New meds not good!

Poor Cuddles, the vet put her on new antibiotics for this Leptosporosis bacteria. Unfortunately, she keep throwing up because of it.  She barely eats or drinks, and now she throws up whatever we get into her.  Need to call vet tomorrow to see if they can give her a shot of antibiotics or something. She will get dehydrated at this rate, which is ( Read more... )

Sorry, I was very busy and now I'm trying to catch up.

Oh noes! Poor Cuddles! *pets & sends healing vibes* It makes me sad to hear there's no good news. I do hope she's feeling better now. Does she? Please say yes?

Decided to give her both pills in the afternoon so she will only be sick once a day. She is eating a bit every morning. My mom watches her all day while I am at work. She emails me with what she has been able to get Cuddles to eat. She will eat one fried egg with runny yolk, half a slice of buttered toast, and 2 jelly beans. *yeah, the jelly beans made me laugh too*. Still having issues with evening food. If she doesn't eat dinner, she will throw up the pills within 2 hours, which means they are not getting fully into her system. Tonight, I will have hubby try to get her to eat another egg and toast. Maybe that will be enough to coat her stomach. She won't eat what I give her because I am the big old meany that gives her pills and things that makes her sick. I decided early on that only one of us should give her pills, if we both did it, she might not take any food or treats from both of us, and then we would be in a worse predicament than we are in now.

Thanks for checking in and caring. I really appreciate it! ♥♥♥

It's good that your mom is there to help you and Cuddles while you're at work. And that's a great idea to give her both pills at once. She doesn't need to suffer twice a day then. Awww poor little puppy. Jelly beans!?! Well, at least she's eating something. I hope your plan works out and she takes dinner from your hubby.

*hugs* ♥ That's my nature. I care for my friends and their sorrows. I really, really hope Cuddles condition is going to be better soon.

She ate some baby food tonight, and some cucumbers *go figure, my dog loves her vegis and fruits*

She also has a sweet tooth, hense jelly beans. Now we are waiting to see if she can keep the food and pills down or if they revisit us! Won't know for at least 1 more hour, as it usually takes her 2 hours in the tummy to get ill.
Will try to keep you updated!

*hugs you back, my dear friend*

You mean baby food for little doggies, don't you? Cuddles is eating veggies and fruits. I never had a dog but I bet that's unusual. I hope the pills didn't come back yesterday.

That's nice to keep me updated, thanks. I would like to hear good news the next time.

No, I mean baby food for babies. Vet said it was easier for her sentitive stomach to digest. She kept all her food and pills down last night, but so far today has refused to eat anything. I have to give her the pills, but I know she will throw them up without food in her stomach.
Sorry, no good news. :(

Interesting. I didn't know that it's good for dogs under such circumstances as well. Yes, you have to get her taking the pills no matter what.
Yeah, no good news indeed. Then I hope your next update is way more promising. <3
