r/Doberman

Our 10 year old lady had to go to the vet on Monday due to not being able to stand and drooling a ton. I had to leave work early because my parents needed help lifting her as her hind legs are giving out. We took her to the vet and they ran an x-ray and called me yesterday to inform me that she has pneumonia/fluid in her lungs as well as arthritis in her spine. She also huffs and puffs at times and this has been ongoing. While we were there we had asked about her quality of life as she's been bed ridden and shuddering after 3 grueling hours at the vet and he said as long as she continues to eat or drink she's okay(? He was kind of hard to understand) He would like to do blood tests if she does not improve for her liver and kidneys. I am just devastated right now. I don't kmow what to do. I feel we are nearing the end and I don't know what to do. I hate seeing her like this she is such a lap dog and refuses to let someone stop giving her love. I feel I need to ask again about a quality of life check up. I hate the idea of her struggling and don't want her to deal with unnecessary hurt. My parents told me she sat in the sun in the backyard yesterday and she went to the bathroom and is eating a tiny amount and drinking. She deserves a fighting chance but I can't help but think she's tired..

I just picked her up off someone who was Rehoming her. They say she’s about 17 months and weighs about 45 pounds. I thought they were usually bigger. For reference she’s shorter and smaller than my Siberian husky

Hi! I don't speak English, but I found this post on Facebook and people are asking for help for this little dog.

Is there anyone who can help doxxing the guy behind the account, please?

He's saying he wants to torture the dog on a live stream. I don't usually go on these kinds of pages, but I feel really bad and want to help. If you can find any information, that would be amazing 😭🙏🙏

This is my dobbie, Roxy she’s a very healthy 6yo,
I’m just not sure what to do about her dental health?

Not sure if this should be a vet visit or use one of those skin tag remover. If you’ve experienced this with your Doberman, please let me know. Thank you.

I have a 10 month old female Doberman that has been being in her sleep. She did it occasionally before she was spayed, but it’s happening much more now.

She has a vet appointment this coming week, but I’m just curious if anyone else has had the same happen and if you can provide any insight.

Thanks!

Anybody have this issue with their doberman, Vet recommended a dermatologist but didnt know what it was
