I’m crying with u babe. You’re so strong for telling us this experience. ❤️ teddy is watching you and always with u. I’m so sorry for your loss. It’s heartbreaking.
Thank you! Your words mean a lot! ❤
I am so very very sorry for all of you on here! I know exactly how it feels and it is so incredibly painful I have the biggest hole in my heart I can’t believe I just cannot believe my baby is not with me. God bless everyone of you. I pray that all of you are saved in the name of Jesus Christ so that we can all be reunited in heaven again when it is our time to go. 🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️
My dog was 17 and I just had to put him down because of kidney failure. He wasn’t eating anything even his favorite foods and he couldn’t walk and his breath smelled like death. He was shaking and liquid would come out of his mouth. I’m not ok and I don’t think I ever will be ok. I can’t believe this is real. I can’t live without him. Life sucks
are you ok?
He is out of pain. Please remember all the good memories. You gave him a good life.
Mine was 14. Same exact symptoms. She died in my arms. I don't feel ok and I don't know what to do now. But she is not in pain anymore. That matters to me more than my broken heart.
Mine 14. She got parvo, and her kidneys weren't strong enough. The new vaccine cured it, but her kidneys got messed. Her blood contaminated, and she started twitching. Was the most painful thing I've gone through my entire life.
My chihuahua Chico died July 30, 2023 from kidney failure. It was a hurt I never felt before. Chico had a seizure then died later that morning. I miss him sooooooo much. The grief is unbearable. Trying to find peace....Forever is a long time, thats how long i will love him. RIP MY LIL BOY....UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN ❤
My dog had renal failure she had proteinuria for almost 7 years. She had a seizure and passed away. ❤❤❤❤
@@BeeApple-sr3db I am so sorry for your lost.
@@Kitty-rl4no thank you so much and I'm sorry for your loss.
So sorry for your loss. Time takes time to heal.
@@BeeApple-sr3db I appreciate that, thank you. I believe your baby girl will always be with you in spirit. Praying for peace. 🙏
Just had to put my precious down girl 4 hours ago. I’m devastated, 3 days acute kidney failure. Sending hugs to you and anyone else who has recently love a 4 legged family member.
I’m so sorry you had to go through it so fast! It’s unbelievable sometimes thank you for your kind words and I’m also sending lots of hugs and love your direction ♥️
Just put my cat down last night. Also 3 days acute kidney failure. The sudden shock is unbearable. I keep thinking what went wrong. Searching the internet for answers. But he’s gone 🥺🕊🤍🐈⬛
@@mariaduran634 so sorry for your loss.
I'm so sorry for your loss! If you don't mind, could you tell me how you knew it was acute kydney faliure and what signs u saw in your dog? If it's too painful to explain it's okay you dont have to answer it, I was just wondering cause I recently got a dog and she's my first pet. So I'm learning everything as we go. Thank you! And again I'm very sorry for your loss
I just lost my cat Freyja to kidney failure a few weeks ago. I miss my boy!!! He was 14years old!!! Ty for this...
My dog passed today after 4 weeks of battling with acute kidney failure. I'm still asking myself how and why. She's only 5 yrs old. So hard to see her suffer.. So hard to see her go.
Please don’t feel awkward. We are crying with you. We feel your pain as most of us is going thru the same with our dogs. Thank you for being so brave to talk about it.
These little ones tear our hearts in a million pieces! Just had to let one go a few weeks ago and feeling so sad! Much love!!
I'm sorry for your loss. My dog passed away from Kidney Failure last week.
I’m dealing with kidney failure as well as canine cognitive disease and my dog is 17 years old. Honestly I feel she is experiencing a rapid decline in quality of life. Drastic measures and vet visits and care to simply extend her life a few months is not that appealing. If she were a younger animal it would be a different situation. She’s my best friend and the thought of loosing her is devastating. That said, simply prolonging her pain and misery for my own selfish wants is something I think I will decline. I guess in an ideal world we would all (pets and people) pass peacefully and easily, but that’s not normally the case. I feel for your loss and appreciate this video to help others in similar situations. It’s not east watching an animal suffer.
Wow 17 years old. That’s truly incredible! Its not going to be easy but you’d never want to look back and regret keeping her longer than you should have. My vet didn’t tell me that I needed to put Teddy down, I as the owner had to make that tough decision. I knew her quality of life was just deteriorating. I’m really glad my video was able to help you in some way. Thank you for sharing your story. Other people who come across my video may find your comment helpful. Take care of yourself this is going to be a really tough battle but with support you will get through this ♥️
I am so sorry. I lost my Yorkie Daffodil in 2020 as well. (6 days after my MOM passed). I know just how hard this is. It's 3 years later and it still is really tough. I often feel her brushing up against me or trying to get on th ebed.
My little baby Carmen, 16 year old Teacup Poodle 🐩 transitioned in my arms this morning... I'm so grateful to hold her in my arms during her last hour and watched her take her last breath..
