holly My Holly died today from lead poisoning. She was 6 months old. She has been in and out of the vet for over a month. At first they thought she had liver shunts, then encephalitis from toxoplamosis or neospora, then she got pneumonia and THEN on a chest x-ray the vet finally saw a metallic object, a lead craft weight. She endured a spinal tap, a brochoscopy and endoscopy. She had had lead poisoning all this time. Today her breathing became so irregular the vet called us in. We had been visiting twice a day. She was having seizures. We just didnt know what to do. Then she had another seizure while we were holding her and she stopped breathing. The vet gave her an injection and then she was gone. Oh how I loved her. Oh how I will miss her. So sad....So sad. |
Oh, I'm so sorry to hear this. Poor little girl - all that she went through. It sounds like you tried so hard to help her - I'm sure she knows how much you love her. RIP Holly! |

I am sorry for your tremendous loss. Rest in peace Holly. |
I am so very sorry for your loss! I had a breeder friend tell me that lead poisoning happened to one of her puppies with their new family when they discovered a dime in the intestines during a necropsy. Since I heard that, I'm terrified every time someone turns their jeans over and coins drop on the floor and of course my dogs run to investigate. |
Oh I am so sorry about the loss of your little Holly. So many thing to worry about with these little ones . . my Lucy will chew/eat anything she can find. I pray you find peace and comfort. |
