When she was 6 months old, she was spayed. About a week later, she became lethargic. I took her back to the vet, fearing an infection. He treated her with ampicillan. Anfew days after that, she started developing neurological symptoms, i.e. walking on the top of her right, front paw. I immeidately took her back to the vet, He placed her on a steroid and Bactrin, She improved, but her symptoms worsened when weaned from the steroid. She was falling, lost the sight in her right eye, was walking on her paw, and seemed to have generalized right sided weakness. He referred her to a neurologist, who did a spinal tap, which showed a virus.-unspecified. The treatment changed to high doses of Batril, Ammoxocillan and steroid. Her condition has improved somewhat, but not a great deal. She is no longer faling or walking on her paw, and has reagained some sight, but since being weaned from the Bactrin, is now rounding. This has been going on two weeks now. We have raised the steriod to 40 mgs twice a day. With very little improvement. We have considered more Batril,, The original vet has now found another dog that developed similiar symptoms, and wha was in the hosptial at the same time. Any ideas? suggestions? she is only a baby,... I have a 11 month olf bloodhound. When she was 6 months old, she was spayed. About a week later, she became lethargic.
