Thanks to everyone who has responded regarding my little Bella and her sickness. She is still the same -- she eats a little boiled chicken two or three times a day and still will not drink water on her own. She urinates three or four times a day which is good and still rests and sleeps most of the day. She apparently does not like rice. I love hearing from people that love dogs as much as I do. I also, for those who inquired about the shelter operations, contacted the shelter and they said what they will do if I bring Bella back to them for treatment will most likely put her down. However, before doing so, send emails to various rescue agencies to see if any of them are willing to take her and give her treatment (pretty much continue doing what I am already doing) and then the rescue agency, if able to make her better, then tries to find her a home -- in other words, I would not get her back. So, I am going to keep doing what I am doing and hopefully she does not have distemper and it's just a respiratory infection and she should get a lot better with a couple more days of her antibiotic. Thanks again, I'll keep you posted. |
