Don't mean to annoy you, Dawn. It's just that you spoke so highly of the vet before and said that two of them concurred...and now this?? It just scares me. These little pups cannot withstand illnesses that go on and on without proper care. Also, if she is uncomfortable, please call your vet...I have never heard of not medicating a pup for pain when a steroid is given. They cannot give Metacam or Rimadyl .. but those are not really *pain* meds. They are anti inflammatories and yes, the are contraindicated with steroids. There are pain meds that would not be contraindicated.
Brandi is in my thoughts and prayers. I hope your poor baby is better soon.
