One intravenous injection of dexamethasone, two rounds of Benadryl and the start of a course of oral steroids and she is back to her old self, with just a few wrinkles here and there.
Sammy is an 8 month old Boston Terrier - he has a real boxer face....we just went thru the vet bill nightmare - Lyme - 1st vet took 500 worth of x-rays and suggested another 230 to have specialist "read" the x-rays - 2nd vet was less than 200 took x-rays and gave him Doxy - all better now...(staying away from vet 1 in the future...

DeleteIts funny, but poor Molly! Her expression is telling, I feel my own tongue smacking.
ReplyDeleteDidn't stop her from eating or trying to take Billy's food, for that matter
Deletepoor baby, hope she is feeling better....that looks painful
ReplyDeleteI think it was worse for us looking at her. Not to mention the vet bill. PS Is that a boxer in your photo???
