Hi everybody its Freddie and Mummy dogs dads .
Sunday evening Teddy bear (who is the father of all our babies and Mummy dogs life partner who we lost 4 weeks ago) had a fit in our kitchen we thought he was chocking on something so i did first aid and mouth to nose to bring him back his mouth was blue and he had glazed over I really thought we had lost him but with the rescue breaths was enough air to bring him back ! As you could imagine we are beside ourselves wrapping him in cotton wool so to speak ! Then last nite at 1.38 am I woke hearing something hitting the cupboard I turned the light on and he was having a bad fit I had to grab his tongue because he was choking again then when he was coming out of it he made 2 noises that made our blood curdle it was horrible. He is 14 We know he is old I took him to to vet today (I rang my vet sunday nite ) took bloods and urine get the results tomorrow so now we have the chose of medication to control the seizures but we are very unsure about the side affects ect ! The other path we could take is the natural one I have a friend that has a great naturapath ! WE ARE CONFUSED IN WHAT TO DO IT IS ALL ABOUT HIS QUALITY OF LIFE WE ARE OPEN TO ANY SUGGESTIONS ! Warren and Chris scared ,worried and confused ![]() |

4 nights NO seizures we are so so happy and relived .Hopefully we have stabilized him with the fluid treatment ,He is eating his new diet drinking by him self playing with the other dogs ,barking at the door,its great.We still watch him closely monitoring him all the time.We have an appointment with a naturopath who works with animals she sounded great on the phone and told me she can definately help build up his kidneys and immune system with natural herbs ect..This is working in conjunction with our wonderful vet!.We will take more bloods probably Tuesday so we will know more after we get his results.Our vet who we trust impeccably has said there is really know guide to what might happen as every animal responds in different ways to treatment but the main thing was to stabilize him so we hopefully we are over the first hurdle.Will keep you all posted but once again thank you all so much your support as always has been fantastic ! If anyone has any advice on kidney failure or has been thru this we would luv to hear about it
