Glad baby momma is feeling better....
As far as lack of responses....perhaps no one felt really comfortable "treading into those waters", by trying to second guess what may be happening with a pregnant Yorkie. No harm done, no foul....they may have wanted to be sure you went to the vet with this pregnant momma, rather than settle for guesses about illness made over the internet, on a pregnant dog. And it looks like maybe you would have settled for guesses, and throwing antibiotics at an unknown, definite diagnosis, to avoid "expensive blood tests", only following up if no improvmnt was seen.......that is too great a risk to take on a pregnant dog. Chalk it up to the cost of doing business. |
