  • @massagemom3:

    Wow….Ouch. the vet did offer to do the Barum study the next day. But when they saw her eat a treat off the floor, and they realized I could pay for another $800.00 they changed thier minds. (it was going to be more) Don't get me wrong, I am very grateful that she is better, but I'm sad to know that I might not be able to afford to rescue Sally, if she really is sick. I do save money but I do have 3 kids, and , let me say this with gusto..A LOT of medical bills that just came up. I don't want to think about that right now, again I'm just very glad she survived,and I'm going to work on why she ate the bedding to begin with. I put a camera out today and see that she is anxious when I leave her for more than 2 hours. :( By the way she still has a litlle inher. Hello.... Can you say Laxative!?

    I hear ya;it is hard. I have six kids – one in college, one getting ready to head to college, two in braces w/one more waiting his turn, and two with Type I Diabetes.... it adds up to me hoping like crazy to keep my three dogs and two cats healthy! I can scrape up what I need generally, but anything catastrophic would be.. well,catastrophic!

  • Thanks, I appreciate your reply. Keep plugging away! I'm praying for your family!

    Awww, thanks. :D I appreciate that. We do okay…you know, ya just keep plugging along! Life is GOOD!!

  • Just saw your post… ;) Glad the collars are working out! Poor little thing looks like she could use a few pounds! I hope she's continuing to improve!

  • BDawg- She is feeling much better, and doing well on the Nutro. She has been eating a good amount of food each meal. I think she is getting used to it. She was very thin when we got her. She does gain, but not much. Now that she is better, I hope she gains again.

    I agree with Buddys Pal… if they didn't do either urinalysis or xray, I'd get them done. If you have a sick dog and the vet just sort of says "oh well, blood work looks okay".. may be time for a new vet. Something is obviously wrong.

    I am so sorry, Tollers are such delightful little dogs. I've had the good fortune to meet several and always liked them. You and yours are in my thoughts/prayers.

    @agilebasenji: Zest! has about 2 extra pounds he could have. Jet the trying also has a few to spare. I wonder if I can send them via the USpost. Spencer says "send 'em on– Priority Mail, please!" Though if he keeps being a little platelicker, he may reclaim his "love handles." For now, he is still the Angelina Jolie of the dog world.
