Do they know what caused the HGE? Ive read that its not contagious but have also read that sometimes multiple dogs in the same house will get it and other times only one will get it. What time of the year did Rusty get it? Daisy had HGE last February and then again the beginning of this winter. Since it has happend two winters in a row I am wondering if this has something to do with the season? Ive also read that putting the dog on a hypoallergenic food can help prevent HGE from happening again. I figure if Daisy has a food allergy, IBD, or HGE, hypoallergenic food is the way to go right now. Im just wondering which type will work best for her and if she will need any other medication from this happening again. She vomited today the first time in about 12 days. She was pretty worked up though since I was trying to give her a hair cut and she had a full belly (not sure if this could be the cause). I figured since she is licking so much its best to shave her hair pretty short. Shes making it difficult though not too happy about it. Her vets groomer is out due to surgery or I would take her there. What type of medication did they put your pups on and did they change their diet? Daisy has been on all sorts of medication and none has seemed to work until the reglan, but she has vomited twice on it in the last 19 days. She is constantly burping and sounding as if she is swallowing her vomit. I have also read that it can take up to 12 weeks for improvement after switching them to hypoallergenic food. |
