Hello: I am in need of assistance. I have a little tri cavalier who is just turning 1 year old. She has always been a picky eater but about 3 months ago she started refusing to eat. I tried force feeding her and trying different things to entice her to eat but nothing seemed to help. I took her to my vet and she found ulcers on the top of her throat(soft palate area). She did blood work and it was perfect. The girl had very little swelling of the lymph glands but not a lot. She seems in perfect health except for these ulcers. The first thing the vet did was have me take her off chicken in case she was allergic to it and that was causing the ulcers. This did not help. Then she was put on antibotics for 10 days. Still nothing. My vet and a second vet from the office looked at her and can not seem to find a reason for the ulcers. The next step is to do a bioposy of the ulcer which I am leary of doing since she is not healing from the ulcers she may not heal from the operation and it would put a further strain on her imune system. Has anyone had anything like this? Any suggestions of how we can proceed? thanks Melva
