Hi everyone. i am just back from my holidays and found out that my little baby was very sick during the holiday while he was with my parents. Before i went i had him at the vet three times and the last time the vet said he was much happier with him....said he was much better. That evening i took him to my familys house. He was still coughing and still had blocked nose but had yet to finish the course of antibiotics. During the first week of my holiday Buddy got worse and his cough was very bad. He wasnt playing and was thrown down all of the time. My sister and brother looked after them during the day as they are on holidays from school and college. When he heard people coming into the room he didnt even look up. He was crying constantly and began vomiting everythin he ate and drank. My parents took him to their vet that they used before. the first thing the vet said was that he had worms when he held him. then he said the antiobiotic he was on was useless and it was for humans but would be of no use to Buddy. He said the eardrops i had been told to use on him were for old and large dogs and were too strong. He gave him an injection for his flu as it had developed into a chest infection. He also gave him a worm dose.
He asked my parents to bring him back in again the following day. That evening Buddy passed a tape worm (even though my own vet had told me he had dosed him for worms).
He got a second injection the following day to finally get rid of the chest infection....that evenin he was in great form and was playing and eating.
My parents didnt want to tell me until i came home as they knew i would be very upset. Buddy is so much better now and is in great form |
