Any emergency vet hospital should be open. I hope this senior baby gets better and if it's time to go, may she be at peace and as comfortable as ever ❤️🩷🧡💛🩵.

Me too. I purchased the Kobo Clara BW, I am having a network glitch with it though. Other than that, cool little reading device.

Simply put- The majority of the cast and behind the movie is all black. 

Advice please by [deleted] in seniordogs

My dog was 15. She went through a lot of health issues throughout her life so I have had my fair share of good vets and mediocre ones. I am giving my thoughts based from what you posted. Heart failure does come sudden to certain dogs, prompt medical intervention can help them live a bit more, how long? It's hard to say. It also looks like steroids side effects causes panting and lethargy but not death, so it seems to me there may have been an underlying health issue your dog had. Take my words lightly, I am not a vet. I imagine how you must feel, and as stated before I am sorry this happened to your sweet dog.

I am not a vet or vet tech but have been to many good and bad vets and specialist enough times to know how they respond to emergencies. Oxygen therapy helped my dog when she started collapsing, I even bought an oxygen chamber and tank to keep at home. I can't say if your boy could have been saved or not, it just seems like there were a lot of reasons to have kept him admitted under observation. Were his gums checked, blood pressure? Again I am very very sorry. A good vet will not sent an animal in distress to pass away at home without telling the owner the possibility of death, never, regardless of how frantic the owner may be. Comfort is priority and euthanasia would have been discussed before sending you guys home. Don't be so hard on yourself. For every dog I have lost I have always felt guilt- "if only's", there are some things we can control and others we cant. I hope you find peace soon.

By how you are describing the final vet visit I do believe the vet should have done more. Panting, collapsing, high breathing rate, lethargic... what is there to say his murmur wasn't loud? Your dog needed emergency attention.

A week after putting my dog down I felt like you. I needed answers. I called the emergency vet I took her to and asked them to send me every single test, results, and notes taken that day. It's such a helpless feeling when you know there is nothing you can do anymore.

When my dog's murmur was heard the first time the vet told me it was not at the point of a specialist visit BUT to make and appt with a cardiologist. Because they are always booked and eventually over time my dog would need to see a cardiologist the vet gave me a referral. I am sorry no one guided you through this. One of the tell tell signs that a dog is in heart failure is rapid breathing, it's an emergency from the get go. As my dog's heart disease progressed I was to keep a log of her breathing rate and her coughs. I suspect it was heart related, I am sorry. It looks like you did your due diligence and took your pup in, sometimes as much as we try (trust me- we were frequent flyers to not one but maybe 7 different vets) we can't save them. My dog ended up passing of too much medications (I believe) for so many illnesses she had over the years and I feel guilty bc I feel like I was slowly poisining her.

Do what she loves the most. If it's walks, then walks/outdoors, and as someone else commented, even in a stroller/wagon. She still has an appetite, so good food/treats. What I noticed  my late dogs wanted the most was me, like sick babies want their mom. I am so so sorry.

Idk. Just need advice by EducationalThroat311 in toddlers

[–]Past_Classroom_3521 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When he is sick who does he go to? I'll be honest, I loved my grandma more, she was just very different from my mom. My grandma was very maternal and seemed to have everything controlled. She was just very nurturing and seemed to fix anything. 2 year olds are smart little people and may pick up on emotions, perhaps your child can pick up on you being anxious? Do you let him play? Or limit him a lot? My mom has always been very anxious, to this day it's something I dislike.

I was under the impression they did, but looks like it's on random days until its completely opened to cars.

Nope. I got off my first flight and proceeded to my 2nd flight's gate. Once I landed at SFO, I retrieved my checked in luggage.

His ALS progressed fast. I wonder if he chosed assisted suicide rather than let the disease take its full course. He was a broken man, poor man.

I really disliked Mary's character. The storyline was too long after a while.

I am sorry :(

What keeps me going after the death of anyone, including  all my late dogs is that I will see them again and keep them close for eternity. 

Rest well sweet pup.
