Interesting. I don't think my vet has ever mentioned discontinuing Tylocine before a fecal culture. We just did one, in fact. Reams of clostridium. Counts so high that the lab had trouble doing the toxin assay (negative). Dog is now on Metronidazole and Tylocine. Still not doing well, but at least now eating thanks to pred and Stanozolol. I understand about the scoping. Horrifically expensive and the prep is awful.

Maybe try some Tylocine? I haven't found Tylocine does much for food issues. Can help recovery from other things though. Like antibiotics used for UTIs. I know you know this, but it's different when you're living through it: a gut can take a long long time to settle after getting out of whack.

FWIW, Graham was a squat pee-er even before his back end started to weaken. Some boys just do. Sometimes Metacam helps backs, sometimes not. Didn't do a thing for Graham. I hope the new meds make Aston feel better.

I'm sorry Paul needed to lose his canines; that's major. I'm sure he'll feel better soon. The laser therapy may help his back a lot. Hope both boys are feeling well ASAP.

I'm sorry about Sierra. I have not been down to one dog, but I have lost several over the past few years. The grief of the survivors has varied a lot. In general, though, I'd say it has been easier for the dogs when I just continue as normally as possible.

Hope you're both feeling better soon.

What a lovely girl.

I'm so incredibly sorry. She should have stayed around to torture you forever. She was that special. And she was right where she belonged. Godspeed Hannah.

I'm so very sorry. She was as lovely as she was determined to go home with you. She picked right: she had a great life. Godspeed Jet.

I'm so very sorry. She was clearly a very special little girl. Godspeed sweetie.

Seniors are incredibly special. I wish she could have stayed longer. Happy Bridge Birthday Giggles.

Hot Rod was definitely a presence on GT. He left much too soon. I miss him too.

I hope the vet(s) can find a way to help your boy.

Glad the blood results are so good. Hoping she'll eat better soon.

I am so relieved to hear that Robin is doing better. I hope he continues to improve until he is 100% Robin. Soon.

I'm so sorry. I hope Betty heals quickly and well. for Jack too.

Very cool! I especially love how the second time she decides the drawer is not closed enough, and slams it--even without being asked. Spriet

Oh no!!! I am so very sorry. She had a wonderful retirement with you. I wish she'd been able to stay longer. Godspeed Treasure.

Pred can cause muscle wasting, so that might be part of what you're seeing. I hope that Lady's blood tests provide encouragement, and that everything else can be resolved as well.

Yoicks. I hope everyone heals OK.

Congratulations! The first pic is perfect given his name. It made me

Hope the luck is a nothing, and the UTI is under control ASAP.

What a heartbreaking and devastating loss. I am so very sorry. Godspeed Trooper.
