Darn Squirrells & Penny's Head Bobbing...

[pomtzu]

Ya know - I was thinking about Penny last night, and how you said you give corn syrup or honey and then she is okay. That sounds so much like a blood sugar issue. Maybe she's not a full blown diabetic, but crashes occasionally for some reason?? I used to have to give my Lhasa corn syrup when she crashed. She didn't have a head bob - she would just walk in a tight circle and be really disoriented. It was next to impossible to keep her stable even on insulin. She proved very difficult to regulate.
Just thought I'd share that with you - just one more idea to add to the confusion.

You've got some great looking dogs there. I love the picture of two of them crashed on the couch.

aww Pomtzu, thank you, I do have Penny blood drawn every 3 months just for medical reasons and all those tests are run, and everytime her blood sugar comes back normal but Doc says that is the only thing he can think of to fix it, so that is what we do, the syrup, and I try ot always give her honey as she is ona astrict no grain diet. Penny's med level is proving a bit difficult to get in order as well, thank you for the iinfo and insight though, I do appreciate it.

Thank you Oyster, they are all terribly rotten, I have sooo many pics of them all crashed onthe couches, was even funnier that they had been chasing squirrells and this is what it came too, lol

Darn you tye, you made me cry. I'm so sorry about Pennys condition. I had no idea she was that bad. My mom had a cocker spaniel for 10 years who was epileptic. Those videos brought back some very uneasy memories for me. I love/hated that little dog, but it's always soooo scarey not being able to help when they're like that.

Me too! I was thinking they must have done a lot of hard work following the squirrel!
