Latest update... 1st off thank you all for the well wishes & please continue to pray, we are NOT out of the safe zone, specially what happens about 45 mins ago. We tried to feed her but she didnt want to eat so I force fed her vitamin which the vet said to be aggressive about & about 5 mins later my husband sees her strain herself & falls over & shes whining... I ran to pick her up & her eyes roll back & she stops whining & moving & I think we literally lost her, i ran out the door & was getting in the car when all of a sudden she moves her head & picks it up & drops it into my chest. I kissed her & she looked up at me & I took a deep breath... I was like oooommmgggggg. We put her down on our bed away from her siblings & we realized she also pooped herself... I picked up the phone to the ER vet & they were no help, I think she ended up having a seizure. She is ok now & laying on our bed, she ate a little bit of the a/d & tried to drink some of the pedialyte but prefers straight water.

We dont know what happened, everything was fine all day, her urine even went back to normal, pure yellow. Then this... my heart is still in my throat & Im a heck of an emotional roller coaster, so please continue praying & I will be back with an update tomorrow.. I promise! TY :)

I would think that the EC would suggest that you bring the puppy in for an exam. Has blood work been done on him? If not, I would strongly suggest you either get him in to the EC tonight...or get him to the vet first thing in the morning. Blood work would show if he has anemia or any major organ problems due to the toxic effect of the zinc. This could have affected his liver. No one will be able to advise you on the phone.

I will keep your puppy in my prayers.

Nothing new, except I called 3 different specialists today & they have given me the ball park figure of $1200 for 3-5 days of IV fluids & eventually a blood transfusion... I dont know which way to go, do ONLY fluids & see how she does or go straight into a Blood transfusion.... decisions decisions,,, & the hardest ive ever made.

The worse part about all this is we just finished moving & money is VERY tight, so we waited til the morning. She has been great all day, I just got back from the vet & we were told her anemia is very severe, so tomorrow we will be taking her to my regular vet & getting an IV therapy done & doing a full chemistry w/ the organ cbc included.

I will be back tomorrow. Thanks for all the continued support.
