I can tell by your posts that your girl is super special to you guys. Please keep us in touch with what you find out and how she is doing. I understand what you are going through, it's so tough at this age.
My sister in law has a 14, almost 15yo Siberian Husky. Same sort of thing, breaks my heart. Good luck, will be thinking of you.

Like MollyWoppy says, please do keep us posted as you learn more. I fine needle aspirate is no big deal and should be done as soon as you can. Our vet did one so quickly on our girl she nor I even realied it was happening. It was a relief to know the outcome quickly. Now that you are dealing with the shock of the cardiac news you are armed to go in and ask the vet to handle this teat situation, and demand more cardiac info. At this age things are so difficult, been there, more times than I like to remember. Remember all you can ever do is your best for her, and that's what you have been doing. We will wait for further updates and will be keeping you all in our thoughts.

Hi all,just got back from vet,the teat started draining last night and went down alot and he said that was very good and changed her anti-biotic.Vet said he is sure that it will clear up since it has started draining and to try and keep it clean and apply a very warm clean cloth a few times a day.As for her heart he said it is responding to meds and sounds alot better also and that her condition with her heart is due to her age.So she is stable now and she is doing great,and if the teat doesnt indeed clear all the way up he said he will aspirate and look into it,but he did sound pretty confident that she will be fine.So,i will do my part and take the best care of her as always,so i really enjoyed some good news for a change,and we thank you all also.I will let you all know how things go,time for me to take a break,whew.

Awesome news. I was sort of nervous to read your update, so to hear that she is doing so well was just lovely. Thanks for the update, I'm so happy the old girl is hanging in there and in good health. :)

Our girl went to get off couch and she has lost her balance and is barely able to get around,we went through this before and she bounced back,this is really ough,she still wags her tail at times,its breaking my heart.We called vet and he said to continue her meds,and than he said the girl is just up there in age and all.So,i am by her side and i gotta go,will write more later,pray for us please....

Im sure this is whats called vestibular syndrom,she went through this the same time last year,same month and everything.I hand to hand feed her tonight and will use the baby type syringe to help her with fluids,she is just so so off balance,last year she was back in shape in a few days,so we are praying she gets through this time pretty comfortably.Thank you all for your support,gotta take care of our baby so talk to you all soon.

Good luck, hope that is what it is and she's back up and on her feet soon. I know she is more than worth it, but she really is a lucky pup to have you guys as owners. Please do let us know how she goes....
