No improvements to talk about. This dog can be a little hard to read. Shes lazy,so sleeping all day really isnt out of the norm for her. Shes never sucked a water bowl dry.its actually kinda rare to see or hear her drinking. But food is a different story. She will pass up dog food but she has never passed up any human foods. The vet told me when she starts sleeping all the time,stops eating or drinking,the end is near.
She did finally eat yesterday. On mondays,my wife brings her home some meatballs and other trimmings from work. So when my wife came home,she was expecting meatballs (she knows when meatball day is). My wife said she was jumping and hopping around waiting for meat balls. She told her there werent any and she snorted at my wife and ran in the room and ate the food i gave her.
The bad breath seems to be a come and go thing. It hasnt been the rancid make you want to puke smell. More of a lingering fart smell.you kinda gotta be right next to her to smell it.the rancid smell could be smelled across the room.
The drooling and licking isnt as bad as it was
FOR THE WHACKOS WHO FEEL THEY NEED TO MESSAGE ME SAYING IM POISONING AND KILLING MY DOG. i discussed this with my vet. It is safe. I can double what im giving her if i want too. The vet gave me the fenben.if it wasnt safe,i doubt he woulda gave me the stuff and id doubt you could walk into tractor supply and buy it off the shelf without a prescription. Dont waste your time messaging me,im just gonna block and ignore you.
My options were to sit here and watch her slowly die or try something that may or may not work while i sit here and watch her die. My vet said it wont hurt to try so i opted for the try something while i watch her die. If it doesnt work,atleast i tried something. If it does work i might get another year or 2 with her. Other than this,shes perfectly healthy.
I hope you stick with it. I certainly would have if I'd known Baxter had liver cancer. And come on people DMing OP!! Don't you see that little message when you DM someone saying that this isn't a board for that?? As if OP isn't going through enough already, shame on you!! Hang in there! Many are rooting for you!
Im gonna stick with till the day i have to put her down. Hopefully that day wont come for another year or 2. Poor thing hasnt even hit the retired old dog that cant get on the couch stage yet.
You are doing the right thing and what is best for your precious fur baby. Can't believe someone would send you such a cruel message! Praying for you all fren...🙏
I believe it.
" JscholI17 sent 21 hours ago You poisoned an innocent dog. Abusing animals is a sign of mental illness. I've reported you to the authorities."
Hopefully a mod sees it and bans thier ass.
I dont give a fuck what they got to say. My vet said its safe and wont hurt to try. I have 1 of the best vets in the area. I trust what he says 200%.
Oh my goodness!! Unbelievable! What goes through these people's minds!?!
I Totally agree with your protocol and I only wish that I'd had this knowledge for all of my loved ones. Two and Four legged.
Blessings fren! 🙏
Bless you for loving and caring for your dog! A big fat F U to the idiots accusing you of anything else!! You are an incredible human with a heart of gold and I LOVE how much you LOVE your pup! Praying for healing and sending you much love! Can’t wait to hear about the meatballs tomorrow, THANK YOU for taking the time to keep those of us who care about your journey in the loop!!

Like my momma used to say “Nothing beats a failure like a try”. I think that fits this situation. Prayers for you! ❤️
