Not so merry
Our dog, Kiya, the English Pointer, has eaten nothing for the past five days. Three days ago I took
her to the vet for lack of appetite, lethargy, and shivering. Her temp was 104.3, not exceedingly high, but high. Her blood tests showed a higher than normal white cell count indicating an infection. They prescribed antibiotics and pain medication. The next day her temp was 105.2, seriously high. My vet said they could do no more, take her to emergency hospital. They kept her overnight, did ultrasound and other tests, but could not find the problem. She still wouldn't eat. That was day five without eating. But, her temp was down to 102. Good sign. They could find nothing with their tests. Total spent - right at $2000 for vet tests which showed nothing. We brought her home. She wouldn't eat anything...dry food, wet food, chicken, cat food...nothing. She drinks a lot of water though. Last night was up and down with her. Drinking water and going out to pee. Don't know what to do today. Will give her the antibiotics and pain pills and hope. Tough. |
