If you remember, Hope is the little dog I saw running down the side of the road in the middle of a thunderstorm last year and I rescued her.
Hope’s had several seizures recently, her breathing has become strained, she labors to walk sometimes. She has an enlarged heart, a possible mass in her abdomen, gums very pale, and she’s just not getting enough oxygenated blood due to the heart issue.
While we were at the clinic for another blood draw, she seized again. The vet is pretty sure her seizures are a heart issue and not a neurological one. He will wait to do X-rays till we get the blood info back, also because it’s too much stress for her all in one visit.
She continues to be my Velcro dog, and remains happy and chill regardless of her issues. Please send her lots of good mojo and happy vibes that whatever time she has left is stress and pain free!
