Something is wrong with Starsky Starsky has been feeling down the last 4 days. I thought it was the food I had changed him too, so I put him on a rice and and boiled chicken diet. He was hungry a lot so he went back to the Nutro that I used to feed him. He is having normal stools and urinating fine. He is just so said and not peppy. I think tonight I figured it out. He won't let me look in his mouth, like he hurt a tooth or something. He didn't eat his Nutro dry food this morning but he ate the chicken and rice tonight. His breath smells bad too. It has never smelt bad. It smells a lot like Shylahs and she is teething. I am going to take him to the vet tomorrow. I feel so sorry for him feeling this way. He still greets me at the door with hugs and kisses, then he just wants to lay down. I wish there was something I could do for him for the pain. |
I'm sorry he's not feeling well. Sounds like a tooth like you think. I'm glad he's going to the vet tomorrow. He'll feel better in no time. :bighug: |
Awe, I'm sorry to hear that he's not feeling well. I guess the best thing is to take him to the vet tomorrow...and give him lots of love tonight. Keep us updated! |
Poor baby! Sorry to hear he's not feeling well. Let us know what you find out at the vets. |
Yeah, sounds like he has a sore tooth. I'm glad you're taking him to the vet. Let us know how it goes. |
Oh hun please give him big hugs and kisses for us and I hope he is feeling better real soon!:getwellso :hug: :love-hug3 :kiss3: :getwell: :big_hug: :hug60: :kiss4: |
keep us up to date Let us know how your little one is doing. It is heart breaking to see them get sick.:unlove: |
You are not going to believe this! :( well I took Starsky to the vet and you are not going to believe this. His teeth are fine but he has an infection in his trachea and on his gums!! Leave it to my Starsky to get something weird!! They had to put him out to see it and as soon as they put the tube down his throat, they saw the puss from the infection. Not sure what caused it, could be a piece of food or even mucas. He is still groggy tonight from the anesthetic. I gave him his first round of antibiotics tonight in his food. I can't wait to have my peppy Starsky back!! He looks so sad and his coloring is even different. Well at least we know what it is and we are on the road to recovery. Thanks for all the caring responses, but we aren't out of the woods yet. Poor Shylah misses her playmate!! |

Glad to hear that your litle Starsky is on the road to mending. What an unusual ailment. Once again, good judgement prevailed -- getting him to the vet quickly probably spared him more serious illness Way to go MOM! Sending healing hugs :ghug: |
Wow, just read this thread...sorry to hear Starsky is sick!! I just hate it when something is wrong and you know something is, but not what...so worrying!! Glad you at least know what it is now...how scary that must have been though when you got there and they had to knock him out!! And then they tell you about an infection...I know you must have really been worried!! Hope the antibiotics work quickly for him and he is back to his normal self soon!!:) |
Great to hear Starsky is feel better, before you know it he will be his crazy self. |
still groggy it's 10:00 at night and Starsky is still kind of out of it. He was put under around 1:30 pm. Is this normal? I just hate seeing him this way. He is laying in my arms right now and I am being a 1 handed typer! He did eat a good dinner and got his first dose of antibiotics tonight. I sure hope he acts better tomorrow. |
He'll probably recover very quickly. I hope so, anyway. I'm glad you took him in when you did and got it taken care of quickly. Let us know how he progresses.:) |
