fluid build up around dogs feet and balls

[dogemdownsouth]

has anyone ever had a dog get over heated and start building up fluid(swelling) around lower extremities(feet and balls) for several days after? how did you treat it, and how long did it last? any info would be greatly appreciated.

Im no vet or doctor but it sounds like congestive heart failure. Same kind if symptoms in humans.

Don't mean to sound rude, but why in the world would you have a dog at a vet that hasn't helped him in a month! No dog of mine would have been there near that long without some, no, a lot of progress being shown. Hope the dog does fine but that vet won't be the reason if he hasn't done it in 30 days. JMO

like i said the dog belongs to someone else so i dont know the details between him and the vet. lets just stick to the subject if you dont mind.

Why would ANYONE have a dog at a vet that hasn't done any good for a month? Like I said I hope the dog does good and wasn't being rude.

Have one on me,
