She can't even have treatment for the infection at the moment since most anti biotics will wreck what is left of her kidneys faster than the disease but the vet is trying to find something which is less damaging. No-one can tell me how long she will have a reasonable quality of life for, and when I will need to make a decision Apparently chronic kidney failure is progressive but very hard to assess what point it is at. She has lost weight noticeably in the last week but is still eating well. I will just have to keep monitoring her and note any changes ...... The vet says she's managing ok at the moment. ____________ Pretty Polly Pavey of Polidot - 06/08/1996 - 13/07/2006 - Dalspa Liquid Gold for Polidot 20/10/1999 - 08/05/2007 - Polly and Polo together again Posted: Wed Jul 05, 2006 8:12 pm annestaff TopDog Joined: May 10, 2005 Posts: 2083 Age: No.Of Pets: 3 Pet Types: SBT Karma: 5 Thank Medals: 1 (View more...) 721 PetPounds Items Status: Offline Post subject: Just read about Polly on the other forum Gill, its so sad and unfair.

The vet has just rung, he knows what the infection is now so I am of down there shortly to pick up some antibiotics, if we can clear that up he will put her on steroids to relieve the strain on what remains of her kidneys. I weighed her today. 23Kg. She's normally 25-26kg. The vet reckons her life expectancy - or a reasonable quality of life - is anywhere between a week and a year....... impossible to tell. I just have to keep monitoring her. ____________ Pretty Polly Pavey of Polidot - 06/08/1996 - 13/07/2006 - Dalspa Liquid Gold for Polidot 20/10/1999 - 08/05/2007 - Polly and Polo together again Posted: Fri Jul 07, 2006 4:01 pm spottydog Dog Expert Joined: May 09, 2005 Posts: 1106 Age: 51 No.Of Pets: 1 Pet Types: dogs Karma: 7 Thank Location: Republic of Ireland Medals: 1 (View more...) 2273 PetPounds Items Status: Offline Post subject: Polly died this morning at 11am. She was in my arms and went peacefully. Her condition suddenly worsened last night and she was vomiting huge quantities. We were at the vet's at 11pm and the vet was not hopeful. I brought her back but by this morning she was vomiting again and wobbly on her feet. I could have propped her up for a week or so with drugs but she was going downhill rapidly so the decision was the best for her, although I am distraught. ____________ Pretty Polly Pavey of Polidot - 06/08/1996 - 13/07/2006 - Dalspa Liquid Gold for Polidot 20/10/1999 - 08/05/2007 - Polly and Polo together again Posted: Thu Jul 13, 2006 11:38 am _Jules_ Packleader Joined: Jun 25, 2006 Posts: 458 Age: 43 No.Of Pets: 10+ Pet Types: Labrador,Labrador/Golden Retriever, Lurcher, cats, bunnies and Guinea Pigs Karma: 8 Thank Location: Essex Medals: None 169 PetPounds Items Status: Offline Post subject: I know no words will ease the pain.

A special thanks to Sambo for sending me the e-card from Petchat, I was touched. Polly will be buried this morning at 11am under the trees on my site, the builder and my landlord (who is a farmer) will be coming to assist. She will be laid to rest wrapped in her favourite blanket, her new collar, one of her "Best Veteran" rosettes and some wild flowers from the field. Polo and Deccy will be there too - they both slept on the bed with me last night and seem to know what has happened. ____________ Pretty Polly Pavey of Polidot - 06/08/1996 - 13/07/2006 - Dalspa Liquid Gold for Polidot 20/10/1999 - 08/05/2007 - Polly and Polo together again Posted: Fri Jul 14, 2006 6:07 am Display posts from previous: All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First  All times are GMT Pet Chat Forum Index » Dog Forums Printable Version Goto page Previous  1, 2, 3  Next  Jump to: Select a forum Pet site information----------------Updates & AnnouncementsWebsite HelpSuggestionsFurbabies News Pet Forums----------------Pet HealthIntroshorse/donkey/goatsBird Chat ForumsHealthPet ChatExotic Pet ForumRodent chatFish ForumsPet StoriesRabbit Chat ForumPet Breeders & BreedingPet RescueOff TopicLost PetsFound PetsDiscountsRainbow BridgeDiet Cat & Dog Forums----------------Dog ForumsCat ForumsAgilityShows  Related topics  Topics   Replies   Author   Views   Last Post  Ring any bells? 4 Joo 234 Fri Jan 19, 2007 6:18 pm Denise My pretty little ring! 19 catmad 939 Mon Oct 31, 2005 1:42 pm catmad Off Topic posts no longer show on front page 1 petchatadmin 1074 Sun Jun 12, 2005 11:26 am Fizzyon wag and bone show 6 sambo 964 Thu Jun 09, 2005 10:44 pm ilovedogs Show leads............... 0 Lu-1 545 Thu May 26, 2005 11:22 am Lu-1   All times are GMT Ported for PHP-Nuke by nukemods.com Powered by phpBB 2.0.11 © 2001, 2002 phpBB Group :: Theme & Graphics by Daz Forums ©