My dog just died of kidney failure two days ago, we also had made the decision to end her suffering; and her symptoms were just as you had described. I’m sorry you went through this, it truly is hell
I’m soooooo sorry for your loss! Nothing can replace them! It was hell but just remember she isn’t suffering and hopefully that gives you some kind of peace of mind like it did for me! Take care of your self ♥️
Im sorry for your loss. My dog pepper just died yesterday due to kidney failure. Its devastating. Praying for healing to all human parents who lost their furry friends 😢😢😢
Thank you for sharing it’s not an easy process for sure I hope you are staying strong! And thank you for your kind words ♥️
My dog just passed abt two hours ago
Thank you for sharing your story, my 14 year old Corgi was just diagnosed with stage 4 kidney disease, and your video really helped me.
Thank you for posting this video.I just lost my beloved dog from kidney failure as well.We had to put him to sleep because he was declining so fast.As much as I want to keep him longer by giving him IV fluids and forced feeding, my family decided not to prolong his agony.We had to put him to sleep at home.Our vet came to our home and he just slept in my arms.He did not even feel the shot. I am still grieving and feels miserable.I miss my baby so much. Watching your video made me feel that we did the right thing. I feel your pain. It is so hard to lose a pet, they are family.They bring us so much joy and unconditional love.
Thank you for telling your story about your beloved pet.
Oh my goodness thank you for sharing and I’m soo sorry for your loss! It’s not easy going through something like this it hits different the only thing that gave me peace is constantly reminding myself that I made the right choice at the right time and She had a beautiful life and im sure your dog did too! It’s not easy take it one day at a time and you’ll get through this! Sending you lots of love! 💕
Me and my wife is going through this now. Our boy is 17 1/2 yrs old he would of been 18 in October 8th. Tomorrow is the day me and my wife agree to put him to rest peaceful. Me and my wife been crying on and off over the last week. He’s been here with the both of us almost our hole marriage. We been married for almost 20 yrs. Tomorrow will definitely be a very hard day. 😢
I feel your pain. You’ve been granted almost 18 years with your boy and that’s such a blessing! I know this is going to be incredibly tough for you and your wife it’s going to be really really tough but just know that you are making the right decision and he will be free of this terrible health condition. What helped me the most was just reminding myself that my baby is in a better place healthy and happy. Stay strong, talk to him and make him feel safe during the process it will make it easier on your baby. I’m sending you both lots of love and hugs. You will get through this ♥️
@@ajdropss thanks ! Your video help me understand the disease and the pain the dog will be going through. I don’t want to be selfish to have him go through this just because what me and my wife want from our heart but not for him. Again thank you! Your Video was a blessing.
@@ajdropss I also want to tell you RIP Teddy. 🙏🏾 I’m sorry you had to go through this.
Going through this right now. I’m depressed and don’t even want to do anything. My sweet baby is dying and there’s nothing I can do but pray 😢
It really does put a toll on us when we experience something as delicate as this. Your baby needs you the most right now and you need to stay strong for him/her! I am sending you lots of love and positive energy you will get through it! Be kind to yourself ❤❤❤
Thank you for sharing this, my dog has had CKD since he was 8 years old. He's 12 now, and recently he was not his usual self and we went to the vet to find out his CKD levels were not good, the very next day he had a seizure and I was alone, I 100% feel you it was the scariest thing ever (i googled and found that they aren't in pain when they go through a seizure, which made me feel a tiny bit relieved). I'm so sorry for your loss! I can only imagine how you feel, and my dog is still struggling with it and fighting on. If anyone out there is watching this and reading this too, it's good to get an annual blood test to ensure their levels are in check, and also take supplements such as Renal by Candioli & Omega 3 & 6 to aid the kidneys, ensure their meals have enough moisture with high quality nutrients (not just dried kibbles, their not good enough). I work in the pet care line and I cannot emphasise how supplements are so important because dogs especially their immune system works very differently and they lick all kinds of bacteria. A lot of the issues start in the gut.
Dogs don't have a long lifespan, they really teach us a lesson before they go, and I know for a fact he had the best life with you, we can see how you care for him in just one video! Stay strong babe!!!
Thank you for the information this will help a lot of dog owners! I hope you are staying strong and taking care of yourself too! Thank you for your kind words ♥️
I can relate, my dog just died today.. a 15 years old husky... still crying my heart out
oh I am sooooo sorry for your losss! its hard its going to be hard for a few months but you will learn to accept and it will get better! He/She is in a better place! Trust the process!
Crying with you, I’m so sorry for your loss… I’m going through this nightmare right now and my heart is in pieces
My dog had an Internist. She was put on the meds. She would go for her blood and protein creatine urine test every 2 to 3 months. She was 28 days of having kidney disease for almost 7 years. She passed away at home last week. I will pray for your dog.
Our little 14 year old rescue pup is going through this right now and is scheduled to be put to sleep on Monday. She's so frail but can still go outside and down the few steps to the yard, but she can't get back up, so she just lays down. She hasn't eaten in a week so it's time to help her pass on so she doesn't suffer. She will be missed dearly. 😭
I'm sorry. Mine was 14, too, on the 21st. It's not easy, but we have to do it for them.
