The vet checked for toxins...because I told him about the as---- that lives 2
doors up and refers to me as a “m--- f--- because I take care of a feral/semi
feral cat colony in our neighborhood...he has threatened to kill them (the
cats) so I was afraid he threw something in our yard... We never let the dogs
out alone...we go with them.

Prayers sent for all of you.
Other then Susanne, I have also heard of others saying the same thing
when out of the blue their chi cried out in pain, but xrays showed a back
problem. I have also read that a regular blood test doesn't show all toxic
possibilities. There is a special blood test to cover all toxins, if there is a
possibility that he ingested something and it took hours to affect him. Was he
also checked for any type of bite, like from a spider or bee, or whatever wild
life you have in your area? Do you have poisonous frogs in your area? That's
another one I read about when a dog licked a frog, and no knew about it, until
he convulsed and they did a toxic blood test. Just guessing at all
possibilities.
Keep us posted as to how you are all doing and what happens with Bear and
your test.

Hello everyone...I was wondering if I could get some opinions. We had to
rush my parents little Chihuahua Bear to the vet this afternoon...he is the
brother to my Chihuahua Sox. He was fine last night...clear up to about 1 or
1:30 this morning when my mom went to bed. He was drinking water...playing and
everything was ok. Well this morning he woke her up by screaming! She couldn’t
find anything wrong with him. He hasn’t eaten or drank anything all day. While
we were at the vets office...in the waiting room...he had a seizure...he got
really stiff and was laying on his side...screaming. The vet rushed him back
right then and there. They did blood work and everything came back normal to
very good. No one knows why this happened. We left the vet a little after 6
pm...and he was still shaking. Tried to get him to eat some canned food ...he
wouldn’t. We bought him baby food with beef and broth and chicken and broth. We
need to get some fluids in him. Any suggestions or ideas? If he hasn’t shown
improvement in the morning...I’m taking him back. Love this little guy...he
weighs less than 4 lbs. I’ll check back in a few. I’m VERY tired. My husband
came home from work about 3:45 this morning...had to take him to the ER...he
pulled a muscle in his back! Had to get up this morning at 8:30...after not
getting to bed to after 5:30 am! Had to go pick up prescriptions for my
husband....then I had to go to my doctor and pick up an order for a Hi Da scan
on my liver...pancreas...and gall bladder. Had an ultra sound on my liver last
week...I have very high liver enzymes...the ultra sound came back abnormal! He
also ordered more blood work and said straight up he’s checking me for
cancer...SO...PLEASE pray for little “Bear”....he is loved so much by all of
us...I’m going to check on him now...and get some water in him....please say a
prayer for me too...I’m a little scared at this point...thank you.
