Hubcitypam Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 (edited) In my heart I think our time together now is very short. He was not doing well at all today and we have an 11:15 appointment in the morning. I'm going to get a full blood panel to check his kidneys and such. Anything else I should do? Poodle -- my buddy -- my wing man -- and the guy who saw me thru my darkest days. You can't be leaving me but I have laid awake crying the last two nights because I think that is what is coming very soon. I hope so much that I am wrong....

tamborine Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 Oh Pam I hope you're wrong. See what the dr. says - renal failure can be treated, if that's what it is. Maybe he just needs his insulin adjusted. I'll be thinking of you guys...

JohnF Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 That is just so sad. Losing a beloved 'heart dog' is the worst and nobody knows them better than we do. Yes, have heart, kidney and liver function checked, get the vet to be definite about whether the dog is in any pain. A good vet will confirm that time is very short and tell you what you should be looking for to indicate that enough is enough. If it is a newly diagnosed kidney problem visit http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/K9KIDNEYS/ because sometimes you really can go that extra mile and a half and get quite a lot of additional quality of life months to share.
