All is going ok... Mauwsie is getting better. She has not had any important high fevers anymore so I am confident there is no risk of distemper.
The diarrhea, due to the use of Duphalac to help her liver, is better as I have lowered the amount of Duphalac so that problem is solved too.
Just remains a little cough that will be checked out tomorrowmorning
Fot the rest the pictures say it all.
She gets her daily medication and she loves the torchsessions.
1 less good thing though... the little girl is starting to bound with my pack and myself... my neighbour told me she started to hawl and cry after leaving her at their house for the daily visite.
It s time to start finding the perfect adoptive family for her before long.
Yep suddenly she was there in my bathroom... An opportunity to learn something new At the neighbours
A little torching of the wound, standard- and tingpoints
And then time to go to bed
She has not met the horses in person yet, but she will...soon
More info in the morning... she is doing better now but not out of the Woods yet and is having heavy diarrhea right now and got some stomach pain, but we can handle that... I just don t want any high fever or sneazing please
On one side because in the end you do worry so you don t sleep as deep as otherwise
On the other hand because she called me several times at 1.50 at 2.54 at 6.13... in the end we just stayed up.
And then of course it rained and stormed and we had soooo much rain overnight
Pictures and all the rest of the story have to wait till after midnight, till after I get back from the vetcourse. Do not worry, she is with me and was at the hospital area surrounded while I am on second floor in the congresarea, so she is never alone.
She was seen by the top vet and according to the sympthoms it could be.... Distemper (fever, convulsions, and more) but he did an Echo too of her heart and liver etc and it could be a liver problem too so we stay positive and start with Duphalac 2x a day.
As you know this is not my dog but I helped another person Sharon who took this animal from the street. I have 17 rescued animals at home.
I will do everything I can but I need your help ... if we all chip in obe way or the other.
I have not paid the bill from the OP yet as the promised help did not all arrive yet.
If Faith, Mauwsie has Distemper all my rescues are at risk, eventhough they have been vaccinated when the were a puppy. I will die myself if any of them all get sick or die because of this.
Sorry have to back to the vetscongress now, staying positive and taking Mauwsie with me
PS VEt not impressed Mauwsie tried to bite him... Me very happy though Mauwsie getting more confident... she wagged her tail again today when I picked her up after the morningsession at the congres.
Am I uploading the news of the day on this blog with Mauwsie lying on my lap.
Suddenly she started having little convulsions ... first I thought she was dreaming lively (bad dream) but then I realised she was not.
As soon as it stopped, she did not move anymore and laid there quietly lifelessly... I cald her name, nothing. I lifted her skin in the neck, nothing. I did not see her breath anymore. Then i lifted her head up and when I let it loose it just fell down (in my other hand of course). So I gave her a shake to get her conscieus back.
Damn that was really frightening. Of course I informed the chief of the clinic straight away. Now, no more stress for tonight and leaving her in peace to sleep.
Tomorrow morning first stop at the vetsclinic having her totally checked out, just to be on the safe side.
Edit: this was a day of a very big UP, her tail waggling for the first time while walking with the other dogs, and the biggest DOWN, frightning me like this... I want NO MORE of these days !!!
Last night the fever came up again... 40,30 so we went back to the icepackings in between the legs and under the ingle.
This morning she only had 39.3 which is acceptable. As part of the treatment we need to have her blood flow well in the body so about 10x a day I have her do a little walk. It helps her body and at the same time it helps her to get to know new things Isn't she looking better already ? Having a look at the horses
Faith also had a visitor this morning. Addi who helpt me to bring Faith from Pedreguer came to visit her. For these pics and more pictures, please go to our Facebookpage Whispering Ranch
For the 3rd night in a row sitting in the sofa with rescue puppy Faith Mausie who having a fever again at night. She sure knows how to touch me as I had not spent an evening in a sofa in over a year or 2;) It is good though...let it all out little girl. All the bad dreams and bad memories. You are safe here with us
she is getting better... and she is a real introvert. Thanks to our intuitive communication relation I know exactly what her limits are and what is bothering/troubling her.. For those who do not practise this... you will see at the white of her eyes when she feels scared or unsecure for example.
As part of the therapy we decided that she would go each day for an hour or two to my neighbours Tony & Lin Bray, so the litlle mousie would make lots of positive interactions with humans.
Once home again she dared to go in Boomers new orthopedic bed... but just for a minute though.
She preferred the security of her bench (with the door open of course !!! )
We were at the vetclinic again this morning with this little mousie as her fever came up again hitting the 40 s.
Just to be on the safe side, although I knew she could have these fevers, due to the infestation of parasites.
Regarding the remarks on FB : To explain it as simple as I can, parasites attack the immunesystem of the body and that is one of the reasons why we have to deworm/deparasite our animal on a regular basis.
As an example: a puppy is deparasited before we vaccinate it as parasites cause a lower immunesystem and so we want the animal to be free of parasites and have a stronger immunesystem before you vaccinate it which would also lower the immunesystem.
The same is here, before any operation you want the animal to have the best and strongest immunesystem, and therefor your vets want you to deworm your animals on a regular basis.
