All is done! She is under supervision until tonight. But they said she did well. She did get atropine. She did scream on them too. I warned them she would. :P I really like the vet! She hates to see dogs in any pain and does all she can to reduce or eliminate discomfort/pain. For that, Shanti and I are grateful!

 

They did the joint taps. The fluid in her right leg was very yellow and cloudy. We should have the results on that in about a week. Right now she is on some nice pain killers.

 

I can't wait to pick her up!!!! She and I will be snuggling I am sure. :)

She is home and MAD AT ME! She won't even look at me. She was not thrilled to see me when I picked her up. She is really knocked out. I have her tucked into her bed in the family room (on tile) so if she gets sick it is easy clean up. Guess I will be sleeping on the couch tonight. Poor baby. She is really gonna hate me in 2 weeks when we go for the next shot.

She scared me to death last night. I woke up and checked on her and she was on the tile, mouth open, eyes gazed, chilled and what looked like no movement. I thought she died on me! Rattled her a bit and she moved a little. So I laid on the tile with her for a long time. About 4am she got up and moved beds. A good sign!

 

This morning she is more alert, but still out of it. She is on a food strike and I know she has to be hungry. She has not eaten in 36 hours. She is drinking water though. Today she and I are just hanging out in a warm house. I am hoping she perks up more this afternoon. She at least raises her head and foot for me when I am near. She would not even look at me yesterday. I think we are on the mend.

 

Boy is she going to hate me all over again in 2 weeks!

Good she's eating. You may want to take her to the vet's office, walk in, give her a treat and walk back out again a few times in the next few weeks so that she doesn't become afraid of it :)

Poor sweetie, hope she feels better soon. I am sure she doesn't hate you... probably just feeling very under the weather. She knows her mom loves her :)
