reggie still not eating, not even his beloved rotisserie chicken :(

Tibs, have you tried feeding Reggie some white rice with plain chicken breast shredded and mixed in the rice?

Or try some bland canned dog food mixed with rice.

When one of our GSD's had cancer he refused his normal foods. He did eat shredded chicken and rice and also some bland canned food.

You can purchase bland canned dog food at Walmart or any vet's office. Hopefully you have one nearby. If you go the canned food route mix it in with rice. 70% rice and 30% canned so as not to upset his tummy.

Hopefully Reggie is drinking water. You don't want him getting dehydrated. Is there a loss of moisture in his gums? Check his skin, does it have its normal elasticity? Is his nose dry? If yes to any of those he needs water.

thanks, smt, according to the vet we've had miracles in the past. not looking that way this time :(
he's been in congestive heart failure with bronchial involvement and his trachea is collapsing more and more.
I'm sorry to hear that Tibs. :(

Much love to Reggie. :wub:

@tiburonfirst . . .

My Sincerest Condolences on the death of "Reggie" . . . IMHO (Having to go through the same illnesses) - You both were very lucky to have each other, especially during this recent transition. . .

Good Vibes & Positive Thoughts . . .
