whats wrong with lacey? - Page 4 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Oh, I am so sorry she is not doing well today. I know how you must be feeling. I have been back and forth to the vet this past week with my Coffee and I'm a wreck and it's not nearly as serious as your Lacey.

Hang in there, we are all saying prayers for you and your little girl.
give her a peck on her little nose for me and huge hugs to you.

Is she on lactulose 3x per day to the point where her stools are soft but formed? Is she on Hill's L/D or Royal Canin Hepatic? It's best to try to feed her small meals as often as possible. Is she refusing food altogether? It may be helpful for you to hold an ice pack on her back when she is seizuring. Studies have shown that this may help to lessen the duration...Is she drinking? If not, you need to syringe water into her mouth to keep her hydrated. She may need fluids immediately, so she probably needs to go to the vet...

I am so sorry to hear about this. Bruce and I will keep you and Laci in our prayers!

yes lactulose every 8 hours, LD at 6,10,2,6 and 10 small amounts and metronidazole 1 time a day. her poop is what they want she is eating but not drinking as much as she should. also on nutrical and going to get pedealite tonight. and i have been doing the ice pk thing it seems to kind of help i think. other then that the vet want nothing to change til monday but to me i think she is getting worse.

He was misdiagnosed, first with Legg Perthes, then arthritis, then Hip Displasia,
now at last we know its soft tissue damage on his left side of the back. On medication now, going on to Hills j/d next week, possibly cortisone and may need physio. For now we are doing swimming therapy. Things are looking up at last! Pays to get second opinion!!

Thinking of you and your baby.

Sharonandtink · 12-02-2007, 11:59 AM

Just thought that I would check in and see how the little one is doing. Praying that everything is getting better.

awww poor little guy glad to hear he is doing better sorry i didnt see that he was sick. water theropy is great! one of my dogs lacey tore a liggament in her knee and after surg we did that with her, she recovered faster. praying he continues to get better

scoobiedooiscoo · 12-03-2007, 05:48 AM

update on lacey, thurs. and fri. she had pretty good days and even played with me for a while. i was so happy i cried lol. the rest of the week has been bad, today or tomorow we go see the vet again so i will let you know what he says. oh and get this! my neighbor just got a dog and brought it over before taking it to the vet and it has some highly contagus disease, my other friend that works at the vets office called me to tell me to keep that dog and her family away from my house but she couldnt tell me what the dog has, she was at work and could get fired for even telling me what she did. i am pi****. i would never bring an animal that hasnt been seen by a vet into my home or any other home without knowing it was healthy. so now i have to call neighbor and try to find out whats wrong with her dog without her knowing i know anything so i can at least talk to my vet about it.

Sharonandtink · 12-03-2007, 03:11 PM

I am happy that she was feeling good for a couple days and so sorry that she is feeling bad now. I can't believe that your neihbors did that to your sick baby. They should have known better. Well I hope that you are able to find out what there baby had and hopefully yours did not catch it.

Keep your chin up.

littlewhip · 12-03-2007, 03:26 PM

Happy to hear she is doing better, Shame on your neighbors. prayers to you & lacy.

SkiinGrl4Life · 12-03-2007, 03:30 PM
