Hi Amy,
Coal is a very good looking girl! I might be a bit biased:) I am confident she will continue on this path and get back to her healthy and happy puppy life!
Best wishes,
Brigitte and the poodle boys Ripley and Enzo

Just testing this if it works here.

I am here reading this because my little 4 month old dachshund puppy was just diagnosed with this last night. He is still in the hospital getting a blood transfusion. My husband and i are sick over this and we just are searching everywhere who in the world he got this. I have holding hope that he will survive this horrible disease. My internal medicine vet said it is so rare to see in such a young pup. I pray he will survive and be back to the sweetest little puppy. His name is Elvis.

[Amy]

Terri I am so sorry you had to join us here. If it is any help to you at all, Coal is alive and very well. She is thriving despite this horrible event. I will put your family and Elvis in my prayers. Everyone here has been wonderful to me and so supportive. They are a wealth of information and you should feel free to bug them with a million questions. There is always someone here that is willing to answer and if they don’t have one they will find one for you. Please do not hesitate to call the vet as much as you feel is necessary and go often and spend sone time with your sweet pup once his transfusion is done. Much Love From Amy and Coal!

Hi Terri

So glad you’ve found us, but I’m sorry this is happening to little Elvis. Ask anything, anytime. You are probably stressed out to the max with this, understandably. I don’t think any of us knew much, or even heard of
this disease.

Amy has had this dreadful & very rare experience with her pup too & I know you will get massive support from her – and from everyone else on here. Please read through everything that has happened to Coal – I’m sure you will get a lot of comfort & information from Amy’s story.

Your pup has the huge advantage of being a tough youngster too. Can you tell us more about what happened & what medications plus doses – anything you think may be relevant. The more information the better.

If you can upload any blood tests, lab tests, x-ray results, ultrasound info to the Urgent Advice area

we will try to help as much as we can.

Please let us know how your baby is doing – is she with a specialist? In a vet hospital? Transfusions are wonderful things which help our pets get through the early stages until the immuno-suppressant drugs start to work. Elvis will soon feel much better with a transfusion inside him. We have lots of information on here about all sorts of things – maybe a good place to start is transfusions for now:

As soon as you can, have a look at the introductory videos which explain what is happening to Elvis:

Let us know how Elvis is doing as soon as you can – I bet you can’t wait to give him a gentle cuddle.

Best wishes for his speedy recovery
