Bloody nose - update on Trevor

Oh Gee, we are so sorry to hear of your problem with Trevor, will be saying our prayers for the little guy and watching intently to see how he is.
Like you said, it is so hard to understand why others especially the Vet does'nt take the situration seriously, even though they are supposed to be experienced and we are not.
God Bless,
Try and get some rest
Lots of Sheltie Luv

fingers crossed

Well it's been 24 hrs now since Trevor's last bloody nose. He is eating well (if I hand feed him) & finally pooped after a 24 hr. strike. LOL He let out two big sneezes when I got home tonight & I crossed my fingers. No blood!

My hubby was a real trooper, updating me almost hourly & sitting near him all day, reacting to every snuffle & noise he made. He said Trevor slept a lot, but then again the other two monkeys did too. :smile2:

I'm hoping for more sleep tonight but so far Trevor seems restless. I'm trying not to look too much into it. Still haven't heard back from his regular vet either . :( The vet office did call to say that they hadn't forgotten me, but had a perfect storm of too many crises & too few vets on staff today. I told them I understood & asked for someone to contact me when available.

I made myself feel better by writing down all my questions & emailing to the office. At least I'll get them all answered this way.

I want to believe this was a one time event...but in the back of my mind is the annoying pessimist that says "stuff like that doesn't just happen & you should not dismiss this".

I'm so grateful for all the well wishes & prayers. It truly is a comfort.

I'll keep everyone posted...wish me luck for some shut eye!
 
You are doing all the right things. Just don't get complacent. I made that mistake.

If it feels wrong, then it is wrong. Stick to you guns!

I give that to Lucky every once and a great while, not often. He slid on ice in the winter acting like a fool to get out the door, and pulled a ligament.

I am careful with this med, because I know someone who gave it to her dog, and she swears up and down, this med caused her dog liver damage. You have him on a great diet!

Sounds like Trevor's nose can be an easy fix. Like humans, dryness up in there, or it could be a tiny little vein also that broke. My son when he was little I ran him to the doctor. He looked like he had a miscarriage of the nose.
Bloody boogers, and all of this ugly stuff, and he bled like a hog. They just had to cartarize the vein.

I always say don't worry until you have something to worry about, BUT I DO, and I can understand, they really are our kids too.

Prayers coming that all will be fine!!!
 
Thanks for the update. Fingers are crossed that you have a good nights sleep tonight, and you can get this all figured out soon.
