We all understand and are praying for you. I am not a big fan of Rimadyl..about a month ago our Shih Tzu Maxie hurt his back(Shih Tzu’s are prone to back issues) and he was screaming so my sis took him to the ER and the Vet gave him Rimadyl..two days later he got an ulcer from it and had bleeding so they had to flush the stuff from his system. Normally the stuff works fine but some dogs can have really bad reactions from it. When I read that Halla took that drug I remembered it right away

I -hate- Rimadyl but the vet I trust with my dogs’ lives totally said that it was necessary if she had a head injury and gave us the smallest useful dose possible.

Rimadyl killed one of my dogs and he knows how much I despise it but said this time, use it.

Normally, he doesn’t even suggest it.
