jake not very well

jake had op tibial crest transposition about 4/5 weeks ago been ok up untill now.
last 36 hrs been crying all time he also had an anal rupture but dunt seem owt like that he seems really week i.e won't jump on settee where usually can't get him off, his left side feels week and when stroking him usually gives way on that side.
anyone got any ideas? can't phone vets while 2mora, he seems to have been in wars since he was a pup

I'm sorry but I dont know what it could be, is there another vet you could get in to see today ??

Poor little guy.

If you're that worried, and he really isn't himself, then I'd try phoning an emergency out-of-hours vet & just ask advice.

Sounds like he needs to get to a vet fast !
For a Staffy to be crying a lot there must be something serious - staffys have a high tolerance of pain.
Plz get him seen by Emergency vet - let us know how he gets on x

emergency vets 2-30 fingers crossed

Good luck, hope it goes well

Poor Jake hope all goes well at vets, best to be on the safe side. Xx

been to vets can't find owt serious gave him some strong painkillers brought him home seems worse but got to take him back 2mora

hope he settles ok

Poor thing. I hope he gets well soon! You did the right thing by taking him to the vets.

Poor Jakey ! Hope he settles tonight and gets some rest.

Let us know how he gets on tomorrow x

Hope you get on OK with the vet tomorrow, please let us know how you get on.

he's just stood up now with his back legs looking like he's gunna collapse and moaning loud constantly and doesn't want to know noone dunt look good

Do you have a contact number at the emergency vet to have a chat with someone there ??

been 3 hrs ago thought morphine or other jabs they give him would of kicked in by now his tongue is out a little bit all time won't eat or drink, he's a nervous traveller so vets 18 miles away he changed by time we got there this aft and soon as we got home he gets worse

I think you should phone the emergency vets for advice, let them know how he's acting. The might know why he's doing it.

phoned they said might have an allergic reactions to one of the painkillers but one of them was a long lasting one says looks like we in for a noisy night if he aint better in a few hours we might take him back for a sedation but i dunt wanna do that

I'm sorry Gaz, I don't know what else to suggest to you.

Poor Jake, how is he doing?

just stood stooped crying loudly hate it just hope it wares off

Poor Jake if it keeps on I would be phoning again, I do hope he settles soon.Xx

Yeah he's obviously not doing well, poor love x

I'd take him bk to emergency vet - sounds serious
Maby he's better off being kept in overnight for observation and tests ?

just off back to vets now aint stop whining since 3 pm yesterday and can hardly stand up but won't lay down

Poor little lad, hope the vets can give you some peace of mind, please let us know how it goes Xx

Aww big hugs, hope they get to them bottom of it, keep us updated.

just been to vets can't suss it out saying maybe blood clot to brain gave us some diazy's to see if he can calm down but how do you give em tablets when they not eating, poor lad must be starving gave him a bit of ham with tablet in nearly took my hand off at least he has had a bit of food, was gunna give him steroids but one of the painkillers they give him y/day is still active got to go back 2mora.
hope the active painkiller is the one reacting so when it wares off might be better.
thanks for all well wishes means a lot.
got mother at hospital in morning, son at docs 2night i've got tonsillitus and then dog back to vets 2mora who says life is dull lol

I hope it just turns out to be a painkiller reaction! Hope you and your family feel better soon as well.