Sometimes, like in this case there is no time to wait till the animal is topfit again : in this case repairing that leg was more urgent than all the rest as the bones start the healingproces immediately and you don t have the time to deworm and then wait for another week for the immunesystem to recuperate.
Sometimes you HAVE to make a CHOICE : in this case there was no choice... As the other vet where she was first did not deworm her or do anything for that matter: The OP simply had to be done a.s.a.p. and therefor I made the decision to have that OP already on Monday although that day the old owner still would have had a say.
This dog is getting al the necessary help and much more... she is not a single moment alone, I have done several veterinarion courses, I am a qualified photonic practitioner and I have certificates as a dogtrainer and -dogpsycho. I therefor cover both situations: the physical and the mental.
When the fever comes up she gets some ice wrapped in between the legs and under the ingle.
She received antibioticshots of Synulox yesterday and today apart from other medication
She started a fever last night so I checked and she had 39.8.
Called the vetclinic to see what she had gotten as injections so I could see what we could do.
As she already had had all she needed, we went my way... meaning torching the little mouse the standardspoints which include the point that releases aspirine in the body.
Apart from that I took a cold gel-icepack that I wrapped well and put in between her legs...
and that is how we spent some time on the sofa untill the fever went down.
During the night I realized that I need to be there for her for a longer time eventhough I am not home this w.e.
I will find a way to make this work, even take her with me to the vetcourse this w.e.
That will also give us more time to find the right fosterer, the right adoptant and now it just leaves us with finding the rest of the money to pay the vetbill.
More info around 12.00 as I am off to the vetclinic with her !
YES driving away from Hospital Veterinario JG with Hope !!!
I went to the vets for this girlie today...
She was washed with dry shampoo to get her a bit cleaner and less smellier. Then she got another treatment against flees
Then we went for a walk and once again I could see how she would try to hide under a car...damn that girl is so damn scared of the world surrounding her Even in the car she would try to hide but then she saw me, yes me and that gave her some confidence
Puppy is at the Whispering Rescue Ranch to recover
I don t know what to say really. It has been a long time since I have been so disgusted
At the hospital when let loose she would go into a corner to hide. When you go to walk her, she tries to hide under the cars. When you let her loose in the garden she only wants 1 thing... Hide away so nobody would find her.
She knows only 1 thing very well, and that is to make herself as small as possible in a hiding place.
I have had some sad cases here, but this almost breaks my heart as she is only 4.5 months old.
Here she is lying in an open bench as she feels safe there. The door is open so she can get out when she wants to get out.
I went to visit my neighbour with her and the other WRR dogs so she would find out that there are more good people in this world. Boomer was not impressed Where is that stranger ? Cheyenne was OK with sharing Tony s attention Boomer was not Hey are we going home ? At home...Tommy connecting with puppy Tonight I had to go to the physio ...of course I did not want puppy to be alone at home so she went to my neighbours yo learn and find out that there are still good humans in this world...young and old
Faith-Hope: 24/11 Today I was a t the vetclinic at 11 am. I saw
the same scenario as yesterday and the day before... still very afraid
when you arrive, but adapting quickly. Since Friday I have still
not heard her bark 1... a shockcollar in the past ???? You must be
kidding (Getting angry again). I torched the little lady to prepare her
for the OP an what would happen and meanwhile spent some undemanded time
with her. Just before 1 pm it was her turn: the catheder was put in and with propofol she went to sleep.
While opening the leg Juan could see this was not a recent broken femur
and he had quite some work to clean both parts up and to make a perfect
fit. Of course he made the correct surgical decision as this is a pup with bones that still are growing. Thanks to the use of the correct products, Hope did not have any problems to wake up slowly from the aneastesia. At 3 pm she was totally awake and trying to stand up. I torched her once again against pains and to stimulate cell regeneration. After a brief stop ver at home to put the rescuehorses in the paddocks before dark, I went back to the clinic till 8 pm.
The girl is doing fine and she has made a click in her head... tonight
she realised we are here to help here and she should not be afraid. I have made the decision to take her home tomorrow. For once nobody has offered yet a fosterhome
Secondly she really needs more care than normal during these forst days as the OP was heavier than normal.
I think she has the best of the best with me 5hahahahahahah) as I can
treat her with the torch and take those pains away and stimulate
healing. She has to go to her fosterhome on Friday though as I am away at a congress next weekend during the day. More on this girl tomorrow
She is doing OK ! Aitor said she is starting to show her character. She is a little afraid of many things but adapts really quick. I did not find any more flees, so the treatment has done it's work.
While Aitor and I were treating & cleaning the scin around her
nails (which was black) she did not really like it and gave a small
puppy bite (just a touch, no biting) to Aitor and kisses on my hand to
me, hahahahahahahaa. I torched her again today as she just loves it. I took some video and am uploading it. Enjoy a few pictures meanwhile
We were at a fair yesterday to try and sell the famous Figs marmelade
with vanilla, we had aromabeads with essential oils with us and all the
Mosjies that Mosjie-Mosjie had donated to us. AT the same time Eva made publicity about the Photonic Therapy and gave some torchsessions to the needy