I had to put my baby Harley to sleep on August 27, 2020 from kidney failure it was the most horrific day of my life and I will never ever recover until I meet with him when it’s my time to go in heaven! The Bible says according to your faith be at unto you and I believe with all of my heart he is waiting in heaven at the door for me! I cry every single day I miss him desperately! We put him to sleep in our bedroom on our bed where he always liked to sleep my husband and I were both right down at his face looking into his eyes petting him and talking to him and just before he fell asleep he licked both of our noses I am absolutely devastated my sweet sweet baby is not with me!! 😭😭😭😭😭😭🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Wow I really felt your pain and love when reading this! It really is so difficult losing our fur babies and just comprehending the loss on a daily basis! You will for sure meet him again and that time will come but stay strong until then Harley will be looking over you ♥️ thank you so much for sharing this on my page as it definitely helps others that are going through this right now. It’s comforting in some way knowing that we aren’t the only ones going through it ♥️ RIP Harley
@@ajdropss thank you so much! I have never had any pain like this pain and I am 58 years old I’ve been through a lot. Praise God that we have such an amazing father! It is the only thing that saves me from this Nightmare, knowing that I will see him again and be with him forever with our Lord Jesus Christ! God bless you!
my heart breaks with you as we experienced the same
@@HRMapuan May God bless and keep you until you can meet your baby again. It is devastating but somehow God will bring us through! Sending love to you❤️❤️
@@MJYouAreNotAlone1 do you believe that if you don’t let go of them, they will stay. sounds crazy but we’re feeling the signs as we kept all her stuff in place as if she never was gone.
Hi, I'm in awe on how strong you are for telling your story, know that your baby love you and is happy crossing the rainbow bridge, Our chihuahua "kendra" who is our family's entire world and is 10 years old right now was diagnosed with kidney diseas back in 2020, it broke our hearts knowing we must be more strict/careful with her food from that on and her diet consists of only Royal Canin Renal dog food (Wet/Loaf Type) and some chiken, she is a very picky eater and without monitoring/forcing she would just ignore and leave, Four days ago she suddenly got very weak and we brought her to the vet for checkup, we got the meds and its been 4 days now and she's still very lethargic, I'm so depressed right now.
I’m so sorry about your baby. Lola my chihuahua has kidney disease too and a picky eater. It’s hard dealing with all this and we just want them to get better. We want them to eat and be happy again and it doesn’t seem possibly for my little lola. Sending love your way
@@popaki9484 Hi, apologies for my english, its not my first language, I'm fully sending my love your way on yourr furbaby's heallth, Unfortunately our baby kendra just crossed the rainbow bridge last April 24th 2023, it was a sudden she was doing fine then as we went for a walk that's where she gave out, it hurts but relived as well because I know she is pain free now, and we know we fought to the very end. We had her cremated and she's got a beautiful spot on our home. I know she's runnning wherever she wants and eat whatever she wants now, and I know we will see eachother again someday. I am sending all my love to your furbaby lola.
The key you mentioned towards the end on the video is "suffering". Today, I put down my old kitty of 15 years. (not pictured on my profile) She had hyperthyroidism which caused more than one chronic condition but in the end it was her chronic kidney disease that caused her poor health. We put her down today at our local vet and it is never easy doing the `right' thing. As much as I would have wanted to keep her at home, she was suffering from pain, and was refusing to eat. Vet and I tried several meds but she lost too much weight and after three days, she was beyond recovery. My kitty was not the first to live beyond 15 yrs nor the first to be put down due to suffe from disease. I know she is in a much better place and we are grateful for her lifetime of love.
My girl passed from end stage kidney failure and seizures the week before she turned 17. She was going to start on home-based intravenous fluids when she passed suddenly. She too was pacing at nights and pressing her head against corners
I feel your pain. My 13 yr old Border Collie died from CKD-chronic kidney disease just a few days ago. I wish I had her euthanized but she died on Sunday night and there was nothing left I could do for her. She suffered greatly and it was awful. My heart is broken like yours. Thank you for sharing your experience.
I’m so sorry. How did she suffer? Did she cry out? Just trying to understand the symptoms. My heart goes out to you
She hadn't drank water for at least 2 days. She started making these small purring noises and then she began to get louder until she was crying out with yelps. It was five hours of increased pain and distress until finally she became quiet. She suffered greatly with whole body dry heaves. It was very painful.
Have your dog compassionately euthanized to avoid this. I held out too long.
Its crazy how 2 years later im hearing ur story. Im 16 and my dog is going through some of these symptoms and its looking alot like kidney failure... i dont if it is or not but hearing ur story im going to urge my mother to take him to the vet becuase i dont know what i would do without him. Thank ufor sharing your story all though its incredibly hard and we could all tell...❤
my dog was 7y diagnosed with stage 4 kidney failure, she was at the vet many days for fluids, she was doing better sometimes for days and even for 2 months . The last time she spend 4 days on fluids at the vet, she was great , eating normal, no vomiting or diarrhea and the next day she could not walk anymore !! I called the vet and i had to put her to sleep this Tuesday.
what is the creatinine and BUN levels of ur dog while she passed away? And How many days it Survived from the day of diagnosis?
her blood test showed everything normal 4 months ago. Then she got ear infection and vet ask me to take another blood test. Vet called me her results Crea 418 Urea 15.6 and the rest high as well . Told me dog should be on fluids 48h . she was better but within days got worse back to vet fluids again 72h after this she was really well for around 2 months then it got worse back on fluits 48h no improvement this time extended fluids another 48h Vet called me and said the fluid therapy won't help anymore. So, after 1st diagnosed until her death around 4 months

My fur-sister (a white miniature poodle) died on August 27, 2023 (a week ago). The most difficult choice of my life was to choose to put her down, but the most selfless choice was to allow her to be free from this world and join my mother on the other side.
