Re: The "Go Home, you are so bad, don't talk to me you f*cking idiot" Chat Thread

Congrats indeed :D

Hope everyone is ok.
Sorry I can't be here more, but it simply isn't possible at the moment.
Still a lot of problems with my dog and I'm taking up holidays now and then to go for examinations with him. Hence a lot of job to do when I'm at work.
Worst thing is that they can't find what's wrong with him and he's getting worse every day :sad:
I've seen several vets already and they took ultrasounds, x-rays and did blood tests but no diagnosis yet.
Now they are checking Lyme disease and I hope to have the results tonight or tomorrow.
If it would be that then it's serious but then at least they can start a treatment and then maybe he still has a chance.

Hope all are well here. :hug:
Sorry to hear your dog is still not well martine; here is hoping they figure it out and even if the lyme test is negative they should treat him anyway for it;)

Martine, hope you make it through this one way or another.

Finding myself in the position of having promised to do something today and not being able to do it, makes me feel guilty. Have to find the best way to calm them down safely, I guess.

Horrible news about the dog, Marti, hope they can find a solution as soon as possible.

Thanks all!

Yes Sue, the vet phoned me yesterday that the test result will take at least one more day, but that he wanted to start treatment right away because a negative test is no guarantee at all that he doesn't have it.

Joâo was very sceptic when I told him (he said "speculation again and this means they don't have a clue what's wrong") but when I told him about your post he got more convinced :)
He does show a lot of symptoms of Lyme disease:
- the spleen is a lot too large
- slight anomality in the kidney function
- exhaustion
- sweating & slavering
- infections to ears and eyes that keep coming back after treatment
- stomach problems
- problems with jumping

They will treat him with Amoxicilline 500mg for 1 month.
Only thing I regret is that I'm talking about Lyme disease possibility to the vets since January already (real risk since we live in the woods) but they said that it wasn't the right season for a tick infection...

:hug: Hope it all works out ok for your dog Marti :hug:
Must be so frustrating and upsetting not knowing for certain what the problem is.

AJ... how is your computer now? You've managed to get it booted up now then? Technology sucks sometimes!

Excellent! I am glad you did not have to insist it of them :yeah: Season shmeson; it appears he is showing effects of being bitten long before. Very early on one can miss the first stage of the disease and then with incubation the second and third phase comes out. I hope this is the cause and that the treatment works. The dog may never be perfect for showing again but that is not all there is too it is there:)

I'm not going to show that last sentence to my husband :scared: because it is his best competition dog...

What I have to add is that he only shows the symptoms when he has to work hard during the training. At home or when I take him for a walk, he acts normally.
Also from the outside he seems to be in good health (shiny coat & good muscles) and I guess that's why the vets thought there was nothing serious.
It was only when I took a video of the training and showed that to them that they realized there was something seriously wrong.
If he wouldn't have been a working dog, I wouldn't have noticed it. That's why I'm hoping we are in time to treat it without too many consequences afterwards?? What do you think?

Well I only have experience on people :p
But here is hoping that if he acts normally when not in training that all will be well. I hope it is the Lyme disease as it appears all other avenues have been evaluated. Keep the faith!!

Martine, I hope the treatment will help the dog. I'm crossing my fingers.

Sue, work's been hectic here too, hence why I hardly appear here, and no, I don't have any modem or computer pb :rolleyes: Only positive point is that the sun is back and it's been feeling like spring for a couple of days. It helps ;)

Well, seems like we all are pretty busy. No computer probs over here either (but the poor machine surely thinks it's on vacation :p )

What a worrying time for you: not only is he a "working" dog - you also become attached to him regardless of how he performs. Hope the vets can make him fit again!

Pretty sure the treatment will help him; his future as a "working dog" is in doubt though. If I were in your position, I'd be worried indeed about what might happen if someone ignore your psychological attachment to the dog. Perhaps a frontal crash test ahead.

Still, I'm addicted to the paper-and-pencil. Clearly, more manually manipulatable flexible stuff.

Lucho was awful in his match yesterday, hard to watch it. As for my technical problems, well they are almost over, just need to transfer some files and that's a slow process.
