Guest Vinnie Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 Always something isn't it? Hope that Poppy is feeling even better in the morning to bring her home and hope that Buddy's lump is not anything serious. Hugs and prayers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bevd Posted July 6, 2009 Author Share Posted July 6, 2009 Firstly - Buddys lumpoid seems to be of the fatty variety so we're just going to keep an eye on it (phew). Poppy can come home this afternoon. Now then, someone sack me as a dog owner because when I got the diagnosis (months ago) of larangeal paralysis, what I actually meant to take on board was tracheal collapse instead The two conditions are seperate. This is tracheal collapse (link includes a surgical photo part way down the page) http://vetsurgerycentral.com/tracheal_collapse.htm So anyway, just to clarify matters and see if any more light can be shed, Poppy is going to have a mild sedative and both vets are going to have another look down her throat. She'll be able to come home later this afternoon When we were there with Bud this morning, I went down to the 'ward' to see Poppy and she was sulking when I spoke to her I told her that I'll be back later to collect her and she snorted and went back to sleep.

Bevd Posted July 6, 2009 Author Share Posted July 6, 2009 Poppy is now back at home and is very delighted to be here. At least I think she is. It's hard to tell as she is not actually speaking to me She ate a small chocolate brownie (as did everyone else) as a homecoming celebration (I got them for me in Co-op near the vets but they were vile so I donated them to the dogs) and then she had a big drink, did a wee and went to bed. She's had a little bit of dinner but I think she might be a bit overwhelmed and not in the mood for eating dinner (or maybe she's holding out for another brownie...) so I'll offer it to her again later this evening. The vets found that her larynx are fine and it's definately her trachea which is problematic. However, she's much better than she was when she went into the vets on Saturday and she's come home with antibiotics to finish and some of the bronchiodilator which she was started on over the weekend (Millophyline). She'll be checked again on Saturday afternoon. Thank you ALL for your kind thoughts and good wishes for Poppy.
