Ok. I was planning on asking him about it tomorrow when I go up there to see Monster. It kills me to see him in so much pain too. I wish I could do something for him but all I can do is comfort him and that doesn't really do anything for him...

I would ask you vet. She was better so quick. before she had surgery she could not ever walk and cried all the time, she was in so much pain it killed me to see her like that.

Him having surgery scares me soooo much. How much is it? I've been paying for everything so far with my moms credit card...

It worked wonders and she recovered quickly. Start saving you money $$$$ it is not cheap, but it is worth it. My little doxi had surgery and she was much older than your dog.

I feel for you both. Since they think it is a disc, does that mean that they can do surgery to correct it?

They're not giving him steroids or anti-inflammatory meds. They're giving him a muscle relaxant and pain meds.

I am sooooo sorry. The vet will probably put some steroids and anti-inflammatory meds in his IV to do a quick job of taking the pressure off of the spinal nerves. How old is Monster?

In one of your first emails about him screeching in pain, it reminded me so much of when Dolly had the blockage (of rocks) in her intestines. Please keep us posted.

They're keeping him over night and giving him fluids, pain meds, and other meds since he's not eating now and he's in more pain. They'll probably run a dye through him and see if its a blockage then we'll go from there... I feel so bad for him and I wish I could be with him...

He's already doing better. He's walking around the house some but I'm trying to keep him still. He wants to follow me everywhere. I'm not sure if he should be walking around or not. The vet said not to let him play or run around. I've been carrying him outside to go potty and I think he's getting a little tired of being carried around. He backs up when I reach for him now. Its funny, for a dog that wants me to hold him all the time, now its too much.
