Better Day Today But I Wish She’d Eat.
I can’t explain it but Jack had a MUCH better day yesterday and today as far as the pain is concerned. I’m so happy. She had a Tramadol in the morning yesterday and that was it all day and evening except for a 1/2 Rimadyl at about midnight. She didn’t seem uncomfortable dinnertime and beyond so we just let it go. Today she was also not uncomfortable so that’s just awesome. Now if I could only get her to eat. I’m not sure if it’s the Chemo, or the pain drugs or what but she is very tough to get to eat dog food and even fresh human food. Of course she’ll take a dog cookie but I can’t fill the bowl with dog treats. Since she didn’t get pain drugs this morning and did finally eat last night i’m less concerned but hoping we can get her to eat good for dinner in case she becomes uncomfortable this evening. Monday we go to the U for an Osteoperosis drug and radiation.

Hey guys, try giving stinky food to her. Braunschwager, Liverwurst, salmon, tuna water. Most dogs dig the stench of this kind of nasty stuff. Remember, it’s better to get her to eat anything right now.
It’s good to her she’s not uncomfortble and you guys are managing her pain meds so well.
Hey, thnaks for putting a link to our site, you’re so kind
Hugs to Jack. Hang in there.

Thanks, I tried canned Tuna but poured out the water. I’ll try dumping that on some kibble.
