Most definitely Lyme symptoms. Boy, this sure is Lyme week. If it is, she'll be good as new after a dose or two of doxycyclene. Good luck!!
Well we are back from the em vet...it was an interesting place to say the least...but im banned from the other one in the state( thats a whole other story)...so anyway....I get there we are the only ones...thank goodness!! No chaos atleast! there's a guy in the lobby watering plants barefoot....I look over at my mom and mouth....OHMYGOD I THINK HES THE VET!
..turns out yip he is....Anyway he seemed knowledgeable and nice enough, once he put his shoes on...
She does have an infection, we were thinking pyro, but he said no he didnt feel that was the case, or atleast if it was the start of it its VERY early but he feels its most likly prob a bladder infection. So she has Sub Q fluids and an antibiotic...she seems a little perkier than earlier and he said the fluids will bring down the fever.
Its funny how you can get to the point with your dogs that you can look into their eyes and just know when something is wrong with them...Poor Molles...I hope shes back to her barking self soon

Aw poor Molly. I hope the medication works fast and she feels better soon. I'm also glad it's not lyme disease.

You are such a good mommy for getting her to the vet ASAP so she can start her meds.
I hope that the meds work and she recovers quickly.

Thinking of you and Molly over the next few days. Hopefully she's back to her old self soon, and the infection clears up quickly.
THanks everyone! She finally ate some chicken a little bit ago...I couldnt even tempt her with steak earlier. Shes sleeping on the couch next to me and I'll take her temp before I go to bed. Shes such a tough little girl and stoic that you know when shes off she really has to be bad...shes not a drama queen like some of my others.

Poor little tacker. Hope she perks up quickly.
When you wrote 'em vet' I thought that meant, like 'um - vet' (as in a dodgy vet), but did you mean emergency vet? Although walking around without shoes, where all sorts of animals have trotted their germy paws - even I'm wary about my dogs walking on the emergency vet's floors, definately and um-vet!
