Danielle, I’m so very sorry to read this.
This disease, sometimes, can just never be beaten. It affects the body in so many ways.
Take time to grieve. These dogs are the special ones.
When you’re ready, and maybe not immediately, please go to “The Bridge” page. I know it will help you.

Savannah was lucky to have had someone who loved her so much.
My deepest condolences,

Hi Pat. Would the drug be Denamarin? That is great great stuff for high liver enzymes. Should be given an hour away from other food and meds. Although it can be given with a little bit of food if necessary.
Now as to your question. I used to push this down Bingo’s throat, but he was such a good pill taker, I was lucky.
How have you been trying to give it to your feisty girl? The shove method? Are you in the US? I believe the chewable version is available. Does your girl tend to go for chewables?

Hi Pamela, just wondering how Maximillian is coping?
If you can get a copy of blood results, and send them through the Urgent advice, Patrice can have a look at them for you. She is brilliant at understand them and can help you understand what is happening too.

Amy, Atopica should NOT be given with food or meds. In fact ideally 2 hours away from food and other meds. Some dogs don’t tolerate it though and can have it with a small amount of food, but still it should be given away from the other drugs.
I have no doubts the antibiotics are a factor, but at the same time, they’re a necessary. What antibiotic is being used?
I may be off the air over the weekend, but I’ll check as often as I can. Most likely late evenings, my time (Sydney Australia).
