I've posted about this before, but Barney is now nuts. I mean, he has SO much energy, bouncing all over the place, knocks us over, doesn't care who is in his path, will bound down the stairs misses the last 3 steps. We have wood floors so he just slides constantly into wall, many times completely flattening himself onto the floor and sliding another 4 feet or so. The energy is just out of control to me it seems. Especially with his bad hips. He's been on thyroid meds for almost a year now. We just had his levels tested again last week and they said that his thyroid levels were still low and to up his dosage. I'm a little scared to, given how active he's become on a dose that is too low. Could it be that I'm just not used to having a dog with energy and this is normal? Do you think raising his dose will make him crazier? Or better? Also, we've almost doubled what we're feeding him as he was constantly on the search for food...AND at the vets he only weighed 77 pounds! He's been as much as 100 (which is too much, but I feel like 77 is too low, although the lower end range should be better for his hips). Any thoughts? |
