I'm so upset I spelled my own dogs name wrong, like I said porr,poor, Reesie.
My Kimber was JUST diagnosed with IVDD. She got up not being able to walk on the 5th. The Vet says it happens overnight like that. She is on the crate rest, the steriods, the anti inflamatories. She cried when she peed too, but we know why now.
Its going to be a long hard battle but we are going to do the best we can to get her well.
OH I so feel for you and your Doxies. Wishing you all the best and for a full recovery.
I said a prayer for all our members and their pets as well .
Best wishes for the wonderful furbabies and the humans too.
Oh dear, worst nightmare is right! I pray that Reesie and Kimber pull through this with full recoveries! How I wish our dachshunds didn't have this issue with their spines, it is so frightening. Love and hugs to you and your babies. We are here for you, we understand all too well what you are going through!
Thank you everyone for the loving vibes for my Reese and for Kimber as well.
This morning Reese is doing well,the pain med is working, not one cry or yelp of pain. But that confuses her because I still have her in the crate most of the time of course. I put her down to do her business outside and she ran...UGH! Stop that baby no running. She finally did her duty and came right to me to pick her up to go back in. At least she knows not to go up the few stairs.She wants so badly to be in the big dog bed with everyone else, 2 weeks baby, just 2 weeks.
It is wonderful that these dogs have loving owners as yourselves.
It is also good that you let the rest of us know signs and symptoms of these problems.
I pray perfect health and keep only positive thoughts around them.
I didn't realize it was her back till my vet felt around, just didn't seem to be back related because of the pee, poor sweethearts, I wish they could talk. At least the vet took his time until he found the problem, so many are rush, rush rush.
I'll be keeping Reesie and Kimber in my prayers, sweet little furbabies.
