i'm so frustrated that i'm going to try and keep this short. i have an 8yr old spayed gsd. she has hd but never any other sickness or ailments.
its been almost a week since she's had a solid poo. tuesday night i come home to find freshly regurgitated dog food and several puddles of diarrhea in the house (NEVER happens). wednesday she ate nothing but chicken, rice & a bit of acidophilus. thursday no appetite at all and diarrhea had then progressed to what looked like 90% blood. activity = normal. water intake = normal.
by now you're saying "what is this girl thinking - take her to the vet!!!"
done!
friday between two vets (wasnt able to see my regular vet as soon as i'd liked and i was afraid of an intestinal obstruction) she's had xrays, complete blood panel & a fecal. surprise surprise - everything came back "normal" and/or "negative".
her appetite has returned but she's still having the bloody diarrhea. not AS bloody as yesterday, but still not in the least bit solid.
what now?
experiences? advice? homeopathic recommendation?
i only wish i had a billion dollars to have an exploratory procedure done, but i dont.
