I think it is wonderful that you adopted him. It's a bummer that he was in such bad shape that they thought he was old but I would believe the vet more than the humane society regarding his age. The good news is that with proper care you should have many wonderful years with him. What's his name?

Brandyrobertson · 12-14-2005, 07:36 PM

Needs water...will get dehydrated...take him to the vet immediatley! They might need to give him some IV fluids!

rrosenberry · 12-15-2005, 07:00 AM

What did the vet say? They cant do anything for him? Because of his age?? Or what, has he ever seen the dog? At all??
Is there any other vets around? I'd find one, and go,, This has been going on too long, there is a definate problem, and You need to find out what it is,,if it is just old and there is nothing you can do,,at least you'll know.

What you are describing look like epilepsy . If it is that , Buddy will have medications for controlling the seizures . When you'll go to the vet , don't be afraid to tell him all the symptoms that Buddy have . I wrote all them when my late Maïa was sick . It really helped them to have a better diagnosis .

My dog wouldn't drink or eat so I brought him to the vet and they gave him an IV of Liquids, She also told me to get wet food and mix water in it so he gets both. Hope this helps.
