    First I had a really crappy day at work. I'm sure everyone has those days, but it just really sucked. Then I call my boyfriend when I got off, thinking my night would get better, and he cancels our date for my work christmas party. lovely. Now I get home, and my dog (who's about 12 years old) has been limping around and it looks like he's getting worse. I think he's dying. I've had him since I was 10 and I can't stand to see him like this. It looks like there's blood on the sheets he sleeps on. I don't know what to do.

    Awwww, that's so sad about your dog. Boyfriends come and go, but a dog, well , he's always there for you. I hope he's going to be OK. Can you get him to a vet tomorrow? Good luck.

    I don't know when I can take him to the vet but I know I'm going to have to take him soon. I'm just afraid they're going to tell me he needs to be put to sleep. When I even think about it it makes me cry.

    I know up here we have emergency vets that are open on weekends.

    Very sorry to hear about your dog. We had to put a beloved cat down recently - kidney failure and he just got worse until one day he could do no more than weakly lift his head when we approached. We bawled like babies most of the day.

    Sorry about your dog, but you need to get him to the vet. I know the outcome might not be pleasant but if he's suffering it's for the best. It's been over a year since my dog passed and I still miss her.

    Yeah, I can think of two emergency vets off the top of my head.

    One on Grissom between Timberhill and Culebra/Tezel with the other on Potranco near 151.

    I just can't afford to take him to an emergency vet. One of my sisters is working at a vet clinic & when I talked to her yesterday she said she would ask the vet there to see him, but she hasn't told me anything yet.

    Sorry bout your dog L'Bones. Hopefully things aren't as dire as you think. I've lost 2 dogs and a cat through the years, and I know how hard it can be. Hopefully you don't have to go through that.

    LB, I am sorry to hear about the sucky day you have had. Guys can be frustrating and having a sick pet is very disheartening. Can't give advice about guys, but keep you dog as comfortable as possible and spend time with him. Take him into the vet asap.
    It is hard when you see your "buddy" not feeling well and when it is time to say goodbye. We are here if you need someone to talk to you.

    Sorry to hear that. One of my dog's is 16 years old and doesn't have much longer to live. I'm not sure if I should put him down or let him live out the rest of his blind/deaf/limping life. Hope your pup gets better.

    Sorry about your dog LB. I hope he will be ok. I hate losing my pets. Hopfully the Vet can do something other than say he needs to be put down.

    Good luck.

    Sorry about your dog (and the rest of your day). Hopefully your dog can be treated and live for pain-free for a few more years.

    Good luck.

    LB - Sorry about your dog. I put down my cat on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving. She was diagnosed with advanced kidney disease in August, and the prognosis was "months". She had four, three were good. It was obvious that it was time to send her on her way. She would only move (slowly) a couple of times a day, and could always be found in the same 3 or 4 spots. She was losing interest in her food. I probably knew 2 weeks before her appt day that it was going to be "the day". She was suffering, and needed release.

    Hopefully it's something minor that can be fixed with some treatment and meds. Man it seems like when it rains it freakin pours sometimes....

    sorry about ur dog...but take it to the vet as soon as you can.

    my 6 year old dog died in my moms arms abotu 1 month ago as we were in a car and and no more than a minute away from the vet.

    He displayed schizo/paranoid signs the day before he died, and my mom and i thought he would snap out of it as he was always an eccentric dog (in a good way) and was always up to no good (the usual eating stuff off the floor that he wasn;t supposed to eat, getting dirty etc.) and he'd always act wierd after he got into this kind of trouble.

    the morning after that day he displayed the schizo/paranoid he couldn;t control his bladder and was zigzagging pattern while he was walking. It was then we decided to take him to the vet. just secs before we got there het went into resperatory (sp?) arrest. my mom ran him into the office and they took him away from us.

    as we were waiting in a room, a nurse comes in and tells us we could take a look at the dog. when he we saw it he looked out of it but was actually breathing normally. The future started to look bright.

    but about an our after that, after we'd taken a bite to eat, the vet called us and told us that he'd got a cardiac arrest and died.

    it's been depressing w/o him cuz he was the funniest dog of the bunch, had funny mannerisms and all that.
