RE: My dog is stoned! And some Thursday green
Awww poor puppy! I hope she feels better soon. You don't have to use those awful steroid pain meds, do you?
My big, brown coonhound-mutt had a pinched nerve, that left him literally screaming in pain several times a day. We ended up getting those for him, but it was too cold for him to be outside. I was taking care of the poor guy while my parents were away. Those meds made him super thirsty and unable to control his bladdr, so I was constantly cleaning up huge puddles of pee off the floor. Ugh.
She's on an opioid pain killer and an NSAID. The opioid should keep her quiet for a few days so her leg can heal. She hasn't been very interested in food for the last week, so hopefully when the pain subsides her appetite will come back. She's supposed to be on bed rest. Poor baby. At least she gets to stay kind of loopy.

Awwww, a loopy pooch! I don't suppose chicken scraps would help with the appetite? :-)
She gets a raw egg on her food anyway, or fresh goat milk. I could try meat, though. It might sound more tempting to her. That's a good idea.
