    Oh no! Eat Auggie, eat!!! Please.....?

    At this point I would try force feeding her. It's not fun and it's not pretty and she won't like you doing it, but she has to eat or the liver will start shutting down...I believe. Once that happens they end up with liver disease and that is very difficult to treat and is often....well.....we won't even go there.

    What I did with Tubby was I got a syringe - without the needle - and sucked soft baby food into it. I then force his mouth open, shoved the syringe in and pushed the plunger. You do have to be careful to not choke her, but this was the most effective way for me to get food into Tubby.

    I'm so glad you got a second opinion already too. I can see that you're being proactive and not waiting around until it's too late.

    Come on Auggie....eat!

    Poor Auggie!!!! Let's hope she "only" needs a dentist!

    Whatever it is, I hope your vet will make her feel better soon!

    Please try to eat, beautiful Auggie girl!!

    Angie, I know you are so worried, my friend. I don't know how I would react in a similar situation. I hope that it is related to dental issues and can be resolved easily. I can't remember how old the beautiful Auggie is either.

    Hang in there and know that we are praying hard for a complete recovery!
