ARC's MADE- YA LOOK Moxie     Barked: Tue May 21, '13 7:20pm PST  I see it a lot in trials. My Beauceron is 3, yes 3! And I just started trialing her. She still isnt ready. *SIGH* Not that she doesnt love it, she just is not ready to trial yet. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Dog Health > loss of pigment

ARC's MADE- YA LOOK Moxie     Barked: Wed Feb 27, '13 8:07am PST  Sheltie skin disease... hmm... I have never heard of it. And thank you for the info! Do you have any links on it? When I quickly googled it, I just came up with DM in Shelties but I will keep looking. The vet is still saying "Vitiligo", and that her eyes/nose will be the next to loose pigment. But they say there is no treatment because it is just a "cosmetic" issue. But I can't help but think if it is autoimmune related that it can't just be cosmetic. Thanks again for the help! my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Dog Health > loss of pigment

ARC's MADE- YA LOOK Moxie     Barked: Tue Jan 8, '13 11:57am PST  This isn't just a winter thing. It is cold here now. It began a year and a half ago when the lips & gums started loosing pigment. She has always been on Orijen or Acana, including the other 2 dogs in the house. Moxie is the only one with any pigment loss. It is pretty dramatic on her feet and gums. Extremely noticable because everything was black. Last year we had almost no winter at all, with only 4" of snowfall. I wouldnt think the cold could do it... perhaps Vitamin D because she doesnt spend hardly any time outside in the winter. I just wonder if I should be more concerned about this. She has regular white fur where scars have occured, but none elsewhere. We have a vet appointment next Tuesday and will have it checked out again then (different vet) and hopefully get some answers. Im just wondering there must be something going on with her and I'd like to fix it if at all possible. Could LYME cause something like this? She did have lyme, but was treated. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Dog Health > loss of pigment

ARC's MADE- YA LOOK Moxie     Barked: Mon Jan 7, '13 8:51am PST  Any other dogs out there experience this? It started on my mouth and gums. They were pretty and black when I was young until about 2 years old. Now I have loads of white spots on the pads of my feet. Total loss of pigment in cirlce-ish spots. My fur is still all black and tan like a pretty Beauceron should be... but my human is getting worried. The vets say Vitiligo, but give us no course of action for treatment or cause. When I look it up online I get the same thing. Mystery disease, possibly autoimmune related... common in Rotts. HMM... Anyone else know anything? Have a similar problem? Know any answers?! Thanks pups! my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

ARC's MADE- YA LOOK Moxie     Barked: Fri Feb 3, '12 4:07pm PST  My black lips are turning pink. The vet thinks this is what I have. He wants to biopsy it. Do any of you other pups out there have this? Or maybe your paw-rents have experience with this condition in other dogs? Googled it, and it can be genetic? Im looking for more info... Momma's worried! my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Dog Health > Is it cancer?! Vet appt tomorrow

ARC's MADE- YA LOOK Moxie     Barked: Mon Jan 16, '12 5:26pm PST  thanks for the info everyone. this is slightly raised very dark black on a very (suddenly) white tongue. I've read that rott's and dobes sometimes have a disease where they loose the pigment in the lips called Vitiligo. So I am assuming Beauceron's can have the same thing. She will be 2 in February. Beaucerons don't typically have any pigment on the tongue. I just see all these things suddenly happening at once, with the weight loss and things and it has me worried. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Dog Health > Is it cancer?! Vet appt tomorrow

ARC's MADE- YA LOOK Moxie     Barked: Mon Jan 16, '12 6:55am PST  Thanks! We've never had to deal with cancer before but it is really worrying me. Seeing all these "signs" and just messing with my head. Praying for a good outcome tomorrow with the vet. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Dog Health > Is it cancer?! Vet appt tomorrow

ARC's MADE- YA LOOK Moxie     Barked: Mon Jan 16, '12 6:46am PST  Ok, so yesterday Moxie was chewing an antler bone and I noticed her tongue was VERY white. Uncanny white. I've been keeping an eye on her mouth lately because I swear her once black gums have turned pink. My husband says they've always been that way, I swear he is wrong. Anyway, I looked in her mouth and there is a black spot on the back of her tongue that has NEVER been there. I called the vet first thing this morning and got an appt for tomorrow morning. She has been dropping weight, which I thought was because of the winter, and I've been giving her more food to try to get the pounds back on. I can't help but worry and think the worst. Somewhere I remember reading something about sudden black spots appearing on the tongue/mouth/eyelids that were not there before is an indicator for cancer. Has anyone heard this before? Moxie is not yet 2 year old, and I am freaking out a little bit. Ok a lot. Im not sure I can take this stress. Poor Moxie. Do you have ideas?? We will know more tomorrow for sure, but I'd love to hear ideas. She is acting fine, eating and drinking, playing, though her attitude has changed slightly, a little rougher with the other dogs in play... but who knows. Im hoping for the best but fearing the worst! my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

ARC's MADE- YA LOOK Moxie     Barked: Wed Jan 4, '12 6:57am PST  Acana doesn't have the largest size kibble I've seen, and I do believe that they may have different sizes in the different flavors/types. I just put mine on the Ranchlands and it is larger than the others I do believe, but I cannot be certain. I have a pom/sheltie (grown at 18lbs) who has been on it since day one here. But we usually had them on the Grasslands. He had no problem eating it though. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]
