Paisley Update
 

Hi everyone, I wanted to give a little update on Paisely. I cleaned her ears a little bit ago and I'm starting to think the ear that wasn't as bad is now getting worse. :( She's been hitting it with her paw all morning. Before she was only bothering the really bad ear but now she's just going nuts with both. I called my vet and I'm waiting for her to call back. I think I may have to take her in. I'm not sure if I'm going crazy but I kinda feel like this ear is now going shut also. I had a harder time getting the q-tip in there to clean it. If this is the case, then I would assume she would need to have the same meds that she's getting for her other ear. :confused: (each ear right now is getting treated differen'tly because the infections are not the same). I just wish this was all over and she would get better. Thank you all for the prayers and kind words right now. You have no idea how much they mean to us. Being on YT is taking my mind off everything, so thank you all so much. ;)

I just responded only to find read this . . . Oh poor paisley . . .hang in there baby . . . am sure everything will be alright. Please keep us posted after your visit. Hope it isn't as bad as the other ear :( Let me know if you need anything :(

HANG IN THERE! Those meds can be really annoying as they start to work their magic, which may be why she is digging at it.

Here's hoping that's all it is. BIG HUG!!!!

Poor Paisley!!:( Ear infections are not fun to deal with.

I hope both Paisley and Snoot feel better soon!!
They will both be in our thoughts and prayers!!

Thank you so much Des. She keeps sleeping alot but I guess thats the best thing for her right now. I hope these meds help and two weeks fly by.Thanks for thinking of us and for the prayers. paisley sends you kisses. ;)

Thank you again Des. We do apprecaite your kindness so much. I hate to say it but I think I'm right about her one ear getting worse now. :( I'm just praying I'm wrong.

Thank you so much. My vet just now called me back and said the same thing that you did. However, she said if tonight this other ear seems closed to me still, then I have to take her in to be checked tomorrow, so her meds can be switched. :( My poor baby, I just hope I'm wrong. Thanks for checking back up on her. ;)

Awww, thank you so much Tracey and an extra thanks for your very kind pm. ;) I'm about to pm you back right now. ;)

Oh, I'm so sorry that little Paisley isn't better. I hope she begins to improve soon ... it's so hard when they are sick, they can't tell us where it hurts! We will be praying for her ... and Toto sends her sweet little kisses!!

Poor Paisley, I was just about to post for an update and there you were. I will continue to keep y'all in my thoughts and prayers. Patty

So sorry for all the problems your little girl is having...if I was the breeder I would be having a serious talk with vet who checked her before the sale..how could they miss such a bad infection?..plus, always have a new puppy checked within a day of the purchase..I asked people to make an appointment so the puppy could be seen by their vet on the way home from my house when at all possible.
Best wishes

Thank you sooo much for checking on her again. ;) It's so sad to watch her. She wants to play but keeps stopping and digging at her ears. :( She eventually gives up and goes back to sleep. I'll be cleaning her ears again in another hour and hopefully the ear I was worried about isn't closing like the other. Paisley's starting to get a crush on Toto and sends kisses right back. ;)

Oh Des, I hate being wrong, LOL, but this time I DEFINATELY want to be. I'll be cleaning the ears here in another hour, so I'm just crossing my fingers now.

Thank you so much. We appreciate you checking back on her and for the prayers. ;)

Hi, thank you for your kind thoughts. I'd also really love to know how this could have been missed. My breeder said she was actually seen by two vets, so this seems crazy to me. I have always taken my babies to the vet as soon as I got them. This time I really felt comfortable with the breeeder and believed two more weeks wouldn't be an issue to wait. She was going to need her next round of shots, so I figured no big deal. Boy was I wrong. :(

When Paisley went to my vet I told her right away that she had mites but they were supposed to be gone. I told her Paisley had been digging her ears and I wasn't sure if that was true. Well, not only were the mites still there but so were these two infections. :( I hate to say this but after getting only one response from my breeder about this and now I haven't heard anything back from her in days. I really have to wonder if she knew about Paisley's ears all along. I truly hope I'm wrong because I thought highly of her. Regardless, I just want Paisley to feel better. Yes, I'm upset about these high bills I have now and lack of communication on my breeders part, but most importantly I just want Paisley to get better. Money is money but I can't replace her. Thanks again for thinking of her.

