jims_prettyeyes asked: My husband and I have a little **** tsu/Pekapoo mixed female dog that is less than two years old. On Tuesday evening, I adminstered on her for the first time the product “K9 Advantix” for fleas. I put this on her around 8 pm. During that same night around 3 am, she and other dog woke me up like they normally to do to be let out to go to the bathroom. When I let both of them out, I thought they both went. We keep “Cinder” in her crate at night, but she had continued fussing and whining till I let her back out again. She just went into the yard and sat then laid down in the cold grass. For the rest of the day Wednesday, after my before and after my husband and I got home from work, she continued whimpering and fussing and reaching for her hind end off and on. We called the vet, and since we live over 30 minutes away, they told us to bathe her in Dawn dish soap, adminster Benydryl every 8 hours, and also a tablet of Prednisone for 2-3 days, that we had from our other dog.
After following these steps through the Thanksgiving holiday, she has not improved at all. She has not had a bowel movement, and is not eating or drinking. Up till now, she has been current on all her shots, and has been checked by the vet to be a healthy dog. We fear there is something more serious going on now instead of an allergic reaction to the K9. Are there any vets here that might be able to give me some ideas what the problem may be till we get her to our vet tomorrow? We are so worried about her. We would like to hear some suggestions from knowledgable people only who won’t be scaring us with nonsense or just guesses.
