What the… knee?

Originally posted 2019-08-30 07:35:48. Ughh… what’s the deal with knees in this house?!  Chewy’s other leg/knee had something shift yesterday. I think it’s possibly the metal pin in there because it is common for the pins to dislodge. His other leg/knee did the same thing just pushed way out,almost pushing through the skin. Since it’s not pushing through the skin and he is still walking semi-normal we have an appointment Tuesday. Let’s hope it stays…

Can’t sleep

I can’t sleep. I’m actually scared to go to sleep. I took Chewy to get an ultrasound today. They think he has cancer. The report comes back as early as tomorrow. I pray to the Lord above that it’s not. To hear that word again I literally had a flashback from the last time my momma was told she had cancer again. I literally had that same feelings. Chewy synced to me. He follows me…

Canned?

Chewy still having issues. He is being extremely picky where his food is concerned. I cooked him some beef liver and he was eating it at first. Then yesterday I took a poop sample to the doc office for them to check out. I told them he still wasn’t eating. They gave me more nausea meds for himbas well as some food that is designed for dogs that they need to get food in them.…

What day is it?

Chewy is still off and on about eating. It almost seems like his stomach hurts and he only eats when he gets hungry hungry. The vet’s office called me yesterday and told me his labs had come back. He is mildly anemic but they aren’t sure why yet. The urine hasn’t come back yet so maybe that will give some answers. He has a sedated xray scheduled for Monday morning. So I am going to…

What the hell just happened?

Originally posted 2020-09-25 16:33:14. Yeah that’s what we said after last week. For certain reasons I have to leave some info out. Ok, so you know we had 2 extra pups we recently found as strays. Well, last Monday I received a message with a screenshot of a post on a local community facebook page. It was by a young lady stating that their dogs had gotten loose about 2 and half weeks prior to…

Unexpected

Originally posted 2020-09-12 17:36:51. Late last night Leia went out to use the bathroom. On her way back in something happened. As she walked in the house further she spilled more blood. She bled the rest of the night while my husband and I took turns watching her. I called an emergency veterinary clinic but the person I spoke with didn’t exactly give me that comforting feeling everything would be ok. So first thing this…

What to do about Saorise

Originally posted 2019-06-27 17:50:44. Well… it’s not a good report. I met the veterinarian at his office and they handed me a computer disc. Which I knew what that meant. His first words were, it’s not good. We kind of already prepared ourselves for that. He is referring her to the same orthopedic surgeon that did Chewy’s hind legs. This appointment is kind of a second opinion as he would like to see if there…

Spayed and confused

Originally posted 2020-09-05 01:57:07. I got a call around 9:30 am Friday morning. The veterinarian’s office wanted to see if Leia (the female stray) had eaten anything yet. She hadn’t eaten yet. We were on the cancelation waitlist for her to be spayed. They asked if I wanted to bring her in as they had a cancelation. She is now home and been spayed. Thankfully she wasn’t pregnant but the veterinarian believes she had a…
