***update on roxie Well it turned out it WASNT tapeworm, it was her intestinal lining hanging out of her rear. Some how or another she was straining, and it came out. The vet thinks she had stool matted to her hair, and thats what was causing her not to be able to use the bathroom, but she didnt have any poop matted to her hair untill after she did poop, i always brush her hair ,and check her over often. Its swollen, and he pushed it in, but it came right back out, they also said she hadnt produced a stool sample all day. But her belly isnt as swollen as it was earlier. He gave me a spray to spray on her butt and within 48 hours, the swelling should go down, and go back in. I have to monitor her attitude, her stools, and her butt and call him back in the morning. I made sure to ask if this would interfear with her spay next thursday, and they said it shouldnt, unless it gets worse, but alot of the redness is gone, and its not as swollen anymore, so he thinks it will be gone in a day or two. Roxie is up and playing,biting and running around like her usual self, so id say shes feeling much better, she wants to go out to play, but we are having a bad storm so hopefully it will quit so i can take her out thanks for all your support, you guys are the best! |
Oh wow - that is scary but I'm soooo glad she's ok...Good thing you took her in and I hope she feels better soon - poor baby - was she brave ? |
I am so glad that she is alright. :p |
She was a very brave girl, she was so happy to see me, i held her away because i didnt want her to pee all over my work clothes LOL, she did so good today, im so proud of her, hopefully the swelling will go down and im going to take her to petco and buy her some new toys!! |
Your poor baby, I am so glad your vet checked her and she was well enough to come home, and now she is well enough to play and have a good time ;) Sounds like good news. I hope she is feeling all better really soon!! Please keep us posted on her. |
WOW that is so scary. Im glad that she is doing better now. I will keep her in my prayers for her to get better soon. Please keep us posted. :) |
I'm so glad she is feeling better. Keep an eye on her & give her lots of love!! Good luck! |
Aww, I am so glad to hear Roxie is feeling better.. Good luck and keep us posted!! |
I'm so glad she's doing better and that she's on the mend. I've been checking off and on today to see if there was any news on here about her! So glad to hear it's good news! Bless her little heart! |
Aw poor baby! I am glad she is okay!! |
I am so glad that you were able to find out what was wrong. IT will be a little discomforting to her, but she should be fine. We hope you feel better Lexi |
Oh me so glad to hear that I said a prayer for you and her both,Iwas really worried it didnt sound good!!!!!! |
I suggest you delay the spaying for another week or 2 and let her little body heal before she has a surgery. Even though she may seem fine give her time to get over this and feel 100% for the good of her health! |
Ashley, I cannot tell you how happy I am to hear this news. That was what my friend's Maltese had andthat is why I wanted you yo take her to the vet. I agree that I would put her spaying off til she is back to normal with her hiney and bm's..Anesthesia can just add another dimension to her problem..Give her kisses for us!! |
get well hugs from Oklahoma So glad little Roxie is better....sorry that she has had this problem. Max and Maggie's Mom |
