2020 just keeps on giving. Our tiny rat terrier that has been living with my son since Covid started, died yesterday. She was 15 1/2 with heart issues, so we knew it was coming (not quite that soon), but it was still a shock. We are grateful she went peacefully in her kennel (her choice, she loved her kennel and napped in it often) and that we didn't have to make the choice for her, but still sad.
And our 2 1/2 year old dog that you may remember my stress earlier this year, as he was diagnosed with epilepsy is having seizures again. The first med worked great, but almost killed him. the 2nd med we hoped would work, and it did for bit, then he had another in early October. Ok, one every 3 months is ok. Then less than 3 weeks later he had another. So they doubled his dose (at $100 a month) thinking that would work. This morning he woke me up having another, only 2 weeks and 2 1/2 days since the last, on the double dose. They had always been in the middle of the night also, until these last two, so now we panic all day every day. Not sure what the next step is to try to control, but if we can't, it's not good. We cannot lose him, we waited so long for him, he's our special baby. What a crappy 18 hours.
Our 3rd dog, knock on wood, is all ok.
