My doggie is really sick :( ***update #2 Post 36***

[IWISHFORDISNEY]

Well some of you know I have been having trouble with my dog. Last Wednesday I had him on his walk as usual and he passed out in sorts on the way back home. I carried him the half mile home in tears. We went to the vet across the street since I am pretty new in town and she dx him with heart failure and an enlarged heart. On Saturday he was still having work of breathing using his abdominal muscles to breathe so I took him back. This vet has me more confused than ever. She stated it may not be cardiac but than said it could be. It was all just very worrisome. He is 13 and I am not sure what more I can do for him besides make him comfortable. I just lost my other dog before we moved so this is a real blow. He is my baby becasue he has had seizures since he was a pup and I have nursed him many times over the years. It is really hard on me right now. Sorry to lay this out there but we could use all the pixie dust you can spare. On top of all the other chaos in my life I really dont know how to handle this. Thanks for listening to my rant/vent. I dont have alot of people down here and you guys are like family to me.


******************************************************
Keep those prayers and pixie dust coming I see some improvement since yesterday. After 3 doses of the increased Lasix his breathing is a little better and his belly is less taunt. Plus he was chewing his bone and playing with his toys last night. Lets hope these are all good signs. I aprreciate everyone rooting for us!! You all are the best.

I can only share that I know first hand what your heart feels. I am an animal lover and have lost my dear friend too. That was some time ago. I now have a great dog named Bishop who we rescued from a shelter (the best feeling came from that) and I also have two kitties, Barney and Clyde.

Hang in there!

Nikki that is probably pretty far from me. I saw John and Christie at the vet when I was there Saturday so that made me feel pretty good they trused them.
