So I'm just wondering if she had throat cancer that spread or something.

I am going to call the vets first thing Monday morning to see if we can get her in for an ultrasound a lot sooner than Wednesday.

I love Anika so much and I will just try to offer the food today try not to force feed and we are now mixing her A/D with some water because as far as I know she is now not drinking water, last night she went over to her dish and just sat there but didn't drink.

I'm still having faith that she will turn around until I know what the ultrasound results are. I've attached picture of my Annie (we call her that sometimes instead of Anika from 2007).

Thank you all again for your prays and continued support throughout this hard time.

Puddy did the hard swallowing for a couple of years. Dr. Lee carefully examined her tongue, the inside of her mouth and her throat when she was under anesthesia and he could find no reason for it. She didn't appear to be in pain and it didn't choke her while she ate, so he said to just watch and see if any other symptoms manifest in that regard but none ever did. We never did figure out the reason for it.
