    I’ve had medium size dogs all my life. Never had a pickiness problem with any of those dogs. Then I got a small breed puppy. What a mistake. What finally got through to me was Dr Sammy laughing at me. Trained. Just like my ex husband had me trained. The truth hurts. However, I take comfort in the fact that over 25,000 people were looking for help with this heart wrenching problem. So I’m not the only one. I took this puppy into my home for comfort while caring for my elderly father who was descending into dementia. I did not know about all the issues with little dogs. Silly me. We are on day 3 of discarding the food after an hour, and no other food available.

  • @suewilliams5583
    @suewilliams5583 2 місяці тому

    Thank you for not chuckling at the dog owner for getting trained. I am finding out the hard way that small breeds are not for everyone. Problem is, as humans get older, we may think we can’t physically handle a bigger dog anymore. I never ever had a dog that would not eat. That is, until I fell victim to a cute little dog.

    I am the weak link. He’s got me so trained and I get so stressed that I just up the ante and give him something else that’s better. He won’t eat his prescription food and so I kept changing it. Then he was getting all sorts of tummy problems. Ran him through a load of tests and all came back unremarkable. So the vet told me that I need to put the food down, wait 10 mins, then take it away. No treats, no nothing until the next feeding. This is sooooo hard to do but I promise I will stay consistent this time. I can do this!

    More info about what you mean when you say a pup will “Go down for the day” until they have another rupture or leak…. The info you give is useful more for veternarian techs or whatever and not so much for pup owners..who need more info about symptoms and tests no matter you did say they present variably and often no warning. Also for those on a budget could use ideas from a profession about what to start with …testing diagnostic strategies.

She acted completely normal in the morning and an hour later she couldn’t stand and struggling to breath. Rushed her to the hospital and was told they ruptured and she was hemorrhaging and internally bleeding, there is nothing they can do. She had surgery 2x in the last 2 years to remove cancerous masses but she showed no signs something was wrong til it was to late.

    Just had to put our 10 year old goldendoodle down due to HSA two days ago. First presented with him collapsing inside the house and loss of bowl control as a result. He never pooped in the house, so we knew it was serious. Trip to the vet er and ultrasound done as well as abdominal needle aspiration. Ultrasound showed small lesions on his liver that were no concern to the vet, but there were areas on his spleen that were more suspect. Aspiration showed no blood in his abdomen. An anaphylactic reaction to something was in the differential diagnosis as well as Addisons disease or a tumor. Ultrasound showed a halo around his gallbladder, which is an indicator of addisons. Another test, which eludes me, ruled out addisons. So the feeling was it was anaphylaxis. He spent three days in the hospital. A course of steroids and antibiotics were administered. He improved, and was fine for two months. He had gotten his energy back close to 80% I would say, and his appetite returned. He had a short lived recurrence of lethargy for which we took him in to our local vet. He had an ACTP test that came back “equivocal “ for addisons. He was put on 10mg of daily steroids and seemed to be on an even keel for a couple weeks. Then he had another episode where he was very lethargic, hung his head while lying down, and would let out a moan occasionally. Another trip to the er, as it was a Sunday evening, and this time ultrasound showed fluid in his abdomen and blood on aspiration. Tumor on his spleen that ruptured was diagnosed. Splenectomy was discussed, but we were given a poor prognosis with possibility of survival of 6 months projected. We decided to let Cooper go. Very, very sad day.

      So sorry for your loss my friend. I unfortunately can relate firsthand as we just went through this HSA within the last 24hrs with our 10 yr old golden boy. Totally unexpected and sudden out of nowhere. He was fine and acting normal full of energy and 24 hrs later he’s gone. Although it hurts beyond words, I know he’s not suffering and we provided home with the best life any dog could ever want and then some. He knows that as do we and we can live with knowing we did him a favor in his unfortunate situation and let him go peacefully. Thoughts and prayers are with you and yours. 🐾

    My mini dachshund is picky as hell! I literally have 7 dry foods down right now and she won't touch a thing. Her wet food, she will go truth stages. One kind one week, another kind the next week, etc etc.... 99% of treats she despises. Honestly sometimes she's a nightmare at food time. Kind of at my wits end.... she typically will eat at least once per day, if in lucky, and that takes a lot of manipulations on my part. She seems super normal. Poops normal, pees normal.... Just would love it if she would stick to one type of food. Tried farmers, won't eat it btw.... As i said, she acts super normal. Not losing weight.... She's just a brat at meal time.... Really need some insight from someone....
