Old wobbly dog, written things, me

[bunn]

Rosie Roo is wobbly on her long legs and has a bit of a head tilt. The vet thinks she's had a vestibular incident (a bit like a stroke for dogs, only not really because apparently it doesn't have the same brain symptoms as strokes in humans). The vet prescribed antibiotics, an anti-nausea jab, and careful supervision to prevent her falling over. It

sorry to hear your faithful companion is not well, is she getting old

She's very old - at least 15, though as she is a rescue dog, I don't know her exact birthday.

Poor Rosie! Hope her appetite picks up a bit again.

Sorry to hear you are still not over the remains of the flu.

Thank you! So far Rosie has eaten one small meal today, and half her prescribed antibiotics. :-/

I'm sorry to hear Rosie has vestibular syndrome. One of my spaniels had it so severely it affected not just his balance, but his sense of direction. I hope Rosie is coping okay, and you're managing to find something that will tempt her to take her pills.

Oh dear, that does sound difficult! Rosie is mostly getting around OK, she can even climb stairs if she takes them slowly, but I think the dizziness is making her nauseous, I'm really struggling to get food into her. :-/
