I have a Saluki male named Catfish. Catfish is 10yrs old and around April of 2002 he has hit by a car. Yes he did live, but he had a broken nose and two broken spots on the right side of his jaw. The vets didn't know exactly how to treat him. With Catfish also haveing head tramma he had swelling to the brain. They stableized him but didn't know if he'd make the night. I went to see him the next day and he got up to go home. The vets kept him another day and thats when the sezueres started. That day when I went to see him they told me that he was haveing the worst ones they had ever seen in a dog. They had him sadated heavaly, I sat with him and as he started to wake up he looked at me, It was a look of don't give up on me, just give me time. The vets kept telling me they weren't shore whats going on with him and they didn't know if he would pull throw or stay that way forever. I have had dealings with epileptic people so I asked the vet to look into that type of treatments. Long story short, Catfish stayed a week and a half at the vets good days and bad. The vet always shaying I'm not sure whats going on, (like why don't you just put him to sleep he's 10yrs old after all). Catfishes last day at the vet he staggerd, but the medicine was working to keep the sezueres under control. Now almost four mounths after the accident. Catfish is running and jumping around. As we say back to his old onrey self. |
