Snowie

[edzbird]

Love and lambies for you and Snowie. His vet does sound very sensible and can see through his itchiness to his otherwise still joyful approach to life.

 

[Granca]

Lots of for Snowie. Thinking of you.

I’m so sorry that poor Snowie is so uncomfortable right now. It’s so hard to see our beloved dogs in distress. You are doing everything you can for him, please try not to take it more than a day at a time and enjoy the little things as you can. Sending hugs and lambies

Thank you everyone. Again, means so much to have your kind words of support.

It’s exhausting. Physically and emotionally. Up every night when he’s desperately scratching and rubbing his face. Then needing to go out to wee. Every night, at midnight and again 3am. Then during the day, trying to stop him rubbing his face raw. I’d love a full-time carer for him!

And to think what he must be feeling. The constant itchiness. You’d think the extra dose of prednisone would kick in. I’m told dogs get a tolerance and you need higher and higher doses. We’ve found a damp cloth wiped over his face is soothing and he eventually falls asleep.

Sorry for only catching up now. So sorry to hear Snowie is so uncomfortable. I hope the higher dose of prednisone begins to help him. It’s devastating seeing them suffer.

It sounds so difficult for both of you. Exhaustion times ten. I hope you can somehow take care of yourself as well as you take care of Snowie.
