  1. I bought a memory foam fold up mattress to sleep on when I needed to stay in the living room with old/sick dogs. You may not want to make that investment, but places like Costco and Walmart have memory foam mattress toppers for pretty cheap that make sleeping on the floor a LOT more comfortable! I am glad he is feeling a little better.
  2. Hope the vet has some more ideas. Have you consulted Peg? As long as she doesn’t seem to be in pain, that is the most important thing right now.
  3. Happy gotcha day Doolin! You sure landed in the right place
  4. Now you have a teenager in the house!
  5. I actually don’t mind spiders of the non venomous variety, but Not On My Pillow!
  6. it looks like the fenced yard is bigger than the house (as it should be!)
  7. None of my dogs ever had a bad reaction to gabapentin, I haven’t either, but the kittens I was fostering last year got some when they came home from their spay/neuter and one of them was stoned out of her little furry mind for hours. You just never know until you try. Has she been tried on meloxicam? Old school, but I like it because the dosage can be precise to their weight. But some dogs don’t do well on it.
  8. I am sorry she didn’t get better news but at least this sounds manageable. I hope she can be comfortable.
  9. All of my seniors have quit eating breakfast at some point, so we just switch to lunch and dinner. I get it, I don’t eat until I have been up for a couple of hours at least It is always worrying when they change their eating habits though.
  10. Let me confuse things further for you I had to find a new vet last year because the one I had been seeing decided to focus on a speciality practice and not do “regular” vet stuff. She was (is) a mobile vet who comes to the house, I really liked that. I wanted to try a couple of the small practices near me as I like the more personal contact you get, but either one was accepting new clients so be aware of that possible problem. The large multi vet clinic was accepting new clients and they were fine, but I didn’t feel it was very personal. I ended up finding another mobile vet and so far I am very happy with them. Good luck!
  11. You were lucky to have her and she was lucky to have you
