You need a doctor to determine for sure if you are pregnant. There is some failure in home pregnancy tests and you want to be sure unusual bleeding is not a sign of an unhealthy condition.

What are the symptoms and treatment of Ear Mites in Rabbits?

One of the first signs you will often notice is the "bees in the head" motion as your rabbit shakes his ears to try and clear the irritation.

Increased itching and discharge from the ears is another sign.

Something often seen with ear mites is an extremely unpleasant smell coming from the ear of the bunny caused by a buildup of dead matter in the ear, if left this can block the whole ear and lead to serious health problems.

An example can be seen here, not for the squeamish

The best person to diagnose mites is your vet as the symptoms can closely mimic an ear infection.

This is a good reason to take your rabbit to the vets where she will be treated with a course of Ivermectin shots and/or if an infection is present, antibiotics (non penicillin). Do NOT use over the counter remedies for rabbit ear mites.

Symptoms of a dislocated shoulder in a dog?

My dog got his shoulder dislocated last week.

We took him to our vet and they took an x-ray and a very
short time later they knew.

Here are his symptoms prior to the x-ray:.

He was holding one leg up and panting. He seemed in shock
and was trembling. There was no doubt at all that he was
in distress and in extreme pain.

His eyes were droopy and they were full of tears and you can
see a lot of pain in them.

Lifting him into the car was very difficult. The paw that is connected
to the injured shoulder was super sensitive. Had to drive very
slow since he would yelp at every bump in the road no matter how
small.

What are symptoms after dog eats poison?

How This Poison Affects Your Pet: Ethylene glycol has an immediate and a long-term affect on the body. It is rapidly absorbed and metabolized once it has been consumed. Peak blood levels occur within three hours of ingestion. Within thirty minutes after drinking it, your pet will become ataxic or drunken in appearance. This phase continues for up to six hours. Eventually this tipsy behavior subsides and it appears that the problem is over. It is not however, because the ethylene glycol then enters the pet's liver and kidneys where it is oxidized into toxic products that acidify the blood and destroy renal tubular cells in the pet's kidneys. When the kidneys are damaged, they loose their ability to cleanse the body of waste. The transformation of antifreeze leads from glycoaldehyde to glyoxcylic acid, formic acid, and oxalate. It is the glycolic acid and oxalate that is most responsible for kidney damage and resulting uremia. These compounds also seriously damage the central nervous system. There is no treatment that will reverse this damage. It can be so severe as to be fatal in a matter of a few days Symptoms In Your Pet:

Clinical signs depend on how long it has been since the pet drank the antifreeze as well as the amount they drank. Early symptoms are much like alcohol intoxication. Dogs and cats may vomit due to the irritating effects of ethylene glycol on the stomach. They drink and urinate excessively and may be depressed and wobbly. The increased thirst is due to stimulation of the thirst centers of the brain. Pets may seem on the road to recovery twelve hours later as the ethylene glycol is metabolized by the liver and kidneys. However, a day later in cats and two days later in dogs the patients can suddenly become much worse. They may become depressed, weak, and dehydrated. They may develop diarrhea, mouth ulcers, rapid breathing and seizures. Their kidneys are often painful and swollen.
