I just watched that a couple days ago. Definately worth watching.

Whoa - that post needs a warning. Can you put those pictures in a spoiler or something please.

Sorry... Not sure I know how to do that from my phone. I can try when I get to a computer.

Nm, figured it out.

Good grief.
Well goodish news. I remember I had the name of a vet deep in a binder for when I first got out here and had the dog. I never went to him as he is down 35 miles of hard dirt deep country roads and in the wrong direction.
But by chance I called him. He said 'that all you need?' can you be here at 1230? UM YA.
So $30 later paca has the NSAID shot in his hip.
I'll give him a bit to work it in and they we'll see if we can get him UP on his feet. ugh.
Wormer for all later and as long as we're doing it. I may as well do the birds too.
sunny and 60! here at the moment. Insane.

What great news! Hope this turns it around for him..do you not wonder at this weather we are having? It's a little frightening thinking what must really be coming in February. It's crazy. But, I am enjoying it!

We're doing that already plus Vit B. The anti-inflammatory is script only and vets here either aren't large animal vets, so they won't write it. OR they are large animal vets, but won't write it as they don't do alpacas OR they are large animal vets, but won't write it as they have never seen me before/not a client, but they don't do alpacas so why would I have been a client. OMG it's insane.

make sure vitamin b complex contain b12.

can you get a human doctor prescribe you anti inflammatory medicine? that's what we do here. human pills are for about 60 kg of body weight (132 lb) so you can figure out the dosage.

The Dr. you showed in the video has been doing allot of advertising in the TV of late.
I do not have opinion on him. Allot of old folks like me have to be a little more dog home type.

I have some barley I am going to sprout for them.

Barley in a terra cotta saucer, sitting in a pie pan with water.

Nice root pad! I tore the whole thing into chunks and the chickens loved the whole thing.

He's still with us. DH and I rolled him 20 feet uphill to get him on the outdoor rug under the barn wings. Rain and sleet coming tomorrow. I let him rest the remainder of the night. This morning I gave him all his meds and let him rest until lunch.
At lunch, I put him in his sitting position and put a bale of straw each side of him to try to keep him from rolling back on his side. He grumbled about the whole process.
We still cannot get him on his feet.
He ate a bunch of his cookie bits and some hay, and since I've been keeping his water at the brim for measuring and keep having to refill it, I think he's drinking too.
There's really nothing else I CAN do. Sigh.
Tonight I'll toss a horse blanket over his straw crib and help keep any stray rain off him.
