Bloody nose - update on Trevor

St. Francis, we need you once again. Kelly's Trevor is under the weather. We're all concerned, you see, because he means so much to her, and Trevor brought us all together through Sheltie Nation. So please, look in on him throughout the day and if you would, ask The Boss to lend His healing touch to this good Sheltie.
 
I do not have any previous experiences with a dog and a nosebleed to share wtih you, but please know that I am thinking about you guys and hope that this turns out to be "nothing."

It is so hard with our furbabies, because they cannot use their words to tell us exactly how they feel.

Please keep us updated, and I will say a little prayer for you all right now.

Stay strong.
Dani
 
My thoughts are with you and Trevor, Kelly. What a scary night. I hope that he continues to improve and it is nothing that can't treated. I think all of us understand where you are coming from. Hugs!
 
Oh dear! I'm so sorry....especially when they start using nasty words like "growth". It's like deja vue when Bacca's mouth swelled up for no apparent reason and they started talking about lymphoma. Yep, you start thinking the worse. They treated him first with antibiotics which seemed to do the trick - for a while - and then he was up and down all summer long. I would think he was back to normal, and then he'd be off his food again. Only to find out months and months later, that he seems to be hypothyroid (a good outcome, given the choices).

I don't know much about nose bleeds in dogs....is it like people, who get nosebleeds when its "dry" and the nose lining gets irritated? If so, it may never recur or it may now become a chronic condition relating to dry air, or the worst scenarios.

I would be inclined not to wait...given my own procrastination, I wouldn't wait so long again.
