This is a forum on dog care. We cover topics like dog food, exercise, grooming, and all those other things that help dogs to maintain good health. If you're looking for help with injury, illness, or possible disease, please try r/AskVet and call your pet's health care provider.

If your question is about training your dog, please visit our sister subreddit: /r/dogtraining.

The advice here is not a replacement for professional help. If your dogs are ill, please take them to a vet.
