We picked up Missy from the emergency vet tonight and
brought her home only to take her to the emergency vet
in another city. She looked really bad ,still
drooling, breathing hard, depressed and would eat
nothing. We were sent home with pills for a dog with
an "extremely inflamed throat." I would not be so
cruel as to try to stick pills down a dog with a very
inflamed throat! Couldn't stick them in food. Tried to
mash them and put them in liquid and she promptly
threw up. At the 2nd vet they did a chest xray and it
seems her esophagus is enlarged and she now has
pneumonia. She is back on iv fluids and antibiotics,
antinausea and, thankfully, morphine. I pray that she
makes a turn around soon, but I am not real
optimistic. If they will let me treat her at home I
might be able to afford to save her. Pray that her
esophagus is symptom and not a cause, that they will
allow me to give injectables at home and that Missy
will not be joining Jackie at the Rainbow Bridge just
yet.
Missing my sweet girl tonight,
Gail
