Update On Lady And Puppies UPDATE 5/05/07 POST #26

[Catty1]

Could she have a calcium deficiency from nursing? I wonder if a good round of minerals and vitamins would be an idea....I was just thinkg about how she really liked the vitamin c...

I'd love to give Lady a big hug to try to make her feel better. She looks so sad. Hopefully she is just worn out from the puppers and can get better really quickly after a vet check. She looks like such a lovely lady!

My vet had to reschedule our appointment due to his own personal issues. So I am taking Lady to Paws on Sunday morning for a H.W. test. If she is negative, then I will schedule another appointment with my vet for early next week to have tests done. If she is positive for H.W., I am not sure what I am going to do. Treatment here is highly expensive. I will just have to wait until Sunday to find out and then go from there.

Please keep sweet Lady in your prayers.

If you look at this picture, you can see her ribs because she is under weight, but her stomach looks very bloated. I dewormed her this morning, but nothing yet.


This is how she always looks lately, and what she does all day long. Poor Lil' Lady.

Awwwwww......her sad face is breaking my heart I hope and pray she's just a little tired from being a Mommy and she'll snap back. She deserves a good life.

The pups look great! Poor Lady! I hope she gets better. I'm so happy the pups have homes! I'm sure you found the perfect homes for them.

Lady is absolutely gorgeous! Her puppies look wonderful too! That is quite a few puppies to keep up with, and it is pleasing to see that you are willing to love each and every one of them as much as you are
I hope that everything turns out okay at the vets tomorrow! Prayers are on the way for this beautiful mom!

Aw, poor Lady, She looks so sad, it's breaking my heart. Oh God, I hope it's NOT HW and something easily cureable. Would your vet allow a payment plan?

[finn's mom]

She looks so down. Poor girl, I wonder who broke her heart. I hope she's ok.

[Kfamr]

They are so precious and mama is so pretty!

Everyday I look at her this way, breaks my heart as well. I am going to talk to my vet about payments. I am not sure if they will or not. They know we are a rescue, but since we do not yet have our 501c3, they may not take payments. It is worth a shot though.

She looks so down. Poor girl, I wonder who broke her heart. I hope she's ok.

I know who broke her heart.....that horrible man that called himself an "owner". I promised Lady if she gets better that she will never be sad again. Dave and I are highly considering keeping her. I just hope she is okay.

I know, like I said before, this is part of rescue, but this is the part I hate. I will post an update on Sunday after we get back from Paws.

Thank you everybody for your thoughts and prayers. Lady surely needs them.

Lady goes in tomorrow for a H.W. test. Please pray for her. She is taking a lot of deep breathes. She is a little perkier today, but not much. She ate some raw beef (chunks made for stew) with some Missing Link on it yesterday and today. She also had a can and a half (small can) of Innova dog food today. She also nibbled on some puppy food (puppy for protien) mixed with cottage cheese. She is still drinking and going to the bathroom well. She is just so depressed and her gums are so pale. Please pray for her tomorrow.

[Daisy and Delilah]

I'll be praying for her for sure. I want her to be HW free so bad!! I would love to see this pretty baby get well and live a good life We need another PT miracle here!! GET WELL LADY AND CHEER UP-WE LOVE YOU!!

[luvofallhorses]

H.W. is treatabale, but it is very rough and some dogs do not make it through. Their bodies reject the treatment. Here is a link to information on symptoms and treatment. It is very sad. She has a lot of the symptoms. Well, off we go. Fingers crossed. Lots of prayers please.
