Storm and Daisy
New Born Pup
Hi,
Today my daughter and husband took our piggy Daisy to the vet as she had been dragging her rear legs the past 24 hours.
The vet advised that we should put her to sleep.
We have brought her home and have a painkiller for her while we think about it.
I wondered if anyone has any advice on when is the right time to put a piggy to sleep…I’m feeling very unsure about it and am probably going to take her to another for a second opinion.
We don’t know her age for sure as we adopted her from a family who emigrated, but probably around 7 years old.
She has had ovarian cysts for some time and then this problem with her legs just started late Tuesday.
She is eating well and the vet said she was clearly hydrated.
The vet said that she was very thin and this led her to believe their was an underlying health condition.
I realise this is a very tricky question but just wondered if anyone has any experience or insights to offer.
Many thanks in advance!
