Man, RKC that's rough. Poor girl. She looks like she wants to be happy. I'm sure she just wonders what is going on with her balance, just like you. I hope the docs are right and it goes away soon. Rooting for ya Baily!!!

Wife just spoke to the vet, since she is not really eating\drinking it's time for the neurologist. The somewhat local one just left for vacation, looks like we will be bringing her into Boston.

Dagnabbit, hope it goes well for Bailey. I have a friend that just took her dog (Westie) for a consult. $1000 Surgery for tumor removal from kidney $3100 to $3600 if no complications.

My first Lab went through this when he was 10 or 11 years old. In his case he was back to normal quickly, within 24 hours, but when it persists as long as it has with your Bailey then you're doing the right thing to proceed with further tests. At least you'll know what you're up against. Best of luck.

Boston didn't have any appointments until 2 weeks, we could go to the emergency room and hopefully see a neurologist.
Found a place in RI that has an appointment for tommorrow at 10am. In the meantime they recommend forcing pedialite down her. Don't think they will have beef flavored. rkc

My Sasha had hip displacia, and in her final year she couldn't walk on her hind legs. I made a sling for her out of an old bath towel and some straps. Went around her belly and I could lift her rear up so she could walk using her front legs with me carrying her rear legs. It kept her from peeing or pooping on herself. You might want to try the same kind of thing with Baily. I know it's a different illness, but the results are the same... it will ease the going to the bathroom process, and at the same time will give a steady support. I'm really sorry you and your friend are going thru this RKC... Hang in there. Wishing all the best for you guys tomorrow.
