If everything else is ruled out and it is anxiety, that medication might not help. Not all medications help that same in every dog and a switch - tapered down and under the direction of your vet - might also help. You could also try a couple drops of rescue remedy to see if it can help take the edge off. We have a whippet with anxiety/SA issues and clomicalm did nothing for him. He takes prozac instead and that changed his whole life. Hang in there!

I am so very sorry for your loss. The greatest gift brings the most pain for those left behind. We, too, have experienced the same reaction while helping a beloved pet cross the bridge. You know it's best, but that makes it so very much harder. May time bring you peace and memories bring you comfort. Our heart aches for you and yours.

We will be thinking gentle thoughts for Romeo and your family today. May his passing be peaceful and your beautiful memories bring you comfort.

I am so sorry for such an enexpected and sudden loss. She is absolutely gorgeous. May your memories bring you comfort. Hugs to all.

Obviously sending good thoughts that it is nothing! However, our whippet was diagnosed with dermal hemaniosarcoma almost 2 years ago. Took 2 procedures, but got clean margins and he hasn't had a recurrence since.

I am so sorry for your loss.

Welcome from Maryland! Paws crossed here, too.

I am so very sorry for your loss. Godspeed Bodhi

What a beautiful soul and a perfect fit. She obviously tried out different families until she found yours! May your wonderful memories bring you peace and comfort.

I an so sorry. The greatest gift, the freedome from pain, is the hardest to give. May you find peace knowing he is running free.

I am so sorry. She sounds like such a special girl. May time bring you peace and comfort.

I am so sorry. Hugs to you and the girls.

I am so very sorry. It is never long enough. I have always enjoyed reading your posts and seeing pictures of your beautiful girls. My thoughts and prayers are with you and yours.

I am so very sorry. I am glad that his passing was peaceful and may your wonderful memories bring you comfort. Cindy

But, I will miss the little toes flopping out of their mouths! Thanks for the tip! We tried his Sin Chews - the dogs loved them, but the grease (?) got everywhere. We will stay with the bully sticks.

I also get my bulk meat from Peter! He does look a little shady! I drive to Silver Spring to a CVS parking lot right off the beltway on Saturday mornings to pick up my order. He is actually very helpful and feeds his own dogs raw. My husband thought the whole thing was strange so he has come with me and the last time he got the order himself. I usually e-mail him and ask what is a good deal and order some of that, as well. I have also tried the international market near me, but the prices are pretty steep. I suck it up for the chicken feet though.

Hugs to you and scritches for Lewis. I will be thinking of you and wish for a peaceful passing with dignity and grace.

No suggestions, just good thoughts. I have a whippet with psychogenic polydipsia - no fun! He doesn't behave that way all the time, but has periods of time when he drinks excessively.

Ihave been following and am so very sorry. He was a special boy. May you find peace and comfort at this time.

I buy most of my stuff in bulk. I feed three greys, 1 whippet and two cats snack on their favorite items. I stocked up 5 weeks ago and paid 180.00. I still have 15 pounds of chicken backs left. However, I buy somethings every 8 months, purchase from the grocery store and receive things, like venison, from friends during hunting season, so it is kind of hard to check. However, I would think 25 -50 per month per dog works. I have been feeding that diet for 3 years and have only had one dental done during that time. That dental was a year ago and his teeth still look good. I do brush their teeth and use the Pet Gel (exact name forgotten) as well. As for supplements, I add fish oil capsules and SynoviG3 to their daily diet (3 are 8 YO and over), b-complex vitamin a couple times a week and vitamin 3 for the whippet because his urine pH is off and that placates my vet. I do add kelp when I have it, too.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and yours. The greatest gift, freedom from pain, is the hardest to give.

I am so very sorry for your loss. Over time, may your wonderful memories bring you peace.

I have been following your threads and am so sorry to hear this. My heart goes out to you and yours. May he find the peace and dignity that he so deserves and may you find the strength to give him the hardest gift of all.

What a beautiful tribute for a beautiful soul. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this time.

I am so so sorry to read this. I have been folllowing your threads for quite some time and feel that I have lost a member of my own pack. While it is an honor to release a beloved grey from physical pain, our pain can be so overwhelming, but is a small price to pay for the love and joy we have received from them while they shared our lives. I hope that in time, you and your family find peace. Cindy
