She took the cesium and DMSO for 2 days then Sat night she threw up twice and didn’t eat Sunday so I took her off it. Still doing the potassium. Trying to use it topically but she doesn’t eat breakfast until I bribe her around lunch. Very tired – both of us.
When is the right time?
- Is your dog in pain that can not be greatly reduced by medication?
- Does your dog have a terminal illness that drastically reduces his quality of life or causes constant pain?
- Is the treatment that the dog is currently taking improving his quality of life or simply maintaining a poor quality of life?
- Can you afford an expensive treatment when the dog only has a small amount of time left either way?
- Has your elderly dog lost most or all of his bodily functions?
- Does your dog still have the ability or mind-set to eat and drink?
- Are your dogs gums pink? This can be a sign that he is not receiving enough oxygen.
- Are you attempting to extend your dog’s life for his benefit or your own?
…there is a point in every dog’s life where he may be suffering and simply existing, rather than living. When this happens, it’s time to let go.
I'm not sure where I found this but it was on a website somewhere. Sorry I can't cite it.
