Princess is getting better.

 

Thank goodness for credit card.  I couldn’t handle my Princess being sick any longer and didn’t want to wait for Monday.  We decided to visit a vet on Sunday and expected a hefty bill. It came to about $600 bucks!  Here is her status.
1.  She has some kind of infection.  The vet thought that she might have Kidney failure but thank goodness she doesn’t.  He said it was expected for her age.  But her Kidneys are good.
2.  So she got some antibiotic medicine and another medicine to coat her intestinal linings.  
3.  Monday morning poop was still dark and black but it was somewhat solid.  No vomit that I noticed and last night she ate some food.  
4.  Bought her some milk thistle capsules, which I’m taking also
5.  And she has some slippery elm coming today.
6.  I have to force feed her still.  But Yeah!!! She ate something.  
7.  Went to Pet store last night and bought her goat’s milk and fresh food, not can food, or kibble, fresh food from the fridge.  I’m changing their diet.
8.  I also made some chicken and a little bit of rice with 4 carrots and 1.5 sweet potatoes.  That will be their dinner tonight when I get home.  I cooked it this morning in the instant pot.

Princess at the Vet

 She she’s here at the vet and they’re testing her for kidney failure.  So far the bill is $511 😞😔





We’re at Hudspeth animal clinic in Macon.  They’re very expensive but they help her last time.  I’m just glad they’re open and available.






My dog is sick

 Princess has been pooping black stool since Friday and it’s Sunday today.  We couldn’t get a visit to Griffin animal hospital because she haven’t been there for years and no longer accepting new clients.  Even tho we frequent them for their monthly flea medicine.

Dr. Griffin is so affordable, I guess that’s why he has so many clients.  So I guess we go see the Hudspeth animal hospital.  I will call them tomorrow to make appointment or have an emergency visit. Which will cost me $115 plus treatment.  I’m gonna pay it because I don’t like to see her like this.


We took her to the park yesterday.  Hopefully she’ll eat grass and get somewhat better and maybe puke out what ever it is that’s ailing her.  She did eat grass but she mainly sat at the park.  She seems very low energy and not herself.  She hasn’t eaten since Friday which worry me. 

But Dr. Hudspeth took care of her last time even tho it was expensive. Hopefully they will be able to help us again.

New member of the pack

 

Meet “Bear”, our new member of the pack.
I am so proud of my pitbulls because they have allowed “Bear” arrived to us as a kitten and is now grown, to join our family.  He’s talkative, loves to eat and demands cuddling.
