Hope Ugga is feeling better and it is just the gall bladder taking time to come right and hopefully getting off some of the meds will also help. Lots of hugs for you as you keep trying to sort this out!! xx

Another rough night for ugga :(. We tried giving him Ativan to help him sleep (per our vet) but it doesn't seem to be working. We gave him .75 mg at 11:30 and he didn't settle until after midnight (pacing and barking). He got stuck in a corner and I had to turn him around. I put him in his bed and he slept until 4:45. He's been pacing around since :(

Sending prayers, strengthening energies, hugs and belly rubs this morning. My heart is breaking for you all, Jackie. Our little Ugga knows how very much he is loved. Don't ever doubt that, honey.
Hugs,
Leslie and the gang

Sorry to hear that Ugga had another bad night. It is so hard when you don't know what to do to help them settle and get some rest.
Thinking of you
hugs,

Re: Ugga-7yr old french bulldog just diagnosed (calcinosis cutis), epileptic
Jackie I know what you are going through. A couple of years ago Peety started crying and barking every night and could not be consoled in any way. After a week of me literally getting no sleep, (he slept during the day) took him to see the Vet. The vet said he was experiencing night blindness and that is why it was only at night. His BP was also very high. So he prescribed BP meds for hypertension and also clomicom for anxiety. It was only a few days before he was much better. Now I don't know about the night blindness, but he did have hypertension, because at the time, my dad was real sick and Peety and my dad were real close and I think he was upset with people coming in and out all day. So over time (after my dad passed) he returned to normal. But it was so hard because I could not do anything for him during that time. He is no longer on BP meds or anything else so I really think it was isolated to what was going on at the time. It's amazing how astute they are and how things upset them that you wouldn't think of.
It might not be that simple for Ugga, but I wanted to share that because when you described what he was doing I remembered what that was like and I am so sorry Ugga cannot get comfortable. But your love is never far from his mind and he will always return to that. So my dear, just keep doing what you are doing and know that you are absolutely doing your best. Give Ugga a big hug. I'm praying this will turn around soon.
Pat and Peety

Ugga crossed the bridge today. I wish I could say more, I just can't right now. To all of you with Cush pups out there, you should know, this was not Cushings related. He fought for so long and just couldn't anymore. We lost our Newfie last month and now this, we are heartbroken.
