Just wanted to let you all know that the vet visit with our old guy turned out informative and helpful. Actually, it wasn't as bad as I feared; it would seem that dogs can get IBS or irritated intestines which causes other problems. I really appreciate our vet how understands financial constraints and respects our decisions. We came home with pro-biotics and antibiotics for our Reggie; this will get him back on the mend quickly. He has always been a nervous dog and sensitive to food and stress which are two things that can cause these problems. Hopefully he will turn around totally within a day or two. Thank you all for your kind thoughts.

    I had to come check and see what the vet said. Good! I'm glad he is going to be better. It's hard to have those we love sick, even if they are furry friends.

    Thank you for stopping by All Gods Creatures. I hope you will come back and join to follow. I look forward to getting to know you.
    I pray your old guy will get better, soon. I have 4 dogs. My elderly cocker's cancer has just come back. We are enjoying what time we have with her.

    Hi Noreen,
    We all take Pro-biotics here. Both the animals and the people. They have made a world of differents for me.
    Thanks for your visit.
    Blessings, Fern

    I am glad, Noreen, the vet found out what was bothering Reggie. Sometimes dogs or cats have symptoms similiar to humans and their normal balance(homeostasis) goes off course.
    Hugs to you,
    Miriam
