Our little girl is sick again :( She threw up brown saliva this morning and this usually means blood in the digestive tract, so I rushed her to the vet. Since this wasn't the first time she's vomited in the past months (although blood was involved for the first time), the vets suspect it's ulcer (although it could still be just gastritis). They started her on antibiotics and two other medications, strict diet (no food for 24 hours!) and no stress. We have another appointment tomorrow and we'll see if she will feel better and if they will have to do any more tests, however she will most likely be on medications for at least one whole month. Side effects are mild, but she could feel tired a lot and be low on energy. I really hope she'll feel better soon, all I want is for her to be a healthy and happy little dog!
My princesses
- Xsara and Tani
- Sava Sara Brakada, AKA Xsara was born on 06-27-2004. She was raised in Kennel Brakada spending the first two months of her life on beautiful countryside Gorenjska (Slovenia) with her siblings and parents. As soon as she came to Ljubljana we started a puppy class, followed by an obedience class. She passed her B-bh exam with 96 points (instructor Agility EO winner Polona Bonač). We now continue with Rally-Obedience under Polona's supervision. Our biggest passion however is Agility. We started our first Agility class in October 2005 (club Agility Ilirija, instructor Silvia Trkman, two times agility world champion). When Silvia stopped teaching agility classes, we switched to Daša Zakotnik. We regularly participate in Agility trials in Slovenia and sometimes abroad. Xsara also loves to learn new dog tricks, you can see some of them in our videos. Her other passions include long walks, big meals and playing with dogs, specially her pyr shep sister Tani, her crazy agility pals and her sister Sena.

Poor Xsara, we hope she feels better soon. It is horrible to see them feeling poorly.
Paws crossed for her from the UK to be well again very soon.
Luna je imela gastritis pri pol leta, pa je imela antibiotik in i/d dieto al kaj ze (od Hillsa uglavnem). Pa nic priboljskov. Samo Luna je bruhala cisto obicajno, pa ful jo je treslo prvi dan. Mislim, da je dobila se eno injekcijo.
A je dobila ampule za uravnavanje prebave?
I hope the medicines help her really fast! Sending beagle prayers to Xsara and her family.
love & wags,

Whilst I'm sure it's no fun at all for either of you to be restricted this way after usually spending so much fun time together, I feel positive that you'll both be back to your normal routine in no time at all.
Here's to a speedy recovery for Xsara.
