that's fantastic news!  I hope that it's a full recovery for her.  This is exactly how Jarv recovers from his near death stomach upsets - it's almost like a miracle  (...I'm hoping that's all it was for her :luv: the last Jarvis had he couldn't/wouldn't walk for a few hours and I thought he'd been poisoned he went down so quickly  ph34r )

I was thinking this morning that it could be weakness from her tummy upset but when she had colitis as a pup she would poop more than that and be fine so I kind of ruled that out, but now you say that.....

Im wondering when the specialist mentioned poly arthritis whether he is clutching at straws although I do have every faith in them. Im confused.  :-\

I called them again at 9 to see how she was doing and she said she was 'quite perky'

Imagine if I have rushed her to a referral centre and its only a bloody tummy bug!! I would be relieved if it were that though. Its just weird as she was holding her head and neck exactly how she was last June when she had the meningitis. Lying with her head right back. And why the resistance when the specialist moved her neck unless she remembers it from last time?

So happy for you that Willow seems to be feeling a lot better.

Enjoy your lie in tomorrow, but I hope, in the nicest possible way, that you don't get any more after tomorrow for a long time!

So Glad she's feeling so much better :) Will be keeping fingers crossed that it is just a tummy bug. If it is polyarthritis then, like DebH has said, then waxing and waning is common. Cooper walked like he was a little tin soldier when he had it, only shuffling with nose on the ground. They can have back and neck pain with it because the little joints between the vertebrae can become inflamed too. Having said that, the biggest differential diagnosis for back pain in dogs is abdominal pain, so I will be hoping with all my heart that it is just an upset tummy and that it is passing now. Hope she's home today :)
