good news with Callie - YorkieTalk.com Forums

I am so very excited! I have great news about Miss Callie Mae! She has been on reconcile sense January 27th because she had broke her tooth in her crate and it was apparently very traumatic for her and even after her tooth was fixed she would not sleep at night and would pant and shake for hours. We had tried everything possible and finally had to go the vet and tell her the problem and let them do a really good check up on her and when that was fine she suggest the medicine. It was a last option thing so we decided to do it. Well she was on a pill and a half and she still would do a little tiny bit of panting at night for a minute or two but she was not eating anything and slept all the time and was even to out of it to play with Sammy so we called the vet who said we could cut back to just one pill. Also there is an arch way that leads to my hallway that has my office on it, my bathroom and then my bedroom well we put a doggy door on my bedroom door and at night I close my office door and put a baby gate up at the entrance to my hallway so she has the hallway, my bathroom and my bedroom to go into. I have her crate and a soft sided dog house in my room and she still shakes a little and pants a weak tiny pant at night but it stops within minutes of her going into her soft sided house and she will go in sleep there for a while and move to her crate (that she has been scared of) and sleep until 10 when I do! She used to only stay in there for a few hours before the doggy door and bark at 5:30am to be let out. She also got her appetite back! She was a little piggy last night and tonight. We had taken her to the vet for grooming and shaking her head Friday and she was down almost 3 pounds! I know things are not perfect but they are getting a whole lot better. I was just so excited I wanted to share!

That's wonderful news. So glad that Callie is doing better and hopefully she will keep getting better until all of that is behind her and you can wean her off the medicine. I know this takes a load of worry off your mind - having Callie happier about things and eating again. Ya'll keep up the good work.

Wonderful!!!!

MandiesMom · 02-17-2013, 09:11 AM

So happy to read this update!! I can't believe she's lost 3 lbs. Wow! Sounds like the meds are working and she is eating again. Hopefully she'll get those 3 lbs back and be healthy and happy again soon. You did all you knew to do and I am so proud of you. You're a great example for everyone..that we need to just keep trying if there is a problem until we find the answer that works. Yay, Callie!!!

That is great news. I sure wish they could talk sometimes to let us know what exactly is going on. She will keep on getting better and will gain the weight back in time.

Awesome news Taylor

Lovetodream88 · 02-17-2013, 09:22 PM

The other night she got up when I had to go to the bathroom and followed me well last night when I got up she didn't follow me and I actually was worried and peaked in her crate at her and she was nice and comfy and then she slept until 11am

I am soooo happy we are making such progress
