Hey there! Gosh, I haven't been on here in forever. A little back story - our 11 year old boxer furbaby, Asia, has been having seizures since she was very young, maybe a year or two old. They used to happen once a year and gradually progressed to probably twice a year. This year, she had...

I forgot to mention, we were in the process of getting dressed to take her to the ER when this happened, so I do plan on calling her vet tomorrow to talk about this little episode.

Wow! I have not been here in forever - way too long!! Anyway, I have a question! Asia has seizures but tonight something a little different happened. Normally, she will fall and kick her legs and she will pee everywhere. Tonight she didn't pee. I don't know, it just felt different. I know...

This, exactly! That is exactly how I'm feeling! Why did they think to call after it had already been given to her? They did have her hooked up to an EKG and they apparently told Mark that it seems as though she has an enlarged heart (something I didn't think an EKG could tell you?), but we...

OK, I'm on the bandwagon! See my post for details, but seriously! Our regular Banfield vet has never used ACE on Asia (she points it out to me on the paperwork every time). I believe her now because the vet we never use (our normal one was out of town) did surgery on her today and used ACE...

I just got home from class. :( My poor baby can't keep her eyes open! She has about a six inch cut on her left side with a tube sticking out, and about a four inch cut on the right side of her neck. There was another post going around here about Banfield and how they use ACE. Oh my, I cannot...

Aww! When we leave for weekends, I usually leave a two page long list of how to take care of Asia! Everyone already knows, but it makes me feel better! I have OCD, but I think this is just being careful! :)

Wonderful news!!! Hey guys! I checked this post last night from my phone which is why I didn't post back, so here I am! I did give her a HUMONGOUS hug from everyone before I left for work this morning (my hubby had to take her to the Dr., which was probably a good thing, ha)! Soooo ...

Haha! I gotcha! I am sometimes slow to catch those things! smashicon She will eat her treats and people food (I'm guilty, ha!), but not her new food! We had some of her old food left, so we gave her some of that and she wouldn't eat that, either, which is why I thought maybe she just wasn't...

Thank you for thinking of her! I haven't thought to check her with a comb, but since her first surgery, I have checked her for lumps every day with a nice rub down! She is actually maybe eating a little worse? I'm not sure if I am making excuses for her, or just trying to think positive, but...

Good to know! Thanks for that info! I love online shopping! :)

For a visual, this is about where it is. The lump in her neck is by far our main concern. http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a219/haleyjane9/lump.jpg

OK, about this lump on her neck. It is about half way down her neck, in between her ear and shoulder. Is this lymph node territory? I'm really worried and our vet isn't open until tomorrow ... Like I said before, she hasn't been eating as well (although that could be because of the new food)...

Oh, goodness, I'm so sorry that this happened, but I'm so glad she is ok! I'm also sorry you had this problem with Banfield! We have used them since Asia was 10 weeks old (she is six years now) and have never had any problems with them, although I know many people who unfortunately have! It...

Ah! I was at Old Navy on Friday and they were out of larges and extra larges! They do have really cute things for dogs! :)
