I have a 11 year old beagle/mut mix! He’s always been in good health other than being a little overweight. He’s recently had some type of “tumor” pop up on his ear and tongue! The one on his ear is very red and seems to be warm. Now–the heat could be because his ears are heavy! He had some tumors removed off of his chest when he was younger and they came back non-cancerous. My dad says they look alot like warts to him. The one on his tongue is flat–a little raised–and isn’t really red or anything. However, I’ve noticed him licking alot as if it were bothering him. His ears looks bad. Anyone had to deal with this?
He’s the love of my life–and I’m truely worried.

(see my previous question for more info)… I posted a question earlier today regarding peoples opinions on karma, as I’m having a pretty bad time of it lately with depression and also some physical health problems.
Now for the crazy part! – I mentioned that the family pets have been quite ill and I received an answer that the pets may be passing their illnesses onto myself via their saliva!!! The dog has a serious prostate problem (I’m pretty sure as a female, I don’t actually have one of those!)
Anyone else heard anything so daft? Or had equally daft answers to their questions?

Is it worth it? What company do you use and can you tell me about how much it is monthly? Are the co-pays reasonable?
Our dog Maggie has had a few health problems, and may have ongoing skin problems. We just spent a lot on Mange medicines, for the Derma-something Mange. And she has serious anxiety issues…she’s not an inexpensive dog! I’m wondering if doggy insurance is the way to go!
Thanks, I appreciate all the help and advice I get in this section!

My daughter was refused entry to our local supermarket with her puppy, which was in a secure dog carrier bag, citing health & safety reasons ! When I purchased the bag, I was advised that it met all environmental, health & safety requirements and she could use it to take her puppy to shopping malls, supermarkets etc. Up until now, we have had no problems. Has anyone else had a similar problem, or knowledge of the legislation, as the dog is not freely roaming about. Staff couldn’t tell me what health & safety rules were being broken, but they still refused her admission. Thanks.

I’d like to know more about the breed. They are the most adorable little dogs I have ever seen! Are they really as intelligent as they are purported to be? Any health problems I should be aware of? How costly are they? Where did you get yours?