My fur-sister went though most of what you are stating within the last 4 days of her life. So, I didn’t lose her last Sunday, I had actually lost her like 4 days prior because she wasn’t herself anymore. The only way to be at peace was to give her everlasting life.
But the vet stated that she had kidney failure due to old age. I had family that wanted to imply that she died from other things like cancer or diabetes, but I’m at peace with what the doctor said and leaving it at that. She lived to be 12 years old, and that was all of my 20s and the first couple of years of my 30s. She was truly my mother’s second daughter.
I'm crying for you. OMG, you are so brave to share this heart breaking experience with us. Let me say that you did your absolute best for your fur baby. Words are of little comfort when going thru such a traumatic challenge. My mom had Dementia for 7 years, I cared for her and know that wretched disease well. Now, my 14 year old Yorkie is having kidney challenges. Thank you for educating me on "what I will/may " be challenged with now. GOD BLESS YOU!!💕
She was adorable. I watched your video, and i started crying as your baby reminded of my maltese who i lost almost a year ago. Beautiful video you made of her. So sorry about your loss.
You're video is so informative. I lost my baby, Sissy, on 6-30-21. She was drinking a lot of water her last two years. I knew something wasn't right but I didn't have the money to get her treated. I'm battling guilt right now. She had renal failure and she also was lethargic. And as I watch this, you are crying. I'm sorry you lost your baby. I'm broken and lost without sissy. I pray GOD helps me.
Im glad you though it was informative, when I was going through this I found very little information about this disease and thought my journey could help others somehow. You did the best you could to support your pup! ❤
You're so strong girl. Thanks for opening up and sharing your experience doll ! She lived a beautiful 13 years filled with loads of love ! 💜🙏🏽
Thank you! She truly did! ❤
Sorry for your loss and thank you for sharing this invaluable advice . I feel your pain xxx
I cried. Thank you so much for sharing. I will be going through the same journey and what you shared is immensely helpful.
Man! Going thru it two years after this video. Didn't appreciate my dog until he declined. Thanx for the content! Tryin sum stuff to see if he can survive. These events are truly hard to deal with💯
My sweet 9.5 yr old sharpei Allie is dying from kidney failure as I watch this. It’s heart breaking…she is at my feet wrapped in blankets trying to sleep. She has not gotten to point of seizures but is in stage 4. I know I have to make the decision this week. It sucks. My husband just lost his dad 4 days ago and its 4 days before Thanksgiving. I’ve never been with a dog I had to put down. I don’t know how I will get through it. Thank you for this video and I’m so sorry for the loss of your little queen. She was lucky to of gotten you in this life. Allie will be on her way soon to play with her and keep her company. ❤
I am going thru it now with my dog. Thanks you for the video. You will see them on the other side. ❤RIP
Thank you for sharing a very heartfelt personal loss of your sweet adorable girl. The ending song broke me I've lost my baby last year haplessly waste away and nothing can be done... was a beautiful tribute in her memory of her life and the love you shared never dies. You did well !! Much respect and condolences to you 🌬❤🙏💐
We just got the news from the vet and we're going through this now. Your video helped me process the news. Thank you.
I hope you’re feeling better from this post. I just saw it. And thanks for this video because my dog and I is going through the same thing and it really helps to know what to expect. ❤
I feel for everybody on here and know your pain, my beautiful choc lab Lola took her last breath 3 hours ago, we had the vet come to our home as she hated the vets so much, she was held by myself and two of my daughters surrounded by love, she was diagnosed at xmas with kidney disease, at least she had a long happy life as would have been 16 in two days time.
It's been just over 2 weeks. I still cry. My other dog misses her and cries to me at night asking, "Where is she? It's hell. I wish you the best and know the pain..
I am dealing with this right now with my angel girl. She is almost 14 and also has Addison’s and heart failure. Now kidney disease. I am heartbroken but tomorrow she may cross the rainbow bridge. This is soooo heartbreaking
So sorry for your loss. I'm going through the same thing, and she is 17 she's slowly going downhill. It is hard to say goodbye. This helps a lot😢❤
I am so sorry for the loss of your fur baby. We are going thru kidney failure with our yorkiepoo. It is heart breaking. We know our baby’s time is getting short. I feel so bad for you and your husband.
It is very heartbreaking! I am so sorry that you are going through this! enjoy your final moments with your baby!!!! as hard as it is you will get through this! ❤
So hard to say goodbye....Thanks for your strength to share
Thank you so much for sharing your journey. I am sitting here crying because my 14 year old has kidney problems and this is a video I needed to see - it’s so very difficult to watch our beautiful animals suffer with this terrible disease. I’m very sorry for your loss and thank you again for making a difference in someone else’s life ,just by sharing your dog’s story…
I am so sorry for your loss...
