Hello again
Well, we've been to the vets and Spike had his x-ray, my vet is quite sure
that there is a mass in front of his heart, it's quite large. We've left
Spike on Rimadyl for the time being as it makes him feel better. He gets an
eighth of a 20 mg tablet twice a day, my vet suggested cutting it back to an
eighth once a day after he's been on it for a week. I was wondering whether
there is a safer alternative to Rimadyl, a well working pain killer that is
safe long term? Because Spike seems to need the painkiller every 12
hours...
Best wishes
