  1. Bobbi, never a day passes where I don't think of her. I miss her everyday.
  2. Sounds right. Torbutrol. I did not like the effects on her. She peed herself on the bed. She could not get up. Just because she doesn't know she is 12.5 doesn't mean her body doesn't know. Its12.5. She is better this morning and has been out 2x
  3. So, Rich picked her up and she walked to car, tech put her in back seat and we could not get her up to get her in the house! She was in Rich's convertible so we put the top down and angled ourselves to carry her out. She knuckled on both legs so he had to carry her into the house. We placed her on a bed in the den where she continues to sleep. I called the vet and she said they gave her just a little bit of sedative (starts with a T) I have forgotten already- the dose they normally give to a puppy. I have never seen her this out of it.zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
  4. Elsie did very well. They had to give her a little sedation but not a general. Vet said it was encapsulated which was good and not the way mast cell usually presents itself but she sent it out just to be sure. Elsie was standing shortly after surgery to go pee pee but when I came to get her at 2 she was sleeping and did not want to get up. I just called and they said she was demanding to go home. Foot stomping and everything. Since it's on Rich's way home from work, he will get her.Thanks for the good wishes for my special broodie.Next will be Chloe's dental. I normally don't get concerned about the dentals, etc but Chloe has "something" going on since she is 2 with head tremors which has not actually been diagnosed as anything other than "head tremors" as of now. She is on 1/2 baby aspirin 1 x a day for the past 3 months and has had 2 head tremors in the last week.
  5. I kinda figured, but I wanted to check anyway... this is what I found online. Additional Warnings When Using Aspirin For Your Dog Never use more than one NSAID (including aspirin) at the same time. Do not combine NSAIDs with any other corticosteroids. Aspirin should be stopped at least one week before any surgery. Do not give over-the-counter aspirin made for human consumption to your dogs. UT OH, I am !!! (1/2 St Joseph Aspirin) b
  6. I am not anxious. Really! I just need to know how long do most suggest waiting on surgery after aspirin and yeah, some prayers are always helpful!
  7. Elsie who is 12 years, 5 months (and has no clue she is a day over 3) has had a growth on her leg that we have been "watching" for a few months. It's changed a bit and my vet just wants to make sure it's not mast cell. She didn't seem to concerned even if it were so I am not going to get myself crazy unless I have to. (OK, anymore crazier thatn I already am) Chloe was suppossed to be going for her dental. She is 7. This is her first one since she is 2. BUT I realized tonight that I had not stopped her baby aspirn ((head tremors that may be mini strokes) so I cancelled. In the event she needs to have an extraction, I just didn't feel comfortable not having stopped the aspirin. With humans it's 5-7 days to stop blood thiinners days in optimal conditions, what abouit our hounds?
  8. How terrible. So young. I am so sorry. No, unfortunately, I believe when it's over, it's over.
  9. That is truly greyt, We have the stuff but I have not used it as much as I should. Teddy had it hulled this past Saturday. Did you use the acid/cream after it was hulled out too?

    Eliza, I am so sorry. I am so glad I got to meet your sweet girl @ gig.
  15. You're lucky people will pull in a dog on a long leash for you. I always hear "Oh, my dog is friendly. He just wants to make friends. Then I say "I'm sure that's true, but will you please pull him in?" I get nasty looks and they finally pull the dog in. And if you have tried to give warning nicely and they are still being stupid it is then time to say. "Mine's not friendly with non greyhounds and sees pups like yours as hor doevers." That might get them to stay away. My Teddy is not other breed friendly. At all. "
  16. Interesting that you said this because of the 5 I had last year the only 2 that did have fleas were my raw eaters.
  17. Of my 6, Beau, Ollie and Ponch have chicken sensitivities. Duck is fine for them.
  18. Nancy, She sounds like she was one in a gizillion. Condolences to you for the loss of your best friend, and Kathy's family,
  19. Also want to add that she did not have the patch. Deramaxx, tramadol antiiotics and Valium.
  20. No, he was probably in pain. What happened to cause this? Another dog?
