I also do not know anything about fungal infections but I will definitely keep Gracie in my prayers. ((Hugs)) to you both.

thanks for all the hugs everyone. Thank you for the article!

Gracie didn't eat last night. That is not like her. She's my food hog. I have to run into the clinic today to get my check. I'm going to mention it to the vet while I'm there. She is definately getting worse.

This might throw her off her food for a day or so, but It's great that you got her meds quickly.
Did you ask the Vet how she could have picked this up?

Good wishes and prayers for little Gracie!

Liz - the spores are usually inhaled from infected ground. NO way to predict or prevent it, but they suggest keeping your dogs out of wooded moist areas as much as possible.

Yes, that's what he said. I go hiking with the dogs. Who knows where she got it. She didn't eat again last night either. I'm worried sick and now I have to leave for TN. I have a dog show. I'm so worried something will happen to her while I'm gone. I can't not go though. I have clients' dogs.

Try not to worry about Gracie too much. Your parents will keep giving her meds, there isn't much else you can do at this point, really.
Go to the show & give your clients your best - they're counting on you.
We'll all keep up the prayers, & your vet is on top of it. Good luck at the show!

Well, I'm back from the show now. My parents got her to eat about a cup of food since Friday morning when I left. I talked to a few of my dog friends and Gracie's breeder this weekend. They all think she has Blasto. Her breeder told me to feed her a/d canned food. It'll give her at least some nutrition. I called the vet on Friday on my way to TN to tell him she wasn't eating. He said it may be because of the meds so he told me to cut back from 1 pill to 1/2 pill. I haven't noticed a difference yet, but hopefully will soon. Please continue to keep her in your prayers.
