  • My chihuahua was stung by a bee at 7:30 this evening. I saw

    My chihuahua was stung by a bee at 7:30 this evening. I saw her grab it and spit it out. I immediately ran instead and gave her 3/4 of a Benedryl as prescribed by my vet for allergies. She hasn't swelled anywhere and seems to be breathing fine (she snores normally so this is normal) but she will wake up every so often, act like she's gagging and try to get comfortable again. My fear is that she will have a reaction. Should I take her to the emergency vet?
  • My dog was limping and yelping a little bit so I took him to

    My dog was limping and yelping a little bit so I took him to the vet. They took X-rays and ruled out arthritis.

    His condition worsened while we were there at the vet. He was having real trouble walking. Not dizzy, but like motor skills trouble. Not just a limp. One of his paws was curled.

    All of his legs and paws were x-rayed, as was his chest, and they said all was fine with those. They also checked his ears, everything OK there.

    They said they think it has something to do with his neck/spine, since he really cried out when they were positioning him during the x-ray process.

    They said they think that because of his symptoms that it has to be something wrong with his vertebrae or spine. He is on anti-inflammatory drugs for 3 days and we're going to see where he is after that.

    They did advise me that the only way to know for sure what's wrong is to get a CAT scan, which is very expensive. But they also said that any of the possibilities of what may be wrong with him (stenosis I think they said) aren't good.

    What do you think?
