Hi my name is Beth. My husband, daughter and I own an 8 yr old English Bulldog names Bella. She has many gealth issues such as skin allergies being her main problem. She has had the infamous cherry eye. She had a severe uterine infect a few years ago that lead to her emergency hysterectomy. She has an EXTREMELY sensative GI tract. She has been placed on the ID GI special diet. Her skin allergies are a constant battle. Trial of abx, this past month her vet whom we love tried prednisone for the first time. Things got gery bad! The panting, diarrhea, up 24/7, frequent urination, it was horrible. So we got anti diarrhea meds, took her back in, stopped the steroid immediately! The vet gave her a sot if depo? Another steroid, same side effects!! So all we could do eas wait it out but add Xanax. It has worked a bit, meaning 20 mins at max. Our dog has anxiety like no other I tell you. Poor baby is affraid if the wind blows. Will not potty if it rains. She started licking the tile and all. My question to all is trying to give her the pills is such a terrible experience for her and I. We have tried ALL methods!!! She is too smart, she cannot tolerate food to begin with and what she can she will spit the pill out. In need of help please!!!! Thank you.
