Lizzy Update....Again....

I keep wanting to post about other dogs......but this is Lizzy's blog and she is number one. She'd been on the enzymes for about a week and a half......and of course I was hoping they would do the trick. The fact is , not much changed. It still looked like she wasn't processing much so we went back to the vet yesterday. Looks like she is processing about 25% of what she takes in. After this amount of time that won't change. I can give her anything to drink or eat.....but 75% will not provide nutrients. The great thing is that she weighed exactly the same as she had two weeks ago....that is a huge plus. She still loves her 2 mile walks each day.....but we don't jog anymore. She still plays with the others.....but not terribly long from now that won't be the case. Just keeping her happy as long as I can......so far no pain pills needed.

These were taken the day before she went to A&M in August. She was not a happy camper....whining the whole time.....we did have everyone in the store come back and see what was happening.....Denise and I assured them there was no nefarious activity!!!!
Please keep my girl in your thoughts.......we have run out of options.....so hope for the best.....

  1. Thank you for the update. I am very happy to hear that she has not lost any more weight. I sure wish she was processing more than 25% but, I think that's more than you thought was being processed.

    Even though she protested vocally, she was very good and held still while we "tortured" her. She is a sweet girl and she is lucky to have a mama that loves her as much as you do.
