Guest Energy11 Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Good Day All! DH's Cari (she tolerates me , has been limping on her left foreleg, intermittently for about four weeks. I am treating her with Deramaxx, 37.5 mg daily, which seems to help. She does this off and on, but has all the signs of Osteo DH just left for the vet to either confirm or refute my suspicions. She is a very finicky eater, but a healthy girl. She is FULL of live and insists on running! She and DH would love your prayers and good thoughts! If she has Osteo, we do only palliative care. If it is arthritis, we will be very grateful. Cari and my other four, just returned from a two week trip to the beach. This will be their last trip, because of their advancing ages. Thank you!

Guest Energy11 Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 She is a little out of it, right now. She is resting in the spare room, and her temp and blood pressures are normal. The vet used IV Propofol for her, which is a good choice, in my opinion. Sometimes, I think the sedation is the hardest thing for this breed! She FINALLY has sort nails, too! ) She is a BEAST to do her nails! We love you for your good thougts and good wishes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My blog about grief The reality is that you will grieve forever. You will not get over the loss of a loved one; you will learn to live with it. You will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again but you will never be the same. Nor should you be the same, nor would you want to. ― Elisabeth Kübler-Ross Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Energy11 Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Hello again! DH and Cari just want to thank you for all of your good thoughts and prayers! Little Cari isn't herself today. She still has glazed/slanted eyes, a slightly lolled tongue, and a slight drool. I think she definitely had an adverse reaction to either the Torb or Propofol. She is up, eating, pooping, peeing, etc., but just really isn't herself. Just like people, every one of these dogs can have a different reaction to sedation, especially at advanced ages. Thanks again! Dee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest FreddyGirl Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Another vote for Ruffwear. I used it with Dude after his amp and it works very well. Plus, it's adjustable so you can fit it just right for your pup. Easy on and off too. Very well made and sturdy. Dee, THANK GOD it is nothing serious. HUGS to all of you.
