Poorly Skyla


Recommended Posts

So on Sunday as normal I go over to my parents house to walk the dogs, straight away I notice skyla has a significant swelling on her mouth/neck area so a mad dash to boots for some piriton incase it's a bite or sting , monitor her and she's absolutely fine in herself , Monday morning still swollen so off to the vets we go !

Antibiotics and steroid injection, vets can't rule out a bite or sting but isn't 100% sure so back for a check up the next day incase

So check up today and thankfully the swelling has reduced a bit (not loads but enough) the vet thinks it's an infection , god knows what she did but yeah antibiotics for a week and then back for another check up next Tuesday

My poor girl

On the plus side she's lost around 2kgs or so

Awww, bless her. Hope she’s better soon.
It’s possible that she got stung and the bite became infected but regardless of the cause, fingers crossed she’s better soon xx

That's what I thought but the lump on her neck is pretty solid which is why the vet said even tho he can't rule it out he doesn't think it's a bite or sting, luckily she's ok in herself and is still eating and drinking fine , I'm now even skinter then I was lol

Oh no. If it doesn't completely go away, I would get an xray. I hope SKYLA gets better soon.[emoji120][emoji252][emoji169]

It's pretty much gone now , you can only slightly feel a slight raise when you put your hand on her neck and you have to really feel for it now, will see what the vet says Tuesday anyway tho

How is SKYLA doing since she's been on antibiotics for a few days??

From what I can feel it's pretty much gone there might still be a slight bump but her fur is coming back in so it's making it harder to feel , she takes her last antibiotic tomorrow morning and vets Monday afternoon
