I am so glad to hear that Penny seems to be doing better. I will keep her in my prayers.

Thanks everyone . Penny finishes her antibiotics tomorrow, then it is back for more blood tests to see if everything is ok. If she goes down hill again after the ABs stop then we will know there is something going on and Xrays and ultrasounds will be done.

I'm hoping and praying that Penny"s blood work reveals a clean bill of health.

I'm so happy that she has improved during the course of her treatment. I'll keep her in my thoughts. She's such a sweet doggie!!!!!

Bit of an update on Penny...

We ended up back at the vets today Penny may have to have her left eye removed, the vets thinks either Glucoma or possible a growth/ tumor behind her eye. Pen goes back in to the vets in the morning to have her pupils dilated so the vet can look back and see whats happening behind her eye .

Good thoughts and vibes would be appreciated thanks.

Prayers for Penny. Hope she gets better soon.

Sending good thoughts your way. Hope the Vet gives you better news.

Hugs,
Willie

With a heavy heart we have decided it would be unfair to put Penny through surgery, so at the moment we are keeping her as pain free as possible and she will let us know when it is time.. some people may not like our choice but our little dog is so frail.. the life has gone out of her eyes today .

ETA: She will be off to our vets later today to see what else we can do to help her & for more blood work to be done.. i still have hope that she will improve.. we can only hope.

My God, that poor little thing has been through so much. I feel so bad. I didn't catch all of this but this eye problem - was that part of her illness in the summer time? I'm keeping her in my prayers. She was doing really well for awhile. Sending positive thoughts your way.

I'm sorry Penny is so frail. I will send good vibes her way. Please take care.

Oh I missed your last update, Rhi. I am so sorry to hear that Penny is doing so poorly. I am sure that you and your family will make the best and most loving decisions for her all along the road. In her frail state you would hate to have her not make it through the operation. I will keep you and Penny in my prayers.

Thanks for all the good thoughts everyone, they do mean alot to us.

angelchampy nope hey eyes were fine when we were away (holidays), when we got back and during the last time she was sick. Her eyes have only just started to flare up in the last month or so.

The poor little girl has had an off day today, not eating much, sleeping more than usual, heavy breathing . She does not appear to be in pain and she is drinking, and will still get up to bark "random things" . We will take each day as it comes.
