Mylee is back at the animal hospital and our hearts are just broken. I could tell she was happy to be home Monday evening and some of her personality was shining through even trying to lick silverware in the dishwasher and she ate well. But our luck didn't last.
She woke up in a great deal of pain, and stopped wanting to eat. She was taking water but when she started to vomit it back up we took her back out to our vet. She has been consulting a specialist over Mylee's case who has ordered a gall bladder sonogram and wanted to check for pancreatitis. She feels that what ever was in her gut from her first admission should have resolved itself by now, and that we are now dealing with a new issue. I'm so confused as to how we ever got to this point. Our little dog so full of life now looks so pitiful and sad.
I'm beating myself up over how she could have crashed so fast. The only thing I did was feed her, and by my calculations, it was by the amount of time I fed her to it making it through her stomach and into her intestines, that she started to exhibit pain. I am feeding her (and Moka) Taste of the Wild, Salmon. Can this be the issue? Over her life (5 years) I have switched from blue buffalo limited ingredient salmon and potato to Taste of the Wild Salmon off and on. This is not a new bag and I feed these two foods because Moka gets real itchy on other brands/flavors. Mylee on the other hand doesn't exhibit any allergies/itchiness to any food. For those of you who know nutrition well, can this be part of Mylee's issue? Too high fat? Etc. These are all just thoughts as I sit here waiting for my morning update.
I am so sorry to you all for the emotional roller coaster, but that is exactly what the last 8 days has been like. One day a good report, then the next, not so good and now the scariest feeling of all.
