I need prayers

[Dixie Belle]

It is that time of year for all puppies to get their shots. I took Mama and Belle. And their vet says....Belle has to have surgery!
See, my big baby has two eye diseases. She has the normal one for St. Bernards, which is the drooping skin thing. But then she turns around and gets the reverse one too. That means that her eyelid is rolling in onto her eye. If left alone, is will form an ulser on her eyeball, and she will eventually be blind in her eye.
She has already had this surgery one time, and now it is time for the other eye. She has to be there Friday. And she gets to wear the funny collar for two to three weeks.
So, everyone, please think about me and my husband for the next few weeks. It wouldn't be as hard if she was the size of Mama, but being as big as she is, it is difficult to handle.

We will certainly be thinking and praying for Belle and you until you tell us that she's back home and on her way to recovery.
Best get well wishes from Carina and Alicia. :)

Good luck with everything. I will be praying for Belle and your family. I'm sure everything will work out okay.

Poor big baby, Dixie Belle. At least she'll get to come home to recover, even if it means wearing the funny collar - just tell her she looks like Queen Elizabeth (I) with the big white collar, maybe she won't resent it too much. And tell Mama not to pick on her! Give her a big old tummy scritch for me!

I am so sorry for poor Belle, no matter how big they are they are still our little babies. Of course we will be praying for her and thinking about her and you too. I'm sure her surgery will go well but just for safety's sake we will keep her in our thoughts until she comes home and is on the road to recovery. Take care.

[Daisy's Mom]

Daisy and I will keep sweet beautiful Belle in our prayers, too. I saw a show on Animal Planet about that condition... from what I understood, it is rather painful and Belle will be so sooo happy when it's all fixed! I am sure everything will be fine. My Daisy has to have eye surgery next week too... it's so nerve-wracking, isn't it? Kisses to wonderful Belle!

I need any positive thoughts and prayers anyone can give to our daughter Lories little Schnauzer, Sabrina. Lorie was up all night with her vomiting and diarrhea (spelling) had some blood in her vomit. She layed on the couch with her all night and first thing this morning they took her to the Vet. Will do blood tests etc, also found at the same time she has a cracked tooth that will have to come out. Sabrina's husband Alex (they both were rescues who had puppies together before Lorie got them) is so sad he won't come out from under the bed.
I'm so upset, all the Schnauzers in our family six of them are my babies.

I will be praying for Sweet Sabrina. I hope she is better soon. It is so awful to watch our little ones go through any sort of pain. Please let us know as soon as you hear any news.

[Daisy's Mom]

Poor Sabrina! Her family must be so worried! I will keep her in my prayers also.

[jackiesdaisy1935]

Lorie called me tonight and she said they took blood tests and everything was normal, they sent her home and are to watch her, if she starts to vomit again, she has to take her back because she may have an obstruction.
Poor thing, Alex (we call him Sabrina's husband) is so happy to have her back. He came out from under the bed. She is going to let me know in the morning how Sabrina is doing.

[Daisy's Mom]

I am so glad that the blood tests showed nothing wrong. How is Sabrina today, Jackie? Daisy and I prayed that she has no serious problems.

[aly]

I'm glad all the tests went okay. I will continue my prayers until Sabrina makes a full recovery. I'm glad Alex is out from under the bed :)

[jackiesdaisy1935]

I talked to Lorie this morning and she said Sabrina will not eat the special diet the Vet gave her, but not vomiting, I told her to try to see that she drinks plenty of water. She will check with the Vet later to see what to do.

[tatsxxx11]

Oh Jackie. Poor Sabrina, poor Alex!!! Not to mention Lorie and yourself :( I'm glad thought that the initial tests were negative. Don't you just wish they could talk to us and tell us how they feel??? Alex must be so glad to have his lady home again. Paws crossed that she stays the course, starts eating and taking her fluids. Please send my get well wishes to Lorie, and hugs for sweet Sabrina. Love, Sandra

[aly]

Hey Jackie, maybe Sabrina has what Reece had that time a few months back. He had the worst uncontrollable diarrhea and vomitting. He had eaten that rotten chicken meat from the trash and got better in a few days.


Oh I just looked back and remembered there was blood in her vomit. Not sure what that could be then :(

[crow_noir]

my thoughts are with you Dixie and Jackie!!!