Thank you for sharing your story and your lovely dog Teddy with us. I am so sorry for your loss. I lost my bull lurcher to stage 3 kidney failure on 16 April 2021 we had to make the hard decision to say goodbye. Our dog was very old we think about 15 he was a stray and chose us as his parents. We had the pleasure of loving him for 8.5 years. He was the most beautiful dog ever. He was only diagnosed with kf 3 weeks before he passed but we are so pleased at least he got to old age. I am so pleased that Teddy lived to a good age too. “Don’t cry because it’s over, smile because it happened”. Run free Simba my beautiful gentle “big lad” xxxx
I am sooo sorry for your loss as well! thank you for your kind words! You've been blessed with 15 years! May he rest in peace and watch over you until you meet again ❤
@@ajdropss thank you AJ it is not easy but they are in a wonderful place now and will wait for us until we meet again. Take care Amanda xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
I’m sorry for your loss, and thank you for sharing your experience!
Today, my dog was diagnosed with kidney failure, and the thought of losing her makes me so sad. I don’t even want to imagine what you went through 🥺
Its really sad and hard for us to believe that it could be an outcome! Be aggressive with those treatments and electrolytes and hopefully she responds to them well I wish you the best of luck on this journey just remember to enjoy every bit of time you have with your pup! ❤
Sorry for you lost .. my dog just recently passed so I completely understand how you feel … my big ole puppy 🐶 has been there thru the good and bad .. think and thin.. 13 years .. was there threw a my divorce .. me starting my first business .. late nights working .. new relationships … a new child … a pandemic …opening a second business… every moment I was sick or down .. she was right there with me… it sad but the last three days I made as comfortable as possible … told her how much she will be missed and loved 100 times and was there for that last moment … I hope she knows I miss her…this is my first, only and last pet so i appreciate you sharing you experience…
So sorry for your loss.
Thank you so much for sharing your story. I am in the same situation now with my 15 year old Lhasa apso. Tomorrow is the day we'll let him sleep. Decided to do it at home where he's most comfortable. I'm so heart broken hope I'll have the same strength as you tomorrow.
I’m so sorry you have to experience this! It’s not easy but with love and support you will be able to get through it! Stay strong ♥️
Sorry for your loss!!! My dad died from kidney failure on 9th October 2022
Thanks for sharing and so sorry for you loss 😢
I cried this whole video i loss my shih tzu poddle last month from kidny failure and other complications. She made it to 17. I love the videos of your sweet baby girl.
We are going thru this now. Thank you for posting but very sorry that you could post this.
My 11 year old dog just passed away Saturday. He had diabetes and we were treating it with insulin. He then started getting worse and we decided it was time to say goodbye so we were going to call the vet at 8am so we could get it done at home but he passed away at 5:40am. It was the worse seeing his body shutting down. I felt hopeless. I cried seeing him in so much pain. I wish I had more time with him. I miss him so much and my heart aches 😢
Wow I can imagine how painful that must have felt. I am so sorry for your loss, just remember you did all you could to help your fur baby. He is resting well now. Stay strong and thank you for sharing ❤
Your crying is NOT awkward. I’m a 51 year old man who walks around listening to death metal music like a “tough guy”. Let me tell you I have been crying at home, at work, I’m my car, pretty much everywhere. I’m barely eating and barely sleeping. My yorkie, coco, an 11 year old male, was slowing down a bit but other than that fine. He pushed open our bedroom door this past Mother’s Day with his nose like he always does and my wife and I noticed blood drops on the floor coming from the right side of his face. There was an abscess under his hair that cut open when he opened the door (he has been opening the doors like that for years). It was a Sunday, regular vet closed, so we took him to the emergency vet. I walked him before we went. He was walking/running fine. Barking at everything in sight like usual. Hospital said it was an abscess due to a tooth infection. They shaved around the abscess, drained it, called me and said all is well and are going to give me medication for the pain and infection, and I can pick him up. Not 5 minutes later, EVERYTHING changed. They called me back, saying “we just checked your dogs blood and the level is very high indicating dehydration, possibly from kidney disease. Im thinking “why did they tell me all is well BEFORE checking his blood?” Now they sent him home with other medications. Gabapentin, however it’s spelled being one and the other n medicine I can’t recall the name. Both in liquid form. Got home. Started the medication that night. Keep in mind he was walking FINE that day.by the following morning he could barely even stand up, let alone walk. I then took him to our regular vet the next day. They think it’s stage 2 or 3 kidney disease. He seems comfortable, but shakes a lot when he is awake. Bringing him for more testing tomorrow. What the hell?????
mate the medication probably caused the kidney issues
I just lost my 16 Year old Mini Poodle Bitzy to Kidney Failure on August 3rd , she was in pain and I couldn’t stand to see her like that any longer so we had to say goodbye💔 … had her since I was 8 , I am 24 now and she has left a hole in my heart that will never heal …. Bitzy and Teddy are in Puppy heaven, because that’s where they belong .. Little Angels 💕
Awh reading this I felt your pain, i hope the two of them do get to meet up there! My heart hurts for the both of us girl stay strong you will get through this ❤
I’m very sorry for your loss, I found your video after frantically looking for anything I could do to help my 12 year old Chihuahua. I took him to my vet after he was vomiting up almost every meal he ate and he was just not the same playful little dog. He had no energy and just wanted to sleep.
