I GOT ROXY FROM IN FRONT OF TARGET WHEN SHE WAS JUST 6 WEEKS OLD. AT THE TIME WE HAD ANOTHER DOG NAMED PARADISE WHO WAS CLOSE TO DEATH. BUT THATS ANOTHER STORY. WELL ROXY WAS MY SISTERS DOG AT FIRST FOR A FEW DAYS AND I CRIED SO MUCH BECAUSE MY MOM WOULDN’T LET ME GET ONE. WELL MY SISTER GAVE HER TO ME AFTER 3 DAYS BECAUSE ROXY STARTED GETTING REALLY HYPER.
ME AND ROXY GOT REALLY CLOSE. WHEN SHE WAS TWO AND A HALF YEARS OLD WE SAW THAT SHE WAS HAVING SEZUIRES. BY THAT TIME PARADISE WAS GONE AND MY LITTLE SISTER GOT A ROTTWEILER NAMED JESSIE. WELL EVERYTIME ROXY HAD A SEZUIRE JESSIE WOULD ATTACK HER TRYING TO GET HER TO STOP. SHE HAD TO GO T OTHE VETS TWICE TO GET STICHES BECAUSE JESSIE TORE HER SKIN TO THE BONE.
WHEN SHE CAME HOME THE SECOND TIME WE LEARNED JESSIE HAD TO BE AN ONLY DOG SO WE FOUND HER A HOME. BUT ROXY’S CASE IS STILL ANNOYING US. SO LAST YEAR WE TOOK HER TO A GREAT ANIMAL HOSPITAL WHERE THEY TOOK BLOOD TO SEE WHY SHE WAS HAVING SEZUIRES ALL THE TIME. THIS IS BEGINNING TO COST UP TO A THOUSAND DOLLARS WHICH MY PARENTS DIDN’T HAVE AT THE TIME. WE FOUND OUT ABOUT A WEEK LATER THAT SHE HAD EPILEPSY. WHICH I KNEW NOTHING ABOUT SO I THOUGHT SHE WAS GOING TO DIE IN THE NEXT 48 HOURS. THANK GOD SHE DIDNT.
WELL NOW EVERYDAY SHE HAS TO TAKE TWO PILLS CALLED PHENOBARBITAL FOR THE REST OF HER LIFE. I’VE HEARD FROM SOME VETS THAT IF YOUR PET, DOG, CAT, HORSE, PIG,ETC. HAS EPILEPSY IT WILL SHORTEN THEIR LIVES BY 3 YEARS. ROXYS THREE YEARS OLD RIGHT NOW AND TAKING HER MEDICATION AND I LOVE HER WITH ALL MY HEART. SHE MAY BE WILD AND CRAZY BUT I’M GOING TO DO ALL I CAN TO MAKE THE REST OF HER LIFE THE BEST. I’M TELLING YOU NOW THOUGH IF YOUR ANIMAL STARTS TO HAVE SEZIURES DONT WAIT AS LONG AS I DID.(3 MONTHS) TO GET THEM CHECKED OUT. GET IT DONE RIGHT AWAY AND START THEM ON THERE WAY TO HELP AND HOPEFULLY A LONGER LIFE.
I KNOW HOW IT FEELS FOR THOSE OF YOU SUFFERING I HAVE BEEN THROUGH IT TO MANY TIMES IN 15 YEARS. JUST REMEMBER GET HELP ASAP, AND MAKE SURE YOUR PETS ARE SAFE FROM HARMS WAY EVEN IF IT MEANS TIEING THEM UP OR KEEPING THEM INDOORS. ITS BETTER TO BE SAFE THEN SORRY. THIS WEBSITE REALLY HELPS ME OUT.

LOVE ALWAYS AND 4 EVER
