What a day!!

Well I'm not impressed with my 40th birthday present from my dogs

I had an appointment this evening for Kerrie to do a glaucoma test, which was positive, she still has sight but the eye is in a bad way. She also has pretty bad fluid on the lungs and is now on diuretics.
I get home to find my jazz really off colour, she refused dinner or any treats and moped around on her walk, then she poo'd and it was pure blood:eek:

She is now down in the vets on a drip and we have no idea what's wrong with her.

I am devastated for both of them:o

Ahh bugger so sorry to hear. Hope they're OK in the long run.

I'm really sorry to hear that. I hope the news from the vets is better in the morning.

That's a horrible thing to come home to,it such a shock.
My dog had something similar,we got her from a shelter,only had her a couple of days when in the space of a couple of hours she went from a happy cheerful little puppy to one that couldnt walk,was throwing up and pooing blood.
Rushed her to the vet,she was there three or four days,nerve wracking.
The vet was great though and kept ringing me to let me know how things were.
Thankfully puppy made a complete recovery and is chilled out on the sofa as i type .
Sending good thoughts your way,hope you get good news from your vet soon.

are you serious

Oh no!

When I got Buddy after his first night home he was fine, into his first day/morning his mood changed, same ass poor jazz, his poo was just blood, I was so worried for him. Two days later he came out of the vets bouncing and not a bother on him!! They put it down to some kind of gastro bug which turned his stomach and made him have such a bad reaction to something. It hasn't happened again though thank god.

Hope all goes well!

Thanks everyone,
In my head I know she'll be fine and she's in the right place I'm just a worried mammy I think.
I also have the guilt and worry that she's all alone in the vet and she's such a social little dog

Ahhh you poor thing! Give Jazz a big auld kiss for me.

I will as soon as I get her home:)

I'm sure she'll be back climbing all over us and giving out to little dude for no reason by Saturday :rolleyes:

Firstly Happy Birthday!!!!

Second, I hope both are ok, also had a dog get some bug years ago and they pooped blood and got very sick, but as others said he got better very quick and lived a long and happy life.
Fingers crossed.x

Thank you everyone for the positive stories, this is exactly what I needed

Jazz is the baby of my gang and probably the one I am closest to, usually by now I am curled up asleep, but I don't want to go to bed as my little hot water bottle isn't here

JustAThought

What a terrible birthday. I hope jazz is back in top form soon & all the rest of the crazy gang too.

JustAThought

( & Happy Birthday ! Hopefully you .& the dogs will have a much better year than the first few days of it )

My aunts dog was in the vets for a week on a drip about 3 months ago, seems like exactly the same thing, they never did figure out what it was and put it down to some sort of weird intestinal bug, he was right as rain though, it just seemed to run it's course.

Happy Birthday BTJ

As above I have heard of more than one dog with similar symptoms and it turns out ot be a bug. A bit if TLC and she'll be flying again.

There is nothing you can do right now so why not pour yourself a birthday drink and try put your feet up. It'll help you sleep and you can toast Jazz' health!

Inexile

Happy Birthday.

Hope your baby will be home soon.

Hope you get good news today

Happy birthday for yesterday! I hope poor Jazz is feeling better today. There's a bug going around apparently - a few dogs in our park had it.

belongtojazz

it's looking good that she'll be home today

She was ill overnight but thankfully no sign of any blood, they have had her out a few times today and she has eaten her breakfast. So just have to make sure she doesn't vomit again and she can come home

No idea what caused it, they think she probably just picked up a bug, but fingers crossed I'll have her running riot around the house this evening

ISDW

Great news.

Finally I can wish you Happy Birthday, it just didn't feel right last night when you first posted up about the dawgs.

ppink

Oh great news BtoJ:)

Happy birthday to you:)

belongtojazz

Yay she's home!

A bit grumpy and quiet but so much better, the vet has put it down to a bug, got to keep an eye in her (and her deposits) for a few days but fingers crossed it's all over now.

Thanks for the support last night I was a bit of a mess

belongtojazz

Just thought I'd update everyone, whatever was wrong with her seems to have passed thankfully.

We went to agility training today and she was running around without a bother

Except a bit peeved she couldn't get her usual sneaky treats from her buddies!
