Prayers for Pinot-SHE'S BACK TO HERSELF 4/29!

[Pinot's Mom]

I'd like to ask for prayers for Pinot's vet visit this evening. She's been having sneezing bouts, poop trouble and she's off her food . We love her so much and hope whatever it is can be taken care of easily.

Given the awful viral disease she had when we first got her a year ago, and the fact that she's a probable carrier, we worry a great deal about any sinus trouble or avoidance of food, as both were symptoms of that disease. If you could, just keep good thoughts in mind for our baby girl today; thanks!

Poor Pinot! I hope it's something that can be taken care of easily. I take it you have tried several different foods.

Sending lots of positive throughts.

[Pinot's Mom]

Thank you for your thoughts....

Randi, yes, other food options have been going on for a couple of weeks now. I'm hoping that may be at least partly to blame, but I just can't seem to figure this one out. There were just too many symptoms on the list at the same time, so I thought it was time for the vet to see her.

I thank you all for your prayers and support; it means a lot.

Well, the vet visit was positive - her regular vet wasn't there, but we've seen the other as well, and they're both very good.

There seems to be no sinus trouble or congestion; could be a touch of spring allergens for the sneezing - nothing to worry about, no recurrence of the awful thing she had a year ago-whew!

The loose stools could be a variety of things, including food changes, she's got meds for that (for a week). The vet seemed to think it'll clear up soon, and remember this, "as there was no vomiting".

Appetite/food issues: we've got to figure out what she'll eat on a consistent basis - it could be a matter of moistening her dry food a bit to make it easier for her to eat. She has no tooth issues, they're great, she could just be going through a phase of wanting a change in her food (she's been a little - inconsistent - of late in whether she eats; and, since she normally gobbles her food in seconds flat, this was a concern). We'll continue to work on that.

She got a booster in her rabies vaccine, it was due and she seemed to be healthy enough for it.

Then, we got home: she threw up her dinner.

We're hoping this was due to the crating/ car ride/ thermometer you know where (which really ticked her off)/ rabies shot/ general upset in her routine. I'm going to keep it positive, as the vet wasn't concerned, and hope she'll be better tomorrow. We'll get the report on her fecal sample then as well. The only other thing is we have to work on getting her "girlish figure" back - she's a tad over 12 pounds, and for her....let's just say Weight Watchers might be a good idea!

Again, thank you all, I hope this was just a case of overprotective parents!

Gald to hear she had such a good report. And Eddie ALWAYS throws up when he gets home from the vet!
