    My dog is in pain,
    Swollen abdomen
    Runny stool
    Don't want to be touched
    Won't eat, or drink
    Cry's
    Runs away from husband and me

    The vet put her on meds for liver, but continues to say he's not sure what the problem is
    He took blood said her levels are off , MAYBE its her liver, "just not sure"

    How old is your dog? If it were my dog (and he's crying and won't eat or drink), I'd take him to another vet for another opinion. Please keep us informed.

    Turned 5 in April
    She ate a little tonight I had to put chicken and rice in the palm of my hand she ate about 4 tbs

    I spoke to another vet tonight and they said since my vet did the blood test I would only be wasting my money by doing it again.
    I left a voice mail to Shelby's vet waiting for a call back , I want a 'here's what you need to do for Shelby to help her answer'.

    Thank you for your help

    You need to discuss this with your vet. And perhaps talk to another vet (again) what if this was your child. Would you just do nothing, if one doctor did not know?

    Some vets are better than others, some miss things.

    Seriously? You're on the internet for help? I'd demand my money back if my vet didn't know what was wrong with it and the dog was still in pain... OR get a second opinion.

    This sounds very serious... Maybe your dog needs a liver biopsy/ultrasound.
