carronstar Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 Only good thoughts for Roscoe. The meds will clear out the nasties and he will be back to himself in no time. Nothing else is remotely acceptable! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreyKarma Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 Good thoughts for you and Roscoe. Hopefully it will be just a non-specific Uveitis and the meds will clear it up. His "zoning out" may have been the begining of this if his eyes were hurting. I remember when you got him, but can not remember where he came from....was a tick-borne disease panel ever done?

DevilDog Posted March 18, 2010 Author Share Posted March 18, 2010 ok, need a little advice here. Roscoe is on 2 different eye drops and doxycycline and vetprofen. The pills need to be taken w food. About 45 minutes ago I gave roscoe his last vetprofen for the night with 2 cookies. About 15ish minutes later he started gagging.. nothing came up, but now he has hiccups (or gags.. i dont know if theyre hiccups) and he's restless. He will not sleep. He's always passed out at this point of the night but he keeps getting up wandering. I brought him out (after the 'hiccups' and a mean fart-which he never farts) I brought him outside. He ate some grass which he's never done. He seems a bit better now, but still restless and a little hiccuppy. Did i not give him enough food w that pill and he got an upset tummy? It's just frazzling me because i dont know whats wrong or what he wants... *wahhhhhhhhhh* Quote Lisa with Finnegan (Nina's Fire Fly) and Sage (Gil's Selma).

inugrey Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 vetprofin is the generic rimadyl, right? I am not a quick to e-vet person so I think if he doesn't seem to be in too much distress except for the digestive system then I'd just give a pepto. Then watch him carefully for any signs of distress but as I read it right now I would think he just has an upset stomach.

DevilDog Posted March 18, 2010 Author Share Posted March 18, 2010 Roscoe seems fine this morning. I figured I didnt give him enough food with that pill last night and he felt sick. Poor thing.. Mommy's mistake! This morning he got his pills with a full breakfast and peanut butter! I found the easiest way in the world to give him a pill is to put a glob of pb on a spoon, push the pill into the pb, and he just gobbles it all down. Easy peasy. But otherwise he seemed relatively normal this morning. I'm going home for lunch to check on him and give him more eye drops. I really hope this course of meds works for him and the blood work comes back with something 'simple'.. and we can be done with this. Why don't we have a *sigh* emoti?
