Puppies!!! Mom delivered 2 earlier today and then labor stopped. Emergency C-section to save the remaining 2 pups. Do you know the breed?

This is such gaslighting it’s infuriating. That’s why it’s so upsetting. As if the answer is that simple. 🙄

Never two puppies

…continued…Huk has 1 copy of the gene & had unusual side effects to Cerenia. Cerenia and Zofran are lesser known meds on the MDR1 list. Testing for the mutation is easy at prime.vetmed.wsu.edu
AND DON’T FORGET TO TEST CATS! Especially purebred cats.
Happy to report that Huk feels better today. ☺️

“White feet don’t treat” is a warning based on an old belief that dogs with white feet have severe side effects to certain meds.
The MDR1/ABCB1 gene mutation leads to a lack of p glycoprotein & causes certain meds to breach the blood brain barrier.
Dogs & CATS can have this mutation. Yes, CATS!

My cat DJ (isn’t he adorable) demonstrates that cats will sit on/in anything that resembles a box. Check out this study exploring this topic: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Hi I’m Dr. Forbes. I’m in exile from TikTok. I share my life as a veterinarian. I love to connect with pet parents. This is Pesto (the Lions fan) and Pop. She’s taking a break from the game to clean Pop’s ear. What teams do your pets cheer for?
