Cailean seems to be taking a step downhill .
He's been on Vetmedin and Frusemide since June, and had Corventyl added when he was very poorly in August.
I took him to the vets yesterday, as he is very tired and coughing lots more. Although the vet said all his pulses were good still, she did say this may be the beginning of the final stage. He is now on Fortekor too.
I'm praying it's just another "scare".
Cailean is just 7 years old and his dad, Declan, lived til the 20th May last year, so this is an upsetting time of the year anyway.
I'm keeping a very close eye on Cailean. I've noticed he's getting a bit "leaky" too, which isn't like him. He wee's gallons on the Frusemide anyway, but this is like putting his leg up between proper wee's and just doing 2 drops.
I hate the way our precious Cavaliers have so many breed health problems. It makes me angry, but at the moment I'm better focussing my energies on enjoying Cailean.
Positive thoughts would I'm sure help my baby boy.
