Re: Kali's surgery Update 10/17

Her recovery is going slow. I sometimes wonder if it was best not to get the surgery, but 3 vets have looked at her and said she did. I know that she will start to walk normal and in the last few days she has seemed stronger in her walks in the yard. She goes farther before sitting down to rest. She...

We are glad to hear that it went well with Fiona's surgery. It looks so painful. Give her a big hug and kiss from us.

Kali's surgery--Update 10/17

Kali had her surgery yesterday. When I called to check on her the girl said she was doing find. I asked if she could come home but they had to check with Dr. Jim. She said Kali looks like a bumble bee because they wrapped her in yellow tape. When they called back they said Dr. Jim wanted to keep her...

Re: Possible sarcoptic mange---Update

We are planning on giving him plenty of time to get stronger before he has anything else done. The vet that treated him just suggested that before we let him go to a forever home that we get his shots again. At least he is over the first hurdle.

Zoey has babies

Zoey is Chow mix that we have in our rescue. There is a cat in our neighborhood that keeps having kittens. We have been trying to capture her to get her spayed and then release her. She is a wild one that does not like people. So far this year she has had two litters of kittens that have ended up in...

Re: Possible sarcoptic mange---Update

Last week on Monday Chance had his last shot. He no longer has sarcoptic mange. We have to wait for a while to get him stronger then he can go in to get nuetered and possibly have a couple growth removed from his back. We will have to see what our vet thinks they are and then if they can be removed....

Possible sarcoptic mange---Update

Has anyone dealt with this? There is a Chow/Shar Pei that was brought in as a stray and they are pretty sure this is what he has. He looks like he has been on his own for a while. I wasn't sure about how we would be able to deal with the part of keeping him isolated. I went and looked at him yesterd...

Some of you know that on February 29th Cinnamon (my precious little MiniMe) went to the Rainbow Bridge. We were together just a short year and 5 months and together we fought so hard to keep her here. I have loved all my furkids past, present and future ones but she touched my soul like no other has...

Re: hysterectomy on a 10yr chow

I agree with evryone that if it has been more then 24 hours since her surgery and she is having problems getting up I would call the vet. Did they do blood work before she had surgery? At that age they should have done one before sedating her.
