I have to put off tonight’s post...Our puppy, Macy, had some sort of allergic reaction to something today. Our awesome vet zoomed over to the house, whisked her away and filled her up with medication. I was sick to my stomach. I thought she was having a heart attack! She went rigid and began drooling. She couldn't move. It was seriously scary! Her face began swelling...Our awesome vet filled her up with medicine, observed her for a few hours and then brought her home. He said we could call him during the night if we needed to. What a great guy! She's pretty lethargic, but she looks okay. She's curled up on her big pillow.
I'll post my truths and pass along the awards tomorrow...
oh, my! that must have been very scary. I am so glad she is doing better! hooray for that awesome vet
ReplyDeleteTess--She's sleepy and thirsty...the medicine for going into anaphalactic (sp?) shock is making her that way. The swelling has gone down and the drooling stopped before Awesome Vet brought her home. I don't know what I would have done if he hadn't been home and able to come over. I couldn't drive and take care of her.
ReplyDeletePoor Macy - Piper and I are sending good thoughts her way! I can't believe you have a vet that makes housecalls, that's awesome! Please keep us posted on her recovery.
ReplyDeleteOMG how awful for you!! You must have been so worried!
ReplyDeleteThank goodness for your super vet!
I hope Macy is feeling better now and that you didn't have to call the vets - awesome though he is.
Poor Macy! Furry hugs to you all.
Take care

Hope you are all feeling better. You're blessed to have a vet who comes to your house. Didn't know that even happened anymore.
ReplyDeleteA vet that makes housecalls??? WOW. He is awesome.
ReplyDeleteHope Macy gets better soon. My 6 yo just fell in love with her.
ReplyDeleteSusan--Jon is wonderful! I'm so thankful that he was at home. He had just run home to pick something up. He warned me that she would be very thirsty. We were up on and off all night. She wakes up about once an hour and needs to go out.
ReplyDeleteKitty--She seems to be okay. The swelling is all gone. She's just tired and thirsty because of the medicine. I don't think we'll give her the booster cannine influenza shot in two weeks. I don't know if the shot caused this, but it was the only thing different yesterday.
Buffy--I guess I just found a perk for living in a small town. :)
ReplyDeleteDL--No only did he make a house call, but he took her with him, treated her and bought her home. He's a great guy.
Stina--Thanks. I'm sure in another 24 hours she'll be back to normal.
Oh no! I hope she's ok today! Poor baby puppy. :(
ReplyDeleteAmy--Thanks, she's pretty exhausted. I took her for a walk around the block and now she's asleep. LOL! Of course, we haven't been able to walk that far for a LONG time.
ReplyDeleteOh, that is scary!!! What a cute doggie you have. I'm so glad she is feeling better. What kind of spaniel is she?
ReplyDeleteKelly--Thanks, she's doing better. The medicine is making her really thirsty. She has to go out every hour or so; not too bad except when it's 1 a.m., 2 a.m., 3 a.m. and so on...
ReplyDeleteWhen we got her they called her a cockapoo, but someone told me where they live they call them spoodles.
