A Big Scare


Mike and I just got back from the ER with Buffy.
This is a first time for us.
While reading the newspaper and noticed that Buffy was having a hard time to get off
the couch.He kept being hesitant about coming off.
Then slowly got him as his hind leg collapsed and he could not walk.
Then being such an alarmist and told Mike to call the Vet.
He was walking around and his legs continued to collapsed.
I was very nervous and not sure whats was going on.
We call the Vet and told us to bring him in the ER.
This was after five in the afternoon.
Then he seemed to be coming around slowly.
Never the less I wanted him checked out.
We got him to the ER and he was getting better.
Thought that he was having a seizure of some sort.
He had a temp of 104.
Damn we waited so long in the ER and was ready to leave.
Finally this petite woman doctor came asking all sort of question.
She checked him out and said that he seemed to be fine.
Probably has  a muscle spasm.
Right now he is resting and doing okay.
Will have to keep an eye on him and for him to take it easy.
Right!are they serious?
Buffy!he was running around.
Maybe arthritis could be the culprit.
We will see.
Told Mike I could not handle this if anything happen to him.
He was very good in the exams.A little hyper but good.
Mike said,you are too alarmist.
Said to him I am Italian what do you expect?
The check up cost us 92 dollars.
Have you ever been to the ER for animals.
Sit and wait.
Here is it eight o'clock and Mike putting dinner together.
As I look around Buffy crashed in my office.
That was a big scare for me.
For Buffy has been doing so well.
Will keep tab on him.
Mike said,do you want a drink.Yes,a glass of wine will do it.
Good night and Good Luck.
Mike,Buffy,Fredo
Update on him tomorrow.

This happened to our shih tsu. The vet said it was caused from a bulging disc in his back that would paralyze him if it ruptured. We had to not let him jump on and off couch and give him a baby aspirin every morning. Plus the doc put him on steroids for a week

that IS scary!!! yikes. I am glad you went to the vet. I know they are pricey for the ER but I think the peace of mind is well worth it. Glad he is doing better!

That's a big scare. I didn't know dogs at spasms that would cause that.

Hope all will be ok soon

So what was the cause of the temperature? It sees logical to think that something happened to have caused Buffy distress. Keep a good eye on little Buffy, but I know you will.

How scary! I am glad that you had him checked out to make sure that nothing was wrong and to make you guys feel more confident in his health. I hope he feels better soon.

He'll be okay--he just wanted to remind you how important he is to you and Mike!!!

I hope he will be ok Fredo. maybe have his regular vet check him out? sending prayers for Buffy and for you too.

Animal Hospitals are expensive. I know we have had to take Camille before. We are very fortunate that the two of them seem to be doing alright but, you never know. Glad you took him and hope that Buffy is doing much better. How old is Buffy?
