Hey everyone,
Our maltese/shih tzu mix named Maggie is 14 years old. We've had her since she was like only 6-7 weeks old, so she's like a member of the family--kinda like a sister to me ;) She has had trouble getting around (like walking) for the last 3 years. Today when I went to feed her this morning she was perfectly fine, but a few hours ago when I went to check on her (she was in the bathroom(she loves to stay in the bathroom, we've taken everything out of our bathroom closet and made her like a little bed in there with all her blankets and bone..she sleeps there everynight) but anyway she was lying flat on her side and had used the bathroom all over herself. She can't even get up and walk or hold herself up at all! I think she's had a stroke because this is the exact way our alaskan malamute was before we had to have her pts in '05 and our malamute had a stroke. I am hoping that she will get her strength back soon and be ok--I know she's an old dog but we love her so much and I would appreciate all the prayers we can get for her!
Here is a picture of her so you'll know who you're praying for :)
