Kidney Failure

[jaxadam]

Well, besides guitars, dogs are the other love of my live.

Our 4 1/2 month old dobe went in to get spayed, and she got very sick afterwards. Well, the verdict is kidney failure.

I was supposed to fly out of the country today, but decided to come home instead. We're hoping for the best.

Sorry to hear that bro. I love dogs...I prefer them to people most of the time.
It is cool you stayed home to be with her. Best of luck man and give her a pat on the head for koogs.

thats sucks man, sorry.

 

[jaxadam]

I prefer them to people most of the time.

I do too.

I appreciate it, man.

Man, that totally sucks. Now that I've had a dog I have a big soft spot for aminals. She's a pretty red dobe, do you bread them?

Our dachshund has to go this friday to get a couple of baby teeth pulled and he's going to be pissed...

I hope yours get's better fast

Also sorry to hear about your dog. Do you think that getting spayed & kidney failure are related ?

 

[jaxadam]

She's a pretty red dobe, do you bread them?

No, we don't breed, but we just love dobes. They are the Cadillac of dogs. Once you own one, you'll never go back.

Good Luck Mate.

Nice looking Dogs.

 

[jaxadam]

Do you think that getting spayed & kidney failure are related ?

According to our vet, there apparently have been a few rare incidents where the pain medication has led to kidney failure.

A lot of variables come in to play, and we still have our hopes up.

I'm sorry to hear this! I love my dogs and would similarly cancel plans to take care of them. You have a very good looking pooch there!

Here are mine a few days ago:

Boris, the smaller one, is a Doberman/Terrier mix and very loyal. Gracie, my big black dog, is a very intelligent and loving Aussie Shepherd/Black Lab mix.

Damn dogs. They get into your heart, don't they?

 

[Sub1 Zero]

It's funny, our dog has that same newspaper toy

I love dobes too, I want to get one once I'm out of college. Apparently they MAKE you take them for a walk or a run, which would be great for keeping me in shape

Gotta say though, I love our dachshund

 

[jaxadam]

Damn dogs. They get into your heart, don't they?

They really do.

 

[jaxadam]

Apparently they MAKE you take them for a walk or a run, which would be great for keeping me in shape

Yes, be prepared. We usually do 2 miles a day with our dogs. And that still isn't enough.

 

[silverburst]

She's gorgeous. I'm sorry to hear about her troubles.

 

[jaxadam]

She's gorgeous. I'm sorry to hear about her troubles.

Thanks man. We're keeping our fingers crossed.

 

[Astrofreq]

That stinks, man. I hope she gets better.

 

[phatduckk]

awe man! ive got my fingers crossed for her. dogs are awesome and some dont understand how they truly are a member of the family

 

[Big Poppa]

Hey...I have three dobies and think they are the best and most improperly type cast dogs....We have two red males and one black female that also has her ears natural....they are golden inm our family....Brian has a male Dobie.....ours think they are lap dogs.

 

[Multiversal]

I'm sorry to hear about this.

My dog is my LIFE, man.. she's been through everything with me.. the bond between a man and his dog is unlike anything else and difficult to understand if someone has never experienced it before!

My prayers go out to you, man.

 

[TwAn]

Sorry to hear about this man, I have a Belgian Shepherd and I would hate it if something happens to her...

Hope everything works out for the best...
