I'm only saying this from experience with my husbands cocker spaniel Lady....She was the BEST dog ever and poor girl went into renal failure at 14 years old.....She was never in any pain that I could tell ...
Renal Failure can go on for quite a while before it gets to the point that the quality of life is not good....I'm sorry - and this is ONLY my opinion and for you to really get a good answer for this - the vet can tell you more.....
Good luck and sorry to hear about your poodle... |
thanks for the information, you may be right...she does seem a bit bloated at times, she is on lasix so you wouldn't think you would see it. She is going back to the vet this week. She doesn't look like she is uncomfortable, she has actually been more playful since we got Lola.
Thanks again!
