dog probs again

[hellosunshine]

ive not been contributing much recently as 3 yr old dag had stopped eating/drinking started being very lethargic and we had 2 days of shivering,and sometimes she swings her head from side to side.


took her to the vets yesterday,hr,pulse,lungs etc FINE,he gave her an antiin flamatary and some rehydration sachets im syringing into her mouth,


NO improvement.stopped shivering really.so ..................what now???

how long do virus' take to pass their way through???


managed to get her to eat a weeny bit of chiken last night,which she has since sicked up..........

Is her temp. normal (100.5 - 102.5 F)?

Did the vet pull blood for a chem/CBC?

Shivering can also be caused by pain, did your vet check her spine for problems? Several back pain will cause dogs to stop eating, to tremble, etc.

Keep us posted and I hope she feels better soon.

could it be a form of food poisoning? you said your dog was 3 yrs old, that's young...

Shivering makes me think poison too - my first corgi was poisoned when she ate mouldy walnuts shells the squirrels had buried.

Make sure your vet takes blood and has her kidney function checked out- ESPECIALLY with the recent pet food contamination issues going on.
