Lone Star Dog Ranch & Dog Ranch Rescue
I had a long night with Bessie Pearl, she was very restless and wouldn’t let me sleep an instead opted to try and snuggle into my neck or stand on my chest. I couldn’t determine what the issue was but this morning she was up, pottied and had her breakfast. A few hours later she was doing this. t's not rocket science to try and put things together but you know I have been dealing with this sneezing snot issue and have been concerned that she may have a mass or a tumor, discussed with the dentist in case its an abscessed tooth. I opted to schedule a CT and a rhinoplasty to start there but that appointment isn’t until the 20th. Clearly matters have escalated, I rushed her over to McKinney ER and Dr. Letcher took a look at her, Bessie continued to worsen and was vomiting in the car on the way. Here is what I am facing in order to make decisions, is this related to her nose, we don't know but probability is high. Is it not related and she is coincidentally having an idiopathic vestibular event that happens in older dogs ?We don't know and without a CT we cannot know if there is a mass in there. If there isn’t and this is vestibular she can, and most likely would recover, it just takes lots of time. I never want to put my digs through anything without a potential good outcome and with that being said I honestly feel like she most likely has a mass or a tumor, but I also feel like she deserves the opportunity to get a CT so that we know for sure. If it comes back negative then I can celebrate, but if there is a mass I will have to say good bye to this little dog filled with magic sauce that i love so very, very much. I am going to get her now to drive her to Blue Pearl, they have a neurologist waiting for her and a CT will be done tomorrow and then I will know. I am stepping away from the page, if there is a good news I will tell you, if there isn’t then I will have to write the dreaded post and take a few days off from posting. ...
