On Sat., Tulies front feet looked swollen. I took her by the Vet yesterday, he agreed and said he could feel a little pitting edema. Tulie did have diarrhea over the weekend. I have not been able to figure out the pattern to her diarrhea, as it has happened for a day or two every couple weeks.
This morning I started her on Prozyme in her food. She is eating the same food that I have always fed her, Sensible Choice Adult Chicken. My Vet said that I should probably not make a change in her food right now. The Vet also said that if the swelling persists, I should take her in to have the Protein and Albumin checked again.
Does anyone know what can be done to help with edema? I am getting her up and walking her around every two hours, even though it's 107 degrees out. Today I took her to the local dog wash and had her stand in cold water for 10 minutes. Tulie is acting normal in every other way, still has a great appitite, barks, and wants to chase cats.
Please give me any suggestions that might help.
