We took our 10 year old dog Holly to the vet yesterday, because she was not acting right. She was not energetic, loss of appetite, just not right.During the exam the doctor noted a yellow tint to her eye whites, and gums. After running blood work he thinks she has autoimmune hemolytic anemia. The blood work also showed liver damage. He is treating Holly with massive doses of prednisone, S-adenosyl (to help support her liver), and Doxycycline ( to rule out a tick born parasite and prevent infections due to steriod use). I researched the disease on the internet, but did not see much about cases with severe liver damage. We are so worried about her, as it seems her case is pretty severe. I just want to know if anyone has any experience with this disease. Please keep our girl in your prayers. Any feedback will be great.
