Hi Lori, I'm glad that Khloe is improving. With respect to the pain medication, I'm sure that the vet knows best. Pain medication can be very powerful and toxic, even more so for small puppies, and could do more harm than good. I'm sure that the steroids are doing her more good than the pain medication, and maybe he is concerned that the combination would be too toxic to her little system. The fact that she is conscious and eating the high calorie food by mouth is very encouraging! Keep us posted on her progress! |
