Well, another worry. He is eating some but hasn't pooped for 2 days. I don't know what is happening. Also he is getting kind of jumpy. He will be lying on my lap and all of a sudden he jumps up and acts scared and goes to the other end of the couch. I try to reassure him all is ok but he just isn't himself. Any ideas? |
I am so sorry you two are going through all this. I have no advice but want you to know prayers are going up. Hopefully someone with experience with all this can help you. |
dog HI i am from san diego too. Get a good vet and take dudley in. I go to dr houston at the pet hospital in tierransanta. He is really good. I will pray for him. |
He gets his blood retested on June 20 so will ask the vet then if he has any ideas about this behavior. I just thought maybe someone here might have some idea of why he is so jumpy. I hope he isn't in pain. |
prayers for dudley i hope you find the cause of the issue maybe constipation? could you check with your vet on something to help if he still hasnt done number 2?? best wishes. |
I did get him the pumpkin as was suggested. Thank you for that. He pooped twice and seemed to feel better. I wonder if this has something to do with the meds he is taking. I guess I will find out when I return to the vet. My avatar shows Dudley lying in his corner of the couch. |
Some meds can definitely cause constipation. Will Dudley eat green beans and/or carrot sticks? I give those to Mandie (she loves them) to add some fiber to her diet. Glad he pooped! He is so cute in your avatar. :) |
Dudley Poor guy, he has been through a lot but seems to recover and feel good again. As for the jumpiness, my dog goes through phases of this. He will be sleeping or lying down and will suddenly, for no apparent reason, jump up and run away from me. He has no medical issues, so I feel sure it's not that. I have found that often he reacts like this when he wants something, like a drink or potty. Other times there is no explanation. Perhaps he hears a noise, has a scary dream ( if dogs dream?) , or he has tummy gas?? It is disturbing I know. Of course it could be his health issues or the meds?? Your future vet trip will hopefully help discover the cause. Praying for Dudley that he feels better and for you, as this roller coaster is very stressful. |

Back to vet today I have to take Dudley in at 9:00 this morning to see how the meds are working. I pray that his numbers are better but I don't know what is going to happen. I will let you guys know how it turns out. |
Praying that you get some news |
Let us know when you can, how Dudley did today. |
Well the news is good and bad. The kidneys are a little better(not much but some) one of the liver tests is now normal and the other is worse. She said to try giving him fish oil as it is good for the liver. Ok. How much should I give him as a 3 pound dog? Any ideas? She just said to poke a hole in a capsule and put it on his food. She has never seen him so I just am at a loss. Please let me know if any of you use this on your pups. |
