, as were congenital eye and heart diseases before the 1970s. However, in some countries modern breeding practices have unfortunately introduced a few problems.

Boston terriers health

Boston Terrier health

Here’s several health issues are of concern in the Boston Terrier: cataracts (both juvenile and adult type), cherry eye, luxating patellas, deafness, heart murmur, and allergies. Curvature of the back, called roaching, might be caused by patella problems with the rear legs, which in turn causes the dog to lean forward onto the forelegs. 

This might also just be a structural fault with little consequence to the dog. Many Bostons cannot tolerate excessive heat and also extremely cold weather, due to the shortened muzzle, so hot or cold weather combined with demanding exercise can bring harm to a Boston Terrier.
