Yes, that's exactly what I've read (and more) on Rimadyl. That's why flags went up. It seems like the dogs who've had problems on it were taking it over a period of time.....I don't want her to be in pain (especially since she's going to have several things done), but I also would rather her take something that's safer (if that's even an option!) I also know they heal pretty quickly this young, so she may be just fine after a day or 2 (I think they give me enough for 3 days)...I just don't want her to suffer for those first day(s).
I'm going to read a little more, but what I'm really looking for is a little reassurance that this med is problematic only after long-term use, and that no one has heard of there being any problems after having used it for just a day or 2. I'm just a worried mom!
