LadyGrey Posted January 12, 2013 Author Share Posted January 12, 2013 (edited) E-vet doctor just called me to update us on Bella's condition. Bella finally urinated a small amount so she could do a urinalysis. She definitely has a bladder infection but does not know if she has a kidney infection. She will do a culture to see if there is a kidney infecction. Not producing much urine at all eventhough her urine is dilute. We will go to the e-vet around 5 pm today as she said after those blood tests, she will have a much more definitive outlook on Bella's condition. Still not eating. I plan on going in a little while to see her and be with her. I am sure they will let me back there to see her.

JJNg Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Any updates? Is the vet concerned about how little urine she is producing? Typical cases of kidney disease/failure produce large amounts of urine. It is only in more severe, advanced cases of kidney failure (usually acute, and not chronic) that we see little to no urine being produced, and this is a very serious condition. It needs to be treated aggressively with medications to try to get urine production going again, and even then, prognosis is often not very good, especially if an underlying cause can't be found.

LadyGrey Posted January 13, 2013 Author Share Posted January 13, 2013 (edited) Thank you all for your kind thoughts and prayers. When we arrived at the e-vet, Bella was in much worse condition. Her blood count went significantly worse. She looked so bad and her breathing was a little strained. I arrived at 3pm and by 4pm she crossed over to the Rainbow Bridge. This was a sudden and unexpected sickness and death. The vet said that kidney failure was due to a very bad case of Leptopirosis. She most likely got it from deer urine around our yard as we have many deer cross over our yard and up and down our driveway. Sometimes Bella ate grass and sniffed areas where the deer pooped and urinated to mark her territory. She may have got some in her nose or mouth. By the time she came to the e-vet, her condition was almost irreversible according to both vets and the internal medicine vet. They all worked very nicely with us and treated us so good. She was snatched away from me as she was my real heart dog. She was the girl who bonded with me like no other Greyhound I ever had. I love you so much my sweet Bella. I will post in Remembrance tomorrow. My sweet baby, I am lost without you. You always stood by me and felt my pain and my happiness. You were my soul mate. My beautiful girl. My right arm is gone.
