persephone Posted October 6, 2007 Share Posted October 6, 2007 Hi...guess you need to know WHY it is happening first? Then find something to help whatever is the cause? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cordelia Posted October 6, 2007 Share Posted October 6, 2007 Yep. I'd want know why she is retaining fluid before advising anything.. not normal for a dog to do that at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRT RESCUE Posted October 6, 2007 Author Share Posted October 6, 2007 It's when she is coming into season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golden Rules Posted October 6, 2007 Share Posted October 6, 2007 Try some apple cider vinegar with a little honey in it (about a teaspoon of each) - mixed into water or preferably food - daily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRT RESCUE Posted October 6, 2007 Author Share Posted October 6, 2007 Would that measurement be for all dogs, as this is for a Old English Sheepdog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golden Rules Posted October 6, 2007 Share Posted October 6, 2007 Would that measurement be for all dogs, as this is for a Old English Sheepdog. It's trial and error really, it's what I used for myself every morning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wynnlake Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 I just did a search for bitches holding fluid and came across this, so sorry if i confuse people by bringing this back up My young bitch is currently having her first season, she is retaining fluid i guess, she looks quite bloated and fat. I have never had a bitch do this before and was wondering if its normal. She is fine in every other way except she is fat, not down low, but more around the stomach area. She is eating fine, she doesnt have a temp, she isnt depressed, nothing else if wrong. I guess i just want to know if dogs like us get bloated around 'that time' of their cycle or if i should be off to the vet with her? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
