Lulu needs your HELP ! Update June 29 We have good news and not so good news.  Lulu has improved since she first took ill in April.  She has more good days then not, but does take ill every now and again.  The vets are still puzzled at what may be ailing this young dog.  Her foster Mom and Dad continue to monitor her daily and provide her with all the love and care she needs.  Her progress is being monitored and we will keep everyone posted. At the beginning of April 2008, little Lulu started out with some diarrhoea, showing signs of pain and being very lethargic and had lost a full kilogram from her 7 kilogram body. She was not her happy, springy self. She has been taken back and forth to the veterinarian’s and put through a battery of different tests throughout the month to try and determine what is wrong. She has even had to be placed on intravenous twice to combat dehydration from the constant diarrhoea.  By mid month Lulu’s health continued to deteriorate and she came down with a high fever and indications that she was dealing some sort of internal virus. She had to spend 4 days at a veterinary emergency hospital for some constant care, pain medications, antibiotics, and ‘more tests’. To date she has had 3 x-rays, 3 ultra sounds, numerous blood, urine, and fecal matter tests, and has seen three separate veterinary specialists. A cause has yet to be determined, but her health and happiness are slowly returning. She has been placed on a special diet, an antibiotic that seems to be working, and been given lots of extra love and care. Her weight is slowly returning to normal, as well as her daily energy levels. Unfortunately all of this has come at a great cost (over $3700 to date), and it looks as though her future will require more medical care and tests until a definite prognosis can be found to help Lulu recover completely.     Lulu is back in the care of Beagle Paws and her foster family has been taking excellent care of her but the cost of medical treatment has become overwhelming.  Any help towards her vet care would be greatly appreciated.
