getting Henry's digestive problems in check has been a life long struggle, he is on Hills Diet zd right now and maybe for life, no other foods, with the exception of lamb lungs for treats. he is doing well enough, kidneys well that is another story, his Gerd is in check and now the green goo and constant sneezing of it has ended. we tried different anitbiotics, nasal washes, even having him sit in the shower to get the steam to clear his nose, all to no avail. we took him AVS in Maitland for a cat scan and scope and they found this stuff in his nasal area and back of throat area
its speculated it is part of a rawhide treat that lodged there when he had an Gerd episode.
removed and Henry is recovering very well for an old boy. we are all so relieved and im sure he is so thrilled
i will never give a rawhide treat to any dog i have.
Poor Henry. But he's a tough little guy and will come around with lots of love and some R&R. Which I know he's getting plenty of! ♥
ReplyDeleteYeppers, rawhide chew treats are evil. Actually I think they should be banned. I know of another friend who's furbaby had to have emergency surgery for a rawhide getting lodged in the throat.
Please give the boys smooches from their Aunt Peanut. Stella and Gracie send their love, too. ♥
Thanks Peanut. We just love him so much!!!!
