I won't be arguing this point..probably won't be back to read the responses because this thread has disturbed me greatly. I really think that many people do not realize how serious pancreatitis can be. |
I don’t get it, what has Brit done that troubles you? I think she is taking this very seriously, and she is listening to her vet’s recommendations. Maybe it’s because you skimmed the posts, but had you read them, you would know that she’s not asking about what treats to give him now, she understands he has to stabilize, but these questiond were for once he’s stabilized and doing well. I take responsibility for asking so much about the bully sticks, I wanted to understand WHY they weren’t good for dogs with pancreatitis. I do understand this is a life threatening illness.
First and foremost shouldn’t our job here be one of support, to help Brit a through all this and guide her the best we can? What up with getting mad because you don’t like her line of questions? How is that post helpful? I respect you greatly Linda, but I'm really confused. Is Brit doing anything now that you see as dangerous to Jackson’s recovery because you kind of hint to that? I imagine this is a huge responsibility for a 20 year old girl, and I for one think she’s handling it beautifully. Maybe she's not as emotional and dramatic as some pet owners, but that doesn't mean that she's not feeling this deeply. I really don't think we should add to her emotional burden unless we really think her treatment of Jackson is negligent.
