So,since Lace came back from VCA on January 25th we’ve seen very pastely like bowels then the evening was good.However though her appetite is good,and drinking water on the 26th she made no bowels.Today,the 27th she did make some,pastey like but has been straining to make.So we called VCA who said Dr Kaya is not in today so Dr Lee Loy(another dr at VCA Lacey has seen before)will call us back.One of the common side effects Lacey has on most meds are diarrhea and so it’s difficult to put her on meds.

04012010:Suspician of UTI
This morning when my mom was taking her meds in the morning Lacey went over to my mom to paw at her while she was taking her medicine.To me,it was signaling to us that she was trying to tell us that “I need meds.Where is my medicine?”was the impression that I got.Still when we checked her vulva this morning it was clear and not red at all.We still called and made a appt.At 11am we went to see Dr Lee Loy because Dr Kaya had the day off & Dr Shoji was in surgery.Along with going to see Dr Lee Loy I typed up her health history from last November-March 30 2010 on dry food & symtpoms.I let them keep the copy since I always write that type of things down.Weight was good.7.10 from 7.11 in March.
Dr Lee Loy said a lot of the symptoms are linking towards a UTI but because Lace did not have anough urine she could not take a sample.Lace was prescribed Clavamox.I did give her some treats earlier this morning & she did have can food for breakfast so I didn’t expect her to eat much for dinner.
She stayed very still for Dr Lee Loy while she did the usual checkings.
This morning she didn’t have a lot of energy & was laying around a lot more.staying on my dad’s lap longer…
When it was dinner time I gave her dry food since Clavamox could cause soft bowels I didn’t want to give her can food.I gave her 1/4 cup of TOTW Bison Formula,Halo’s & Earthborn.She ate about an 1/8 cup after we chopped up some chicken into her dry food.When we showed her the bottle she gave a little wag & accepted the Clavamox(powder form)with very little struggle.Minutes later her energy level is up.Wants to play.Doesn’t lay down as much.Lapping up water,smiling more…
