Then around 10 am she stood up and I knew something was going to happen so I put her down and she had diahrrea again and this time it was really mucus looking. I decided that was it....I needed to get her to the vet.
We went to the vet and was able to get in. She didn't have a fever but she has lost 5 oz since our meetup. She was 3 lbs. last week and now she is 2 lbs. 11 oz. The vet felt her stomach and it didn't seem to hurt her so they are sending her diahrrea (the last one I picked up with a papertowel and put in a tupperwear) to the lab. They gave her some sub Q liquids and some meds to make her feel better. She told me to try to feed her some food about 6pm tonite and gave me A/D food. They also gave me a prescription for Flagyl and told me to start that tonight.
She just looks so sad and she keeps making whimpering sounds. I hope she is better soon. Is anyone else's dog sick after the meet up? I know Annika was but I think she is better. I don't know if it could be from the meetup because she seemed fine for Monday and Tuesday.  |
Rhonda, Lucy was sick until Tuesday. I could barely get her to eat and when whe did she had bad diarrea. She finally started feeling/pooping normal yesterday afternoon. I hope it's nothing serious and Teddi feels better soon!
