Trying to Get Pregnant

NGPR: My poor dog just had another seizure

I'm just so sad for him. He's an 11 year old Golden and my LIFE. They were 6 weeks apart, then 4, then 3 now 2 weeks. We've adjusted his meds but we think the brain tumor is just getting too big and starting to cause more issues. DH and I have a decision to make soon.  He still bounces back and acts playful but the bad days are slowly outweighing the good. I'm just devastated. It?s so hard to see him like this.  I wanted sooo badly for him to be our baby?s first dog too. Even if it was just a short time but I need to let go of that.

  • I am so sorry to hear that.  I know it is really tough.  I lost my dog to breast cancer this year.  I didn't even know dogs could get breast cancer!  Anyhow, it is really tough.

  • I'm sorry for your pain.  Poor baby... i think i cried harder when i lost my Lucy (my 2-year-old chihuaha) then when i lost my grandfather.  Sad, I know, but he was a major Ahole and I had no relationship with him.

    {{hugs}}

  • I'm so sorry.  I know how difficult it is, especially when there are still good times.

    I know your golden has been struggling, I am sorry! I know it must be scary to watch the seizures and that any decision you will have to make is going to be tough. My t and p are with you! From one golden 'mama' to another! GL.

  • So sorry about your pup. :(
    Lilypie Second Birthday tickers Congratulations to my girl AmberZ! So happy for you!
  • This may be hard to hear, but my brothers dog had seizures just like your dog, very spaced out.  he was on medicine to control them also, but you could see his health declining. And then 2 weeks ago, he had 8 in a row, and they rushed him to a speicalized vet and he had to be put to sleep:( He actually went blind when he had the 9th one in the morning.  He had never had that many before until that night.

    Take him to the vet to see.  I miss brandy everyday, but it came to the point where he was suffering too much.

    So sorry, but I hope it all works out for you.  Dogs are a part of your family

    This is my fear!!  That I'll be home alone and he'll have multiple and I won't be able to get him in to the car to the vet. He 82 lbs. He had 4 in one day in July and we took him to a Neurology Vet and put him on meds. He goes blind for about 5 minutes after every seizure. We think once they get to once a week or every few days  or even more then one at a time we'll know it's time. I hate it.

    OMG. That is the cutest pup I have ever seen.  I just want to rub my face in his fur. So cute. I'm not sure at this point if I will be able to get another one for some time. Ugh.

  • my brother and sil didnt know if he was having them while they were at work either so they kept their other day in the kitchen all day just in case.  my sil actually carried him into the vet while he was having a seizure.  It was really sad.

    i went with him yesterday to pick up the ashes bc he was cremated and while I was sad, I knew it was for the best.  He starting being really sluggish, then he would feel better, and then be sluggish again.

    I am convinced it was a brain tumor, but they never went to a neurologist. 

    GL with everything.  I have my own senior doggy at home and I try to cherish every moment with him
