Update: No more phone calls today from the vet! phew! Nina actually walked out half way to my truck before they had to carry her from exhaustion. They were using a sling to asist her. Her tummy is bare! Reminds me of my lab when he was a baby. The ultrasound even said her kidneys were unremarkable for a patient of this age! I wish I could tell her this and she would understand. This is day 4 and she hasn't eaten anything since saturday morning, the flaxseed and cottage chz mix. The vet still believes the flaxseed was just too fatty for her digestive system. I transported her back to the ER tonight. A lady in front of me carried a rolled up piece of rug and was sobbing. When she had gone, of course I had to inquire, they said she was pet sitting for her neighbors and their 14 year old Lab chose that time to die. I still went to the back with Nina and gave her tons of smooches and "how proud I am of You" to her. My little girls kissed her goodnight too. I think the ER has taken a little compassion to my youngens as everytime were in they bring out this black french bulldog named Bob. He reminds me of a gremlin. So cute!
Nina's breathing was very labored when we left and they said that was due to the excertion she mustered just to lie down in her kennel.

I felt good when I left. Her head was up many times to see what all the fuss was about.

Just wanted to update everyone who has tuned in..................
