 Adonis
How I feel for you with the roller coaster that renal failure disease has you riding. I have been on that crazy ride. The hydration restores the dog to normalcy for a while, and then the plug is pulled and he is back down again. It depends on how much function the kidney has left. If it is caught early, keeping on home hydration every few days can keep the dog relatively normal and happy. I pray that after the current crisis is over you can maintain him at home. I have heard of many pets who live for many years with home treatment and special diet. So there is hope, please don't give up!
Sadly my dog was too far along when we realized he was sick and the home hydrations only worked for about an hour before he relapsed. We could not see her so sick and we had to let her go.
Thinking of you and praying dear Adonis will perk up and stay well. Hugs. |
