Poorly pup

[Britestar]

Poor 10 month old pup had not been well last couple days.

Off his food, not full of beans, but no vomiting or loose poops.

Just very flat. Temp has fluctuated from 38.4 to 40.6.

Was at vets today for work up. Blood show nothing abnormal, some sent away for crp. Hopefully back tomorrow.

Nothing on xray, guts look ok. Nothing on physical exam. Occasionally cries if you touch him.

Nothing worse than a sad collie pup.

Poor pup, keeping fingers crossed they find something easily treatable and he feels better soon xx

O no, sorry to hear he is poorly. Hate it when something is wrong, wish they could talk. Wishing him a speedy recovery.

Hope something easily fixable can be found, give him a gentle cuddle from me. xx

SRMA?

Mine started exactly the same.

High temperature.

Pain become more apparent after a few days.

Bending the head down towards the chest usually shows up pain in SRMA.

My boy was stretching a lot. He would sleep on my bed, but if I moved in the night, he would yelp.

It one of the possibilities. Well see what the crp comes back at.

Both vet and I noticed the odd lame step, which can also be a symptom.

I hope she feels brighter today. Scary times for you.

Any better today?

 

[Jenko109]

The BC is one of the breeds thought to be more predisposed.

I don't know much about bloods, but they ran bloods on my boy both at the GP vets and at the specialist vets and they were always normal.

A spinal tap was what gave the diagnosis.

I hope everything is going okay for your pup x

Barky sharky is back .

Full of beans, playing with his spaniel friends full on.
Isn't that interested in food still, and getting the ABs and paracetamol down him is a bit of a battle.

Hoping crp results will be in today. Temperature is now normal.

Even better, surgery submitted his insurance claim Tuesday pm after I collected him, they are paying out tomorrow! Very impressed with Agria.

 

[Britestar]

Any better today?

Sorry, working all day, busy all evening. Didn't go on here

 

[Britestar]

CRP has returned high, so going in for a repeat test.

Hopefully just an infection that has been sorted by the ABs , and this one will come back lower.

Any news?

Keep thinking about your dear pup and hoping for a positive outcome x
