Do you have many ticks there? Had a bunch of ticks get on my dog once and he was nearly paralized from it and the vet did something for him. I was deployed at the time. You might check her closely for ticks. If she is improving and not in alot of pain I would probably keep an eye on her and give it a day or 2. Weekend vet calls are usually alot more expensive.

Well the vet said he doesn't need to see her. He think she just hurt herself in excitement because we did have a bull snake Thursday before she acted up. She is improving.

No ticks that we have ever seen here. We are just going to keep her hydrated and full and let her rest.

Good to hear she is improving. Dogs seem to try and play tough when they are hurting, so good job noticing. That is a good point about snakes,spiders, and other creepy crawlies. Its that time of year to really watch out for them here.

Hope she gets better soon velvet! Cant get my old dog to eat anything but deer sausage. Turning her nose up at canned dog food now. Dont thing she will be around much longer. My other dog isnt much younger but still in good shape. Had to get rid of the Husky I had because Im pretty sure she killed 2 calves. Wish I had got a collie x dog from the place I hunted antelope last year but didnt cuz I had the husky, wish I had now he was a cool dog. Think Ill be looking for a pup next spring.

She is improving as the day has gone on. She has been doing her normal stuff and raised her head up more. Maybe by tomorrow she will be the same stubborn, rotten, spoiled lab that she is. Up until Thursday, she always had the energy of a puppy and shredded any toy or bed you have her.

 

[Musket Man]

I usually figure if they are improving and eating and drinking they will be ok!

 

[Againstthewind]

Those dang things can really get you worried. Mine are spoiled rotten and getting older, too. My aussie mix might be retired from hiking this year. She loves it for a couple of hours, but lately she has started to get pretty stiff and sore. She used to charge up the trail and then look back as if to say "What are you waiting for? Come on!" charge back to me and then charge up the trail again. probably added 3x the miles to the hike. Now she just trots for a little while and then walks beside me. Its nice to finally have her heel but I wish it was because she was obedient. Sorry to hear about your dog MM and having trouble. It can be a sad time.

 

[Musket Man]

Its hard to let them go but its part of having them I guess. My dog that went bout 3 years ago held on till I told him it was ok to go. once I told him it was ok he went within 10 minutes. Crazy but true.

Dogs getting old are like people getting old, they will try to tough it out no matter what. Last year in May I had to put my Lab down after 13 1/2 years. Tough thing to do. The great thing for me tho is that next Saturday, I get to pick up my new Lab puppy, then the work begins.

The reason I suggested spider & scorpions is that my wife's parents lost a cat to a black widow bite and I've had a springer nailed by a scorpion that got really sick. Hope your pal gets better.

Happy Birthday Post Padding Thread! Think we can get to 3000 by 10:24am? HAHAHA!

 

[Timberstalker]

With you on here, I think so!

 

[Musket Man]

Timber is going to break 1000 posts easy this morning!

 

[Timberstalker]

I don't think so MM, I don't have much to talk about. Things are pretty mello around here.

I do have something in common with Velvet though #DOG PROBS

My lab has some sores between his toes on his back feet, I think he is going to the vet tomorrow.

 

[Musket Man]

Sounds like everyone having dog problems right now.

Two terriers and nothing to hunt! Everyones problems are different. Luckily no health problems lately

My ankle biters are pouting bc it's been raining all day.

 

[Alabama]

Yeah it's been raining off and on here all day but we actually needed it this time. It hit 90 here about 2 weeks ago and hasn't let up since. With temps in the 90's everyday it doesn't take long to dry out.

 

[packmule]

Dang sure doesn't take long. We had a dry spell at the end of April & 90 degree days, but have had 12" of rain since mid May and a lot of low 80s overcast days. Hope it does this through August.
