Any way it turned out she had giardia and caused a fever he metronidazole liquid and clavamox drops. Thursday It will be a week! Her fever was 104.2 at the vets and now it is 103.5. SHe is not well. Clavamox is anti biotic I just found out. NO wonder It is not bringing her fever down. When I questioned him about this he said oh bring her in bring her in again but for what ? Just to make more money!
PLease help me she is my best friend ! What should I do? How can I bring down her fever?? |

"This vet Is rude and unkind he has no passion left or love of animals. This place is taking advantage of the Bronx community. High Prices for horrible care. Go to the vets on Riverdale Ave. in Riverdale. The Prices are not much higher. They love animals. Bronxites you deserve the best."

Clearly I did know there was something about money....it was in your words! I did not say it to be rude.....I was merely pointing out the fact that vetting is not cheap....and if you want a real diagnosis, you have to spend money for testing because vets cannot perform miracles. Not rude...just fact!
And, I am going one step further with you...I realize you have a job but how does that excuse you from leaving that pup to suffer? You are the one who has described her condition and every single person here has told you that you need to get her to a vet NOW...not tomorrow. You live in NYC? And, you cannot find a vet who works somewhere outside your working hours? No one is telling you to lose your job. BUT, I am going to tell you this....if it keeps up as it is, you are going to lose your pup ... how will you feel when you go home and find her dead? That is a very real possibility if she is as sick as you have described. You need to think of ways to get money together...go through that list in the Sick and Injured forum, sell something you can live without, ask friends for a loan.....promise to do some side job. I am sure you can get creative and think of something!
