gryhndsr4us Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 One thing I found would work with Clark when he didn't want to eat was McDonalds hamburgers. If I hand fed him small pieces I could usually get two or three into him. Saying prayers for your pup.

Remolacha Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 When Sugar wouldn't eat, I got her to take some Ensure (she didn't like the generic!), sometimes mixed with tuna. Disgusting, but it got some calories in her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hubcitypam Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Jay - When Rex was sick I had to use lots of things to prime his pump, so to speak. It was something different every day it seemed...liverwurst, hot dogs, velveeta, canned food, dried liver, chicken, etc. The one thing that stuck out in retrospect was if I could just get him to eat a few bites of whatever his amuse boche de jour happened to be he would most often go on to canned and often even kibble. I just sat on that futon a lot of nights at 2 a.m. trying lots of things until he bit. You maybe don't need a ton of a ton of things around if you just get him started...thinking of you and Cody.

DaisyDoodle Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Oh, Jay, I'm so sorry. This sucks, but can possibly be managed, depending on the stage and type. My CoCo lived more than two years after her diagnosis, and passed cancer free from iatrogenic Cushings because of my misuse of prednisone. There are several protocols for lymphoma, and can differ in expense, how aggressive the treatment is (curative vs controlling the disease), etc. I'm not UTD on what is considered the best protocol in use today (CoCo died in 2004), but Dr. Couto's group certainly can point you in the right direction.

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...
