Update on caley

as you can see from smiley face we are on the up

She had a relatively good night, we put her in her crate as normal when we went to bed (her crate is beside our bed), she seemed content and didn't sleep too bad, was a bit tossing and turning. This morning there was no leakage from her. She even ate some chicken and drank some water.

Back at the vets we really didn't want them to keep her in again, luckily they were so happy with her progress overnight they agreed, I don't think I have seen a vet and nurse so happy and excited lol. So we are all home armed with two different antibiotic, probiotic and sachets to help plug her up....and we still have no leakage. Have to go back Friday.

Poor thing is still looking sorry for herself, but at least she is heading the right way...she even gnawed on her new stag bar for a little while.

Thank you guys for your support it meant a lot and when I was losing the will it kept me going.

Caryll - I looked up that giardia and it really sounded like what caley had, she is on the antibiotic to treat that, but the vet couldn't get a proper stool sample to check as it was too watery...but I do wonder. Thanks

Fantastic news! Made my day that, thanks for the positive update! No more worrying now

That's brilliant news! It does sound like Giardia, doesn't it? Especially as, once they start to recover, it seems to be quite rapid!

Keep her on easily digestible food for a week or so & we were advised to feed little & often so as not to overload the stomach. We were feeding Dempsey 4 or 5 times a day with just small portions.

Thats Fantastic news, put a big smile on my face, I'm so happy caley is on the mend keep us updated on her progress

Wonderful news, thats what we were all waiting to hear

My boy had something very similar a year or two ago and was in the Vet
Hospital for nearly a week on a drip. They also wanted to test for Giardia
but couldn't get a stool sample properly to test and he came home with
all the various medicines.

At that time everyone on here was very kind to me especially Caryll who
recognised the symptoms.

So Happy for you!

So glad for you, she was in my thoughts all day

Brilliant news , hate to hear when one of our kids is ill (any of the few thousand we must have knocking around

So pleased to hear she is doign better

So glad to hear that she is doing much better .. was thinking of both of you today

Very pleased to read that Caley is on the mend and doing well. I have been thinking about her this morning while I was out, sending more of these to you both >< ><

Great news on Caley... here's hoping a speedy recovery x

Yay, that's brilliant news, so pleased she's on the mend

Fantastic, Hope she continues to improve rapidly!

I agree that it sounds exactly like Giardia. Very scary though, so I'm glad things are looking up!

So happy for you and little Caley, hope she continues to improve and is back to normal very soon. ><

thats brilliant news ,so glad she's on the mend ><

Wonderful news, have been thinking of you both ><

Phew, glad Caley is on the mend ><

How is she doing Debbie?

She is not too bad...very quiet and sleepy...hate seeing her so quiet.

On a good note she is eating her chicken fine, she devours that lol on the bad side I think eating again has triggered off some leaking again not as bad as before but I have to keep putting puppy pads under her don't think she is impressed but compared to the last few days I will try not to moan too much much it still an improvement, guess I hoped it had stopped, that is the worse part it, but at least it doesn't smell no where near as bad as it did.

She's also had a whole day of antibiotic, so I'm hoping for more improvement tomorrow...Thanks again guys for your support...it means as lot.

Thats really positive, I guess the vets where happy. Everything crossed here, fingers and paws for a speedy recovery Xx

Poor thing. >< Sounds like you're doing everything you can to help her and it sounds like it's paying off. Good luck to you both!

Very pleased to read that Caley is still making quiet progress, Rocky sends her a big Rocky size hug ><

Thanks for keeping us updated...we've been worried for you! Glad she's making progress, sounds like your doing everything you can to keep her comfortable

Hugs from me and Shéara ><
