Wow, it has been almost 2 days, I hope she is okay. |
sooo....bella is at the vet....its the vet the breeder is willing to pay for, but its not 24 hour care...so pretty much no one is there from 8 at night till 7 am....is this normal?? they arent telling me very much...i visit her and she looks peppy...but all they say is she is continuing to have treatments (which i guess is the nebulizer and iv)...but they havnt got the results from the throat culture and i dont evenknow if this new vet has looked at the xrays....i am going to visit her again soon..when i go what should i say to this vet???? i feel so left in the dark... |
I am sorry you little pup is so sick. I hope she gets better soon. As for you feeling in the dark, you should tell the vet you want to know what is exactly is going on with your dog and how he is planning to treat her. The vet should tell you all this without being told to. When I take Rocky or my cat to my vet, I have to remind him to not speak in technical terms but in english because he explains thing to me great detail. I sometimes go on system overload. |

Why the throat culture - do you know what they are looking for? We're still thinking of and praying for Bella. Please keep us posted. |
So Sorry to read this forum I hope everything is going good and Bella is coming home with you today. I would tell the vet that you are her owner and you want to know everything that is going on and since they are not a 24 hour care facilitythat, you want to take har home and treat her, and my God if she's going to pass away she should be with the woman who loves her the most. If you can handle it. I know that is what I would want. Sorry to be so so Bixxy. My prayers are with you and Bella and I hope for the best.. Linda |
Oh, goodness. I just read this post. I am so sorry to hear how sick your baby is. I am curious as to why the breeder is only wlling to pay for this particular vet...if it were a puppy I sold, I would make sure the vet you chose is a GOOD one but I would want you to be comfortable and have your baby where you want. I have had a baby with a similar problem and it did recover but it really took a long time so don't get discouraged. Prayers are being sent your way for you, Bella and those in charge of her care... |
I really hope she recovers soon! You are both in my prayers ;) |
Please keep in touch - I'm concerned about your little pup. Perhaps your breeder just has her "favorite vet" -- one that she uses and is most comfortable with. I know it's especially hard when a definitive diagnosis can't be quickly made. But, this happens with people also. I have a dear elderly woman friend who has been in the hospital for almost a week - they know basically what her problems are - but they are still running tests to try and figure out more exactly what is going on and what other treatments might be used. She isn't doing very well - it's sad..... You just sit down with the vet and tell him that you're having a hard time understanding everything that's going on. And - if you have trouble understanding what he is saying - ask him to explain it again.... Please keep in touch -- Carol Jean |

Ok.....so i went to the vet today and he said she was doing better....he said i could take her home today which i did. she is on antibiotics, but they still havent recived the throat culture results....they got the prelimanary ones which show that the bacteria causing the infection is called pseudomonas...if that sounds familiar to anyone please tell...i am going back on monday for her checkup....i am going to ask them to take more xrays and stuff...i was wondering tho...how much food shoudl she be eating a day??? she is 2 pounds??? thank again everyone for your prayers....i think if she stays strong she will be able to pull through..... |
Also...if there is anything anyone ever needs i hope that i will be able to help you all the way you have helped me....thank you soo much |
Joy- I'm so glad Bella is back home with you and doing well. Give her lots of hugs and kisses from us!! |