He lost his appetite for his food all his favorite treats. His blood tests show Bun of 58.6 mmol/L and Creatinine of 926 mmol/L.
Today is his first day in the hospital for aggressive Iv fluid treatment but I’m not sure he will pull through as he was eating very little before I brought him in. I’m praying that I can at least get a few more weeks or months with him before I too say goodbye. Thank you for being brave enough to share your painful experience. I don’t think I could do it without falling apart.
Thank you so much for sharing your story! I’m so glad you found my video helpful! I hope your dog makes it please keep me updated! I find this therapeutic and a safe space I wish he is as comfortable as can be! ♥️
@luvdirt OMG my dog is going through the same thing 😓 how is your dog ?
Thank you for sharing your baby's journey. I ambheart broken hearing your story because my own furbaby was recently diagnosed with stage 2 CKD and no one ever discusses how the progression of the disease will be. I guess they dont want to worry me but knowing in advance, although it does make me extremely sad, it also calms me because i feel like we can prepare for the worst now the best that we can. If i didn't know in advance and my baby started having seizure, i think i might have a panic attack while watching it. But now, that i am warned, i am hoping i won't. Hoping 🤞. Ps. My vet said it could also be hereditary in older dogs. My only prayer to God is to let her go peacefully in her sleep and to not make it so bad that i have to be the one to make the decision. That is so much harder on me.
Thank you for sharing. I'm so sorry for what you went through. It sounds like you were an awesome dog Mama. Our 12 year old dog was recently diagnosed with kidney failure. I haven't experienced this before. So didn't know how the disease progresses, what the signs are that say Goodbye is immanent. Thank you for this! Hugs
I am so sorry you had to go through this. My dog just got diagnosed 3 weeks ago. I am devastated. My dog has pancreatitis so I can’t put her on Kd food. I will be praying for you.
I am currently undergoing this crisis, my son’s health is deteriorating.. he’s a 10 Rottweiler. inshAllah he’ll get better
I’m so sorry for your loss! Heartbreaking 💔
We just found out our black lab mix has stage 2 kidney disease. She just turned 11😢😢
My Poosh is 16 and starting to have kidney problems. Not looking forward to this, but will keep doing everything to make her happy. Thanks for sharing.
Go to an Internist. My dog's Internist keep her alive with kidney disease for 28 days short of 7 years.
lost my little Shih Tzu from chronic kidney disease such a horrible thing. your little girl was beautiful x
I understand your pain....I had a dog who accidentally ate a raisin and a month later died of kidney failure! it was so horrendous....our vet couldnt come to put him down whem we needed him to because our vet had covid at the time when we tried to call him.....we had to let him suffer and die. it was aweful, but thankfully it was only one long night and he passed early in the am. such a heart wrencing disease, especially if it goes acute before you know what is happening....we live rural and had just been in to see the vet and found out he had failing kidneys, a week later he was losing his life in spite of antibiotics and fluids....the timing of our vet getting sick was terrible.....raisins and grapes are straight up poison to dogs. no joke. I am sorry for your loss.
Im so sorry for your loss, I am watching with video and I am giving fuilds to my 12 year old Snicker, trying to figure out how much time I have left with him, thank you for your video. GOD BLESS YOU.
Cherish every moment you have! I’m sending you lots of love and hugs stay strong through this journey it’s gunna be a tough one ♥️
I'm so sorry for your loss and pain. We are that the same crossroad right now so I feel your pain. What started off as parasites then a urinary infection and then a infection on prostate an it seems that no matter what type of antibiotics we are giving him have worked in removing the mass on his prostate or the infection in his urinary tract. Now 2 months later his kidneys are failing. We have to drain his pee everyday and give him IV's and if it doesn't get better we have to make that hard decision. I was in tears watching your video. Beautiful tribute to your furry baby.
I am so sad to hear of your loss. You are such a loving dog mom. You did your best...😊
I am currently appying holistic treatment to my dog for chronic kidney disease. I holistically reversed my terminal cancer 10 years ago, so im back on the job....i plan to reverse his kidney disease. If i succeed, i plan to write a book because there is not much help out there!
You can't reverse it but you can prolong long it.
On May 13th we lost one of our dogs, Our Beloved Angel, she was 12 years and 10 months old. She was at home surrounded by me and my siblings. It was very hard for all of us. Angel kept strong the whole way, Will truly miss her and all the love she gave us ❤️ I'm sorry for your lost, losing a pet isn't easy.
Yes this story does help, thanks for sharing. Also reading all the posts. i just had to rewrite my comment as i was here trying to write something about my dogs kidney diagnoses. My dog just passed, I still had a little hope. I’m so much shock because he was fine on monday, now he is gone. It’s
hard to loose Brownie, he was with me through many tough times, he was always reliable. Hope i get the courage to make a video, I still can’t believe it. That he is gone. Only comfort is that it was here at the home and not at a cold hospital. My dad also loves Brownie, not sure how he is going to take it. I’m not telling him till the morning, But i know he is going to take it really badly. I’m still in shock.
