I can diagnose cat illnesses and know how to treat or what the outcome may be, but I've never owned a dog. All I do know is that a pet is as much loved a part of the family as any other member.

Sorry, but I don't even know what breed your dog is.
Mollie, she is a yellow Labrador. Brought her home from Labrador Rescue when she was about 14 months old and was badly treated She was a nightmare at first, but turned into a little star I know more about dogs really than cats, and having worked at the Vets for 8 years, I have picked up a lot of knowledge about illness, and you know what they say about that...little bit of knowledge can be a dangerous thing!

Re: Hatti girl is not well...update

Merz I am sorry to hear Hatti is no better what a worry for you.
I wonder if Hatti might have Urolithiasis a condition Mini Schnauzers are susceptible too..

I hope the cystoscopy shows something so you know what you are dealing with, I always think the worse thing is having a problem and not being able to find the cause.

Thank you Meg. I've just looked at the link you very kindly posted, but she has had her bladder x-rayed and scanned and no stones showed up. Also had sterile urine taken from her bladder and no crystals showed up, but thanks again. At least with the cystoscopy they will be able to see all round and in her bladder, and be able to take biopsies if they find anything.

Yes lass, a little knowledge can be dangerous. I've always had a fear of dogs, but Labradors I've always loved and more recently Border Collies since my brother got one a couple of years ago.

I hate ill-treatment of any animal, so it is good to know that she found a lovely mum like you to take care of her, and love her. Please give her a hug from me as well.

You wouldn't be afraid of my Hatti, Mollie, she is a very gentle girl and just loves everyone....Hug given-she's now getting spoiled

Oh dear, thinking of you; it's heartbreaking when they're ill and in pain. Praying for treatable results.

Re: Hatti girl is not well...update

I do hope Hatti and you have some good news, I know exactly how you feel when your beloved dog (or any pet ) is unwell, we have had the same with our cat.

My thoughts are with you Merz.
