Are you in Dallas???

Skink Reviewed by Skink on 02-28-2006. Pet Emergency: PLEASE HELP!!! This is a little long, but PLEASE bare with me.... My girlfriend has a puppy that I've been keeping at my house, because she can't have pets in her apartment. The dog has been staying here for a few months now. When it first got here we kept it inside. My mom was saying that it had worms so we had to put it outside. I never saw the worms in her feces or anything at first. Anyhow, we put the dog outside in a fence. She was fine up until the past few days. My cousin, who also stays here, got Rating: 5

i just found the one on greenville ave. i'm calling now.

Her stool is very runny. Her urine has an orange-ish tint to it. She's been very lethargic. I believe we do have some pedialite. She has been drinking though, so I didn't know if she would still dehydrate or not. I cannot make her drink for anything, but when my girlfriend tries, she will drink. I think it has something to do with that other dog not letting her eat. (she doesn't do much when I'm in the room with her)

Ok. Give her NOTHING with milk in it. Her urine is showing a loss of ketones, like if a human was starving, that's what color their urine turns. Give her the pedalite. Stick your finger in it and let her lick it off your finger. If she doesn't lick it off your finger, use an eyedropper and put some in the side of her mouth and gently rub her throat. Care for her tonight as you would an infant. Wrap her in a blankie and cuddle her. Give her the pedialite and maybe some baby food. Warm up some beef or chicken baby food and stick your finger in it and try to get the puppy to eat some.
I'm keeping her in my thoughts. You too.

i just got off the phone with the emergency animal clinic. i was told that they will NOT treat her. they said all i can do is turn her over to the city and they will put her to sleep. i don't have baby food, nor the money to buy any. all i have is regular dog food and water. and the pedialyte. should i wait it out and see if she can make it til wednesday? she's looking pretty bad and i don't want to watch the poor thing die.



...FUCK. nevermind. we DON'T have pedialyte. it's pediacare cough and cold.
what to do?????

pedalite shit it need a vet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[BigHomie]

There are many in your area... don't stop at one, keep calling places

Ok, I don't know how an emergency vet can tell you to just put her to sleep without even looking at the dog! Keep calling emergency vets until one agrees they'll see it....

[tootsie roll]

Fuck the phone.
Wrap her up and take her to the er.
Damn, they have to help her!