Awh no I’m soooo sorry for your loss! The pain is nothing else I know how you’re feeling and it will get better! It is shocking when they are there one day and you walk into you’re home and they are no longer there and just left with memories 😢 sending you lots of love for you and your family 💕
My dog had Kidney Disease for almost 7 years. She died yesterday of stage 4 Kidney failure.,so sorry for your loss.❤❤❤❤❤
Omg 😢 mines died Friday Oct 20 I had to put him down I have never been so hurt in my life
@@kimlee399 I'm so sorry for you loss. A pet is a part of your family.
@@kimlee399 I'm so sorry for your loss. Thank you for your kind words.
@@BeeApple-sr3db thank you sweetie I had him for 11 years 🥲
@@BeeApple-sr3dbwhat is her creatinine and BUN levels?
Going through this now. Bless you.
Thank you for sharing your story. I had to let go of my 10 yr old mini doxie today due to kidney failure. She had chronic uti’s which I think led to ckd. Too many dogs with kidney disease
Im going through this rn... my baby girl has been in intensive fluid therapy, she only eats when we feed her and most of the time doesn't want the food so she has to be forced fed, then she throws up. As she mentions, she has happy periods but it follows with her losing her breath really fast. This is so heart breaking. We suspect she drank water contaminated with bacteria, and just caught it too late. She is just a year old, she had so many more places to see, beach trips, parks to run and play in, hikes to go on. It is just not fair :(
Thanks for the video, I know what I am going to face.
I have shi tzu too, and recently diagnosed kidney failure too. The doctor instantly suggest me to go for euthanasia, but my dog's condition still pretty early, I don't think it's time to give him up.
I hope you can get better, it's so hard. I understand.
I had to make the decision 2 days ago I forgot what they said but 67% of something was in his blood due to the kidney failure and he was also diabetic so he was suffering. I'm heartbroken 💔
@@reecec2265 did you baby cry out when in pain?
@@popaki9484 they don't always cry out. They suffer in silence as well.
My sweetheart had 1 week from diagnosis to death. It was so fast.
Sweetest guy. I love him and miss him. He wouldn't eat then drink.
If I knew how fast this was I would have him euthanized sooner than later. It was horrible towards the end. Thank you for this video it helped so much.
I’m so sorry hun!!!! My heart goes out to you. I know the pain too well. My 17 year old chihuahua was just diagnosed this month with the same however the vet totally missed he was also anemic. Luckily his cardiologist caught it. His kidney failure was brought upon by his arthritis medication called metacam or meloxcam. I must ask, was your baby on any medication, flea/tick treatment? Because these are known to cause kidney and liver failure. I’m surprised the doctor didn’t recommend or put her on renal food as well as aluminum hydroxide which helps flush out the toxins such as phosphorus from the kidneys. The aluminum hydroxide is a binder that aids in this overall treatment. My baby is on fluids twice a week and I’ve got his anemia under control as it was causing him to have respiratory distress. I still can’t believe the vet missed it. I know your baby is in heaven but I do hope this information is helpful should you be blessed with another furbaby. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
.. GOD-BLESS "TEDDY" .. I Know How Much You Loved Her .. So Sorry That You Had To Say "Good-Bye" .. That Is Such A Devastating Decision To Have To Make .. One Question.....Did Your Veterinarian Regularly Check "Blood-Pressure" in Teddy...? .. 3-weeks-ago I was taking some of my older-dogs to my Veterinarian, to get their Blood-Pressures checked, and on that day my 8-year-old dog "Goodie-Good" began vomiting, so I included her in our trip to the Vet to get her examined, and to get her Blood-Pressure checked, too.......She had a full, annual exam, with a Full-Panel Blood Test, and I asked my Vet to check her "Blood-Pressure", and sure enough, the Blood-Test showed that her Kidney Values were Super-High, way out of normal, and her "Blood-Pressure" was Very-High at ..( 205-over-150 )....The High-Blood-Pressure was destroying her Kidneys .. I had never asked to have her Blood-Pressure checked, and I am So-Sorry that I never had this done during her annual exams.....I just did not think of it, and my Veterinarian never suggested it....I am treating my dog at home with IV-Fluids, and with Sub-Q-Fluids, hoping that her Kidneys are still "salvageable" and that she will live for another year, or more ... Best To You ...."Teddy" was lucky to have You.
The vet told us today that our dog, Alamo, doesn’t have much longer to live. He has kidney failure. He is everything to us.
🥺 I’m so sorry you’re going through this it’s tough stay strong and make it as comfortable as you can for your dog 💕
I’m going through exactly same crap now… my heart is so broken😢…. My dog is my baby and my only daughter. This is too much pain for me to force her eat and drink and give her fluid every day… seeing her suffer is just so unbearable… thanks for sharing
I am grieving just as you are.
