I have a chihuahua and since saturday she seems to be in pain. She cries when you go to pick her up. Her body seizes up. She had a seizure without the convultions. She seems afraid to be picked up. She won't eat. I took her into the vet yesturday, they did an x-ray and blood work it all came out fine, but she is still not responding well. Got any ideas?

Reason for collapse
Posted on 2008/02/12 by HendersonMy 14yr old male Brussles Griffon has gagging fits where he can't seem to breath and tries to hack up something but never has a discharge. He then loses control of his bowls and pees on floor and then his front legs weaken and he collapes and can't move for awhile. He eventually recovers enought to move but with difficulty. Doesn't hardly eat, licks his feet a lot, sleeps all the time and doesn't really want any attention. Doesn't seem to have a fever. Fits usually happen at night. I am very worried?

i think my dog is dying
Posted on 2008/02/20 by rebeccai think my friends dog is dying. its lost most of its hair and the first layer of its skin in a lot of places. hes covered in scabs and raw skin. hes really sick and doesnt want to eat and hes just laying there and even when he puts his head up he keeps his eyes closed. hes in a lot of pain. and he starts heaving and breathing heavy and i think its death rattles. what can we do? its the middle of the night and we cant even go to a pet hospital because they require a $500 deposit and we dont have it. what can i do?

My 12 1/2 year old lab/sharpei mix has started having seizures. She has had 4 in two days. I took her to my vet and they did blood work that came back negative for any issue. The vet thinks that the seizures could be caused by a tumor that is affecting her central nervous system. I don't want to put her through the process of an MRI -- she's already "freaked out" enough. Can you give me a second opinion? I'm really at a loss as to what to do. Thanks.

puppy failing
Posted on 2008/03/13 by UserI have a 3 month old chihuahua puppy that I adopted 2 weeks ago from a rescue shelter. He was great for the first few days and then started losing weight. I took him back to ask her for her advice and she sent him home with albon and amoxicillin and vitamins and asked me to keep her informed about him.
