It does sound like more than a muscle pull, I think trying pred is worth a shot. I can't remember, did you try acupuncture? Is that a possibility where you are? When Sugar was almost 12, she started having spinal issues and almost couldn't walk (some days she could barly stand). A shot of pred got her temporary relief, and the acupuncture brought her back to about 90% mobility (with no more pred). Adequan shots also helped after she got going again.

I think Fletcher got his eating feral cat poop the little buggers are insidious! I hope Rocket starts to feel better soon.

Fletcher had it a few years ago, a round of panacur cleared it up. I don't remember for sure, but I think it took at least two tests fo it to show up. Nasty stuff >( One thing that has really helped Fletcher's tummy gurgles is about a tsp of Manuka honey

I am so sorry a better way to go for him, but a terrible shock for you

I am so sorry

Fletcher was on Metacam for years, and did fine. When I thought it was starting to be less effective, we switched to Rimadyl, which has also been fine. Prevacox was awful for him. Gave him runny poop, gurgly tummy, and made him very restless. He does have IBD, so runny poop/gurgly tummy are pretty normal for thing that don't agree.

I am so sorry she WAS loved, and clearly, she knew it

I have never syringe fed a dog, only a rabbit (yeah, that was fun!) but kibble mixed with water or chicken broth until mushy is good, or plain baby food. A/D seems to work for a lot of people, although I have never used it. For non-syringe feeding, baby food straight, or thinned with goat's milk (goat's milk is much easier to digest than cow), scrambled eggs. I might try some Ensure, just to see if she'll take it.

I am so sorry that is a beautiful picture of him

hope she is better in the morning!

excellent news!

she is absolutely adorable!

it is so hard to see them suffer and not be able to fix it right away

:yay

I've never used one of those pill guns, but I have heard from others that they work when all the "hiding" fails.

I wish you had been able to have more time with her

I am sorry to hear this I also would recommend you try acupuncture.

I am so sorry

I am so sorry I hate that quiet, empty feeling in the house
