| Need immediate help- It's not chewie. My sister is in the military, so is her husband right now as we speak, so she's there until 7am. Her dog, Ozzie, an Australian cattle dog. A few hours ago he stopped doing anything, and he's in the corner shaking. won't eat and won't drink. He's 13 in three weeks. Sister is taking him to the vet asap in the morning. Does this always mean it's too late, or can this be any number of aging issues? She's pregnant, too, and had a scare so I hope I get some answers. Last edited by JennaPenny; 04-02-2017 at 10:37 PM.

| My 17 yo girl stopped eating and drinking, no shaking tho, the out come was not good. Hopefully your sister's dog can be treated, it could be anything, keeping your family and the pup in my thoughts for a positive report today.

| I so hope not. I love that dog, and it breaks my heart for her. Her lab was given away when her son was born two years ago, so he doesn't have her with him, either. I'll keep you updated. |

| That sounds like the dog is in pain. In those situations really you should take them to the vet asap.

| Pregnant or not, her dog sounds like it is in acute distress and a vet consult is in order ASAP.

| I know. The military just isn't like most jobs. . It doesn't help she's one of the only people on the shift, either. He, according to her, is "okay" and they found ticks on him. Yes, I know. I don't approve, either. They didn't take him to the vet. It's something that her and I just do NOT see eye to eye on. She thinks I'm nuts for my vet visits. I think she's nuts for not taking him more often. She said everything was great this morning, and they found two ticks. |
