Hi,
I have a 7 month old Border Terrier Bitch. Tuesday night i picked her up from a Dog Day Care Centre (i have used them before) there was no waggy tail or excitement at seeing me at all (she normally wees when she sees me). Anyways i brought her home after doing the horse and she still was very quiet and making grunting noises.
I had a look over her and noticied that all her paws were weeping and cut open (around and inbetween pads) so i bathed them in warm salty water.
Yesterday she was still very quiet but not as bad. Last night i went and picked her up from my friends as i had been at college after work. I noticed straight away something wasnt right. She was frothing at the mouth, twitching, shaking and chewing her tongue.
I called the vet straight away and took her there. By this time she couldnt walk 4 steps before her body twitched and she started frothing and catching her breath. Vets have done blood tests and came back fine other than high glucose levels. Shes been in all night and they are doing more tests today.
I just wondered if anyone has had a similar experience?
She is normally a very healthy happy little thing and it was horrible to see her like that.
Thankyou