I am sorry for your Loss
I wish I could give you a hug right now. My dog passed on 1/21/21 at approximately 12:11 am. She had several seizures which I think were a result of her kidneys and other organs failing. The moment I asked her to hang on and laid my hands on her, she took her last breath. She was 14.5 years old. YOU ARE NOT ALONE. If you want to reach out to for support, I'm here. Just let me know ❤❤
Girl virtual hugs all the way! I’m soooo incredibly sorry for your loss. It’s so tough to see our babies go through it! You’ve been blessed with 14.5 years with your baby. Thank you so much for showing some love on my channel ♥️♥️♥️
@@ajdropss Thank you so much and you are welcome!
I’m sorry for you lost.
Rest in peace Teddy!!!
Thank you ♥️🙏🏽
I just put my dog down today. My dog was diagnosed with first acute kidney failure, then chronic kidney failure then cancer then xrays shows the lungs doing poorly and he was so weak he dropped 20 pounds within a week he whimpered trying to get up. I just couldnt let him live like that anymore i spent almost 4,000 dollars trying to save him. He was my best friend and my family. RIP Dax. I plan to creamate him and also put his dog tags into a necklace. Btw i have no idea how he got sick i started to notice him getting strange this past 3 weeks 11/5/23 till 11/24/23. He was only 3yrs old and 11 months nearly 4 yrs old. Thats to young. It hurts so much for me and my kids. They were suppose to move out / grow up then the dog slowly passes but nothing like this and how hard it hit him. ❤love you dax rather it be me then him anyday.
Bless you I am experiencing the same Pain.
This was very helpful...I am going this this right now with my lil Sasha...I am so heartbroken.
I’m so sorry you’re going through this it’s tough it really is you’ll get through this and stay strong for your baby sending you lots of love 💕
I have a dog, 13 year old border collie mix, who recently got diagnosed with kidney failure. She's currently doing really well, and it hasn't been going on for long. As I got her tested for it in late February or early March this year, and the test came back negative back then, but early stage in November. I'm scared of how it'll go, further down the line, but I just hope she passesof natural causes before it gets bad. I don't want her to experience it, but I don't want to be the one ending her life too soon if she's still got life in her.
We changed her diet, gives her supplements, and I'm doing so much research regarding the disease. Our dogs deserve the best.
Also, while I did research, I found out that bad diet can be traced back from kidney failure. It's not been done enough research on as for now tho, but dry, low quality food can be the cause. In zoo's, they've found out why captive big cats get kidney failure, when those in the wild don't. Big cats in zoos get fed more often than those in the wild.
So they've started testing if that theory is correct, by zoos feeding them fewer times, but with big meals, like they do in the wild. Gonna take a few years to see if it's correct, but if they suspect the feeding schedule is the reason, it's not far off for people to think it's the same for our house cats and dogs.
Today my GSD died because of Kidney Failure. He was very loyal and friendly. We always miss you Ballu.
Mine was 14. Same exact symptoms. She died in my arms. I don't feel ok and I don't know what to do now. But she is not in pain anymore. That matters to me more than my broken heart
My dog baby of 11 years I had him since he was 2 months passed away of kidney failure on Friday it hurts me that the vets wouldn’t even treat without 1000s of dollars which I did spend the money and he still died I’m so deeply hurt he started showing symptoms in September 7 and I started carrying him to the doctor back and forth because he wouldn’t eat and had so many symptoms even trouble walking and I’m so sad I didn’t know he was gonna die a month and half later he declined quickly 😢and he died Friday Oct 20 2023 I had to put him down people who aren’t dog owners won’t understand this is the worst pain I ever felt
Awww just found out my baby shitzu has kidney failure do sorry for your loss
My dog died last night from a neck brake I miss her so much it’s hard to think about crying we only got her for 3 months😢
You made me cry so hard I'am so sorry you went through this. She was so lucky to have you as her mom she was so loved. I'am going through this now with my chihuahua and I'am so thankful that you put this video out so I know what to expect. It's going to be one of the hardest thing to go through in my life because my dog saved mine. I will let her go as soon as I see her suffering in any way that is the least I can do for her. Thank you again and God bless you.❤
Sorry for your lose. I have a little shihtzu. She was diagnosed with heart issues in Dec 2019, medication it puts a toll on dog kidneys. I did use Kidney Gold from Petwellbeing. And I did not give it to for a month to treat her kidneys stones. But it made her kidney numbers go up. And I feel so bad and stupid for stopping those supplements. My dog is such in bad shape right now. I'm making the decision to put her down soon. Its so horrible to try to keep your babies alive, I'm syringe feeding her but she is not happy about it. Your dog was so cute. Shih tzu's are the best.
I can so relate to this! Honestly when I was going through this with Teddy it had to be trial and error we had to make the right judgement call and not all of them worked in our favor although we have the right intentions to only help them. There has been plenty of times where I was beating myself up for not thinking of this idea sooner or wishing we never gave her this type of medication... but we are only human and we tried so hard and our fur babies fought hard too! You did the best you can! ❤
@@ajdropss yeah its was hard. My little girl passed away in my house before I could put her to sleep. Felt really bad about that. But she lived a very happy spoiled life. Now she is in heaven waiting for me.
I had to let my wee chihuahua Daisy go 3 weeks ago due to kidney failure.
She was just shy of her 16th birthday.
It happened so fast.
I miss her so much! 😢xx
