Sick dog

No good news unfortunately. She sniffed it alright but wouldn't touch it. I blended some up for her with extra ginger and syringed it into her mouth. She took about a mug of it. It's the only thing that she dosent throw back up apart from the hills food. She's ate nothing voluntarily yet so that's a bad sign. I'm clutching at straws now. I'll ask the vet if there's any pill she can take for the nausea and maybe that'll get her apetite back.

God love you, it's an awful situation to be in

Thanks to all for your input and help. I tried feeding her as best I could and exhausted all avenues. Today at 5 I knew by her she wasn't right. We brought her in at 7, lit the stove and she lay on an old duvet in front of it. At 9 she started to decline and sadly died an hour ago.
I'm happy now that she's at peace.

I'm so sorry to read this dtp, very sad.
But as you say, her suffering is over now, there was no more you could do for her. I'm sure it'll be very hard to get used to her not being about any more.:(

Cherish all of the memories of happier times, think of how you cared for her right up to the end, and mind you and your family.

very sorry to read your news it shows what a bond you had that you recognised how poorly she was

I'm so sorry for your loss, but how lovely that she drifted away, with the people she loved, a peaceful passing. Take care.

Am so sorry to hear she has passed away. Take comfort that you were with her & she was surrounded by her own smells & family in the comfort of her own home.

Mind yourself.

Very sorry for your loss OP. You did everything you could and gave your dog a happy life. Sounds like shr just drifted off in the end. It's a tough time but it gets easier

I'm so sorry for your loss. Comfort yourself with the thought that you did your very best for her. Keeping you in my thoughts and sending you my very best wishes. Maryanne x x
