I hope Moo has a good night and is feeling better again tomrrow. It’s tough to know whta to do to help her if she won’t eat.
Its very frustrating and frightening. I hate feeling so powerless. Usually we manage things work through things and find ways to cope. We have access to so much stuff now we can cheat illness in so many ways, this is unbeatable. I think I make headway and it gains ground. We had a good few weeks though so on we go. I lost a cat to renal failure I'd forgotten this was the hard part. I hate that she can't eat it's hard to watch her robbed of her pleasure. Hopefully it will be ok tomorrow she's not lost too much weight and still likes being silly.
Didn't even bother with her bowl just got my spoon out so we were both less stressed. Got the meds in and she ate her breakfast
Hopefully a bit of the ice will melt so I can take her out. So concerned about her slipping but she still likes a bit of a stroll she gets bored. Her mind is still sneaky and cheeky
She's definately not a morning dog anymore. She doesn't want to eat in the morning so I just give her as much as she can cope with . I have started to do any extra feed at mid day. Hopefully that will be ok for her. She's been out for a short walk. She was so happy and barky.
I don't really feel able to contribute anything other than you seem to be doing a great job keeping your dog happy and pain free. Thinking of you.
I admire you for taking so much time and effort into Moo! I know you love her very much! Our first lab was 14 years old and had the same problems. She wanted to go on and on. We had her pts when she couldn’t hold her bowels, not that I minded, but she did! We tried to postpone this as long as possible! As long as she stays happy and do some little walking, and you take great care of her to make this possible!
Thanks I'm doing my best she's really happy at the moment so its just carry on. I'll know when it's time.
I just want you to know that I love reading about your relationship with Moo, you have a beautiful bond with her. I hope that she continues being her quirky, barky self for a while longer.
Oh @SwampDonkey, I am only catching up now. I hope Moo has stablised and that she is feeling her best again. Sending you and her so much love.
