My dog jojo wasn't acting right last night, so I took her to the vet today and the vet thinks she had a stroke. I had video of what happened last night so that helped the vet. She checked out ok today. The vet said dogs get over strokes much faster than humans. If it happens again they'll have to run tests. I feel so sad about it, especially since my husband isn't home. Now I feel like I can't go out and do anything cause I have to watch her all the time. She's only 7. We've had her since she was 8 months old. The vet said she's got yeast in her ears too so I have to give her ear drops for a while.

Sorry to hear about your dog. I can only imagine how scary that was for you. Though I’m glad she seems ok now.

Hopefully she gets better soon

I know what it feels like to worry about a pet. Our 4 pawed friends are people too!

Hugs Moreta what you coped with was quite traumatic but you did the right thing taking her to the vet. Hugs for your dog too.

I can understand the way you feel. My cat is sick right now and I don't want to leave him alone. Hugs.

That sounds so scary. Big hugs. I hope that she heals quickly and you don’t have to worry so intensely.
