Very bad night!! No gas,still having soft stools but he woke us up at2a.m.and he was paralyzed. He was dragging his upper body and could not walk. Did not seem to be any pain so put him in bed and slept till 7 a.m He still could not walk then around 8 a.m he started walking with a limp. Took him to the vet at 9 a.m did 4dx test and it was negative. In house blood work showed everything normal. Sent off blood also will get results tomorrow.Started to give him tylosol(antibiotic) but I declined so he told me to give him his chicken and rice for a few days and gradual start adding his food to this. To use yogurt,digestive enzymes and probiotic which I already do. Said it might be a seizure of some kind. Basically he did not know. I don’t know what kind of food to start him with. I don’t want anymore canned merrick going back with kibble and canned. What kind should I try?don’t want real high protein,fat, or carbs. He was on hk too but I don’t want that either. I associate the canned and dehydrated with his sickness. He was ok until I started switching his food around. Does anyone know what could have caused this paralysis. He has never been sick before and he’s 5 years old.any thoughts on this would be appreciated.
