Thanks for the prayers. Cocoa is stable as long as he has a catheter in because he can urinate. But without it, he starts going down fast. So right now my vet is keeping the catheter in and trying to treat with meds. He is stable but if this doesn't work, there isn't much more they can do for him. My friend visited with him yesterday for an hour and a half. My hubby and I check on him when we bring Cali for laser treatments. UPDATE: Cali is doing much better. We had a week of real stiff legs and they were crisscrossing (like an X) to where she couldn't undo them or use them at all. Now, after many prayers, stretching, massaging from mommy, and 2 laser treatments, she started walking again this morning. We have a chiro appt Monday so hopefully that helps too. |
Looking for an update, did Callie see the Chiro today ? If so, how did it go ? |

YES!!! We went...it went great. There were no obvious changes after first adjustment but she did give us some stretches to do daily and we are scheduled for her next adjustment. It was an extremely nice office and Cali seemed very happy. I will update again soon! |
Just checking in to see how sweet Cali is doing. We're still keeping her in our thoughts and prayers!!!! xoxox |
UPDATE: Sorry it has been so long with an update. I've been so busy. Poor little Cali is worse with her back legs. She isn't using them at all and they twist around each other, making an "X". She can use her front legs but hops her back end (similiar to a seal). She's had 2 chiropractic adjustments to no avail and she's getting K-Laser treatments again. Her vet has placed her back on Prednisone twice daily to see if we can snap her out of this. I'll try to get a picture to post. I do appreciate the continued prayers and support! :) |
Oh so sorry to hear that Cali has had a set back. She was doing so well. You know the YT prayers will continue without ceasing! |
I am so very sorry. I know that your heart is sad. You have been so strong for your baby. I truely hope that the prednisone will help. I will continue to pray. |
I'm so sorry that Cali's legs aren't cooperating:( More prayers being sent that she gets better, poor little darling!!! |
So sorry to hear precious Cali's back legs have had a set back. I'll be doubling up on my prayers for sweet Cali!!!! Give her hugs and kisses from Dessa!!!! Hoping and praying she improves real soon!!!! xoxoxo |
Just read this entire thread. You have been through so much with Cali. She sure did good when she picked her mommy and dad!! You guys have gone above and beyond in getting her well. I'm sending prayers to Cali and I hope she gets better soon. Take care. |
UPDATE: Thanks to all of you for the support. It means sooooo much! I just want everyone to know that despite Cali's condition, she has been such a happy puppy regardless. She hobbles to her pee-pad and urinates all over her bottom. But bless her heart she makes it to the pad (if it's in the same room). I do miss taking her outside to walk in the grass b/c she was so enjoying that (and she would run with her little bunny hop). Nothing can break her spirit! I didn't take a pic today but will try to remember tomorrow to get one. She is such a little blessing. Thanks again! |
4 Attachment(s) UPDATE: Cali's legs are getting loose but they are still criss crossed (see pics below). We have her on Dilantin 3cc's once daily, Thyro-tab once daily, Prednisone once daily, and Valium twice daily. Attachment 373254 Attachment 373255 Attachment 373256 Attachment 373257 |
I still think she needs an MRI of her head & spine. She may have had a spinal stroke. |
She is absolutely adorable!!! I am keeping precious Cali in my thoughts and prayers!!! Did they ever decide what exactly is causing her problems? They never did on Dessa. They ruled out a lot of things, but they determined it must have been a reaction to all the vacinations she received at one time. I hate that Cali is having to go through this, but she is a strong little girl and has lots of people praying for her!!! I keep all of you in my thoughts and prayers daily!!! Give sweet Cali a hug and kiss form us!!! |