Dina, girl I know you are doing everything you can do to help little Paisley feel better fast.

I just feel so terrible that at this time where you should be so happy and excited, you have to be worried and upset about what your little girl is going through.

I cannot believe that the breeder has not kept in contact with you regarding all that is happening with Paisley. I know, if this was a puppy that I sold.. I would be so worried sick about her and about you, as it was her vet that missed this issue. I'm not trying to talk down about her, as I don't know her at all. It just seems there is a huge lack of caring on their end from the lack of communication and not even offering financial help if this goes further.

You are a great mom to Paisley, and I'm so happy that she is with you where she will be so well taken care of and nursed back to health!

Keep your chin up through all of this girl.. you are doing absolutely everything you can <3.

Poor little Paisley. At some point, the vets costs, the breeder's attitude, etc. all fades into the background and the only thing that matters is the baby recovering and being able to be her happy little self! I suppose it's kinda like a "lesson learned" about people and their agenda. It makes me angry when there's a suffering baby involved. My theory in these instances has always been ... "If they can live with it, I can certainly live without it"!! I know you will spend whatever it takes to help your baby, regardless. Sweet little Paisley has a wonderful, caring Mom and I just pray that all the medication and vet treatment results in her having a speedy recovery! Don't forget, and Toto will vouch for this, "the best medicine is Mom's lap!!" [that's what our vet tells us! :) ]

So how did the cleaning go? Better than earlier I hope!

Poor you. It's so hard to sit by when they are not well. But you really are doing all you can. It's going to be a little rough going 'til the meds kick in.

God bless both you and lil Paisley. Hope she is better very soon.

Aww, thanks for checking back on us. ;) I am very happy to say that Paisley's breeder has contacted me. It makes me feel alot better about things now. I truly believe that she cares for Paisley very much and is upset about this as much as I am. I honestly believe she is a good person and this was an unfortunate thing that happened. Regardless of everything, Paisley is the only thing that matters right now. Your absolutely correct about caring for her. I will do whatever it takes to get her healthy and happy. ;) These two weeks may drag on forever, but I just know in the end she will be better. YT prayers work and I know they will for us. ;) Paisley is sending more kisses to Toto. :D Thanks again for thinking of us.

Hi again, thanks for checking back up on us. ;) Well, I'm a little iffy about the other ear. I seem to be getting more stuff from it now. :confused: It's this yucky brown stuff like the really bad ear. :( I think I will have it checked tomorrow just to be safe. My vet left me a time to come in, so I'm pretty sure I'll be going. If the infection got worse, I'd rather deal with it now then two weeks from now. I'll be sure to update tomorrow on what happens. Thanks again for checking on her. ;)

Awww, sorry Kristen I just realized I skipped right over you. Thanks so much girl for everything and listening to me. We just love you and Paisley says "Tank you auntie kristen for caring about me." ;) Talk to you soon girl!!!

I hope the meds do their job and your baby is back to her happy little self!!! Sorry she is not feeling so well! HUGs to you and puppy licks from Kallie & Toby.

I just read this thread, I hope she is feeling better by the time you receive this post. Please let us know what the vet says tomorrow. Hope she gets better real soon.

OMG girl, I'm so sorry to hear about Paisley. I would have responded sooner but I had no idea this thread had been started:confused: Girl I feel your breeder should have been a little more responsible seeing how she knew Paisley had ear mites and for the infection to be that bad it had to be going on for a while:eek: But I know the main concern right now is Paisley health. I am sending you lots and lots of love, hugs, and prayers from my crew to yours:hands: :hands: :hands: :getwell: :hug: :hearts-en :angel2dl: . Please update me on how she is doing and I read that one of her ears is closed up due to the infection is that permanent damage :confused:

Awww...I am soo sorry about little Paisley. I just read this thread for the first time, I hope everything goes well and her ears get better soon. The poor little baby.:(

Oooh i am soo sorry your Baby has to suffer do badly, i am praying she gets better soon !

Awww...poor baby girl! We'll all be waiting on the update from the vet. THoughts and prayers in the meantime.
