Wow...it's almost three full weeks since the rotton diagnosis, and my guy is doing GREAT! He's sleeping just a teensy bit more, but his appetite is still good, as is his cheer. We've not had any more accidents in the house at night, and I'm not noticing that he's drinking more than usual.
He's still losing body mass though, which is hard to see happen. He was always such a fit, solid boy and now he's definitely boney ... you can feel his entire skeleton
the only other thing I'm noticing is his lower lip seems to tremor now ... especially if he thinks he's going to be fed (which he thinks is going to happen every time he sees me! My husband says he just sees a walking food bowl now when I come into view hehehe). Has anyone else whose dog is on prednizone had experience with seeing that as a side effect? We don't go back to the vet now until next Tuesday. And I got all brave and bought a BIG bag of food yesterday! I'm remaining optimistic!
