    Dasher To the Vet

    Dasher has had very bad diarrhea since I woke up yesterday at three. Poor guy even messed in the house while I was gone last night. He never does that. I went back out and got some stuff for that and gave nim a kid's dose. He's had one other dose and it doesn't seem to be helping. We've both been up all night. I'm exhausted as I was already way behind on my sleep. Vet didn't have opening until 5 today but I told them I'd rather come in and have them fit us in sometime. I don't mind waiting. Don't want him to get worse. I hope it's not serious.

    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Fur as dark as the night.
    Join me on this flight.
    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.

    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.

    Get well soon, Dasher!
    I hope nothing is serious. Going to the vet was a smart idea. Keep us updated on after you get back from the vet. Lots of prayers for Dasher!
    Thank you so much for my siggy, kittycats_delight!

    Thinking of Dasher and hoping that it is something that is easily remedied.

    Thanks guys. I'm glad I decided to take him. He threw up right before we left for the vet. I hadn't fed him anything today. Does your dog do this? At home, he was moping and sleeping. Naturally, since he wasn't feeling well. He gets to the vet and has fun socializing with some little dogs in the waiting room. By the time the vet sees him, he's jumping around like he's not even sick. Silly boy. Vet gave him some paste for the diarrhea and some antibiotics. He just ran off again but it's tapered off, some. He's not going a frequently. Vet thinks he'll be better by tomorrow. He can drink all he wants but no food until his stool isn't runny. Right now, he's snoring next to me on the bed.

    My pups do that too val. They can be all mopey around the house
    but the minute we hit the Vets office lobby, they spring to life.

    Hope Dasher gets 100% ASAP.

    Val, just an FYI about that paste.
    Buddy was taking that last summer after getting worms and it hardened his poo so much that it must have hurt him to hold it and he pooped in the house. When I picked it up it was hard as a rock!!!
    I felt so bad for him, so I lightened up on the paste and he was much better.

    I can't remember for the life of me what the name of it is, but mine was in a big white syringe looking thing that you spin the end on it to what ever measurement you need to give.

    Hugs to Dasher!!
