Little Ella did great at the vet. She is blind and has an infection in her only eye. So we have antibiotic drops for that. She is deaf. This is probably the reason adjustment was so difficult in a new enviroment. The vet believes she is younger than 15 she wrote 12-15 but because of the severe dental disease and extreme neglect she appears older. She has kennel cough. She is debarked. She has some cardiac issues. She had her urine tested and shows alot of blood but she's in heat so they may not mean much. They didnt see any sign of stones in her urine but that dosent mean she dosent have them. Poor little thing had a rectal and vaginal exam
everything there looked good. So the bad news is the vet believes she is either diabetic, has kidney disease and a bladder infection or all of the listed. She dosent think she is incontinant. So she gave me antibiotics which she felt she should have been taking anyway because of the eye removal. She hopes the frequent peeing is just a bladder infection, so if she dosent get better from the antibiotics then she feels little Ella may not be healthy enough to live comfortably with any of the more serious problems.
I gave her a really good bath when we got home (which she absolutly hated) and fed her and she is out like a light. She hadnt had a bath and had that black oily stuff on her skin. She was really dirty. She dosent really have much body hair. Her back is so sparse. But she has normal leg hair? I forgot to ask the vet about this.
So she is doing alot better in the house she has found her favorite spot. Its a coffee table shelf. Weird!!!!! But she likes it. I kept trying to get her to lay somewhere else but she just keeps going back so I put a blanket there and she always ends up there. I need to resize the pic and Ill post it. I feel alot better with her being able to be with the rest of us instead of the bathroom all time. But we are going through diapers like you cant believe. I now know what a mom feels like with newborn. They just eat, sleep and pee. And keep you up all night
