Title: Brekke has been hospitalized since 8 pm...
Post by: Brekkesmom on August 28, 2007, 01:53:41 PM
last night, and we could sure use some rays.  She was bleeding and I didn't know where it originated.  I put her on my lap to drive downtown, and she bled all over my lap - got her in asap to emergency.  Blood panels and x-rays - overnight stay with ivs - picked her up this morning and she is at her regular vet.  They'll feed her in an hour and I can check back at 4.  We sure could use some rays...

Julia, I have had you and Brekke on my mind since you told me this morning.  Frida and Willy are sending lots of prayers and rays too.  You left before I had the chance to send you more super special rays.  Call me or email me if there is anything you need.

Well, I went to feed her at 5, and they said if she ate with no diarrhea, I could take her home.  She REFUSED to eat more than a 1/16 of a teaspoon, and when I tried to get her to eat a bit more, she let loose a flood of blood, :eeew: so, I cleaned myself up, the tech cleaned the floor, and she stays overnight at least!    :confused: 

Oh, treat box 4C is ready to go, but I haven't made it to the post office for obvious reasons... and did I mention that Rick has been to the emergency room 3 of the last 6 days, and now Brekke?

Does the vet know what was causing the bloody stool?  Was she still curious and alert when you saw her?
Title: Re: Brekke has been hospitalized since 8 pm...
Post by: David C. on August 28, 2007, 08:04:44 PM
Sounds like hemhorragic gatroenteritis.   The vet is probably the best place for her right now.   It can be very nasty if left untreated.   Max-angel suffered a bout of this when he was 5 1/2 years old.   He became severely dehydrated.   Luckily, I did take him to the emergency vet, where they put him on IV fluids.   After that, he had to eat a prescription diet for a week IIRC.   The good news is that he suffered no long term ill effects from it as he lived to the ripe old age of 17 years 7 months.   I am sure Brekke will pull through just fine.

Hi, everyone!  Yes, Delia - last night when I put her dish down, she didn't come over ... not typical dachsie-behavior at all.  I bent down to pick her up and there was a small puddle of blood - maybe 1/4 teaspoon.  That's when I checked her over, prodding and poking to see if there was a sting, a bite - whatever.  Nothing showed up, and no bleeding anywhere.  I brushed and combed out some tangles and checked her over again - still nothing.  Then we got into the Vue and I slowly began to feel moist and warm where she was sitting on me.  Then I would say it was probably 1/4 cup of blood and mucus...
