Unfortunately, this is a really common change in 2 year old dogs. Molly is reaching social maturity and things that used to bother her slightly but not cause a reaction are causing BIG reactions. She was probably always a bit nervous around other dogs, and now she's showing it. I recommend backing off her interaction with other dogs, so she's not practicing this aggressive behavior. No dog parks, etc. Then ask your veterinarian for a referral to a good trainer who can work with you on counter conditioning and desensitization to help Molly learn that other dogs aren't scary. This book is also very helpful if you don't have access to a trainer: https://www.amazon.com/Feisty-Fido-Help-Leash-Reactive-Dog/dp/1891767070

Since Molly cannot talk, we will never know. Dogs are individuals and can be quirky just like humans. I recommend to go outside with her every time she potties to make sure that she uses the bathroom appropriately and so you don’t have a mess to clean up. If the stool appears abnormal or she appears to have problems with incontinence, I recommend to have Molly examined by her veterinarian. Best of luck.

Hello, thank you for using Boop by Petco. Poor Molly, that looks uncomfortable. Molly may be having some type of allergic reaction that has become infected. Make sure you are using a good flea product, not just a cheap one from WalMart. If Molly will let you, you can try bathing her in a medicated shampoo that has Benzoyl Peroxide. If not, please have her seen by your veterinarian. She may need to be treated with a steroid injection &/or antibiotics to clear this up, or to get to the source of the irritation. Take care.

Oh Molly. What a naughty girl! The only problem we would anticipate with a dog eating an excessive number of treats and cat food would be gastrointestinal upset. If Molly develops diarrhea, you could consider feeding her a bland diet of 1/2 cooked white meat chicken (no skin or bones) and 1/2 cooked white rice until the diarrhea resolves. If Molly is lethargic, does not want to eat, vomits or has bloody diarrhea, I would recommend having your veterinarian examine her. Good luck! Hopefully Molly won't have any problems. Thanks for using Boop by Petco.

Poor Molly! It certainly seems like she has something going on. I would recommend taking her in for an exam by a veterinarian. She is considered geriatric, so blood work would be a great start. Some dogs are very good at hiding pain, a good vet exam can make sure there is no pain. After the exam- the veterinarian will determine a treatment plan for her. It could be something simple like a blocked anal gland or something more complex. Thanks for reaching out to Boop by Petco!
