well back from the vet and not so good. Doc thinks my little girl has lyme disease. They are taking tests tonight and letting me know how she is tomorrow. Wish her luck.


Hang in there!!! :) Lyme disease is typically cureable with antibiotics. Keep us posted.

I just got off phone with vet again. They wanted to keep her another night. She wasn't doing so good this morning. Definately lyme disease tests show. He said she was doing much better tonight she is walking some now and he wants to do some more tests to make sure it isn't in her kidneys. I put tick stuff on my dogs but he says only use frontline and I will never ever use anything else but anymore. My pore baby must be so lonely without us. I miss her sooo much. I am going now to get frontline for my other two babies. I don't know what I would do without her I have been so worried all day. Thanks for all the cheer it really helps.

How's your baby doing today? I hope you can bring her home soon, but it sounds like she's in good hands right now. Keep us posted. Sending lots of hugs your way and many boxer kisses to your baby from Macon. :)

I'm so sorry to hear your baby isn't feeling good, hopefully the meds will make her feel better soon!
Frontline is definitely the way to go in your area, there's nothing better. I was a vet tech in the MD/DC area for 5 years and Lyme's is rampant, the highest incidence is in Rockville, second is the Eastern Shore. I had a horrible problem with ticks on my dogs until Frontline was invented. Remember though (with Frontline) the ticks won't die immediately, they won't attach long enough to transfer the disease but fall off and live for a few hours. That's when you find them crawling around the house or on you. It doesn't mean that the Frontline didn't work, it just takes a bit.

Well It's been a long weekend. I picked my little girl up Saturday from vet. She spent two nights there poor little girl. She is on 600mg antibiotic and is feeling much better. She is starting to play with her sister again which is a great sign. I was so worried about her but she seems to be doing good. She has a follow up appointment today. Thanks for all the warm wishes and getting my little girl back to health.
