Poppy
As you know poppy has parvovirus and is deteriorating slowly we got her from a lady under the name Trish S on Pets4Homes. I have reported her and pets4homes have banned her from ever using the site again.
No documentation was given, she told us flea and worming treatment and gave us microchip number but that was all. Poppy was at home with me for 3 days before rushing her into the Emergency Vets. We have just had a phone call from the vet who has said she will be in for at least another day or two which is so sad knowing poppy is there alone. Below is everything my little girl went through.
7/1/21 Update from the vet -
Poppy is still very lethargic and quiet. She is still being tube fed and because she’s not kept any down they are now doing very small amounts every hour straight into her intestines. They said she is still in a critical state and will probably still be in hospital for the next 2 days they have no hope for her coming coming anytime soon xx
7/1/21 2.30pm update
Sadly Poppy has deteriorated again and is now been tube fed, and also has a drain tube to try and draw away any nasties, please please keep your fingers crossed for this little one, she has a hell of a fight on her paws at the minute.
8/1/21 10.20am update
This mornings update is not so positive sadly. Poor Poppy is still not keeping anything down and they have had to increase her pain meds. Please please send your power of love and strength to her and her family right now. Come on Poppy keep fighting baby girl.
8/1/21 update 7.25pm
Poppy is currently stable has only had 3 regurgitation episodes today but lots of bloody diarrhoea throughout the day. Pain meds going straight to her veins to get into her system quicker. She has been out of her crate walking around today with her tail wagging so a bit more life in herself but still being fed 2ml every 2hrs and not keeping it all down. Fingers crossed for a successful night tonight
9/1/21 10am update
News today sounds a bit more positive. Poppy went 5-6hours without throwing up so the vet is happy that some food may have gone to her intestines. She said although she has a lot of blood in her diarrhoea she is still a pink colour she’s just still a bit sorry for herself but other than that a stable night x
9/1/21 8.10pm update
We’ve had an update from the vet this evening and it’s kind of put us in a bit of a sad space.
Although they have said Poppy is stable there is no real progress and she isn’t getting any better right now, she is still not keeping massive amounts down and she still has blood in her stools.
Come on Poppy keep fighting little one. Whilst this is not the news we hope for, I am still taking it as a small positive as she hasn't deteriorated anymore.
10/1/21 8pm update
So after and very anxious 24 hours, we have literally just had an update from the vets. They have said she doesn't look good in herself, however she is still stable and and hasn't been sick all day until just recently. We have to take this as a positive as this is the longest she has gone now with no vomiting, surely that has to be a good sign. please keep praying and keep everything crossed for her. Come on Poppy you can do this baby girl.

It is will a really heavy heart and tears falling by the bucket load that I have to let everybody know that rainbow Bridge gained the bravest puppy ever through the night. Beautiful Poppy gained her angel wings in the early hours, she put up one hell of a fight bless her but sadly her little body just wasn't strong enough. Due to Covid we couldn’t visit or say a final goodbye. Sleep tight baby girl. If love could have saved you, you would have lived furever.
