Tipper - adrenal tumor/breathing issues

Patti,
I'm so glad that Tipper is realizing that this is the "good vet's office" and thta you both had a better night.

Daisy acts very calm and runs the whole place when we see the IMS vet, odd that is the only place where she doesn't shake at all.

Patti, I do not agree with Junior's mom. Tipper and Toby absolutely need to be separated ALL of the time. The attack happened when you were home. Tipper has snapped at you before. This is not the first time. Yes, Yorkies are known to be yappers and Buddy always had a lot to say. It's odd, but I miss that now. My friend's very sweet dog, ill dog, attacked and later was removed from the home by animal control. The dog ended up being euthanized. My friend never forgave herself. She knew her dog was unstable, but hadn't taken the necessary precautions. You must protect yourself, visitors to you home and all your precious animals. Big hugs,

Kathy:
They continue to be separated, it is just safer for them both that way. Blessings

Thanks for letting me know Patti. :p This situation has me worried as it is. I don't want anything to happen to any of you. Big hugs,

Hi Everyone:
Not too good of a nite for Tipper. She had a lot of struggling to breathe. It is worse when she first goes to sleep. Today the heat and humidity have returned with a vengeance. So she will not be out after morning. I am hoping to bathe her today. She used to like it, but lately she doesn't. I think she is just plain uncomfortable with her body condition, and the weight of her belly hanging down with no muscle support is bothering her back etc. I am sure the laser helps her with that. She was just such a muscular dog that I am sure she is not understanding what is happening to her body. Just think if all your ab muscles were gone. We would probably be having problems from it too. Well I am off her to get the bath ready for both dogs. It has been really hard to keep them separated, and Toby is so upset with the setup. It just has to be that way. Blessings

Patti, Sorry to hear Tipper did not have a very good night. I hope she will enjoy her bath today.
Hugs to you and Tipper and Toby.

Patti, I just read you're post on Scoop's thread and I wanted to tell I'm sorry you're having Lupus symptoms today. Hope you feel better.
Hugs

I'm sorry Tipper had a lousy night. It's starting to get a little warm here today too. I just switched from open windows to a/c. Trixie needs to be a cool as possible. I'm sorry Tipper doesn't enjoy her bath like she used to, this disease really stinks.
I just read your posts on Keesh's thread and I'm so excited about Lambert Pharmacy. The price on Vetoryl there is the best I've seen so far! Last month I used Dr Foster/Smith @$47 a box which I thought was pretty good but Lambert is way better at $39.90 I'll be ordering from them next week...I need 2 boxes of ten mgs just to get through a month. :(
At least I'll be saving about $20 this time!
Thanks for posting about Lambert!! :D

Ahh, just read about Tipper having a bad night. They sure keep us occupied don't they? Hopefully a bath will make him feel better. Hugs going out to you, big time.

Barbara:
Remember if you buy 2 boxes from Nancy she will ship them free. I love that place they are really cheaper than any where I have found, they are an accredited pharmacy by the board, which is hard to do, and have a veterinary pharmacist right there. They sell lots of other things I found cheaper there too I am just ecstatic for you about Trixies numbers. Keep up the good work and she will continue to do well. Blessings
