Can my cat friends spare a prayer for a Labrador Retriever, please?

Prayers for Bailey and for her dad, too!! He must be so upset!!!

Oh that poor dog! She must be so confused! I will keep her and her owner in my thoughts and prayers. It's something I've never heard of happening either. We had dogs the whole time growing up, but I never had this happen. Please keep us updated with what happens.

Well, he got the blood work back this morning and in his words "Everything is normal". Now how can that be? The dog had 3 grand mal seizures w/in an 18 hr. period. His vet suggested a brain tumor test but she said it's very expensive and he's a landscaper who hasn't gone back to work yet so he can't exactly afford that. He hasn't spoken to his vet this morning because she will be in surgery all day. It was the vet tech who gave him the info. He's more stressed today than he was yesterday. But Bailey has remained calm, no more nosebleeds or seizures at this point. I honestly don't know what to think. The vet tech told him that she may never have another seizure but that's a chance that I wouldn't want to take. They started for a reason. I know Dr. Lee could get to the bottom of it but he's expensive and, as I said, his finances are very limited right now.

Thanx for your prayers and support, friends. If/when I hear any more news, I'll be sure to post.

Thanx, friends. I love Bailey and his other lab Abby like they're my own. This man and I were an item for a few years and we've remained friends. He loves my cats and I love his dogs. I prayed last night that they both would get some rest. He slept w/his clothes on, shoes, keys and wallet by the door in case he had to go to the emergency clinic in a hurry. Poor Bailey just doesn't know what's happening and she has such a scared look in her eyes that I could cry. And I've never heard her cry like that before. She did it nonstop, he said, for over half an hour. So keep the prayers coming, if you would, and as soon as I hear something, I'll be sure to let you all know.

This is such a sad, scared thread from someone who has been kind to me so I just had to reply...(I lurk a lot... )

Mary I will keep Bailey in my thoughts and prayers, this doesn't sound good at all. Could Bailey have eaten something outside - even some poison berries or did someone (neighbour) close by carelessly leave some chemicals about or something, like pesticides - she might have trod in then licked her paws? If that were the case then bloods would look normal wouldn't they, and it would be a one-off wouldn't it?

Perhaps I'm clutching at straws, but maybe it isn't the dog, maybe it's something in the environment?

Anyway keep us posted and very best of luck to Bailey and her Dad.

Love your picture by the way - nothing like I imagined!!! (long dark hair, homely, glasses...)
