Hello everyone,
For the next 2 weeks I’m taking care of 15 yo 45 lbs dog with the mobility issues, also on the thyroid med (0.3 mg once a day) , Enalapril (10 mg once a day) and the bunch of the vitamins (I’m not sure if there is any probiotic, but will ask). My friends left for vacation and I couldn’t say ‘no’ to the dog, not the owners. she was the best friend of my two boys I lost more then 2 years ago but Samantha is still here. I was told she didn’t have a lot of issues, the blood test are fine, the blood pressure med is just in case, she has a light murmur. She sleeps a lot, she is able to walks with difficulties for 30 min outside , she is upset bc her family left.. I think she exibits some signs of dementia especially after 6 pm. She pooped once in 2 days and diligently relieves her self outside.
She drinks enormous amount of water and doesn’t have an appetite. Her diet is 1 cup of Origen chicken kibbles, Nutro Rosted Turkey in Gravy ( 1 pack) and home made chicken soup mixed together twice a day.
i have her for 2 days, she ate once yesterday at 6 pm. Since then she refused the food or treats I offered. I administered 0.5 ml ENTYCE today at 2 pm and so far she didn’t express any interest in her food.
I will appreciate any advice on the irresistible food additive, toppers, flavor enhancement or other ways to spike her appetite and interest in food.
THANK YOU.
