pneumonia

my eldest dog has got pneumonia. :cry: She's nearly 12 its been just over a week now with no signs of improvment. She was in the vets for 4 days and is now home but on complete rest she has to be kept quiet. Ifeel such a bad mum at the moment having to force a cocktail of pills down her neck each morning and evening. her temp is still at 103 her heart has enlarged and her white cells are up. Ifeel so useless not being able to help her as she is really struggling to breathe. i seen her x-rays there not a pretty site the vet said that he hadent seen a dogs lungs this bad and still living 8O but she is a stubourn old girl. i know that it will be along time for her to recover. but it breaks my heart seeing her this way.

Poor baby, such a worrying time. Wishing that all goes well and a speedy recovery. Hugs from us all.
Give her a rub for me, and I offer you an internet hug (((hug))).
I'm so sorry she's sick.... it can be so hard to see our loved ones ill...
I hope she feels better soon.
The poor baby! :cry: I always feel worse when my dog is sick than I do when a family member is sick, because the dogs can't understand what's going on. I hope she feels better soon! (((((hugs)))))

Hi,

I haven't much experience with this but wanted to offer my support. I hope she is on the mend soon and wish I could give her a belly rub.

Take care of yourself too!

We send you all the positive energy we can muster! :)
:( I hope she proves people wrong and recovers fast! So sorry to hear!
Awww....poor baby! I'm so sorry she's sick. I really hope she gets to feeling better soon. Take care of yourself, too, and give her a belly rub from me.
thanks everyone but at the moment she is getting worse wuth her breathing. so it will be back to the vets tomorrow :cry:
Awww. . . That is so sad. I hope she feels better soon. :(
not a good update she has been taken in again. the vet is going to repeat the x-ray to see whats going on with the lungs. As at the minute she now has fluid in her stomach and they think her heart is starting to fail. :cry: so just waiting on a phone call to decide the next step. If her heart is failing then she will be put to sleep as its heart breaking to see her suffering the way she is.Thats been almost two weeks now and no signs of improvement. i just cant bear to see her this way :cry: She has brought so much joy to my life. weve been through some really rough times but she has always been there for me. So i think out of love for her the kindest thing will be putting her to sleep. to end all her suffering. Lets just hope the vet phones with some good news.
Extra prayers and good thoughts are being sent!!!
Lots of sheepie (((HUGS))) AND kISSES
:cry:

Hi Boobaby,

I am heartbroken as I read your post and I'm so sorry. In your earlier post, although you must be grieving terribly you know logically what is the best decision. We will all support you in your choice and how much you love her to do what is best for her. It is one of the hardest choices to make and it's done with love in mind.

I send all my love to you at this difficult time.

Marianne and the boys
:( :( :( :(
I know what it must feel to have your beloved sheepie with pneumonia, Luque had a mild case just when she was delivered to us and that nearly killed her, but thans God she's fine now...

Hope she will overcome it, our prayers are with you.
